    Presents UW CHAMBER ORCHESTRA David Alexander Rahbee, conductor January 24, 2014 7:30 PM Brechemin Auditorium PROGRAM CONCERTO FOR OBOE AND ORCHESTRA IN C MAJOR, K. 314 ........................................ W. A. MOZART (1756-1791) I. Allegro aperto II. Adagio non troppo III. Rondo: Allegretto Kristin Olson, oboe INTERMISSION SYMPHONY #83 IN G MINOR, "LA POULE" (THE HEN) ................................. JOSEPH HAYDN (1732-1809) I. Allegro spiritoso II. Andante III. Menuet & trio: Allegretto IV. Finale: Vivace ABOUT THE MUSIC: Composed in 1777, the OBOE CONCERTO IN C MAJOR was better known as the Flute Concerto in D Major–an arrangement made by Mozart in 1778–until the score and orchestral parts were unearthed by Bernhard Paumgartner, director of the Salzburg Mozarteum archives, in 1920. Inspired by Giuseppe Ferlendis, a jovial fellow of questionable musicianship, Mozart composed the only oboe concerto of his career. But it was Friedrich Ramm, the oboist of the Mannheim orchestra, who actively engaged with the work, performing it five times by February 1778. In the winter of 1778, looking to quickly finish a commission for flutist Ferdinand de Jean, Mozart recycled his own work. In 1783, Anton Meyer, the oboist in the Esterháza orchestra, ordered the score and parts: and then, the concerto vanished in its original form. The three movement work (fast-slow-fast) is melodious and expres- sive, and perfectly suited for the oboe, not the flute. The first movement, Allegro aperto, is hefty with a sprightly tempo. The second movement is eloquent with restrained orchestral accompaniment, allowing the oboe to really shine. The third and final movement is euphoric and previews the Act II aria “Welche Wonne, welche Lust,” from Die Entführung aus dem Serail, an opera from 1781.
