WELCOME
O
n behalf of my fellow musicians, the staff and the board of trustees of the Colorado Symphony, I would like to welcome you to Boettcher Concert Hall. I have been Principal Percussionist since 1985 and have enjoyed participating in the musical growth of this fabulous orchestra. I have been privileged to serve on many different committees including the Artistic, Negotiating, Finance and Orchestra Committees. It is great to see the collaborative model working so well for the Colorado Symphony. We are very excited to have Andrew Litton as our new Music Director and look forward to many years of wonderful music-making with him. One of the enjoyable aspects of my job is the widely diverse programming that we offer. We could be playing a Mahler symphony one day and collaborating with DeVotchka the next. Our season offers something for everyone, from classical to rock and roll, and everything in between. Our musicians are extremely versatile and easily switch hats as needed. Part of my job is to represent the Colorado Symphony in a small group that performs chamber music in schools for children throughout the Denver metropolitan area. It’s great to see the joy and surprise in the kids’ faces as they hear the instruments up close. For some of these children, this is their first exposure to symphonic music. Our goal is to develop life-long listeners with a love for live performances. We rehearse during the day in an empty hall and are always thrilled to play for live audiences. Thank you for being here. We appreciate your attendance and your support of the Colorado Symphony.

SPONSOR SPOTLIGHT Arrow Electronics
W
hen Arrow Electronics consolidated its headquarters in metro Denver in late 2011, we quickly established a partnership with the Colorado Symphony. We did this out of a fundamental conviction that the creative process in the arts and innovation in Arrow’s world of electronics are intrinsically connected. We strive to guide the symphony forward as it enriches our community. And through our support we hope to set an example to our 17,000 employees in Colorado and around the world to not only enjoy the arts, but to apply the same spirit of innovation and creativity to their own work and lives. We are proud to sponsor Colorado Symphony performances as the orchestra extends its reach deeper into Denver and across Colorado. But Arrow’s investment goes beyond a typical corporate sponsorship. We commissioned a new musical composition that would reflect the company’s commitment to innovation. What emerged was an original piece representing the Arrow brand, “Five Years Out.” In this piece, Colorado Symphony Resident Conductor Scott O’Neil utilizes themes of technology and a five-note scale to generate the new refrain for Arrow’s “Five Years Out” brand. If you listen closely, you will hear A-R-R-O-W spelled in musical notes, while the rhythm spells “arrow” in Morse code. The composition debuted in 2013 and we now use it as our musical logo in advertisements and on our website. Maestro O’Neil is working to expand the original overture into a full orchestral composition. Together, we have created a new partnership committed to innovation. We hope this partnership sustains not only Arrow and the CSO, but also the community we share. Thank you for joining us in supporting the Colorado Symphony.

The Future in Mind Why is education so important to the Colorado Symphony? The answer is a no brainer. The musicians of the Colorado Symphony are a brainy bunch. Every single member of the orchestra has spent countless hours studying and practicing, learning scores and perfecting a range of skills that culminate in flawless performances. According to recent research, musicians are brainy because they play music – an idea with exciting implications for the future of education and the performing arts. Over the past decade, a mountain of data has illustrated the sometimes surprising ways in which music shapes us, starting with our brains. Moving along a continuum that gets stronger with time, music can positively affect everything from IQ to mood. For example: •C hildren with three or more years of training on a musical instrument demonstrate advanced motor skills, verbal and nonverbal reasoning, and auditory discrimination, according to a 2008 study by researchers at Harvard University and Boston College. • S cores on the SAT rise incrementally for each year of high school music instruction, according to the College Board. •M usicians who practice daily scored significantly higher on tests of mental function than people with little or no musical training, according to a study by St. Andrew’s in Scotland, suggesting that even moderate amounts of musical activity have a positive impact on brain function. Of course, music’s benefit extends beyond the brain. Young people who participate in music activities in and outside of the classroom do better in school, are more likely to

graduate on time and attend college. Whether or not a child follows a path leading to an orchestra chair or another career in music, early exposure to music can increase their chances for success and enjoyment at every stage of life. Knowing all of this, can you imagine what would happen if quality music education were available to every single boy and girl in Denver and across Colorado? How might our future work force, our culture, our city look, sound and function if every citizen had access to the transformative power of music? As a resource and partner to the community, the Colorado Symphony is actively engaged with these and other questions. Education has been central to the orchestra’s mission for more than seventy years, as field trips to Boettcher Concert Hall have been a tradition for generations. Music education is key to living our mission, enriching our community – and securing our future. How do we serve the youth, and the future, by providing access to high-quality music education that supports whole-child development? How do we support the schools, teachers and school districts by providing tools and experiences that build on
the school-day experience? And how do we ensure the future of the Colorado Symphony by engaging new audiences in ways that are exciting, relevant and fun? One way is to continue to build on the success of our highly popular Colorado Symphony Kids program, which is informed by music teachers as well district arts coordinators from across metro Denver. This season, we welcomed more than 30,000 elementary, middle and high school students to Boettcher Concert Hall, with concerts that span everything from the music of Latin America and French Impressionism to math and the natural cycles of life. As funding for field trips and arts-based experiences has declined in recent years, our commitment to students of all backgrounds has increased. Colorado Symphony youth concerts are provided at no cost to schools with a high percentage of Title I students, one of the leading indicators of childhood poverty. More than 60% of students who attend Colorado Symphony Kids youth concerts receive scholarships; transportation assistance is also available to qualifying schools. The response from teachers is overwhelmingly positive. continued on page 18

Conrad Kehn of the Playground Ensemble leads the Very Young Composers program at Englewood Elementary School. The program launches at Cole Arts and Sciences Academy in February, in partnership with the Colorado Symphony. “Please continue to give kids in the metro area this opportunity,” wrote Betsy McGurk, music teacher at Virginia Court Elementary School in Aurora, after receiving a scholarship for a group of fifth-grade students. “I can understand the financial commitment this effort must take but please know that our students
Petit Musique and Once Upon a Time The Petit Musique program introduces the joy of a 16-person chamber ensemble to children and their parents and teachers, in local programs presented close to home. This spring’s program, “The Three Bears,” runs April 22-May 20 at venues across metro Denver. Presented throughout the year, the Once Upon a Time series brings Colorado Symphony musicians into schools to share musical versions of classic and contemporary folk tales for children from preschool to second grade.

benefit in so many ways far beyond the obvious ones. I have been bringing students to hear you for nearly ten years and I have students in high school and beyond who come to me and tell me, ‘I remember when you took us to hear the symphony. That was awesome!!!’” Exciting things are ahead, as the Colorado Symphony launches two initiatives designed to broaden and deepen our impact on Colorado youth. First piloted in December in partnership with Denver TV8, the Distance Learning Project will eventually provide broadcasts of youth concerts to teachers and classrooms, creating a virtual experience of a live youth concert; eventually, we envision making these broadcast available to schools in rural and remote communities. And in February at Cole Arts and Science Academy in Five Points, we will launch the Very Young Composers, which teaches students as young as eight to create original pieces of music, using expressive tools available to all children. These compositions are then performed for students, teachers and family by professional orchestra musicians. Originally developed by bassist Jon Deak, former CSO

Composer in Residence and children’s advocate at the New York Philharmonic, the Very Young Composers is currently active at schools in Manhattan and around the world. In Denver, the Colorado Symphony will join with the Playground Ensemble, composed of faculty from Lamont School of Music at the University of Denver, to bring the program to more students and schools. We have lots of ideas about why these programs are important: supporting the whole-child development of the youth, educators and families of our community is not only good for our community, it’s good for the future of symphonic music. Who knows what will happen when we make these types of programs available to more and more children? When we all do our part to support the development of our children, starting with their young minds – and their brains? We can’t wait to find out.
Hearing from Kids We were happy to welcome fifth graders from Virginia Court Elementary School in Aurora to the October 23 “Music of Life” concert at Boettcher Concert Hall. Here’s some of what they said: “It was an inspiration coming to your concert.”

“I liked all of the instruments. They’re awesome. The conductor did a great job. I liked how he made the music go loud and soft. Thank you CSO. It was awesome.” — Alison “Tell the violin players I was amazed at how fast they could play their violins.” — Karen

ITZHAK PERLMAN, violin Undeniably the reigning virtuoso of the violin, Itzhak Perlman enjoys superstar status rarely afforded a classical musician. Beloved for his charm and humanity as well as his talent, he is treasured by audiences throughout the world who respond not only to his remarkable artistry, but also to his irrepressible joy for making music. Having performed with every major orchestra and at venerable concert halls around the globe, Itzhak Perlman was granted a Kennedy Center Honor in 2003 by the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts in celebration of his distinguished achievements and contributions to the cultural and educational life of the United States. He has performed multiple times at the White House, most recently in 2012 at the invitation of President Barack Obama and Mrs. Obama, for Israeli President and Presidential Medal of Freedom honoree Shimon Peres; and at a State Dinner in 2007, hosted by President George W. Bush and Mrs. Bush, for Her Majesty The Queen and His Royal Highness The Duke of Edinburgh. In 2009, Perlman was honored to take part in the Inauguration of President Obama, premiering a piece written for the occasion by John Williams alongside cellist Yo-Yo Ma, clarinetist Anthony McGill and pianist Gabriela Montero, for an audience of nearly 40 million television viewers in the United States and millions more throughout the world. Born in Israel in 1945, Perlman completed his initial training at the Academy of Music in Tel Aviv. He came to New York and soon was propelled to national recognition with an appearance on the Ed Sullivan Show in 1958. Following his studies at the Juilliard School with Ivan Galamian and Dorothy DeLay, he won the prestigious Leventritt Competition in 1964, which led to a burgeoning worldwide career. Since then, Itzhak Perlman has established himself as a cultural icon and household name in classical music.

Following highly successful engagements in China in the summer of 2013, Scaglione returns this season to conduct the China Philharmonic and Shanghai Symphony. He will also travel to Madrid to conduct the Orquesta Clásica Santa Cecilia. In 2011, Scaglione was the recipient of the prestigious Conductor’s Prize by the Solti Foundation U.S. That same year he was one of three Conducting Fellows at Tanglewood, chosen by James Levine and Stefan Asbury. Scaglione received his bachelor’s degree from the Cleveland Institute of Music. He later studied at the Peabody Institute with Gustav Meier.
