  • Celebrating Slatkin Booklet FINAL
    Marie-Hélène Bernard St. Louis Symphony Orchestra President & CEO Dear Leonard, When you made your conducting debut with the St. Louis Symphony Orchestra in 1968, who could have imagined that we’d gather on the same stage 50 years later to celebrate a remarkable partnership – one that redefined what an American orchestra could – and continues – to be. What you built with the St. Louis Symphony Orchestra starting 50 years ago remains core to our mission. It’s the solid bedrock we’ve been building on for the past five decades: enriching lives through the power of music. Your years with the SLSO reshaped this orchestra, earning it the title of “America’s Orchestra.” You connected with our community – both here in St. Louis and on national and international stages. By taking this orchestra on the road, you introduced the SLSO and St. Louis to the world. You recorded with this orchestra more than any other SLSO music director, championing American composers and music of our time. Your passion for music education led to your founding of the St. Louis Symphony Youth Orchestra, which is the premiere experience for young musicians across our region. Next year, we will mark the Youth Orchestra’s golden anniversary and the thousands of lives it has impacted. We admire you for your remarkable spirit and talent and for your amazing vision and leadership. We are thrilled you have returned home to St. Louis and look forward to many years sharing special moments together. On behalf of the entire St. Louis Symphony Orchestra family, congratulations on the 50th anniversary of your SLSO debut.

  • SYMPHONY #1, “A S (1903-9) Ralph Vaughan Williams (1872-1958)
    presents SYMPHONY #1, “A SEA SYMPHONY” (1903-9) Ralph Vaughan Williams (1872-1958) Performed by the UNIVERSITY SYMPHONY & COMBINED CHORUS Peter Erös, conductor 7:30 PM March 14, 2008 Meany Theater PROGRAM A Song for All Seas, All Ships On the Beach at night, Alone The Waves The Explorers A SEA SYMPHONY is a remarkably evocative piece of music by Ralph Vaughan Williams for a large choir, soprano and baritone soloists and orchestra. The text is from Walt Whitman’s collection “Leaves of Grass.” This is perfect for Vaughan Williams, encompassing everything from descrip– tions of ships at sea, daring explorers and innovators, introspection on the meaning of progress, the Second Coming, and a transcendent final voyage to the afterlife. Bertrand Russell introduced Vaughan Williams to the poet’s work while they were both undergraduates at Cambridge. The piece is a true choral symphony, where the choir leads the themes and drives the action, rather than merely intoning the words and pro– viding a bit of vocal color; it is more like an oratorio than a symphony. It is Vaughan Williams’ first symphonic work, and such was his lack of confidence in the area that he returned to study under Ravel in Paris for three months before he felt able to complete it. It was premiered in 1910 at the Leeds Festival. There are four movements: “A Song for all Seas, all Ships,” “On the Beach at night, Alone,” “The Waves,” and “The Explorers.” The first is an introduction, dealing with the sea, sailing ships and steamers, sailors and flags.
