SUMMARY:Carmen in Concert with Denyce Graves
DESCRIPTION:Join the Richmond Symphony for a spectacular final event of their Altria Masterworks series\, featuring Mezzo-Soprano Denyce Graves in a concert performance of Bizet’s Carmen (un-staged)\, in partnership with Virginia Opera. \nRecognized worldwide as one of today’s most exciting vocal stars\, Denyce Graves continues to gather unparalleled popular and critical acclaim in performances on four continents. USA Today identifies her as “an operatic superstar of the 21st century\,” and the Atlanta Journal-Constitution exclaims\, “If the human voice has the power to move you\, you will be touched by Denyce Graves.” \nBizet’s Carmen was the most famous of the composer’s operas\, introducing an unfamiliar element of realism to the form. Audiences were taken aback by the female protagonist’s unscrupulous behavior. Displays of crude femininity are augmented by staged knife fights and choruses of smoking cigarette-factory girls. Set in 19th century Spain\, the opera presents themes of love\, jealousy\, and free will\, as Carmen operates on her own agenda: seductive and intimate on one note\, sardonic and hedonistic the next. Though she meets an untimely death at the hands of a discarded lover\, this powerful character is immortalized in the operatic cannon; defined by her passionate nature\, respected for strong will\, and remembered for the music that carries her story. \nLearn more about Denyce Graves\, Mezzo-Soprano. \nLearn more about Steven Smith\, Conductor. \nSlatten-MacDonald Fund of The Community Foundation Serving Richmond and Central Virginia \n  \n  \nSeries Sponsor \nMedia Sponsor \n  \n  \n  \n

SUMMARY:Influence of the World: The Tucker-Boatwright Concert
DESCRIPTION:As a grand finale to conclude the University of Richmond’s Tucker Boatwright Festival\, the Richmond Symphony Orchestra and Chorus will present a concert of works inspired by non-Western traditions featuring the world premiere of a new work for chorus and orchestra by Reena Esmail\, as part of our Altria Masterworks series. \nDespite disliking the term “impressionism” applied to his music\, Debussy describes his three Nocturnes in almost painterly terms: Nuages (Clouds) renders the immutable aspect of the sky and the slow\, solemn motion of the clouds\, fading away in gray tones slightly tinged with white. Fetes (Festivals) gives us the vibrating\, dancing rhythm of the atmosphere with sudden flashes of light. But the background remains persistently the same: the festival with its blending of music and luminous dust participating in the rhythm. Sirenes (Sirens) depicts the sea and its innumerable rhythm. Among the waves\, silvered by moonlight is heard the mysterious song of the Sirens as they laugh and pass on. Work on the Nocturnes was not easy for Debussy. His personal life was a wreck. In financial trouble and broken up from his longtime mistress\, he wrote\, “The three Nocturnes have been infected by my private life\, first full of hope\, then full of despair\, and then full of nothing!” \nLike Debussy\, Ravel is classified as an impressionist composer. His Rapsodie espagnole\, is saturated with musical color; almost as breathtaking as the color of the impressionist painters. There is a certain vagueness of form in the music that is reminiscent of Monet and Turner. “Suggestion and atmosphere” are key ideas for the musical impressionists. Ravel’s fascination with Spanish culture is heard throughout the piece\, permeated with the flavors of Spanish music. \nIn the late 1920s\, the Canadian composer Colin McPhee “quite by accident heard [a] few gramophone records that were to change [his] life completely. The clear\, metallic sounds were like the stirring of a thousand bells\, delicate\, confused\, with a sensuous charm\, a mystery that was quite overpowering.” McPhee moved to Bali where he quickly absorbed the culture. He started incorporating Balinese materials into his own music. Tabuh-Tabuhan was his first large-scale orchestral work to use Balinese musical material. Interested in fusing western orchestral traditions with Balinese motifs\, McPhee considers it a purely personal work. \nLearn more about Joanne Kong\, Keyboard.\nLearn more about Paul Hanson\, Piano.\nLearn more about Steven Smith\, Conductor. \nProgram Notes \n  \nSeries Sponsor \nConcert Sponsor \nConcert Partner \nMedia Sponsor \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n

SUMMARY:Rachmaninoff 1 & Tchaikovsky 6
DESCRIPTION:Experience the power of exceptional music with the Richmond Symphony and Guest Artist Adam Neiman\, piano. This Altria Masterworks concert will feature Rachmaninoff’s Piano Concerto No.1 in F-sharp Minor\, Op.1\, Tchaikovsky’s  Symphony No. 6 in B Minor\, Op. 74\, and Music Director Steven Smith’s Kataklysmos.  \nGrammy Award-nominee Adam Neiman has captured the attention of audiences and critics alike since his Los Angeles debut at age 11 at Royce Hall. He is hailed as one of the foremost pianists of his generation\, with a distinguished international career and an encyclopedic repertoire that spans more than sixty concerti. Having performed with a number of leading orchestras and ensembles\, Neiman is celebrated for his commanding musicianship and exceptional technique. \nRachmaninoff wrote and performed his First Piano Concerto while he was still a student at the Moscow Conservatory. After a disappointing initial reception\, the composer eventually reworked the piece\, refining its orchestral design\, while maintaining its characteristically youthful enthusiasm. The piano’s dominant role in the piece was a clear vehicle to show off Rachmaninoff’s talent as a pianist. With effusive piano passages and sumptuous orchestral accompaniment\, the listener will hear the emergence of all the musical skills the composer has become known and reputed for. \nAfter he finished writing  Symphony No. 6\, “Pathetique\,” Tchaikovsky confessed\, “I consider this symphony the best thing I have ever done. In any case\, it is the most deeply felt. And I love it as I have never loved any of my compositions.” In this piece\, Tchaikovsky attempted to capture the essence of life and the fullness of human feeling. The first movement is characterized by an initial theme that is full of impulsive passion\, followed by a second theme that is slow and hushed. The second and third movements divert from a traditional symphony\, with a distorted waltz and an unexpected march\, both based on descending melodic motives\, giving it a brooding and sorrowful character. The symphony ends with the same gloominess with which it begins. \nRichmond Symphony audiences know of Steven Smith as their Music Director. However\, he is also an award-winning composer. Steven Smith says through his music\, he attempts to convey the magnificence\, breadth and life force of the natural world\, “I believe in the inter-connectedness of all things. Through my compositions I hope to raise overall awareness of the importance of our environment\, its residents\, human and otherwise\, and foster an appreciation and reverence for the world we all share.”  Smith’s Kataklysmos was inspired by the ancient and continuing effects of geologic forces upon the earth’s landscape. Moving through volcanic eruption\, stillness\, evolution\, and re-formation\, the piece ends with boisterous rhythmic activity\, reflecting emotions akin to childhood feelings of awe at being surrounded by such a magical natural realm. \nLearn more about Steven Smith\, Conductor. \nLearn more about Adam Neiman\, Piano. \nProgram Notes \n  \nSeries Sponsor \nGuest Artist Sponsor \nMedia Sponsor \n  \n  \n  \n

SUMMARY:Beethoven's Emperor & Mahler 5
DESCRIPTION:Due to expected inclement weather and for the overall safety of our patrons\, musicians\, and event staff\, the Richmond Symphony is cancelling its Altria Masterworks Beethoven Emperor & Mahler 5 Concert on SUNDAY\, January 13th at 3:00pm. We will be reaching out to ticket-holders via e-mail or phone to discuss alternative ticketing options. \nOur Altria Masterworks Concert on Saturday\, January 12th at 8:00pm will continue as scheduled. Click the Buy Tickets link above to purchase tickets for Saturday’s performance. \n\n\n  \nIf you have any questions\, feel free to contact Patron Services via phone at 804-788-1212 x2 or e-mail at patronservices@richmondsymphony.com. \n\nWe thank you for your patronage\, support\, and understanding. \n\n\n\n\n  \n  \nJoin the Richmond Symphony and guest artist Orion Weiss on piano\, for a breathtaking evening of musical excellence. This Altria Masterworks concert features Beethoven’s Piano Concerto No. 5 Opus 73 “Emperor\,” as well as the epic masterpiece that is Mahler’s Symphony No. 5 in C-Sharp Minor. \nBeethoven wrote this concerto while Vienna was under siege by Napoleon’s armies. “What a disturbing\, wild life all around me\,” Beethoven wrote to his publisher\, “nothing but drums\, cannons\, men\, misery of all sorts.” The piece has a wide dynamic range that opens with a striking first movement\, settles into a serene hymn-like adagio\, and moves through to a triumphant rondo finale. \nWhen Gustav Mahler conducted the first performance of his Fifth Symphony in 1904\, it was described as “the giant symphony\,” due to the immense demands placed on the orchestra. The first movement is a sort of funeral march. It begins with a single trumpet announcing the main theme. The entire orchestra eventually takes up this theme\, building to a powerful climax before yielding to a more lyrical\, plaintive melody. Eventually\, the lighthearted waltz crashes its way back in and struggles with the darker theme\, prevailing triumphantly at the end. The piece moves from sorrow to joy through epic swells of orchestral participation. \nOrion Weiss is one of the most sought-after soloists in his generation of young American musicians.His deeply felt and exceptionally crafted performances go far beyond his technical mastery and have won him worldwide acclaim. \nLearn more about Orion Weiss\, Piano.\nLearn more about Steven Smith\, Conductor. \nProgram Notes \n  \n  \nSeries Sponsor \nConcert Sponsor \nMedia Sponsor \n  \n  \n  \n  \n

SUMMARY:Brahms Requiem\, Barber Adagio
DESCRIPTION:Join the Richmond Symphony and Richmond Symphony Chorus\, with Music Director Steven Smith\, in commemorating the 100th year anniversary of Armistice 1918. This memorable Altria Masterworks program features Brahms’ Ein Deutsches Requiem\, Op. 45\, Barber’s Adagio for Strings and Butterworth’s The Banks of Green Willow.  \nThe dark\, unusually low registers lend an air of reverence and contemplation to Brahm’s Requiem.  In the words of Clara Schumann\, “It is a truly tremendous piece of art which moves the entire being in a way little else does.” \nBarber’s Adagio for Strings is a serious piece of music that is firmly embedded in the consciousness of nearly every American. Composer William Schumann gives a wonderfully concise listening guide: “[Adagio for Strings] is so precise emotionally. It begins\, it reaches its climax\, it makes its point\, and it goes away.” \nGeorge Butterworth wrote his The Banks of Green Willow before World War I even started\, but it is seen as emblematic of the “lost generation” from that war\, and is often played to commemorate it. \nProgram Notes \nLearn more about Steven Smith\, conductor. \nLearn more about Darren K.

It begins\, it reaches its climax\, it makes its point\, and it goes away.” \nGeorge Butterworth wrote his The Banks of Green Willow before World War I even started\, but it is seen as emblematic of the “lost generation” from that war\, and is often played to commemorate it. \nProgram Notes \nLearn more about Steven Smith\, conductor. \nLearn more about Darren K. Stokes\, bass-baritone. \nLearn more about Martha Guth\, soprano. \nRennolds Memorial Concert \nSeries Sponsor \nConcert Sponsor \nMedia Sponsor \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n
