PROGRAM NOTES Overture to Oberon (1826) Composer: Carl Maria von Weber (1786-1826) Nationality: German Era: Romantic Weber was commissioned to write a new opera especially for London. He based Oberon on the same folk tale that inspired Shakespeare to write A Midsummer Night’s Dream. Weber did not finish the overture to Oberon until only a few days before the premier. Unfortunately, he was suffering from advanced tuberculosis and died in London just six weeks after Oberon opened.

The overture starts with an opening horn motive followed by muted strings. Picture the misty woods of the elf king Oberon and his court. Faeries are prancing around in the woods, softly and delicately. Then Oberon arrives majestically.

Cello Concerto No. 1 in C (~1765) Composer: Joseph Haydn (1732-1809) Nationality: Austrian Era: Classical Haydn served the noble Esterházy family as kapellmeister for thirty years, during which he wrote prolifically in the forms he helped establish: the string quartet and the symphony. Living far from any major cities, Haydn was, in his own words, 'forced to become original.'

The concerto you will hear today was lost for 200 years, only turning up in a Prague museum in 1961.

All three movements are in a traditional Baroque style. The opening moderato evokes a courtly dance. The second movement is a sweet and gentle adagio. The finale is a rousing allegro which gives soloists a chance to display their skill.

Peer Gynt Suite (1875) Composer: Edvard Grieg (1843-1907) Nationality: Norwegian Era: Late Romantic Grieg was invited by Norwegian playwright Henrik Ibsen to compose this incidental music for his epic play of the same name. Ibsen's play is based on a Norwegian fairy tale. Grieg's belief in Norwegian nationalism led him to draw on Norwegian folk tunes for his music.

Each movement of Peer Gynt tells part of Peer's exciting story. First Peer crashes a wedding and is chased into the woods (Ingrid's Lament). He fends off a troll king's daughter who has fallen in love with him (In the Hall of the Mountain King), his mother dies (The Death of Åse), he sails to Africa as an arms dealer and camps on the beach (Morning Mood). Enemies blow up his yacht and while he is marooned a temptress comes and dances for him (Anitra’s Dance).

Peer returns home as an old man. But the button maker (the Norwegian version of the grim reaper) is there to take his soul.

Fortunately for Peer, he is saved by the long-suffering Solveig, who has been in love with him through the whole story (Solveig’s Song). student orchestras of greater olympia

Nolan Welch, cello soloist 'The Haydn is a classical staple concerto in cello repertoire,' says Nolan. 'Playing it represents the history that it has acquired since its discovery in the 1960s. So, although it is a concerto written in the classical style, it has only surfaced in a modern, contemporary era in which all the greats have played. I like it because it is easily moldable into a style that fits the player's taste; there is a lot of stylistic freedom.'

Nolan began playing cello at age 4 and has been with SOGO for 8 years. Last year he created an original arrangement of The Beatles' Yesterday for performance by a cello quartet.

Nolan is a senior at Timberline HS and serves on SOGO's Executive Student Board. His plans for next year are still up in the air, but we're sure he will be successful in whatever course he pursues.
