DE TROIT SYMPHONY ORCHESTRA • SPRING 2015 9
Welcome Dear Friends, You may or may not realize that where you’re sitting right at this very moment, surrounded by original woodwork and early 20th century murals, is one of the world’s greatest concert halls. Orchestra Hall was built in 1919 to the meticulous specifications of then DSO music director, Ossip Gabrilowitsch, and has remained one of the most acoustically-perfect spaces in which to hear an orchestra play. These four walls have played a direct role in elevating this ensemble as a cultural asset to Detroit, which is why we’re so proud our beautiful music now emanates far beyond them. In November we debuted Live From Orchestra Hall: Classroom Edition in every Detroit Public School K-8 classroom. Thanks to support from the Mandell and Madeleine Berman Foundation, some 45,000 students locally and across the nation experienced a live DSO concert, a first for many of them. In May, we’ll debut a new look for this groundbreaking educational tool to an even larger audience. Learn more on page 32. And nearly every week, thousands of people worldwide tune in to to our Live From Orchestra Hall classical performances at dso.org/live as virtual DSO audience members. On page 14 you’ll read about multiple places where you can hear your DSO, in the months after the Orchestra Hall Classical season concludes in late May. This season we announced the renaming of our Neighborhood Concert Series for the late William Davidson, who pioneered the idea that DSO performances in suburban venues would be both a necessary and rewarding way to connect with the community that sustains us. Much of the repertoire you’ll hear during the remainder of the season was designed to be heard in a concert hall like the one in which you’re enjoying the current performance; pieces like Bruckner’s Symphony No. 4 (April 24-25) or Mahler’s Symphony No. 1 (May 21-23) require a large stage and superior acoustics for maximum enjoyment. The smaller, more intimate stages in our neighborhoods allow us to share smaller-scale works in an environment that places you, the audience, in the middle of the action. We encourage you to check out dso.org/neighborhood and participate in the full recognition of Mr. Davidson’s dream.

Anne Parsons President and CEO James B. and Ann V. Nicholson Chair

Meet the Musician WEI YU Principal Cello, James C. Gordon Chair
T
he announcement that Wei Yu would join the DSO as its new principal cello couldn’t have come at a better time. DSO Music Director Leonard Slatkin was in New York to conduct at Avery Fisher Hall where Yu performed in the cello section for eight years as a member of the New York Philharmonic. Slatkin announced Yu’s position with the DSO that week at SubCulture, New York’s new music and performing arts club, where Slatkin’s closest friends from the industry celebrated his 70th birthday and digital release of his greatest hits album. Yu was in attendance and thrilled that Slatkin invited him on stage to make the announcement. “When I was growing up, I heard about the DSO and its history of legendary conductors,” Yu said. “And now here I am, principal cellist in this orchestra. Wow, it’s overwhelming!” Yu grew up in Shanghai where he was first exposed to music when his great uncle took him to hear Yo-Yo Ma. Soon after, he began his cello studies at the Shanghai Conservatory of Music, then moved to Calgary, Canada when he was 18 to attend Mount Royal University’s Morningside Music Bridge program, later to North Park University in Chicago for an undergraduate degree and finally to the Juilliard School for a master’s degree. “It’s quite amazing how life takes you

on such an incredible adventure,” he said. “Being a member of the New York Philharmonic taught me a lot about being a professional musician, how to always perform at my highest level and always be mentally on top of my game. My first concert as a member of the orchestra was actually its opening gala, featuring Yo-Yo Ma himself. I couldn’t believe it.” Now that he is settled in Detroi, Yu looks forward to working with fellow DSO musicians and colleagues on a personal level to share his passion for music in all settings. “During my first week in Detroit I felt very strongly that the DSO is a group of passionate musicians who devote their time to serving the local community,” Yu said. “Classical music has the power to connect with people and unite them. The DSO plays a significant role in the culture of the city and is a beacon for civic pride. I am very proud to be part of the team.” In his first week with the DSO, Yu opened Ginastera’s Variaciones Concertantes and received praise from Detroit Free Press classical music critic Mark Stryker. “Nearly all of the soloists made strong impressions, but special mention must go to new principal cellist Wei Yu… The grace, poise, liquid legato and purity of tone and pitch that Yu produced in these few moments were stunning in their authority and beauty — a very good sign for the future of the orchestra.” dso.org

Distinguished Donor Spotlight MONA AND RICHARD L. ALONZO
After Mona and Richard Alonzo arrived in the suburbs of Detroit in 1968, they became subscribers to the Detroit Symphony Orchestra, making frequent trips to Detroit. The DSO is proud to celebrate the longstanding support of Gabrilowitsch Society members Richard and Mona Alonzo, as well as their son Richard Alonzo and his wife Jiehan, now Governing Members and strong supporters of the DSO in their own right. “The important thing to us is to encourage people to go to the hall to hear the exceptional music, which is what really matters. Get them attending. The effort the DSO is putting forth to expose young people is really positive for the future of the orchestra, and we truly feel that the orchestra has been rejuvenated over the past three seasons.” A family tradition, Mona, Dick, Jiehan and Richard, all subscribe to the Saturday Classical Series. They are thrilled with the changes happening in Midtown and the surrounding area and only see growth in Detroit’s future. “We want the DSO to thrive, for the sake of the city,” they said. “We support it so that it can continue to grow and exist for all generations. Our support is an investment in Detroit.” The DSO is grateful for the Alonzo family’s dedication to the music and their motivation to inspire all generations to not only attend concerts, but also to support the overall mission of this organization and to deliver unsurpassed musical experiences that embrace and inspire individuals, families and the communities. dso.org
