WELCOME

ello and thank you once again for joining my fellow orchestra members and me for another concert here at the Colorado Symphony. As we enjoy the heart of the Colorado Symphony’s 15/16 season, we are already excited about announcing our next season of concerts. In the coming 16/17 season, we’ll be presenting some of our favorite Masterworks programs, exploring more Geek and Pops concerts than ever before, and mixing genres together in a way that is sure to bring the music-loving community together like never before.

Building a new season is a truly a collaborative process between the Music Director, the Artistic Committee Committee of which I am a member, the artistic administrators in liaison with all the invited artists, the marketing team, and many others that all come together to bring you a season full of great music. I am especially thrilled about the world premiere of the Daniel Kellogg violin concerto called Rising Phoenix. It’s a special honor to have a wonderful and talented composer write a piece of this magnitude specifically for me and the Colorado Symphony. To be a part of the creative process, from inception to birth, is very exciting! Daniel Kellogg has found inspiration from the story of the Phoenix - a magical bird of fire found in thousands of years of mythology spanning the globe in numerous cultures and religions. The solo violin will be featured as the voice of the phoenix in a five movement concerto. We hope to be able to keep you updated on its progress and please join us for the world premiere in October. Speaking from the musicians’ vantage point, we are so happy to see you in the audience. Our hard work only truly comes alive with you here participating with us. We are grateful for your continued support and participation, and look forward to seeing you again in the 2016/17 season!

HOW A SYMPHONY SEASON IS BORN

Colorado Symphony’s Senior Vice President of Innovative Planning, Tony Pierce, and Senior Vice President of Artistic Planning, Bob Neu, talk about everything that goes into bringing a new season to life. — By Seth McNew

The Colorado Symphony has more than 90 performances under more than 43 different concert titles planned for its 2016/17 season. Before a performance can ever be announced, years of planning go into selecting the concert titles, conductors, guest artists, repertoire, dates, and many other aspects of the performance. In this interview, Tony Pierce and Bob Neu draw back the curtain on what it was like to create the Colorado Symphony’s recently released 2016/17 season.

16 SOUNDINGS 2015-2016 | COLORADOSYMPHONY.ORG

Who all is involved with building an upcoming season? Bob: It starts with the Music Director and orchestra’s Artistic Committee, a group of artistic staff and musicians. Then other staff including Artistic, Marketing, Public Relations and Finance all start to refine the ideas keeping in mind saleability, budget and community interest. We also bring in Development to look at funding possibilities. It’s really a company-wide effort. Tony: The Artistic Committee then remains engaged throughout the entire process. The calendar is important, so we have to make sure that the series are in place, the artists are available, and the work load of the orchestra is managed meaning we work with artists’ managers and our own personnel manager. We even engage City of Denver planners to make sure that we schedule concerts that coincide with certain city-wide events or avoid others that would make it difficult for our patrons to get to the hall. How long ago did you start the planning process, and when was it finally set? Bob: We start about two years in advance. We’re already well into planning for the 17/18 season at this point. We work to have a season finalized by late November of each season so that Marketing can begin work on the brochure in order to have a February announcement. Tony: It can be even longer than that sometimes – I have holds on the Red Rocks Amphitheatre calendar through the summer of 2019. You have to pounce on an opportunity when it’s available. For example, I started talking to the Flaming Lips three years ago to start wrapping our heads around how the concert this summer would happen. There are a lot of exciting guest artists scheduled for next season. How do you decide who you want to bring to the Colorado Symphony, and how do you get in touch with them? Tony: The Music Director and past relationships play a large role in who we are able to bring in. Then we are in close contact with management teams in places like New York and LA. The project and repertoire of course play a big role as well, since you want to find the perfect guest artist to complement the concert you are planning. Bob: I keep a running list of artists who have had successes and should be reengaged along with lists of emerging artists and performers who are established but have never performed with the orchestra. Once we determine who we’d like to invite, I contact their managements to check on interest and availability. What goes into deciding a concert title, especially for shows that have more than one composer featured? Tony: We engage with all staff in marketing and artistic to find a title that will resonate with audiences and help them to understand what they will see. The title should relate to the repertoire, but should also be able to promote the underlying theme of the piece. If you are playing Beethoven’s Symphony No. 9 for example, you might want to highlight “triumph” or “brotherhood”. Bob: It’s not just the concert title either, it’s also the artwork that our marketing team creates which is unique to each concert. They work to pull together the backstory of each program and visualize it. Look at the artwork for next seasons Messiah and Tchaikovsky concerts to see what I mean. Of all of the concerts planned for next season, which are you most excited for? Bob: That’s such a hard question to answer – we have so many great things on the horizon. I’d have to choose La Boheme as no one does those passionate operas like Andrew Litton. Also the Bach St. Matthew Passion is at the top of my list. It’s one of THE greatest masterpieces in the repertoire and I think our take on it will be unique and very moving. Tony: I’m really excited for Second City Guide to the Symphony. The collaboration with the comedy troupe is going to be unique and hilarious. I’m also really excited about Leroy Anderson. It’s such a great program for our traditional pops patrons, and it will feature a lot of our artists as soloists. SOUNDINGS 2015-2016 | COLORADOSYMPHONY.ORG 17

MUSICIAN SPOTLIGHT MEET SUSAN CAHILL: Colorado Symphony Bassist by day… “A showcase for the amazing Susan Cahill, (she) made the double bass sing...with a marvelously disembodied, woody timbre.”

— The Colorado Springs Gazette, 2010

Bassist, composer, educator, and Colorado Symphony Board of Trustees member Susan Cahill has been a member of the Colorado Symphony since 1997. During her nearly two decades as a member of this orchestra, Susan has been featured as soloist many times both at Boettcher Concert Hall and throughout the country. However, Susan is around town much more than just on stage at Boettcher. She is the co-Artistic Director of Denver Eclectic Concerts, which holds concerts monthly at Baur’s Listening Lounge, and plays in a variety of chamber ensembles. Recently she has started a band called Grande Orquesta Navarre with DeVotchKa music virtuoso Tom Haggerman and two other members. Aside from these small band engagements, Susan is a member of the Colorado Symphony Artistic Committee and Board of Trustees, teaches lessons to students around Colorado, has been a distinguished faculty member at local universities, and even does some of her own composing.

Guiding the artistic vision of the Colorado Symphony Susan is a member of the Colorado Symphony Artistic Committee, a group of musicians and artistic staff that meet often to determine the artistic direction of the symphony including concert selection and more. “Serving on the Artistic Committee is a very important part of my work with the symphony,” says Susan. “Specifically, the Artistic Committee helps shape the entire scope of the musical output of the symphony. We are elected by our colleagues to represent the vision of the musicians, and we work closely with the administration to make sure that we have an exciting balance of tradition and innovation.” Susan notes that many in the orchestra perform service work, be it serving on committees, selling raffle tickets, or performing for fundraisers. “All of us know the importance of pulling continued on page 23

MUSICIAN SPOTLIGHT together to make this an outstanding organization,” she says, “and we are really quite fortunate to have such esprit de corps.”

Building new generations of musical talent Whether it’s giving private lessons, teaching as faculty at a university, or directing and performing at festivals, Susan is passionate about getting out in the community and teaching. Susan has been on the faculty at the University of Denver and Colorado College, and has also had performances as faculty at each school. Last spring, her DU faculty solo recital featured her own jazz compositions as well as “Failing, an incredibly difficult piece for String Bass” which you can find on YouTube if you want to hear this magnificent piece. This summer, she’ll be at Colorado College’s Summer Music Festival performing the Rossini Duo with renowned cellist David Ying. Susan has performed at Festival Mozaic’s yearly concert “Classical Musicians doing UnClassical Things” where she was featured as soloist, composer and chamber musician. She was also recently featured in February in The Co-directors concert of Denver Eclectic, including a performance of her piece “Sonata for Double Bass and iTunes User Agreement”, co-written with local improv actor and symphony supporter, Jon Wilkerson.

And of course — accomplished ensemble player Aside from all of her duties with the Colorado Symphony and teaching, Susan has found time to work with various ensembles putting on performances around the world. Susan has appeared with the American roots band The Boulder Acoustic Society and was a member of the acclaimed Argentinian tango ensemble Extasis, which performed on three continents. Most recently, she’s been performing for growing audiences in the new quartet, Grande Orquesta Navarre. “We had a great premiere performance on the Denver Eclectic Series in December, and even got a nice write up in the Denver Post. We are currently working on getting that live recording out to the public.”

Your bass is worth how much?! Susan’s bass was made by Guiseppe Santori of Turin in 1823. A rare instrument with incredible sound, the bass is one of the highest valued instruments in the Colorado Symphony. Just how much is it worth? “Ah, always a delicate question, a bit like asking someone their party affiliation. Let’s just say less than a nice Cheeseman park condo, but not by much!”
