SAN FRANCISCO, May 5, 2009 -- Ever have a tune you couldn't get out of your head? The composers of the San Francisco Composers Chamber Orchestra find themselves returning to Ernesto de Curtis'sReturn to Sorrento (1902) in Return to Return to Sorrento -- on Saturday, February 20, at Old First Church -- evoking a sunny, post-El-Nino world of musical fact and fantasy from Kit Ruscoe, John Bilotta, Philip Freihofner, David Graves, Phil Lockwood, Lisa Scola Prosek, Martha Stoddard, Davide Verotta, Erling Wold, Mark Alburger and Loren Jones

The Return pieces -- a series of variations by Jones, Scola Prosek, Ruscoe, Verotta, Wold, and Alburger -- will be interwoven into a mix that will also feature Bilotta's back-to-the-future Quantum Mechanic(semi-staged in co-operation with Goat Hall Productions / San Francisco Cabaret Opera); David Graves's relatedly-apocalyptic Tickertape; Philip Freihofner and Phil Lockwood's evocative Blade of Grass; Martha Stoddard's enchanting Duo Concertante for Flute, Marimba, and Chamber Orchestra (featuring Bruce Salvisberg and Anne Szabla); Alburger's frenetic-erotic-violent Salome Suite; and Jones's adventurous Lost Plateau
