  • 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.

We are happy to once again Be sharing music By some our greatest composers with our enthusiastic audiences in the Vail Valley. We enjoy our collaBoration with the amicaBle and witty Bramwell Tovey, and judging from past audience reactions, so do our fans in Vail. The first program on July 24th showcases the pianist Jon Kimura Parker playing Edvard Grieg's classic Piano Concerto in A minor. This concert will also showcase the suBliminal overture to Fingal's Cave By Felix Mendelssohn and Edward Elgar's Enigma Variations. Maestro Tovey's second program on July 26th features Bravo!

  • 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.
