The San Diego Symphony will honor Leslie Hodge with tonight’s concert, dedicated to the memory of the concert pianist and former San Diego Philharmonic musical director and conductor. Hodge was 75 when he was killed in an auto accident Dec. 6. While Hodge was musical director of the Philharmonic during 1950-51, he produced San Diego’s first winter symphony season and a series of children’s concerts. The philharmonic later merged with the San Diego Symphony. Tonight’s Symphony Hall concert will include music by Brahms and Bartok and Schumann’s Concerto in A Minor for Piano and Orchestra.
