Welcome For more than a hundred years, The Cleveland Orchestra has been part of the Northeast Ohio community — through thick and thin, from wartime to peace, in moments of sadness and triumph. Although much has changed in our daily lives and routines in recent weeks, the Musicians, Music Director President & CEO Franz Welser-Möst, and all of us at The Cleveland Orchestra remain deeply committed to the people of our great community. Music can lift spirits and inspire hope for the future. While we cannot offer live performances in April and May this spring, we are working to share our music and do everything we can to help make the world a better place. Through our longtime partnership with ideastream, we’re privileged to offer the people of Northeast Ohio — including listeners online — Cleveland Orchestra performances every day of the week, with weekend concert broadcasts on Saturday evening and Sunday afternoons, and with Lunchtime with The Cleveland Orchestra every weekday. Through these, we offer you the opportunity to turn your focus away from the here and now, and reflect on the wonder and beauty of musical performances from across our great ensemble’s history. I hope these presentations will provide you with some musical nourishment for your soul — and a respite from each day’s challenges in these uncertain times. We wish you and your family good health — and together we look forward to The Cleveland Orchestra’s future live performances.

André Gremillet President & CEO The Cleveland Orchestra

@HOME LISTENING GUIDE

Listen to more music and stay connected. “I believe that it is important for each of us to discover the spark within us, to find the fire that matters, and to put that fire to good use — to make a difference in this world. It is up to each of us, it is up to you to do something with your life. But I firmly believe that great art and great music can help lead you to that moment of choice. Art can help identify what excites us and what makes each of our lives different. It can unite us with others in commonality and agreement. It can inspire and encourage the good in each of us.” —Franz Welser-Möst

Your support means more than ever. Thank you. More personal protective equipment. More research. And more lives saved.

We’re grateful for the generosity shown across our community, and to all Ohioans who have done their part to help flatten the curve. Your actions have allowed our heroes to address this crisis, while also continuing their invaluable everyday work. Over the last couple of months, more than 1,200 individuals and businesses donated in support of our COVID-19 response efforts. Because of you, University Hospitals received more than 500,000 masks and more than 30,000 meals, tested thousands of patients, began clinical trials, expanded new drug research and cared for our frontline caregivers. Thank you, Northeast Ohio. To learn more about our efforts – and the ways you can be here for our heroes – visit UHGiving.org.

Dorota Sobieska, Ph.D., Executive Artistic Director

Salutes The Cleveland Orchestra with Its

25th Anniversary Season 2020-2021 A Message from Howard Simon, M.D. President of The Cleveland Opera Dear Friends of The Cleveland Orchestra, In these difficult times, how pleasant it was to get our renewal material for our Cleveland Orchestra subscription. The thought of listening to our brilliant orchestra again, to their wonderful programs, brings joy to a stressful time. It reminds us of the great musical opportunities that Cleveland has to offer. I would like to introduce you to, or remind you of, one of those fantastic opportunities. The Cleveland Opera (formerly known as Opera Circle) was founded in 1995 by Jacek Sobieski and his wife, Dr. Dorota Sobieska, seven years after they moved to the United States from their native Poland. The founders’ expertise, hard work and dedication to music resulted in producing 57 different opera titles in 24 years. In addition to beloved opera classics, our company produced several lesser known works by composers from Cleveland’s culturally diverse communities, such as Thamos, King of Egypt by Mozart/El-Dabh, Król Roger by Szymanowski, and Die tote Stadt by Korngold, to mention a few. Last year, The Cleveland Opera produced Gershwin’s masterpiece Porgy and Bess at Mimi Ohio Theatre, Playhouse Square, with fifteen African American singers, all of whom reside in Northeastern Ohio. Every season since 2006, our company has collaborated on a full-scale opera classic with The Cleveland Women’s Orchestra. Another major reason for our company’s longMarriage by Lantern-Light lasting success has been our connection to the by Jacques Offenbach community. We produced free chamber operas performed in a variety of community venues, including staged works by Mascagni, Schumann, Offenbach, Bellini, and Wolf-Ferrari. Our company has been featured annually at the popular summer event Opera in the Italian Garden. As President of the Board of Trustees, I am looking forward to more operatic adventures, a bright future, and significant service provided by our company in Cleveland, for Cleveland, and with Cleveland.

Franz Welser-Möst Music Director Kelvin Smith Family Endowed Chair The Cleveland Orchestra

Franz Welser-Möst is among today’s most distinguished conductors. The 2019-20 season marks his eighteenth year as music director of The Cleveland Orchestra, with the future of this acclaimed partnership extending into the next decade. The New York Times has declared Cleveland under Welser-Möst’s direction to be the “best American orchestra“ for its virtuosity, elegance of sound, variety of color, and chamber-like musical cohesion. Under his direction, The Cleveland Orchestra has been praised for its inventive programming, its ongoing support for new musical works, and for its innovative approach to semi-staged and staged opera presentations. An imaginative approach to juxtaposing newer and older works has opened new dialogue and fresh insights for musicians and audiences alike. The Orchestra has also been hugely successful in building up a new and, notably, a young audience. As a guest conductor, Mr. WelserMöst enjoys a particularly close and Severance Hall 2019-20

productive relationship with the Vienna Philharmonic. He has twice appeared on the podium for their celebrated New Year’s Concert, and regularly conducts the orchestra in subscription concerts in Vienna, as well as on tours in Japan, China, Australia, and the United States. Highlights of his guest conducting appearances in the 2019-20 season include performances of Strauss’s Die Aegyptische Helena at Teatro alla Scala, and concerts with the New York Philharmonic, Leipzig Gewandhaus Orchestra, and Amsterdam’s Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra. Mr. Welser-Möst is also a regular guest at the Salzburg Festival, where his work leading a series of opera performances has been widely acclaimed. Franz Welser-Möst’s recordings and videos have won major international awards and honors. With The Cleveland Orchestra, his recordings include a number of DVDs on the Clasart Classic label, featuring live performances of five of Bruckner’s symphonies and a multi-DVD set of major works by Brahms. A number of his Salzburg opera productions, including Rosenkavalier, have been released internationally on DVD by Unitel. In June 2019, Mr. Welser-Möst was awarded the Gold Medal in the Arts by the Kennedy Center International Committee on the Arts in recognition of his long-lasting impact on the international arts community. Other honors include recognition from the Western Law Center for Disability Rights, honorary membership in the Vienna Singverein, a Decoration of Honor from the Republic of Austria for his artistic achievements, and the Kilenyi Medal from the Bruckner Society of America.

THE

is today hailed as one of the very best orchestras on the planet, noted for its musical excellence and for its devotion and service to the community it calls home. The 2019-20 season marks the ensemble’s eighteenth year under the direction of Franz Welser-Möst, one of today’s most acclaimed musical leaders. Working together, the Orchestra and its board of trustees, staff, and volunteers have affirmed a set of community-inspired goals for the 21st century — to continue the Orchestra’s legendary command of musical excellence while focusing new efforts and resources toward fully serving its hometown community throughout Northeast Ohio. The promise of continuing extraordinary concert experiences, engaging music education programs, and innovative technologies offers future generations dynamic access to the best symphonic entertainment possible anywhere. The Cleveland Orchestra divides its time across concert seasons at home — in Cleveland’s Severance Hall and each summer at Blossom Music Center. Additional portions of the year are devoted to touring and intensive performance residencies. These include recurring residencies at Vienna’s Musikverein, and regular appearances in European music capitals, in New York, at Indiana University, and in Miami, Florida. Musical Excellence. The Cleveland Orchestra has long been committed to the pursuit of excellence in everything that it does. Its ongoing collaboration with Welser-Möst is widely-acknowledged among the best orchestra-conductor partnerships of today. Performances of standard repertoire and new works are unrivalled at home and on tour across the globe, and through recordings and broadcasts. The Orchestra’s longstanding championing of new composers and the commissioning of new works helps audiences experience music as a living language that grows with each new generation. Fruitful juxtapositions and re-examinations of classics, new recording projects and tours of varying repertoire and in different locations, and acclaimed collaborations in 20th- and 21st-century masterworks together enable The Cleveland Orchestra the ability to give musical performances second to none in the world. Serving the Community. Programs for students and engaging musical explorations for the community are core to the Orchestra’s mission, fueled by a commitment to serving Cleveland and surrounding communities. All are being created to connect people to music in the concert hall, in classrooms, and in everyday lives. Recent seasons have seen the launch of a unique series of neighborhood initiatives and performances, designed to bring the Orchestra and the citizens of NorthPHOTO BY ROGER MASTROIANNI

Each year since 1989, The Cleveland Orchestra has presented a free concert in downtown Cleveland, with last summer’s for the ensemble’s official 100th Birthday bash.

east Ohio together in new ways. Active performance ensembles and teaching programs provide proof of the benefits of direct participation in making music for people of all ages. Future Audiences. Standing on the shoulders of more than a century of quality music education programs, the Orchestra made national and international headlines through the creation of its Center for Future Audiences in 2010. Established with a significant endowment gift from the Maltz Family Foundation, the Center is designed to provide ongoing funding for the Orchestra’s continuing work to develop interest in classical music among young people. The flagship “Under 18s Free” program has seen unparalleled success in increasing attendance — with 20% of attendees now comprised of concertgoers age 25 and under — as the Orchestra now boasts one of the youngest audiences for symphonic concerts anywhere. con Innovative Programming. The Cleveland Orchestra was among the first Cl Clev American orchestras heard on a regular Ame series seri of radio broadcasts, and its Severance anc Hall home was one of the first concert halls hallll in the world built with recording and h broadcasting capabilities.

An Enduring Tradition of Community Support. The Cleveland Orchestra was born in Cleveland, created by a group of visionary citizens who believed in the power of music and aspired to having the best performances of great orchestral music possible anywhere. Generations of Clevelanders have supported this vision and enjoyed the Orchestra’s performances as some of the best such concert experiences available in the world. Hundreds of thousands have learned to love music through its education programs and have celebrated important events with its music. While strong ticket sales cover less than half of each season’s costs, the generosity of thousands each year drives the Orchestra forward and sustains its extraordinary tradition of excellence onstage, in the classroom, and for the community. Evolving Greatness. The Cleveland Orchestra was founded in 1918. Over the ensuing decades, the ensemble quickly

grew from a fine regional organization to being one of the most admired symphony orchestras in the world. Seven music directors have guided and shaped the ensemble’s growth and sound: Nikolai Sokoloff, 1918-33; Artur Rodzinski, 193343; Erich Leinsdorf, 1943-46; George Szell, 1946-70; Lorin Maazel, 1972-82; Christoph von Dohnányi, 1984-2002; and Franz Welser-Möst, since 2002. The opening in 1931 of Severance Hall as the Orchestra’s permanent home brought a special pride to the ensemble and its hometown. With acoustic refinements under Szell’s guidance and a building-wide restoration and expansion in 1998-2000, Severance Hall continues to provide the Orchestra an enviable and intimate sound environment in which to perfect the ensemble’s artistry. Tour-

ing performances throughout the United States and, beginning in 1957, to Europe and across the globe have confirmed Cleveland’s place among the world’s top orchestras. Year-round performances became a reality in 1968 with the opening of Blossom Music Center. Today, concert performances, community presentations, touring residencies, broadcasts, and recordings provide access to the Orchestra’s acclaimed artistry to an enthusiastic, generous, and broad constituency at home throughout Northeast Ohio and around the world.
