WELCOME Dear Friends, I want to extend a warm welcome to each of you attending this performance. Thank you for coming! I am honored to serve as Executive Director of Ogden Symphony Ballet Association and wish to express my gratitude for your support as I have become acclimated to this new role. As a life-long musician, administrator, and advocate for the arts I am inspired and motivated by the dedication and commitment I have seen from so many donors, patrons, and volunteers. I am extremely enthusiastic about what we can accomplish together. Looking ahead, I am excited about the increase in energy surrounding the blossoming arts scene in Ogden, and the strong consortium of cultural leaders we have around us. I believe that OSBA’s value lies in the ability to connect our community through music and dance; and to bring the countless positive benefits of the performing arts to as many in our community as possible. If you haven’t already, I invite you to join our efforts by sharing your passion with others; bring a friend, persuade a coworker to attend, introduce us to someone new in town. I cannot overestimate the impact of these activities. There are many other ways to make a difference, and I encourage you to contact a staff member if you would like to share your time, talents, or resources. I am eager to get to know each of you, and learn about the facets of OSBA that you enjoy, and where we have room for improvement. I am always open to your feedback—positive or negative. We can only succeed by working together to protect and grow our cherished organization. Melissa Klein, Executive Director

WELCOME
Under the direction of numerous dedicated Board Members and long-serving Executive Directors like Jean Pell (27 years) and Sharon Macfarlane (14 years), OSBA has expanded its programming but remains committed to its mission to enrich the lives of people in northern Utah by sponsoring world-class classical music and dance programming in the Greater Ogden Area. Since its inception, OSBA has presented over 800 performances. In 1949, Beverly Lund and Ginny Mathei decided they wanted to add even more culture to Weber County, so, with the help of a few friends and their husbands’ checkbooks, they brought the Utah Symphony to Ogden for a single performance. The total cost was $400, and three hundred people attended the concert. This 1949 concert was a big success, so the women decided to present even more concerts in Ogden. They organized a committee within the Welfare League (later the Junior League) to raise funds for the Symphony Concerts. Then, in 1957, this committee reformed and incorporated as the Ogden Guild. After a few more name changes and the addition of Ballet West performances in 1982, the organization became the Ogden Symphony Ballet Association.
801.399.9214
In addition, OSBA actively works to engage and educate younger patrons. For example, our Youth Guild has provided generations of high school students with opportunities to serve. We also offer a variety of education classes, from Masterworks Music Detectives to Music and Dance Explorers. And we are partnering with several local community organizations to expand these programs to reach even more children and students. This May, we will present our 3rd Annual Youth Benefit Concert, featuring Young Concert Artist, violinist Bella Hristova. The proceeds from this concert will go to fund music education scholarships for local children. If you would like to know more about any of these programs, please do not hesitate to call our office!

NOTES ON THE PROGRAM by Michael Clive
Andrew Norman (b. 1979)
Play PERFORMANCE TIME: 40 MINUTES
Arts writers have borrowed the word “synesthesia” from neurology to denote a functional “crossing” of the senses—as with the many composers of genius through the centuries who have experienced seeing musical notes as colors. In a looser sense, paintings or photographs are said to be “rhythmic” or “loud.” This approach comes in handy when trying to describe the sounds produced by Norman’s questing, boundary-crossing creativity. Many of his musical subjects are architectural; for example, he has evoked the visual and spatial impressions of architect Frank Gehry’s work in a way that could be compared to Virgil Thomson’s musical “portraits.” In experiencing the Norman sound, it pays to listen for effects that could be described as rhyming, angular, and texturally gleaming— words that could apply equally well to Gehry’s sculptural buildings. Play earned Norman the 2017 Grawemeyer Award for Music Composition. In a 2016 article on his acceptance of the award, the New York Times described Play as “rollicking” and “gaming-influenced.” Here is an excerpt from the composer’s own comments about the work: “… Play is a cycle of pieces, a body of work that I have been writing and rewriting for almost five years. Play explores many different ideas—ideas about choice, chance, free will, and control, about how technology has rewired our brains and changed the ways we express ourselves,
18
about the blurring boundaries of reality in the internet age, the murky grounds where video games and drone warfare meet, for instance, or where cyber-bullying and real world violence converge. Play touches on the corrupting influence of power and the collapse and rebirth of social systems, but it also explores the physicality and joy of instrumental playing, as well as the many potential meanings of coordinated human activity—how the display of massed human synchronicity can represent both the communal best and coercive worst of our race… We flip the switch on a crazy, topsy-turvy world where the percussionists discover that their instruments have all sorts of powers over the rest of the orchestra. They have the power to turn other players on and off, to make them play forwards or backwards, louder or softer, faster or slower, to trade them out one for another or make them rewind and retry ideas again and again until they are gotten right.” Sergei Rachmaninoff (1873–1943)
Vocalise PERFORMANCE TIME: 6 MINUTES
In Vocalise, the absence of words does not suggest an absence of meaning or mood. It is lushly melancholy. Russia’s tradition of art songs is rich in ruminations on the difficulties and sadness of life, and in Vocalise many listeners hear a voice that sings on behalf of anyone who feels trapped by unhappiness. More than one critic has compared the melody’s progress to a caged bird seeking escape, rising to near freedom and then falling back.
symphonyballet.org
801.399.9214
NOTES ON THE PROGRAM In rehearsing to perform Vocalise with Rachmaninoff at the piano, soprano Antonina Nezhdanova expressed regret that the music lacked text. “What need is there of words,” asked Rachmaninoff, “when you will be able to convey everything better and more expressively than anyone could with words by your voice and interpretation?” Sergei Rachmaninoff (1873–1943)
Concerto No. 2 in C minor for Piano and Orchestra, Op. 18 PERFORMANCE TIME: 32 MINUTES
One can hear the brooding depressive as well as the ardent romantic throughout the concerto. In the first movement, marked moderato and written in C minor, an opening of intense foreboding builds through a series of powerful chiming chords in the piano. As the tension builds to a breaking point, the piano’s simulated chiming rolls into a sweeping main theme that is taken up in the violins but quickly engulfs the entire orchestra. From this moment on—indeed, from the very opening bars, with the piano’s lone voice—the concerto announces itself as a hugely scaled musical statement that balances sweeping, melancholy “outdoor” phrases with romantic “interior” melodies. When a rolling theme emerges, its march tempo gives it the quality of an inexorable machine, with only the solo piano to challenge it. Slow chords in the strings open the second movement, an adagio that
801.399.9214
moves from C minor into E major. While the piano delineates a theme through fleet, poetic arpeggios, the overall mood remains melancholy, with a short exchange between orchestra and piano developing the movement’s motifs. Yet this tinge of sadness does not overwhelm—perhaps because of the sense of romance and melodic richness that pervades the whole concerto. Its songful quality, which gave rise to two Frank Sinatra tunes based on just the first movement (“I Think of You” and “Ever and Forever”), takes full flight in the lush, gorgeous third movement, marked allegro scherzando. This movement is built around a melody that is like the distilled essence of romance, and that forms the basis of the song “Full Moon and Empty Arms.” It has been quoted in dozens of movies to convey the exquisite pleasure of love anticipated… and the exquisite pain of love unfulfilled. It can also be said to have saved Rachmaninoff ’s life: when he composed this melody and discussed it with colleagues, it secured his more optimistic outlook on his composing prospects. This is the theme that turned Brief Encounter into a three-handkerchief weepy, and that prompted Marilyn Monroe to tell Tom Ewell, “Every time I hear it I go to pieces!” in The Seven Year Itch. The concerto ends in a flourish of virtuosity and optimism. The last movement, an allegro, opens with an introduction that moves away from the previous movement’s E major, where the music was lush but the emotions lingered in an atmosphere of twilit moodiness. To close, it moves from C minor to C major with ever-increasing tension and energy. The final thematic statements and coda are resolved in C major, in a loud and ecstatic finale.
