Light Cavalry Overture (1866)

By Franz von Suppé (1819-1895) Franz von Suppé was an Austrian conductor and a composer of light operas. His most successful works include Light Cavalry and Poet and Peasant. He also wrote choral works, a symphony, and string quartets.

Light Cavalry is a two-act operetta.

The overture draws together a range of styles including trumpet fanfares, military marches, and Hungarian style folk music.

Audience members will likely recognize parts of this overture from film soundtracks, cartoons, and commercials.

About the Music

Symphony No. 7, Op. 92: II. Allegretto (1812)

By Ludwig van Beethoven (1770-1827)

German composer Ludwig van Beethoven created some of the most influential music in history. His works include nine symphonies, sixteen string quartets, one opera, and many pieces for piano and other solo instruments.

"Beethoven’s seventh symphony is one of the most difficult and exhausting symphonies ever written. The whole symphony is a common sight in the repertoire of any professional orchestra, but the second movement is often excerpted and played by itself. The somber, march-like style lends itself well to funerals and solemn scenes in movies, and many youth orchestras perform this movement by itself as it is the most accessible of the four and can be combined with other pieces to make a more varied program, as I have done with SOGO." ~ Cameron May

About the Music

Shortcut Home (1998)

Capriccio Italien, Op. 45 (1880)

Maestro May describes Shortcut Home as "very rhythmic, borrowing stylistic elements from jazz and funk in a manner not usually found in standard orchestral repertoire." It was commissioned in 1998 by Hillsborough High School in New Jersey.

Peter Illych Tchaikovsky is a popular Russian composer best known for his ballets Swan Lake, Sleeping Beauty, and the holiday favorite The Nutcracker. All three are staples of the ballet repertoire.

Tchaikovsky attended the St. Petersburg Conservatory as a young man and later spent six years traveling Europe and Russia, supported by a wealthy patron.

By Dana Wilson (1946-present)

The works of Dana Wilson have been commissioned and performed by such diverse ensembles as the Chicago Chamber Musicians, Formosa Quartet, Canadian Brass, Detroit Chamber Winds and Strings, Buffalo Philharmonic, Xaimen Symphony, Netherlands Wind Ensemble, Syracuse Symphony, and Tokyo Kosei Wind Orchestra.

Dana Wilson holds a doctorate from the Eastman School of Music and is Professor Emeritus at the Ithaca College School of Music.

Source: danawilson.org/bio

By Peter Illych Tchaikovsky (1840-1893)

Capriccio Italien is based on Italian folk melodies Tchaikovsky heard during his travels to Italy. It opens with a fanfare based on a bugle call from the military barracks near his hotel in Rome. The work has emotional slow parts, lilting melodies, and ends with a big bang, as if all of Rome is celebrating.
