WELCOME WELCOME! THE CHORUS IS TUNING UP! The holiday season is upon us, and this concert hall will resound with the joyous sounds of music from the instruments and voices of the Colorado Symphony Orchestra and Chorus.
Welcome One, Welcome All, Pray you be well and of good cheer! Welcome song, welcome dance! Happy we are to have the chance to wish you a Merry Christmas!
Those magical words of Christmas highlight the joys of the season here in Boettcher Concert Hall. The Chorus has been working for months to bring the best of its many vocal talents to the thrilling music of the holiday season. Now singing in its 32nd season, we notice that a rather significant number of the singers in the Colorado Symphony Chorus weren’t even born when the chorus sang its inaugural season in 1984-85. Their fresh young talent complements beautifully the highly experienced veteran singers who have already contributed two or three decades of their vocal gifts to Colorado Symphony concerts. Contributed is indeed the operative word, for these dedicated singers are volunteers who contribute hundreds of hours each year to honing their skills and mastering the intricacies of the challenging music of our culture’s greatest orchestral-choral literature. But consider their reward for this contribution -- an intimate connection with the creative genius of Beethoven, Mahler, Holst, Handel, Orff, Verdi, Mozart, Vaughan Williams, and Walton. And that’s just this year. The list of musical experiences goes on with world premieres -- like William Hill’s The Raven last spring. They work with great conductors and soloists; they sing in pops concerts; they sing for special occasions (like Papal visits). They participate in recordings – the recent Colorado Symphony/Hyperion release of Vaughan Williams Dona Nobis Pacem and the premier recording of Stephen Hough’s Missa Mirabilis. They sing in festivals with the Philadelphia Orchestra, the New York Philharmonic, and the Aspen Music Festival Orchestra. So, though they never see a salary check, they do indeed have many enriching life experiences as thoroughly rewarding compensation. Join us then for some delightful Christmas fare – A Colorado Christmas, December 11-13, with the orchestra and chorus – that also features the Colorado Children’s Chorale and our jolly old friend in the red suit. Home Alone – December 22, the film, accompanied by live music from the orchestra and chorus. And make particular note of Handel’s monumental Messiah, December 18-20, performed by these forces with a fresh, exciting vision for a musical telling of this powerful story. This year, we add a Messiah Sing Along on Sunday afternoon for all of you who are eager to participate in those magnificent choruses. Your Colorado Symphony has a special partner in the Colorado Symphony Chorus – an incomparable team that is all set to make the rafters ring this holiday season! Duain Wolfe, Chorus Director and Conductor

Revenge of the Symphony
By Seth McNew Illustrations: Joe Oliver
18 SOUNDINGS 2015-2016 | COLORADOSYMPHONY.ORG
You don’t have to go to a galaxy far, far away to get your Star Wars fix this winter – just come to Boettcher Concert Hall. Whether your loyalties lie with the Imperial Forces or with the Rebel Troops, you’re sure to enjoy these themes spanning the parsecs between Denver and Dagobah. When George Lucas was filming Star Wars: A New Hope (1977) and needed an epic film score to accompany his space odyssey, he reached out to his friend Steven Spielberg for recommendations. Spielberg had recently finished his movie Jaws (1975) and recommended the composer for that film, John Williams. This would be the start of an amazing number of iconic scores that Williams created for Lucas. This concert will explore the music of the legendary John Williams, who now has 135 studio recordings and over 40 Oscar nominations, through those iconic Star Wars movie scores. This Star Wars concert is just one part of the Colorado Symphony’s Geek Series, affectionately named for its programming aimed at fans of sci-fi films, comic books, action movies, and more. The Colorado Symphony is making headlines for the innovative nature of this concert series, with features on the front page of the Wall Street Journal and on MSNBC the last few months. Many people might not realize that music for many contemporary films (as well as for video games and other modern media) uses the same instruments and musical language as symphonic literature by Beethoven, Brahms, and Holst. For example, the audience will see and hear the same orchestral instruments during the Weekend of Star Wars concert as during the Night in Vienna classical concert coming up on New Year’s Eve. Tristan Rennie, Colorado Symphony Second/Assistant Principal Bassoonist and self-proclaimed geek, is a big fan of the Geek Series programming and the impact these concerts have on audience members. “When you hear the music, that’s all you need to be transported into the story,” Tristan says. “We geek fans love the way our favorite movies, books, and video games transport us into new worlds to be explored. The expansive music for these movies has that same ability to transport us to our favorite galaxies, SOUNDINGS 2015-2016 | COLORADOSYMPHONY.ORG 19

kingdoms, castles, and beyond. You come to these concerts because you enjoy the films, and the live music makes the story only that much better.” Tristan often likes to dress up for these shows and encourages audience members to do so as well. He says there’s nothing quite like getting to the hall and seeing not only the audience in their favorite geek garb but all of the musicians too. While the Geek programming might be more lighthearted than the traditional Masterworks, the music certainly isn’t easy. This is especially true for the brass section of the orchestra that is responsible for many of the dramatic bursts that help to make scenes from films like Star Wars so powerful and unforgettable. John Sipher is the Colorado Symphony’s new Principal Trombone as of the start of the 2015/16 season. When asked about what it’s like to play the Star Wars concert, his first thought is how tiring it is to sustain that level of playing for an entire concert. “Anything John Williams, particularly Star Wars, is some of the most challenging work we brass players will play throughout the year. In classical programming, brass is usually used sparingly, but in these concerts we play more often, a lot louder, and for longer periods than we are used to. That’s what makes it so great though, the challenge is what makes it so fun.” The Colorado Symphony takes on the 2015/16 season with more Geek Series programming than ever. For more from the Geek Series and other pops concerts, check out: • The Music of James Bond with Hilary Kole — November 28 - Saturday, 7:30 pm • A Weekend of Star Wars — December 26-27 - Saturday 7:30 pm, Sunday 1:00 pm • Pixar in Concert — January 15-16 - Friday, 7:30, Saturday, 2:30 pm • A Symphonic Tribute to Mel Brooks — April 9 - Saturday, 7:30 pm • A Symphonic Tribute to Comic Con 3.0 — May 6 - Friday, 7:30 pm

MUSICIAN SPOTLIGHT Carolyn Kunicki
Carolyn has been a musician nearly her entire life. She showed an interest in music at an early age and spent much of her youth playing the family piano and her father’s old boy scout bugle at their home in Pennsylvania. At age nine she started playing the French horn, partly because her mother thought it sounded pretty, partly because that’s what was available at the local school, but mostly because of Carolyn had a strong desire to play something loud.
PETER LOCKLEY
Congratulations to Carolyn Kunicki, Colorado Symphony Section Horn and recent honoree of the Colorado Symphony’s Women of Note.
It’s not easy for a small child to play the French horn. It requires stamina to hold the instrument during long practices as well as strong stomach muscles and powerful breath to make the instrument sound right. This wasn’t much of an issue for Carolyn who came from an athletic family and remains very athletic to this day. Carolyn was homeschooled starting at age nine, which gave her ample time to play her horn. She excelled both musically and academically, enough so to graduate early from high school. Even more impressive is that by age 16, Carolyn was already accepted to The Juilliard School.. She always knew she wanted to go to New York City, spending childhood nights watching David Letterman and dreaming of making it to the Big Apple. Going to The Juilliard School was a dream come true and it turned out to be everything she hoped it would be. She spent many nights at the Metropolitan Opera thanks to tickets given to her by her professor, even if they were standing tickets for a three hour long opera. She continued to excel in the French Horn performance and went on to win the The Juilliard School Strauss Horn Concerto competition her senior year.
Carolyn won the position of Assistant Horn during that audition back in 2001 and has been playing in the Colorado Symphony ever since. Carolyn has become not only an amazing member of the orchestra’s overall talent, but also a community leader in Colorado. Carolyn has a passion for educational outreach, and she is very involved in the Colorado Symphony’s education program, musicurious. One of her favorite programs is the Once Upon a Time

After graduating, she auditioned and was awarded the prestigious Aspen Music Festival Fellowship, a three year program where fellows spend summers playing in Aspen. During her second summer she won the Aspen Wind Solo Competition. However, she would never make it to her third summer because during one summer in Aspen, she ended up driving to Denver to take an audition with the Colorado Symphony.
curriculum where she and fellow musicians go to schools to play music to the narration of Aesop’s Fables. Carolyn couldn’t be more honored to be the recipient of the Women of Note accolade, saying “I grew up here. I was hired by the Colorado Symphony when I was just 21, I met my husband here, I had two children here - the Colorado Symphony is home to me, these people are my family. It’s so special to see this program, this group of women, making such an incredible impact in the arts community in Denver. The arts scene is growing in Denver and I think the next decade is going to be an amazing time for our city. Groups like Women of Note are helping our arts scene get to that next level and I’m honored to be a part of that.”
Thank you to our Women of Note Women of Note is a membership group of goodwill ambassadors for the Colorado Symphony, encouraging individuals and organizations to attend concerts and provide financial support to the region’s premier performing arts organization. “Women of Note not only adds dimension and enrichment to our musical experiences, it contributes importantly to the Colorado Symphony’s financial success,” says Mary Rossick Kern, Colorado Symphony Co-Chair of the Board of Trustees and one of the founding members of Women of Note. “We are thrilled to honor Carolyn as this year’s Women of Note musician. As a dedicated musician, she makes an impact in the community and exemplifies the kind of dedication this program supports and nurtures.” More than 95 percent of the funds raised through membership fees provide direct salary support to one distinguished female Colorado Symphony musician each year.

MASTERWORKS PROGRAM NOTES LUDWIG VAN BEETHOVEN (1770-1827): Overture to The Creatures of Prometheus, Op. 43 Ludwig van Beethoven was born on December 16, 1770 in Bonn, and died March 26, 1827 in Vienna. He composed the overture and sixteen additional pieces comprising the music for Prometheus early in 1801; the ballet was premiered at Vienna’s Imperial Court Theater on March 28, 1801. The score calls for woodwinds, horns and trumpets in pairs, timpani and strings. Duration is about 5 minutes. Last performed by the orchestra on September 30, October 1 & 2, 2011 with Gilbert Varga conducting. Salvatore Vigano was one of the great dancers of the early 19th century, whose fame during his own time has been compared to that of Nijinsky a century later and Nureyev and Baryshnikov in more recent days. Though he was constantly in demand throughout Europe as performer, producer and choreographer, Vigano showed Vienna the special favor of two extended residencies, the second beginning in 1799. Late in 1800, Vigano devised the scenario for a new ballet based on the Prometheus legend, a work he intended as a compliment to Maria Theresa, second wife of the Emperor Francis. He inquired at court as to which composer might be the most suitable to engage, and was informed that Beethoven, who had recently (and tactfully) dedicated the score of his Septet (Op. 20) to Maria Theresa, would be an appropriate choice. Beethoven was approached, and he agreed to undertake the project. The following description of the ballet’s plot appeared in the program for the premiere: “The foundation of this allegorical ballet is the fable of Prometheus. The philosophers of Greece allude to Prometheus as a lofty soul who drove the people of his time from ignorance, refined them by means of science and the arts, and gave them manners, customs and morals. As a result of that conception, two statues that have been brought to life are introduced in this ballet; and these, through the power of harmony, are made sensitive to all the passions of human life. Prometheus leads them to Parnassus, in order that Apollo, the god of the fine arts, may enlighten them.” Beethoven may well have seen something of himself in the character of Prometheus. “Music should strike fire in the heart of man,” he once proclaimed. More specifically relating himself with the Prometheus legend was his statement to the Archduke Rudolph in 1823: “There is no loftier mission than to approach the Divinity nearer than other men, and to disseminate the divine rays among mankind.” The Overture to Prometheus is Beethoven’s earliest work in that form, and one of his most compact. George Bernard Shaw once observed, “When I was a boy, an overture beginning emphatically with an unprepared discord made me expect something tremendous.” So begins this Overture. The characteristic tension — the expectation of “something tremendous” — generated by so many of Beethoven’s works appears here in the very first measure. The electric opening chord initiates a lyrical introduction in slow tempo. The main body of the Overture follows without pause. The first theme is an energetic display of rushing scales propelled by a vibrant rhythmic energy. The second theme is a more delicate melody, entrusted to the piping flutes in duet. The Creatures of Prometheus, standing on the threshold of Beethoven’s second creative period, points forward to the substance of his later works. Of this prophetic quality, Marion M. Scott wrote, “In [Prometheus], Beethoven occupied himself with the theme of the beneficent savior of mankind. It was a turning point in his career. His old style no longer contented him. Of conventional religion, Beethoven had none, but his mind was beginning to search into the deepest mysteries of the universe at the same time that he recognized the mission within himself that he must fulfill. The musician must be the liberator of mankind from sorrow.”

MASTERWORKS PROGRAM NOTES LUDWIG VAN BEETHOVEN (1770-1827): Concerto No. 1 for Piano and Orchestra in C major, Op. 15 Beethoven composed his C major Piano Concerto in 1795 and revised the work five years later in preparation for its publication; he was the soloist at its premiere on December 18, 1795 at the Burgtheater in Vienna at a concert directed by Joseph Haydn. The score calls for flute, pairs of oboes, clarinets, bassoons, horns and trumpets, timpani and strings. Duration is about 36 minutes. Last performed by the orchestra on September 30, October 1 and 2, 2011, with Gilbert Varga conducting and Jeffrey Kahane as the piano soloist. “His genius, his magnetic personality were acknowledged by all, and there was, besides, a gaiety and animation about the young Beethoven that people found immensely attractive. The troubles of boyhood were behind him: his father had died very shortly after his departure from Bonn, and by 1795, his brothers were established in Vienna, Caspar Karl as a musician, Johann as an apothecary. During his first few months in the capital, he had indeed been desperately poor, depending very largely on the small salary allowed him by the Elector of Bonn. But that was all over now. He had no responsibilities, and his music was bringing in enough to keep him in something like affluence. He had a servant, for a short time he even had a horse; he bought smart clothes, he learned to dance (though not with much success), and there is even mention of his wearing a wig! We must not allow our picture of the later Beethoven to throw its dark colors over these years of his early triumphs. He was a young giant exulting in his strength and his success, and a youthful confidence gave him a buoyancy that was both attractive and infectious. Even in 1791, before he left Bonn, Carl Junker could describe him as ‘this amiable, lighthearted man.’ And in Vienna he had much to raise his spirits and nothing (at first) to depress them.” Peter Latham painted this cheerful picture of the young Beethoven as Vienna knew him during his twenties, the years before his deafness, his recurring illnesses and his titanic struggles with his mature compositions had produced the familiar dour figure of his later years. Beethoven came to Vienna for good in 1792, having made an unsuccessful foray in 1787, and he quickly attracted attention for his piano playing. His appeal was in the almost untamed, passionate, novel quality in both his manner of performance and his personality, characteristics that first intrigued and then captivated those who heard him. It was for his own concerts that Beethoven composed the first four of his five mature piano concertos. (Two juvenile essays in the genre are discounted in the numbering.) The opening movement of the First Piano Concerto is indebted to Mozart for its handling of the concerto-sonata form, for its technique of orchestration, and for the manner in which piano and orchestra are integrated. Beethoven added to these quintessential qualities of the Classical concerto a wider-ranging harmony, a more openly virtuosic role for the soloist and a certain emotional weight characteristic of his large works. The second movement is a richly colored song with an important part for the solo clarinet. The rondo-finale is written in an infectious manner reminiscent of Haydn, brimming with high spirits and good humor.

MASTERWORKS PROGRAM NOTES LUDWIG VAN BEETHOVEN (1770-1827): Symphony No. 3 in E-flat major, Op. 55, “Eroica” Beethoven began work on his Third Symphony in 1803 and completed it during the spring of the following year. It was first heard at a private concert in Vienna conducted by the composer in December 1804 at the palace of Prince Joseph Lobkowitz. The score calls for woodwinds and trumpets in pairs, three horns, timpani and strings. Duration is about 50 minutes. Last performed by the orchestra on March 24 and 25, 2012, with Scott O’Neil conducting The year 1804 — the time Beethoven finished his Third Symphony — was crucial in the modern political history of Europe. Napoleon Bonaparte had begun his meteoric rise to power only a decade earlier, after playing a significant part in the recapture in 1793 of Toulon, a Mediterranean port that had been surrendered to the British by French royalists. Britain, along with Austria, Prussia, Holland and Spain, was a member of the First Coalition, an alliance that had been formed by those monarchial nations in the wake of the execution of Louis XVI to thwart the French National Convention’s ambition to spread revolution (and royal overthrow) throughout Europe. In 1796, Carnot entrusted the campaign against northern Italy, then dominated by Austria, to the young General Bonaparte, who won a stunning series of victories with an army that he had transformed from a demoralized, starving band into a military juggernaut. He returned to France in 1799 as First Consul of the newly established Consulate, and put in place measures to halt inflation, instituted a new legal code, and repaired relations with the Church. It was to this man, this great leader and potential savior of the masses from centuries of tyrannical political, social and economic oppression, that Beethoven intended to pay tribute in his majestic E-flat Symphony, begun in 1803. The name “Bonaparte” appears above that of the composer on the original title page. Napoleon proclaimed himself Emperor of France in 1804 and was crowned, with the new Empress Josephine, at Notre Dame Cathedral on December 2nd, an event forever frozen in time by David’s magnificent canvas in the Louvre. Beethoven, enraged and feeling betrayed by this usurpation of power, roared at his student Ferdinand Ries, who brought him the news, “Then is he, too, only an ordinary human being?” The ragged hole in the title page of the score now in the library of the Gesellschaft der Musikfreunde in Vienna bears mute testimony to the violent manner in which Beethoven erased Napoleon from this Symphony. He later inscribed it, undoubtedly with much sorrow, “To celebrate the memory of a great man.” The “Eroica” (“Heroic”) is a work that changed the course of music history. There was much sentiment at the turn of the 19th century that the expressive and technical possibilities of the symphonic form had been exhausted by Haydn, Mozart, C.P.E. Bach and their contemporaries. It was Beethoven, and specifically this majestic Symphony, that threw wide the gates on the unprecedented artistic vistas that were to be explored for the rest of the century. In a single giant leap, he invested the genre with the breadth and richness of emotional and architectonic expression that established the grand sweep that the word “symphonic” now connotes. For the first time, with this music, the master composer was recognized as an individual responding to a higher calling. No longer could the creative musician be considered a mere artisan in tones, producing pieces within the confines of the court or the church for specific occasions, much as a talented chef would dispense a hearty roast or a succulent torte. After Beethoven, the composer was regarded as a visionary — a special being lifted above mundane experience —

MASTERWORKS PROGRAM NOTES who could guide benighted listeners to loftier planes of existence through his valued gifts. The modern conception of an artist — what he is, his place in society, what he can do for those who experience his work — stems from Beethoven. Romanticism began with the “Eroica.” The vast first movement opens with a brief summons of two mighty chords. At least four thematic ideas are presented in the exposition. The development is a massive essay progressing through many moods, all united by a titanic sense of struggle. It is in this central portion of the movement and in the lengthy coda that Beethoven broke through the boundaries of the 18th-century symphony to create a work not only longer in duration but also more profound in meaning. The beginning of the second movement — “Marcia funebre” (“Funeral March”) — with its plaintive, simple themes intoned over a mock drum-roll in the basses, is the touchstone for the expression of tragedy in instrumental music. A development-like section, full of remarkable contrapuntal complexities, is followed by a return of the simple opening threnody. The third movement is a lusty scherzo; the central section is a rousing trio for horns. The finale is a large set of variations on two themes, one of which (the first one heard) forms the bass line to the other. The second theme, introduced by the oboe, is a melody that also appears in the finale of Beethoven’s ballet The Creatures of Prometheus, Contradanse No. 7 and Variations and Fugue, Op. 35. The variations accumulate energy, and, just as it seems the movement is whirling toward its final climax, the music comes to a full stop before launching into an Andante section that explores first the tender and then the majestic possibilities of the themes. A brilliant Presto led by the horns concludes this epochal work. ©2015 Dr. Richard E. Rodda

Experience a Divine Culture
Erhu & Pipa
ALL-NEW 2016 SHOW WITH LIVE ORCHESTRA
The Heart of Shen Yun’s Melodies It is said that the erhu is the instrument most capable of resembling the human voice. It has only two strings, but in the hands of a virtuoso it can fill the air with tenderness, sorrow, or joy— holding the audience spellbound. The pipa is known as the king of Chinese instruments. It has an expressive depth that can convey both delicate, heavenly melodies and thunderous sounds of battle.
Perfect Holiday Gift
“The combination of eastern instruments and western instruments... It’s beautiful.”
“Beautiful… a nimble mastery.”
— Rodney Winther, Professor Emeritus of Music at the University of Cincinnati
“Awe-Inspiring Sensation!”
“I want every one of my chorus members to see this show... It’s a perfect 10.” — Steve Mullins, musical conductor
“This show demonstrates the deep, deep, deep artistic soul of China...” — Anthony Daniels, actor, played C3PO in Star Wars
