WELCOME Welcome to the fifth season in the resurgence of the Colorado Symphony.

From the brink of oblivion, this extraordinary ensemble – one of the best in the country and everybody’s orchestra – continues to evolve.

During the past four seasons:

◆ musicians and conductors from all over the world competed at auditions for coveted spots with the Colorado Symphony;

◆ 15 of the finest musicians in the world, 9 of them titled positions, as well as a new Associate Conductor from Australia and Assistant Conductor from Columbia joined the orchestra;

◆ performed over 150 times a season with an expanded repertoire that has something for everyone of all ages;

◆ expanded our educational programs to enhance the appreciation of music for a lifetime;

◆ recorded classical music as well as contemporary and indie music;

◆ innovated in the delivery of our music electronically;

◆ initiated new commercial activities in recording and scoring for films, games, and television;

◆ and made great strides toward stabilizing our financial position.

We are proud of the exceptional talent and diversity of our musicians and artistic leadership that brings our audiences the best orchestral music possible. We are proud of all of the organization’s musicians and staff for their commitment to get from where we were four years ago to where we are today. Most of all, we are proud of the entire community that has made the Colorado Symphony’s resurgence possible.

At the end of the day, it’s all about the music. The 2015/16 season looks to be one of the best ever. We hope you enjoy it and thank you for your continued support.

TAKING THE STAND Colorado Symphony Conductor Search “The acquisition of these two very talented young conductors is a testament to the resurgence of our orchestra as it continues to develop artistically.

We are sure that all of our audiences will enjoy them on the podium.”

— Jerry Kern Colorado Symphony CEO

F

ollowing a comprehensive international search and audition period with more than 200 candidates, eight conductors were selected to come to Boettcher Concert Hall to audition in front of the Colorado Symphony’s orchestra and artistic leadership. The 3-day process included multiple rounds of conducting, individual interviews with artistic leadership, presenting in front of an audience, and more.

The Colorado Symphony is excited to announce that not one, but two new conductors join our organization.

Christopher Dragon joins the Colorado Symphony as Associate Conductor and Andres Lopera joins as Assistant Conductor.

18 SOUNDINGS 2015-2016 | COLORADOSYMPHONY.ORG

CHRISTOPHER DRAGON -

ASSOCIATE CONDUCTOR

C

hristopher Dragon comes to the Colorado Symphony following nearly three years as the assistant conductor of the West Australian Symphony Orchestra (WASO).

Christopher has been an important figure in expanding orchestral music in Australia in recent years, serving as the conductor or director of various organizations, such as the Metropolitan Symphony Orchestra, the South Side Symphony Orchestra, the Western Australia Youth Orchestra’s Philharmonic Orchestra, and others.

In recent years, Christopher has been busy performing internationally, including being selected in 2014 to conduct the Princess Galyani Vadhana Youth Orchestra in Thailand and participating in the Jarvi Winter Academy in Estonia, where he was awarded the Orchestra’s Favorite Conductor Prize in 2014.

“It’s a huge privilege to be joining the Colorado Symphony as associate conductor,” Christopher said. “I had such a fantastic time with the orchestra during the auditions and instantly felt a connection with the musicians. I look forward to exploring more of Colorado and immersing myself into American music and culture.”

ANDRES LOPERA -

ASSISTANT CONDUCTOR

A

ndres Lopera is a leading Latin American orchestral artist in the United States, with nearly a decade of work in both North and South America.

In 2012, Andres was appointed music director of the Metropolitan Youth Symphony in Portland, Ore., where he oversaw more than 460 students. In recognition of his contributions to Portland, Andres received the Portland Monthly Award, Rising Star Award, and the Hispanic Metropolitan Chamber Bravo Award.

Andres’ previous experiences include conducting the Oregon Symphony, Toledo Symphony, New World Symphony, National Repertory Orchestra, and Portland Columbia Symphony Orchestra. He has also worked with professional and youth orchestras throughout Central and South America, including orchestral groups in Colombia, Brazil, Uruguay and Honduras, and also led the Youth Orchestra of the Americas musical camp.

“I am thrilled and sincerely honored to join the Colorado Symphony,” Andres said. “I look forward to connecting with the Colorado community and to contributing to this wonderful organization.”

Bringing on these two new conductors is a testament to the growth of the Colorado Symphony both artistically as well as in the depth and variety of programming that has become enough work for two conductors to share. As Associate Conductor, Christopher will make his Masterworks concert debut at the Shakespeare Festival on March 18-20 at Boettcher Concert Hall, and both Christopher and Andres will conduct Pops, Inside the Score, Family Series, and additional concerts and events during the upcoming 2015/16 season.

NEW MUSICIAN SPOTLIGHT The Colorado Symphony is proud of the reputation it has as one of the premier orchestras in the world. Because of that, we have musicians from all over the world that audition for a full time role on our stage.

The interesting part of auditions for new Colorado Symphony musicians is that the auditions are completed blind, meaning that the auditioning musicians and those choosing who proceed through auditions don’t meet until after the process is completed and musicians are chosen. There is a screen set up so that the musician can’t been seen, the musician does not talk, and there is even carpet to assure the sound of the shoes doesn’t give anything away. Therefore there are no gender, racial, age, or other demographic biases during the audition process, only the best musical talent.

Leah Kovach – Viola Leah comes to Colorado from Houston. Leah is a founding member of the Houston-based Calliope String Quartet, which completed its first concert tour this July visiting cities in Italy, Austria, and Slovenia. For the past three years, Leah also worked as a music coach for multiple schools, including the Kinkaid School Orchestra’s 2012 tour of China and has taught master classes at the Conservatorio Anna Maria Valencia in Cali, Colombia.

Ben Odhner – First Violin Ben Odhner became a member of the Colorado Symphony in 2014 after receiving his Master of Music degree from Rice University, and in 2015 he won the position of Fixed 4th Chair in the first violin section. Earlier in his career, Ben was a member of the YouTube Symphony Orchestra, which performed at Carnegie Hall as part of the first International Classical Music Summit brought together through the internet.

Phil Hembree – Second / Assistant Principal Trumpet Before coming to Colorado, Phil was completing his Master of Music in Trumpet Performance from Rice University. Phil is also an avid chamber musician, and specializes in new music. He has worked with several composers to premier new works across the country including most recently a soundtrack recording to the silent film, Cinderella (1922). Phil is excited to move his career to Colorado so that he can take advantage of the great hiking and skiing when he’s not on stage at Boettcher Concert Hall.

© hubls3d / Dollar Photo Club

John Sipher – Principal Trombone John is joining the Colorado Symphony from his home state of Virginia where he was Principal Trombone in the Richmond Symphony Orchestra.

Along with trombone, John also plays the ukulele which is why he’s excited for the upcoming concert featuring Jake Shimabukuro with the Colorado Symphony in October.

SOUNDINGS 2015-2016 | COLORADOSYMPHONY.ORG 21

NEW MUSICIAN SPOTLIGHT CONTINUED Alessandra Jennings Flanagan – Second Violin Alessandra is a graduate of Rice University where she completed her Master of Music degree in violin performance and in 2015 she won the position of Fixed 3rd Chair in the second violin section. Alessandra was a founding member of the Basmati String Quartet, which won the Grand Prize at the Coleman Chamber Ensemble Competition and Second Place at the Fischoff International Chamber Music Competition.

Austin Larson – Assistant Principal Horn Austing recently moved to Colorado from Wisconsin. Austin has been highly successful in many competitions, including First Prize in both the International Horn Competition of America and International Horn Society Premier Soloist Competition. Interesting fact about Austin: as of the start of this 2015/16 season, he is the youngest full time musician with the Colorado Symphony at just 24 years old.

Delcho Tenev – Violin Delcho comes to Colorado from Plovdiv, Bulgaria. He had just finished a Professonal Performance Certificate from Lynn University in Florida, and the audition for the Colorado Symphony was the next day after graduation. Music isn’t Delcho’s only skill — he has also performed as a Bulgarian folk dancer and has competed in mathematic competitions.

Brandon McLean – Principal Bass Brandon is from Seattle, Washington but before coming to Colorado has been performing in Canada with the Vancouver Symphony Orchestra.

Before Vancouver, Brandon completed three world tours with the Pittsburg Symphony. Brandon is already enjoying Colorado for the hiking, fishing, and camping.

Michael VanWirt – Percussion A Colorado native from Longmont, Michael was with the New World Symphony in Miami before returning to Colorado. He’s happy to be back to our mountain state so that he can get back on the trails. In 2012 Michael completed the Colorado Trail, the 190-mile hike from Denver to Durango.

MASTERWORKS PROGRAM NOTES DMITRI KABALEVSKY (1904-1987): Overture to Colas Breugnon, Op. 24 Dmitri Kabalevsky was born on December 30, 1904 in St. Petersburg, Russia, and died on February 14, 1987 in Moscow. He composed his opera Colas Breugnon in 1935-1937. It was premiered on February 22, 1938 in Leningrad, conducted by Boris Khaikin. The score calls for three flutes (third doubling piccolo), three oboes, three clarinets, three bassoons (third doubling contrabassoon), four horns, three trumpets, three trombones, tuba, timpani, percussion, harp and strings. Duration is about 5 minutes. Last performed by the orchestra on September 12-14, 2003, with Marin Alsop conducting.

The 1937 three-act opera Colas Breugnon, generally acknowledged to be Soviet composer Dmitri Kabalevsky’s masterpiece, was based on a novel by the distinguished French man of letters and music Romain Rolland. Rolland, trained as a musicologist, wrote biographies of Beethoven, Handel, Michelangelo, Tolstoy and Gandhi, won the Nobel Prize in 1915 for his ten-volume musical novel Jean-Christophe, and was active and influential as a teacher and administrator in French musical life from the turn of the 20th century until his death in 1944.

His novel Colas Breugnon, The Master of Clamecy (Rolland was born in the Burgundian village of Clamecy) is the imaginary diary covering one year in the life of the title character, a 16th-century master woodcarver. Colas’ chronicle recounts the people and events that touch him during that year — a shrewish wife, an early and still-longed-for lover, a granddaughter, a notary and a curate, as well as a grape harvest, a plague and a peasant uprising — and his philosophy of humor and resilience in the face of difficulty and crisis. “The force of Rolland’s book is not in the narrative, of which there is none to speak,” noted the composer. “Its vigor is in the strength of its characters, first of all in the person of its hero, Colas, in the folk spirit which the whole book breathes, in its great life-asserting optimism, in that love of life with which Rolland has filled every page. It is through these features that Rolland’s book is so near and comprehensible to us.... These are the features that my librettist and I strove to preserve in the opera.” The novel enjoyed amazing popularity in Russia, having run through 120 editions in that country even before Kabalevsky adopted it for his opera. The spirit of wit, bonhomie and youthful vigor pervading the sparkling Overture to Colas Breugnon confirms the comments of the critic Lev Danilevich following the opera’s premiere: “It conveys the fundamental idea of Rolland’s story: a man who is master of his happiness, who boldly walks through life and reshapes it, overthrowing all obstacles in his way.”

MASTERWORKS PROGRAM NOTES SERGEI PROKOFIEV (1891-1953): Piano Concerto No. 2 in G minor, Op. 16 Sergei Prokofiev was born on April 23, 1891 in Sontsovka, Russia, and died on March 4, 1953 in Moscow. He composed his G minor Piano Concerto during the winter of 1912-1913, and was soloist in the premiere on September 5, 1913 at Pavlovsk, a summer resort near St. Petersburg; A.P. Aslanov conducted. The score calls for woodwinds in pairs, four horns, two trumpets, three trombones, tuba, timpani, percussion and strings. Last performance was on September 29, 30, and October 1, 2006, with Joyce Yang as the soloist and Jeffrey Kahane on the podium.

Politics was not the only revolution brewing in Russia in the 1910s. A brash, arrogant student at the St. Petersburg Conservatory was helping to forge a new musical language at the same time, with a forceful assault concentrated on that most hallowed of Romantic instruments, the piano. Prokofiev’s iconoclastic views of modern music engendered his piano style, one that broke from the Romantic, lyrical, virtuoso manner of Chopin and Liszt to create a new sound for a new age. Harold Schonberg, in his excellent volume on The Great Pianists, wrote of Prokofiev’s pianism, “Young Sergei Prokofiev, the pianist of steel, came raging out of Russia, playing his own music and startling the world with his vigor, his exuberance, his wild rhythm, his disdain for the trappings of Romanticism. Gone were romantic color, wide-spaced arpeggios, inner voices, pretty melodies. Prokofiev at the piano attacked the music with a controlled fury, blasting out savage and complicated rhythms, giving or asking no mercy. He decided that the piano was a percussive instrument, and there’s no use trying to disguise the fact that it had hammers.... The anti-Romantic age was under way.”

Prokofiev’s steely piano style was the perfect match for his athletic compositions and his strutting personality. The polite audience of gentry at the summertime premiere of the Second Piano Concerto in 1913 in the fashionable resort of Pavlosk, near St. Petersburg, was “puzzled” by the “mercilessly dissonant combinations,” according to one reviewer. The listeners, disdaining the decorum that they were convinced the young composer had already shattered, greeted the work with a sonorous round of hisses and catcalls. Prokofiev responded with his own characteristic rejoinder: he sat down and thundered through one of his noisiest solo works as an encore. It was not long, however, before his playing and his music gained a wide audience, the fascination and innate musicality of his style sweeping away all initial reservations.

The Second Piano Concerto is a work “full of splinters,” as Prokofiev wrote to Igor Stravinsky.

Through its handling of rhythm, melody and harmony, it achieves a quality of galvanic dynamism unknown in the music of the preceding century. The soloist presents the principal theme of the opening movement; a saucy melody in quicker tempo provides contrast. The formal development and recapitulation of the principal theme are combined into an enormous solo cadenza before the orchestra is recalled to provide a coda. The quiet ending section mirrors the opening measures, bringing the movement round full circle. Prokofiev cited the brief but brilliant Scherzo as an example of his “motoric” style, and this movement, is, indeed, a dashing display of perpetual motion. The soloist, in a mighty exhibition of technique and endurance, plays continuously in octaves without a single beat of rest or one long note throughout the entire movement. The slower third movement is in Prokofiev’s best nose-thumbing, wrong-note idiom. The opening and closing sections of this movement make much use of a chugging bass ostinato, with the middle section given over to music of a more gentle character. The finale is a dazzling showcase for the soloist. The lightning-flash opening section returns to finish the SOUNDINGS 2015-2016 | COLORADOSYMPHONY.ORG PROGRAM 5

MASTERWORKS PROGRAM NOTES movement, but in between are themes of contrasting character in which the soloist frequently charges forth alone, the orchestra sitting silently amid the pianistic fireworks. In his Second Concerto, Prokofiev created a daring, virtuoso tour-de-force of pianism that remains as vibrant and exciting today as when it aroused its first hearers in the waning days of Imperial Russia.

o SERGEI RACHMANINOFF (1873-1943): Symphony No. 3 in A minor, Op. 44 Sergei Rachmaninoff was born on April 1, 1873 in Oneg (near Novgorod), Russia, and died on March 28, 1943 in Beverly Hills, California. He composed his Symphony No. 3 in 1935-1936; it was premiered on November 6, 1936 in Philadelphia, conducted by Leopold Stokowski. The score calls for piccolo, two flutes, two oboes, English horn, two clarinets, bass clarinet, two bassoons, contrabassoon, four horns, three trumpets, three trombones, tuba, timpani, percussion, celesta, harp and strings.

Duration is about 37 minutes. The Symphony No. 3 was last performed on May 21-23, 2004, with Jeffrey Kahane conducting the orchestra.

Following the burst of creative activity between 1895 and 1910 that brought forth three piano concertos, two symphonies, two operas, a symphonic poem and the “choral symphony” The Bells, Sergei Rachmaninoff did not issue another work for orchestra until the Fourth Piano Concerto of 1927. After being forced from his beloved Russian homeland by the 1917 Revolution, he established a career as a pianist and conductor in Europe and the United States whose enormous success almost completely prohibited composition. His return to the orchestral idiom with the Fourth Concerto was poorly received (he revised the score extensively in 1941), and it took him until 1934 to gather enough courage to try again. That attempt — the splendid Rhapsody on a Theme of Paganini — met with exceptional acclaim, and encouraged him to undertake a long-delayed successor to the Second Symphony of 1907. The Third Symphony was begun on June 18, 1935 at his Swiss villa, “Senar,” on Lake Lucerne, not far from “Triebschen,” the house in which Wagner lived from 1866 to 1872. (“Senar” was named for SErgei and his wife, NAtalyia, Rachmaninoff.) Though he had to spend three weeks taking the waters at Baden-Baden for his rheumatism in July, he finished the first movement by August 22nd and the second movement a month later. By then, however, it was time for him to again begin his strenuous annual international tours, and the Symphony had to await its completion until June 1936. It was finished exactly three decades after the Second Symphony.

As do his two earlier works in the genre, Rachmaninoff’s Third Symphony opens with a motto theme that returns in later movements. The motto, here presented immediately in unison by clarinet, muted horn and cellos, is a small-interval phrase derived from the style of ecclesiastical chant. A few measures of vigorous orchestral warming-up introduce the movement’s main theme, a doleful plaint issued by the double reeds. The second theme is a lovely, lyrical strain, initiated by the cellos, which gives testimony that Rachmaninoff retained his wonderful sense of melodic invention throughout his life. (He was 63 when he finished the score.) Following a development section of considerable ingenuity and rhythmic energy, the two principal themes are recalled in the recapitulation. The motto theme returns quietly in

MASTERWORKS PROGRAM NOTES the trumpet and bass trombone and then in the pizzicato strings to bring the movement to a subdued close.

The second of the Symphony’s three movements combines elements of both a traditional Adagio and a Scherzo. The motto theme in a bardic setting for horn accompanied by strummed harp chords is heard to open the movement. The solo violin gives out the principal theme of the Adagio, a languid melody in triplet rhythms; the flute presents a graceful complementary idea that ends with a cadential trill. These two motives are elaborated until a sudden change of tempo and the introduction of a bustling rhythmic figure usher in the Scherzo section of the movement. An abbreviated recall of the music of the opening Adagio rounds out the movement, to which the motto theme played by pizzicato strings serves as a tiny musical benediction.

The finale is a virtuosic tour-de-force for orchestra. (The work was written for Stokowski’s Philadelphia Orchestra.) The main theme, presented by violins and violas, is a motive of martial vigor; the contrasting second theme, given by the strings doubled by harp (Rachmaninoff demonstrated a remarkable skill in orchestrating for percussion, celesta and harp in this work), is chordal in shape and lyrical in style. The center of the movement is a thorough working-out of the melodic materials, beginning with a fugal treatment of the main theme. As a bridge to the recapitulation, Rachmaninoff employed the Dies Irae (“Day of Wrath”), the ancient chant from the Roman Catholic Requiem Mass for the Dead that courses like a grim musical marker through the Isle of the Dead (1907), Paganini Rhapsody (1934), Second Symphony, Third Symphony and Symphonic Dances (1940). This evocative traditional tune as well as the Symphony’s motto theme are woven into the recapitulation of the movement’s earlier motives. A brilliant coda brings the work to an exhilarating close. ©2015 Dr. Richard E. Rodda

That’s why it’s a good idea to make your final arrangements in advance so that they reflect your unique needs, hopes and aspirations.

Only a Dignity Memorial® provider can capture life’s essence by helping you secure a final resting place that’s truly a reflection of you.
