WELCOME FROM OUR MUSIC DIRECTOR

Dear Friends,

Happy holidays! We are so happy you have chosen to make music a part of your family’s holiday tradition by spending a little bit of this festive season with the KSO.

We begin December with the piece that epitomizes the holiday season for me. This year, Classical Christmas features Handel’s Messiah, a timeless masterpiece that exemplifies the spiritual and the human experience of the Christmas story. I am so glad to partner with the Knoxville Choral Society and four soloists, all from right here at home in Knoxville, to begin what I hope will become a new KSO Messiah tradition.

Speaking of traditions, the Clayton Holiday Concert returns for a 33rd season, with a program we are calling “Christmas on Broadway.” Join our two Knoxvillian soloists, Kathryn Paden and Jordan Bondurant, for a winter vacation to the Great White Way. Revel along with the Knoxville Choral Society and Go! Contemporary Dance Works to your favorite holiday classics from Broadway blockbusters including Annie, A Christmas Carol and Mame, plus classic Broadway-born songs like “It’s Beginning to Look a Lot Like Christmas” and “Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas.” And there may even be a visit from Santa!

Amidst the seasonal festivities, the KSO and our musicians continue their indispensable work bringing music into classrooms, children’s libraries and hospitals across East Tennessee through our Education and Music and Wellness programs. Eighty percent of the KSO’s activities in our community happen outside of the concert hall and many completely free of charge so that all East Tennesseans can have access to join the live symphonic music. In this season of giving, we thank you for your support of these essential efforts.

With warmth,

Aram Demirjian

The Knoxville Symphony Orchestra is flourishing under the transformative leadership of music director Aram Demirjian. Through bold programming, innovative collaborations and Aram’s dynamic presence both on stage and in the community, the KSO has attained new artistic heights, sustained significant ticket revenue increases and received national recognition for its achievements over the 3 years of his tenure.

The 2019-20 KSO season extends and intensifies Aram’s commitment to fostering community through collaboration in the concert hall. Local partnerships include performances with the Knoxville Choral Society, contemporary ensemble Nief-Norf, Street Beatz Studios and Go! Contemporary Dance Works, plus sought-after guest artists including Natasha Paremski, Bella Hristova and Grammy©-nominated violinist Philippe Quint. Quint will perform the world premiere of Michael Schachter’s Violin Concerto: Cycle of Life, a joint commission of the KSO and the Knoxville Museum of Art. Aram and the KSO continue to champion American music with works by Barber, Bernstein, James P. Johnson, Florence Price and George Walker, plus living composers Avner Dorman, Jennifer Higdon, Missy Mazzoli, Jessie Montgomery and Dosia McKay. Further highlights include Handel’s Messiah, Mahler’s First Symphony, Tchaikovsky’s Fourth Symphony and a yearlong celebration of Beethoven’s 250th anniversary. Most notably, the KSO will perform in Washington, D.C.’s Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts as one of only four organizations featured at SHIFT: A Festival of American Orchestras. Aram will conduct a program highlighting Knoxville’s artistic history called “Knoxville: Artists at Home,” featuring soprano Julia Bullock, poets RB Morris and RheaSunshine and a brass ensemble from University of Tennessee.

Aram has appeared with the nation’s top orchestras and maintains a close relationship with The Philadelphia Orchestra, with which he appears three times in the 2019-20 season. He also makes subscription debuts with the Tucson Symphony, Portland Symphony and the Orlando Philharmonic. Other recent engagements include the Detroit, Houston, Indianapolis, Kansas City, Omaha, San Antonio and St. Louis symphonies, the Minnesota and Sarasota orchestras, and the Louisiana Philharmonic.

Aram is involved in a substantial breadth of education and community initiatives with the goal of ensuring that everyone, regardless of age, background or circumstance, has access to great symphonic music. A gifted public speaker, he is a passionate and vocal advocate for the arts, and he regularly addresses to community and business organizations advocating for arts non-profits and arts education in our society.

Aram is the winner of the 2019 Career Assistance Award from the Solti Foundation U.S. and the 2011 Robert J. Harth Conducting Prize from the Aspen Music Festival, and he has appeared in masterclasses with renowned conductors Bernard Haitink and Kurt Masur.

The Gift of Music

The Knoxville Symphony Orchestra is truly thankful for your support, which makes a major impact on our service to the East Tennessee region. Along with creating excellent music and performing in the traditional venues, 80% of the KSO’s time is spent not within the concert halls, but out in the community. Our Orchestra performs in school classrooms, libraries, hospitals, city parks, and churches, and reaches more than 200,000 children and adults each year. Since many of these concerts and programs are offered at low or no cost, your financial contribution is essential to support all that we do.

The KSO is proud to be the oldest continuously performing orchestra in the Southeast, and a vital component of the cultural tapestry that makes Knoxville such a special and distinctive place in which to live, work, and play.

The KSO gratefully acknowledges the following pledges and gifts received between November 2018 and November 2019.
