Chicago Philharmonic Embarks on Groundbreaking Polish Music Exchange and Festival Contact: Cassandra Kirkpatrick [email protected] 312-957-0000 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Chicago Philharmonic Embarks on Groundbreaking Polish Music Exchange and Festival Chicago, IL – (March 8 2018) Celebrating Chicago's rich cultural history, the Chicago Philharmonic Society is proud to announce its first-ever international classical music exchange will occur in 2018. The exchange of music, musicians, and culture will take place in Poland this April. Later this year, a five-day festival of Polish music in Chicago, the Chicago Philharmonic Festival: Poland 2018, will join in the worldwide celebration of Poland’s 100-year National Independence Day, which commemorates the restoration of the country’s sovereignty in 1918. The two-part project launches on April 8 2018, when ten Chicago Philharmonic musicians and Artistic Director and Principal Conductor Scott Speck will begin a week-long trip to the Polish cultural capital Kraków. The musicians will work with students at the Academy of Music in Kraków by leading master classes and side-by-side symphonic rehearsals. The rehearsals, led by Scott Speck, will culminate in a concert of symphonic music by American composers on Friday, April 13 2018 featuring both the Chicago Philharmonic musicians and students from the Academy of Music. Works performed will include Jennifer Hidgon’s blue cathedral, George Walker’s Lyric for Strings, and Leonard Bernstein’s Symphonic Dances from West Side Story. On Saturday, April 14 2018 the Chicago Philharmonic musicians will travel to the Krzysztof Penderecki European Centre of Music in Lusławice, Poland, a music and culture venue which was conceived and created by famous composer Krzysztof Penderecki and opened officially in 2013. At the Penderecki Centre, Chicago Philharmonic musicians will present a chamber concert showcasing the following American and Chicagoan works for string quartet, solo percussion, and brass quintet: Guy G. Gauthreaux II American Suite for Unaccompanied Snare Drum Stacy Garrop String Quartet No. 4: Illuminations Samuel Barber Adagio for Strings William Bolcom Three Rags for String Quartet John Cheetham Scherzo Jan Bach Laudes; I - Reveille Eric Ewazen Frostfire Leonard Bernstein Dance Suite for Brass Quintet Witold Lutosławski Mini Overture Traveling to Poland with Artistic Director and Principal Conductor Scott Speck and Executive Director Donna Milanovich are musicians: David Perry violin Kathleen Brauer violin Sally Chisholm viola Barbara Haffner cello Robert Everson percussion William Denton trumpet Mike Brozick trumpet Neil Kimel horn Jeremy Moeller trombone Graeme Mutchler bass trombone The second part of the project concludes in November with the Chicago Philharmonic Festival: Poland 2018. Chicago Philharmonic anticipates this festival as the first of a biannual initiative showcasing the different communities which make up Chicago’s cultural landscape. Highlights of this five-day festival include a Chicago Philharmonic Orchestra concert featuring works by Ignacy Jan Paderewski, Karol Szymanowski, Andrzej Panufnik, and Frederic Chopin at the Copernicus Center. Featured in this orchestral performance is the young piano virtuoso Łukasz Krupiński, performing Andante spianato et grande polonaise brillante by Chopin and one of “the greatest Polish piano achievements,” Paderewski’s Piano Concerto in A minor. Also a part of the festival is Wojciech Kilar’s Missa Pro Pace (Mass for Peace) for orchestra, organ, choir, and soloists, which will be performed at historic St. Hyacinth Basilica and led by outstanding Polish conductor Marek Moś, Conductor, Artistic Director of the AUKSO chamber orchestra who has received numerous awards including the Contemporary Music Competition in Kraków (1979), the UNESCO International Tribune in Paris (1984, 1988), the Polish Composers’ Union Prize (1994, 2005) and the Ministry of Culture’s ‘Gloria Artist’ silver award (2005). The festival will also feature guest performances by Poland-based, internationally- renowned artists including the acclaimed Fryderyk Award and 2017 Gramophone Classical Music Award-winning Silesian String Quartet, presenting a concert of all contemporary works. Also featured as a soloist is Polish jazz pianist and composer Piotr Orzechowski, who was the first Polish 1st Prize winner of the legendary Swiss Montreux Jazz Solo Piano Competition. Additionally, the festival will feature an organ recital by Academy of Music and noted Kraków organ professor Andrzej Białko, who has recorded multiple albums with Polish record label Dux Records. The festival will also feature collaborations with two eminent local organizations: The Lira Ensemble and Paderewski Symphony Orchestra and Chorus.

Governed under a groundbreaking structure of musician leadership, the Society presents concerts at venues throughout the Chicago area that cover the full spectrum of classical music, from Bach to Britten and beyond.

The Society’s outreach programs connect Chicago-area youth to classical music and provide performance opportunities for members of the community. Founded 26 years ago by principal musicians from the Lyric Opera Orchestra, the Chicago Philharmonic currently serves as the official orchestra of the Joffrey Ballet, continues its decades-long association with the Ravinia Festival, and presents symphonic concerts in Chicago’s North Shore region and at the Harris Theater where it is a resident company in downtown Chicago.

  • Chicago Philharmonic Performs Playful Soundtracks to Hilarious Silent Films in the North Shore
    Contact: Cassandra Kirkpatrick [email protected] (312) 957-0000 Chicago Philharmonic Performs Playful Soundtracks to Hilarious Silent Films in the North Shore Chicago, IL - (March 11 2019) Following critically acclaimed, sold-out performances with the Joffrey Ballet and English National Ballet, the Chicago Philharmonic returns to the North Shore to present another unforgettable multimedia production combining film and classical music. Featuring fresh new soundtracks by Tom Nazziola, a prolific composer and conductor best known for his work on film, television and musicals, Silent Sherlock will astound and entertain audiences at the North Shore Center for the Performing Arts in Skokie this March. Nazziola will lead the Chicago Philharmonic ensemble in three new film scores to accompany a live screening of movies from the golden age of silent film in the 1920s. Headlining the program is Sherlock Jr., starring perhaps the greatest comedic genius of the 20th century, Buster Keaton. Hilarious hijinks ensue as Keaton attempts to impress his sweetheart, solve a mystery, and save the day. Accompanying spectacular cinematography is a colorful palette of violin, piano, bass, and winds painted with Nazziola’s masterful hand. Silent Sherlock also features the short Sure-Locked Homes with legendary cartoon character Felix the Cat and Fadeaway, at the time a revolutionary blend of animation and live action, with vividly entertaining Koko the Clown. Nazziola’s film scores have been lavishly praised by Rolling Stone: “Nazziola is doing astonishing compositional work with silent films…his contribution indispensable.” Silent Sherlock Films with live music March 24 2019, 4:00pm North Shore Center for the Performing Arts, Skokie Tom Nazziola composer and conductor Featuring the silent films Sherlock Jr.

Gerber was born in 1948 in Washington, D.C. He received degrees from Haverford College and Princeton University; his composition teachers included Robert Parris, J. K. Randall, Earl Kim, and Milton Babbitt. The Washington Post called his Violin Concerto “a major addition to the con- temporary violin repertoire: lyrical, passionate, beautifully tailored to the instrument’s character and capabilities…Gerber has revived the spirit of romanticism in this work, with a strong sense of tonal melody and of the dramatic effects and surprises still possible in traditional forms...one of the year’s most memorable events.” And when Carter Brey premiered his Cello Concerto in 1996, the Washington Post said, “Gerber’s concerto seems to have what it takes to establish a foothold…. The music is composed with a fine sense of instrumental color…. Gerber has given his soloist some fine, expressive melodies.” Gerber’s music has been performed by orchestras and ensembles around the U.S. including the San Francisco Symphony, the National Philharmonic Orchestra, the Long Island Philharmonic, The Louisville Orchestra, the Omaha Symphony, and the Fine Arts and Amernet String Quartets, to name a few.
