Printed in the U.S.A. FROM THE PRESIDENT & CEO Dear Friends, Thank you for attending the Fresno Philharmonic! We are so pleased to have you with us to share in the unique experience of live orchestral music. Our hope is that you come away from the Fresno Philharmonic with a deeper sense of connection to music and the artists who write and perform it. The Fresno Philharmonic’s 2019-20 season is all about making connections through music. By exploring works from the theater, opera and movies, as well as the concert hall, we’ll attempt to redefine what an orchestra concert can be. This seems only appropriate given that 2020 marks the world-wide celebration of Beethoven’s 250th anniversary. More than any other composer, Beethoven redefined classical music in ways that still reverberate today.

(A rival company produced Italian operas.) Weber’s continued representation in the opera house and concert hall rests upon three important operas that he composed during the years before his premature death at age 39: Der Freischutz, Euryanthe, and Oberon. Dating from 1821, the first of these—Der Freischutz—is considered the first great Romantic German opera.

  • Barry Douglas Joins the Russian State Symphony Orchestra As Part of Mighty All-Russian Programme
    PRESS RELEASE FOR IMMEDIATE USE Barry Douglas joins the Russian State Symphony Orchestra as part of mighty all-Russian programme Russian State Symphony Orchestra with Barry Douglas Sunday 14 Oct 2018, 3pm Usher Hall, Lothian Road, Edinburgh Tchaikovsky Swan Lake Suite Shostakovich Piano Concerto No. 2 Rachmaninov Symphony No. 2 Images available to download here Usher Hall gets its new Sunday Classics season off to a roaring start with some of the finest Russian music from one of the nation’s standout orchestras Tickets range from £13.50 - £35, £10 student tickets are also available and under 16s can get a free ticket when booked with an adult. A mighty all-Russian programme from one of Russia’s foremost orchestras kicks off the Usher Hall’s 2018-19 Sunday Classics concerts in spectacular style. The Russian State Symphony Orchestra will take audiences on a spellbinding journey of heart-stopping romance; mischievous wit; and one of the most moving tales in the whole of ballet. They will be joined in part from the world-renowned Belfast pianist, Barry Douglas. The Moscow-based orchestra has a peerless pedigree in the stirring, deeply expressive music of its homeland, with a rich, noble sound that’s matched by the players’ incisive energy. Under conductor Valentin Uryupin, one of the most exciting young talents emerging from Russia’s fiercely competitive classical world, it’s a force to be reckoned with. Uryupin and his Orchestra open with the unforgettable melancholy of one of the world’s best-loved ballet scores: Tchaikovsky’s Swan Lake. The dancers at the ballet’s premiere in 1877 protested at the piece’s difficulty to dance to – it was too rich and extensive to complement their movement.
