  • Many Thanks to Many People by Paul R. Judy
    HarmonyTM FORUM OF THE SYMPHONY ORCHESTRA INSTITUTE NUMBER 7 • OCTOBER 1998 Many Thanks to Many People To subscribe to Harmony or provide support to the Institute, contact: Symphony Orchestra Institute 1618 Orrington Avenue, Suite 318 Evanston, IL 60201 Tel: 847.475.5001 Fax: 847.475.2460 e-mail: [email protected] www.soi.org ©1998 by the Symphony Orchestra Institute. All rights reserved. vii Many Thanks to Many People The Symphony Orchestra Institute was activated in the fall of 1995 as a catalyst for organizational change within the community of North American symphony orchestra organizations. The Institute was a new resident moving into a long- established and tightly bounded community; we were greeted with caution. As we pursued our mission and initiated early programs, we needed to build the trust of many constituencies. After three years, we believe that trust has been established, and that a groundswell of interest and enthusiasm is building in the direction of change which the Institute has fostered. The momentum of this wave arises from the breadth of involvement of many people who have helped undergird the Institute during the past three years. This is a note of thanks to all those people. The Institute’s acceptance by the leadership of other industry institutions was vital. Special personal thanks go to Brad Buckley (Saint Louis Symphony Orchestra), former chair of the International Conference of Symphony and Opera Musicians (ICSOM), his successor Robert Levine (Milwaukee Symphony Orchestra), and their colleagues on the ICSOM governing board, for the early recognition of the Institute, its independence, and its unbiased interest in better- functioning symphony organizations.

  • Superb Sibelius
    Superb Sibelius Friday, May 12 10:30am Join the BPO in welcoming back guest conductor Christopher Wilkins and presenting the Buffalo debut of British pianist Mark Bebbington! Sibelius’ grand Symphony No. 2 forms the centerpiece of this program, as British pianist Mark Bebbington brings the work of often-overlooked English composer John Ireland to Kleinhans. REPERTOIRE Christopher Wilkins, conductor Mark Bebbington, piano WEBER Overture to Der Freischütz IRELAND Piano Concerto in E-Flat Major In tempo moderato Lento espressivo Allegretto giocoso INTERMISSION SIBELIUS Symphony No. 2 in D Major, Op. 43 I. Allegretto II. Tempo Andante, ma rubato III. Vivacissimo IV. Allegro moderato Overture to Der Freischütz: Carl Maria von Weber (1786-1826) Composed in 1820, 10 Minute Duration Weber’s opera Der Freischütz tells the age-old tale of making a deal with the devil in return for favors. In this situation, the protagonists make a deal with a Black Huntsmen in return for seven magic bullets that will always hit their mark. The catch is that bullet No. 7 will be guided by the Black Huntsmen himself. The Overture appropriately establishes all of the main themes of the opera from the ominous sketches and horn music meant to represent the Black Huntsmen to the soaring string and wind melody which represents the hero’s future bride. Piano Concerto in E-Flat Major: John Nicholson Ireland (1879-1962) Composed in 1930, 23 Minute Duration John Ireland’s Piano Concerto features a perfect blend of Romantic timbre and 20th century harmonies. The first movement expresses fragmentation of melodies with string as well as piano solos while the second movement pays lyrical homage to Chopin and Brahms with solo and orchestra interplay.

  • Beethoven's Symphony No.9
    A COMMUNITY SUPPORTED ORCHESTRA Beethoven's Symphony No.9 August 2, 2017 7 pm at the DCR’s Hatch Shell SPONSORED BY: Dear Concertgoer, We are thrilled that you have chosen to spend a summer evening with us at the DCR’s Hatch Memorial Shell on the banks of the Charles River for one of our 2017 series of free orchestral concerts. Last year, we celebrated our 15th anniversary as the Boston Landmarks Orchestra, and this year, we celebrate our 10th anniversary performing at this iconic and historic venue on the Esplanade. Our mission is to make orchestral music free and accessible to everyone in the greater Boston community, and visitors from near and far. We are proud of our Music Director Christopher Wilkins’s artistic integrity and musical leadership, as well as his “strategy of participation” to engage with community partners from all over our city, and youth and adults in every Boston neighborhood. We have grown fond of repeating the phrase “our concerts are free, but they are not free to produce!” The members of our orchestra are among Boston’s finest, most highly trained professional musicians. We provide the best sound engineering possible for our venue. And we invest significantly in our education and community outreach programs and our community partnerships. Please consider a suggested contribution of $20 to the Boston Landmarks Orchestra to help us continue this summertime tradition for many years to come, adding immeasurably to the quality of life in Boston. You may return the enclosed reply envelope and your contribution to one of our volunteers in blue t-shirts or drop it off at our Information Tent.

  • Dearest Orlando
    2 ORLANDO PHILHARMONIC ORCHESTRA | 2019–2020 SEASON WELCOME Dearest Orlando, I’m excited to begin my fifth season with the Orlando Philharmonic Orchestra, continuing our journey of excellence and exploration that we’ve undertaken together since I began as your Music Director. This season we celebrate the American Virtuoso, honoring the spirit of adventure and cultural inclusivity that term represents. I’m looking forward to making music with all the virtuosos of our great orchestra, and with guest artists as diverse as legendary saxophonist Branford Marsalis — amazing fiddler Jeremy Kittel — multidimensional vocalist Alicia Hall Moran — and groundbreaking violin virtuoso Jennifer Koh. I look forward to bringing to you two new ways to share the music we all love so much. We’ll take a deep dive into Berlioz’s infamous Symphonie Fantastique, with a guided tour through the piece followed by a complete performance in November’s Inside the Score event. And, with Resonate, we’ll mix it up even more, combining the grandeur of the full orchestra with the intimacy of the salon via the genius of Mozart and contemporary composer Lisa Bielawa at The Plaza Live. This season, our composer-in-residence will be the multi-talented modern-day troubadour Gabriel Kahane. Equally comfortable in the worlds of folk-pop and classical, Gabriel has worked with Sufjan Stevens and Rufus Wainwright, appeared at Carnegie Hall and the Hollywood Bowl, and been commissioned by the Brooklyn Academy of Music and the Los Angeles Philharmonic, to name just a few. His piece emergency shelter intake form, confronting the resurgence of deep poverty in America, and in particular, the national crises of housing insecurity and homelessness, will be the centerpiece of our March classics program; featured performers will be a choir of members from the Central Florida homeless community.
