Bay Area audiences will get their first chance to hear the music of鲍比堰& Wolf Bros in its orchestral guise during an upcoming one-night appearance at Stanford University’s Frost Amphitheater.

The orchestrations are the work of Stanford’s Giancarlo Aquilanti, so the West Coast premiere, set for Oct. 29, and presented by Stanford Live, marks something of a homecoming. The evening will be performed in two 75-minute sets.

Tickets go on sale to the general public at 10 a.m. Friday, Aug. 25, athttps://live.stanford.edu.

The Grateful Dead guitarist and his band, which includes bassist Don Was, drummer Jay Lane and keyboardist Jeff Chimenti, boast an eclectic repertoire of Dead material as well as songs from Weir’s post-Dead solo career.

Since last fall, though, the group has made appearances with symphony orchestras, first the National Symphony Orchestra in Washington, D.C., and then the Atlanta Symphony.

Paul Phillips, Stanford’s Gretchen B. Kimball director of orchestral studies, is slated to lead the Stanford Symphony Orchestra.

The Wolfpack — the string and brass quintet of Alex Kelly, Brian Switzer, Adam Theis, Mads Tolling and Sheldon Brown, along with Barry Sless on pedal steel — is also expected to take part.
