BRENT HART, President Oklahoma Philharmonic Society, Inc. Welcome to the (re)IMAGINE(d) 2020-21 season. It has been a long journey to get here and, on behalf of the OKC Phil family, we are so happy to have you join us. Music has the power to heal, to inspire and to unite in unmatched ways and I hope that you have enjoyed connecting with us through social media since last season. None of us could have imagined how much we would long for the opportunity to be together for this concert. The OKC Phil plays a leading cultural role in Oklahoma City, providing Classics, Pops and Discovery concerts. Maestro Alexander Mickelthwate along with Executive Director Agnieszka Rakhmatullaev and her team have worked tirelessly to bring music to the stage, and your screens, this season. New this year, we are adding smaller ensemble performances in community settings to connect with new audiences. In addition to these performances, our community engagement and music education programs reach music lovers of all ages. We are grateful to our patrons, donors and volunteers for your ongoing support. We also thank the Orchestra League and the Associate Board for their volunteer and fundraising efforts that make these programs possible. Now sit back, leave the world outside and enjoy the story that unfolds through each note.
KRISTEN BRANDT FERATE, President Oklahoma City Orchestra League This Season the Oklahoma City Philharmonic embarks on a (re)IMAGINE(d) adventure. The Oklahoma City Orchestra League is honored to support this historic undertaking. The orchestral experiences offered this season will change the collective perspective. The Orchestra League, founded in 1948, will move forward with our great and celebrated legacy. We will support music education and fundraising efforts of the Philharmonic. We will share in the knowledge gained from new forms of musical education, volunteerism and appreciation. The Orchestra League membership offers a chance to witness history and help shape the future of symphonic music in our great city. I invite you to join us!

DAVID WHITE, President Associate Board On behalf of the Associate Board, welcome to the 2020-21 (re)IMAGINE(d) season.

From Beethoven to Broadway, we have something in store for everyone. The Associate Board brings together civic-minded young professionals to support and fulfill the mission of the PHIL. There’s more to the Philharmonic than concerts. From classrooms to community outreach, the OKCPHIL is working to spread the joy of orchestral music across our state--and the Associate Board is proud to be a part of that work.

ALEXANDER MICKELTHWATE Beginning his third season as Music Director of the Oklahoma City Philharmonic, Conductor Alexander Mickelthwate’ s exciting musical programming has created a buzz across the city, drawing people from all walks of life to the concert hall. Originally from Germany Mickelthwate is also Music Director Emeritus of the Winnipeg Symphony Orchestra in Canada. Since starting his Winnipeg tenure in 2006 he played a pivotal role in the rejuvenation and turnaround of the Winnipeg Symphony which culminated in a highly successful and critically acclaimed performance at Carnegie Hall in May 2014. The New York Times noted the performance was “conducted expertly,” and the New York Classical review stated “under music director Alexander Mickelthwate, they play with excellent intonation and such a fine overall blend and balance of sound that, on their own terms, they may be the best orchestra to appear in the week’s worth of concerts.” Deeply rooted in his German heritage, Norman Lebrecht wrote about Mickelthwate’s interpretation of Mahler’s 10th Symphony with the Winnipeg Symphony: “Both Mahler 10 performances were intense and engaging. Every twist and turn in the score was fresh and surprising to my ears.” And his interpretation of Bruckner’s Symphony No. 7 prompted the pianist Anton Kuerti to write a letter to the newspaper saying, “I would like to call attention to the stunning performance heard after the intermission. To play Bruckner’s Symphony No. 7 with the passion, profundity, emotional intensity, subtlety and degree of perfection achieved by conductor Alexander Mickelthwate and the Winnipeg Symphony can only be called miraculous.” In North America Alexander has guest conducted the New York Philharmonic, the Chicago Symphony, Seattle Symphony, Houston Symphony, Vancouver Symphony, Atlanta Symphony, Saint Paul Chamber Orchestra, Saint Luke’s, Milwaukee Symphony, Rochester Philharmonic and Toronto Symphony, among others. His European debut was with the Hamburg Symphony. He also conducted the BBC London, Stuttgart Radio Orchestra, Royal Scottish, Deutsche Kammerphilharmonie Bremen and NDR Hannover. Other notable performances include the Sao Paulo Symphony and the Simon Bolivar Orchestra in Venezuela. He made his Australia debut with the Adelaide Symphony and the Tasmania Orchestra where he recorded the Mozart piano concerti Nos. 7 and 10 with the Silber Garburg Duo. Alexander Mickelthwate has worked several times with Dame Evelyn Glennie conducting the world premiere of two new
percussion concerti by Vincent Ho. He also worked with Itzhak Perlman, Joshua Bell, Yuja Wang, Dawn Upshaw, Plácido Domingo, Ben Heppner, Horatio Gutiérrez, Emanuel Ax, Leonidas Kavakos and Sarah Chang, among many others, and he worked very closely with a wide range of composers including Phil Glass, Steve Reich, Sofia Gubaidulina, Kaija Saariaho, John Adams, John Luther Adams and Mason Bates. After guest conducting the Simon Bolivar Orchestra and experiencing the life-changing power of the El Sistema program in Venezuela for underprivileged children, Alexander played an instrumental part in creating Sistema Winnipeg. For three years Alexander created a critically acclaimed Indigenous Festival in Winnipeg. Passionate to connect with all cultures, he created artistic collaborations between First Nations and western cultures that culminated in the performances of Stravinsky’s Rite of Spring and Revueltas’ Les Noches de loss Mayas with new choreographies of contemporary and First Nations dance. The Winnipeg New Music Festival is an international institution. Alexander broadened the repertoire and created many new collaborations connecting with different audiences. Because of the programming of the festival the WSO was chosen to perform at the Spring for Music Festival at Carnegie Hall in 2014. A few of the most creative projects of the festival for Alexander were the performance of movie director Guy Maddin’s Brand Upon a Brain with narration by actress Isabella Rossellini, the workshopping of a new opera Tesla by movie director Jim Jarmusch and composer Phil Klein, and a production of Gavin Bryar’s The Sinking of the Titanic at PanAm Pool. Alexander has conducted for President Jimmy Carter and the Queen of England, and he received the Queen Diamond Jubilee Medal and the Key to the City of Winnipeg. Born and raised in Frankfurt Germany to a musical family, Alexander received his degree from the Peabody Institute of Music. He studied conducting under Fredric Prausnitz and Gustav Meier as well as with Seiji Ozawa, Andre Previn, Daniel Barenboim and Robert Spano at Tanglewood. Following his tenure as Assistant Conductor with the Atlanta Symphony Orchestra, which he completed in 2004, Alexander was Associate Conductor of the Los Angeles Philharmonic for three years, under the direction of Esa-Pekka Salonen. He is married to fashion designer Abigail Mickelthwate and has two sons.

AGNIESZKA RAKHMATULLAEV Welcome to the OKCPHIL’s (re)IMAGINE(d) Season. After a long pause, we are thrilled to be back and thank you for joining us on this journey! While the majority of concert stages across the country remain silent, we wanted to find a way to continue our mission and bring live orchestral music to you and our community. With everyone’s safety and well-being as our top priority, we had to reimagine nearly every single aspect of our operations: from programming choices for each concert, to accommodating the needs of our patrons, continuing our partnership with area schools, and many more. Orchestrating the plan for each individual area required creative thinking, out-of-the-box approaches, collaboration, and a lot of hard work. We are pleased to present to you this unique season, shaped around the challenges of the unprecedented times we live in. While this season might look and feel different, many of its components will remain the same, perhaps with a few twists. The OKCPHIL’s Classics and Pops series will continue to bring high-caliber performances, presented in smaller settings to create a more intimate experience. The programming will
continue to be shaped by Maestro Mickelthwate’s artistic vision and desire to combine traditional repertoire with today’s music. And, of course, you will continue to be blown away by the talented musicians of our orchestra, some of whom will be featured as guest soloists. As part of this unique season, you will also notice a few new and exciting initiatives. Our concerts will be digitally available for those patrons who are not able to join us in the hall. Additionally, our musicians will frequently be performing in smaller settings in venues across the city, as part of our expanded Education and Community Engagement programs. We are excited about these new opportunities, as we broaden our reach, serve more people, and become more accessible in a different way. Of course, none of this would be possible without YOU, our loyal patrons! We are sincerely grateful for your ongoing support, generosity, flexibility, and understanding that allow us to keep the music playing on our main stage, on your screen, or in your neighborhood. While we continue to navigate these turbulent waters, the OKCPHIL is committed to serving our mission as we strive to bring healing, unity, and hope to our entire community.

RESTROOMS are conveniently located on all levels of the theater. Please ask your usher for guidance. LATECOMERS and those who exit the theater during the performance may be seated during the first convenient pause, as determined by the management, and as is possible while maintaining safe social distancing. ELECTRONIC DEVICES must be turned off and put away during the performance (no calling, texting, photo or video use please). BEVERAGES: Bottled water is permitted in the theater at the Classics Series concerts. Beverages are permitted in the theater at the Pops Series concerts; however, bringing coffee into the theater is discouraged due to the aroma. Beverage stations will be located on floors 1-4. SMOKING in the Civic Center Music Hall is prohibited. The Oklahoma City Philharmonic promotes a fragrance-free environment for the convenience of our patrons. FIRE EXITS are located on all levels and marked accordingly. Please note the nearest exit for use in case of an emergency. ELEVATORS are located at the south end of the atrium of the Civic Center Music Hall. CHILDREN of all ages are welcome at the Philharmonic Discovery Family Series and Holiday Pops performances; however, in consideration of the patrons, musicians and artists, those under five years of age will not be admitted to evening Classics and Pops concerts unless otherwise noted. BOOSTER SEATS for children are available in the Civic Center lobby. Please inquire at the Box Office. VIDEO MONITORS are located in the lobby for your convenience. WHEELCHAIR AVAILABLE SEATING – Persons using wheelchairs or with walking and climbing difficulties will be accommodated when possible.

Please inform the Philharmonic or Civic Center Box Office staff of your need when ordering tickets so that you may be served promptly and appropriately. Please request the assistance of hall ushers to access wheelchair seating. HEARING LOOPS have been installed. Ask your audiologist to activate the telecoil in your hearing aid or cochlear implant. Due to the mechanics of the stage, the hearing loops do not reach the pit section but are available at concession stands, the Box Office and the Thelma Gaylord Performing Arts Theatre. The copper wire in the floor and telecoil work together to connect the hearing device to the theater’s sound system using a magnetic field which dramatically improves sound clarity for patrons using hearing devices.
