We open the season with a performance of a new composition by our own Music Director, William “Bill” Hill. Entitled From Silence and Isolation for Orchestra, Soprano, and Tenor, this profound work explores the emotional impact of the isolation COVID forced upon us all, as well as the catharsis of emerging from this ordeal. Here’s what Bill has to say about this work:

“This piece is a commentary on what we’ve all been through in the last year and a half, particularly how the musical arts were silenced, and everyone has been isolated. It describes the sense of loss and isolation, the social unrest, and questions of inequality and violence in our society. The final two sections are all about reconciliation, with a peaceful uplifting theme that uses every chromatic note of the scale. The word chromatic is derived from Ancient Greek language and means “using all the colors”. I use all the colors in this piece as a metaphor for my hopes that all people will join together as we lift each other out of this difficult time and move forward in peace and mutual respect.”

Next, we are thrilled to announce that Yumi Hwang-Williams, the concertmaster of the Colorado Symphony, will be joining us to perform Joseph Bologne’s Violin Concerto, Op. 3, No. 1. Joseph Bologne, Chevalier de Saint-Georges, was a colonel on the side of the Republic during the French Revolution, a champion fencer, a violin virtuoso, and is now considered one of the first known classical composers of African ancestry. A highly prolific composer and conductor, his Violin Concerto, Op. 3, No. 1 is one of his most popular works..

Our Season Opener closes with a performance of Ludwig van Beethoven’s Symphony No. 2, Op. 36 in D Major. One of the final works of Beethoven’s so-called “Early Period”, Beethoven’s second Symphony was composed between 1801 and 1802 as he was experiencing worsening deafness – and beginning to realize it may be permanent and incurable. The work was premiered in Vienna on April 5th, 1803, alongside his Piano Concerto No. 3, Op. 37, and his oratorio “Christus am Ölberge”, Op. 85.

In addition, we’ve decided to offer live-stream tickets at a number of different price points – so you can choose how much you’d like to pay!

Our actual cost to produce this event is around $50 per ticket. We offer live-streaming tickets at prices ranging from $5 – $200 – it’s completely up to you. 

All we ask is that if you are able to pay more for a ticket, please do. Even just a few dollars really does make a difference!
