Welcome Dear Friends, Can it really be ten years? A decade has flown by as we have embraced the spirit of Boulder and worked to reflect everything that makes this community so remarkable. We’ve known for a while that the Phil is something special, and this season, your orchestra is being presented as a model of civic engagement and artistic excellence through our invitation to the Kennedy Center’s inaugural SHIFT Festival in March. We’re tremendously excited by this honor and hope that many of you will join us in Washington! Music is all about togetherness—it’s the essence of the word “ensemble,” after all—and our 16-17 season doubles down on this principle as it brings together fascinating combinations of guest artists and unique repertoire pairings. Teamwork is front and center as we feature duos in nearly every concert. Local gems Edward Dusinberre, Geraldine Walther, Charles Wetherbee and Nicolo Spera will shine along with husband-and-wife partners Jennifer Frautschi and Eric Ruske, and classical music’s new dynamic duo—pianists Anderson and Roe, who are media sensations in addition to being brilliant musicians. Along with repertoire staples by Tchaikovsky, Beethoven, Schumann and Rachmaninoff, we are sharing some unusual and provocative works, including two world premieres. “Adventurer-composer” Stephen Lias unveils his tribute to Rocky Mountain National Park in March (complete with photos choreographed to the music), and British composer Stephen Goss presents a unique concerto for violin and guitar, written specifically for our hometown soloists. In March, nature-and-music favorites return, with Jeff Midkiff’s bluegrass-infused mandolin concerto, the cinematic Ghosts of the Grasslands and Frequent Flyers’s inimitable take on Copland’s Appalachian Spring. And our season comes to a dramatic conclusion with an Italianate program highlighted by the sonic splendor of The Pines of Rome. The Phil is also teaming up with Boulder favorite, Jake Shimabukuro, for some high-energy ukulele excitement that has to be seen and heard to be believed. We’re also a part of your holidays, with our ever-popular Nutcracker performances with Boulder Ballet AND A Wicked Good Christmas featuring the fabulous Dee Roscioli, one of Broadway’s biggest stars, in an evening of holiday favorites along with memorable hits from Wicked and many others. All season long, your Phil will also be busy sharing the magic of music with young people through our school visits and Discovery Concerts for elementary students, as well as two sensory-friendly chamber concerts at the Boulder Public Library specifically designed for children with autism and their families. Of all the pairings we’ll enjoy this season, the most important, by far, is the partnership between our orchestra and you. The Phil plays an invaluable role in our community, and YOU, our patrons and supporters, are the engines of our success. I feel uniquely privileged to have shared this journey with you for the past ten years. I look forward to many more, and I thank you for joining us as we celebrate a season of musical togetherness! Enjoy,

Michael


As one of Colorado’s premier ensembles, the Boulder Philharmonic Orchestra is creating a new model for American orchestras through dynamic performances that reflect our community’s own values, creativity, and sense of place. Voted “Best of Boulder” for the past four years in a row, today’s Boulder Phil is bucking national trends with growing, enthusiastic audiences under the vision and leadership of Music Director Michael Butterman. This season, we are proud to be one of four orchestras nationally to be featured in the SHIFT Festival of American Orchestras at the Kennedy Center in Washington, D.C. The Boulder Phil’s main concert series—broadcast state-wide on Colorado Public Radio—is presented at Macky Auditorium, a historic jewel on the University of Colorado campus. From multi-genre productions featuring dance, choral and visual elements to concerts with a unique hometown flavor, the Phil’s imaginative programming has resulted in increasing numbers of sold-out concerts and nationwide notice in Symphony Magazine. In recent seasons the Phil has collaborated with an impressive 45 local organizations, encompassing arts, science, nature, youth, social services and more. By going beyond simply performing great repertoire, we strive to connect ever more people to the inspiring power of orchestral music. Recognized as “Boulder’s premier orchestra” (Boulder Weekly) and “Boulder’s superb local professional orchestra” (Daily Camera), the Boulder Phil is comprised of the top freelance musicians from Colorado’s Front Range and beyond. Founded in 1958, the Boulder Phil’s recent history was shaped by notable music directors Oswald (Ozzi) Lehnert (1972-1996) and Theodore Kuchar (1996-2006), under whose leadership the Boulder Phil became a fully professional ensemble. Today the Boulder Phil reaches audiences of over 20,000, with performances from Arvada to Highlands Ranch as well as regular invitations to perform at the prestigious Vilar Performing Arts Center in Beaver Creek. The Boulder Phil strives to inspire the next generation of music-lovers through Discovery Concerts that have reached thousands of 4th and 5th grade students in 28 schools across three counties. For decades the Phil has also fostered new talent with the annual Young Artist Concerto Competition, and Boulder Phil musicians provide mentorship through side-by-side concerts with the Greater Boulder Youth Orchestras and Front Range Youth Orchestras. In all these ways, the Boulder Phil strives to be at the center of our community’s cultural fabric.

About the Boulder Phil


Community Engagement The Boulder Philharmonic believes that live orchestral music is for everyone. We are committed to providing a wide array of opportunities for people throughout our community to encounter the life-enriching power of classical music. Whether here at Macky or out in the wider community, our programs are bringing more music to more people in more ways than ever before.

EDUCATION “Mr. Butterman’s energetic spirit and great sense of humor really make the concerts come alive.”

• Discovery Concert 2017 takes students in grades 3-6 on a journey to explore orchestral music in a fun, interactive format featuring nationally-acclaimed Music Director Michael Butterman. • In-school visits with a Boulder Phil chamber ensemble highlight instrument families, composers, interdisciplinary themes, and plenty of time for student questions. • Meet the Maestro! Through his classroom visits, Maestro Butterman becomes a resource for area music educators, sharing his infectious enthusiasm and musical expertise with students. • Side-by-side concerts with Greater Boulder Youth Orchestras pair our professional musicians with student musicians, providing them with a valuable in-concert mentorship experience. • $5 student tickets to every Masterworks concert make attendance affordable and increase access for students from Kindergarten age through college. Phone and walk-up sales only.

OUTREACH A series of sensory-friendly concerts created especially for families of children on the autism spectrum provide a safe environment to experience the joy of live arts performances in a welcoming setting. Through partnership with Boulder Open Space & Mountain Parks, we offer guided musical hikes and “stroll-to” chamber music performances that complement our programming and connect the community with the natural world through music. Pre-concert talks before every performance offer insights on the evening’s program, featuring a variety of presenters including our Guest Artists, collaborators and Music Director Michael Butterman.

GLENN ROSS

Meet Michael Butterman

As a guest conductor, Mr. Butterman has led many of the country’s preeminent ensembles, including the Cleveland Orchestra, Philadelphia Orchestra, National Symphony, Detroit Symphony and Houston Symphony. In the 16-17 season, he will return to conduct the National Symphony for three weeks of concerts at the Kennedy Center, as well as to conduct Canada’s Victoria Symphony in the fall. Other recent appearances include performances with the Colorado Symphony, Oregon Symphony, Phoenix Symphony, Kansas City Symphony, Colorado Music Festival Orchestra, Charleston Symphony, Hartford Symphony, San Antonio Symphony, Syracuse Symphony, New Mexico Symphony, Santa Fe Symphony, California Symphony, Louisiana Philharmonic, Spokane Symphony, El Paso Symphony, Mobile Symphony, WinstonSalem Symphony, Pensacola Opera, Asheville Lyric Opera and Victoria Symphony (British Columbia). Summer appearances include Tanglewood, the Bravo! Vail Valley Music Festival and the Wintergreen Music Festival in Virginia. Mr. Butterman gained international attention as a diploma laureate in the Prokofiev International Conducting Competition and as a finalist in the prestigious Besançon International Conducting Competition. As the recipient of the Seiji Ozawa Fellowship, he studied at Tanglewood with Robert Spano, Jorma Panula, and Maestro Ozawa, and shared the podium with Ozawa to lead the season’s opening concert. Earlier, Mr. Butterman was sponsored by UNESCO to lead the National Philharmonic Orchestra of Moldova in a concert of music by great American masters. For six seasons, Mr. Butterman served as Music Director of Opera Southwest in Albuquerque, NM. During much of that time, he was also Director of Orchestral Studies at the LSU School of Music and was Principal Conductor of the LSU Opera Theater. Previously, he held the post of Associate Conductor of the Columbus Pro Musica Orchestra, and served as Music Director of the Chamber Opera, Studio Opera, and Opera Workshop at the Indiana University School of Music. For two seasons, he was also the Associate Music Director of the Ohio Light Opera, conducting over 35 performances each summer. At Indiana University, Mr. Butterman conducted a highly acclaimed production of Leonard Bernstein’s little-known 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue in a series of performances at the Kennedy Center in Washington, DC, receiving unanimous praise from such publications as The New York Times, Washington Post, Variety, and USA Today. He was subsequently invited to New York at the request of the Bernstein estate to prepare a performance of a revised version of the work. Michael Butterman’s work has been featured in six nationwide broadcasts on public radio’s Performance Today, and can be heard on two CDs recorded for the Newport Classics label and on a new disc in which he conducts the Rochester Philharmonic and collaborates with actor John Lithgow. www.michaelbutterman.com
