The past few years have seen their share of chal-lenges — first, the economic downturn in 2008, followed by the flood less than two years later — but through it all the Nashville Symphony has remained strong, thanks to the generous and enthusiastic support of our community, the com-mitted leadership of our Board of Directors and the determination of our musicians and staff. In the face of every challenge, we have responded by remain-ing focused on our mission while making sure that we are responsible stewards of your support.

Because of you, we greet this new season with genuine optimism and excitement for what lies ahead, and we con-tinue to work toward securing a bright, stable future for our institution. Like everyone else in these uncertain times, we are constantly evaluating our budgets, looking for the most effective ways of achieving more with less. As a result of this sharpened focus on sustainability, we were able to reach more than 201,000 Middle Tennesseans last year through our education and community engage-ment programs — an increase of more than 30,000 over the previous year — while keeping our expenses down.

In the past few months, we have been devel-oping and fine-tuning a long-term strategy to ensure that we are able to grow and maintain our mission of artistic excellence and community service in the years to come. A key part of this strategy includes keeping our building hum-ming with activity every day of the year, whether through event rentals such as weddings and cor-porate meetings, or through additional concert

presentations. As a result, we’ve already started expanding the Schermerhorn Symphony Center concert calendar. Just in the next two months, local audiences will be treated to such diverse offerings as the marching band extravaganza Drumline Live (November 8); the wonderful singer Natalie Merchant performing with the Nashville Symphony (November 13); Western

Swing kings Asleep at the Wheel (December 20); and A Skaggs Family Christmas, featuring coun-try-bluegrass great Ricky Skaggs (December 22).

That’s only the beginning. We have many more fantastic con-cert presentations planned for the new year, with still more to be announced. To see the latest infor-mation, turn to the schedule on p. 54 or visit NashvilleSymphony.org. We’re excited about these addi-tions to our calendar because they will help to enrich the already daz-zling array of music available here in Nashville. But there’s another, very real benefit to all of this activ-ity at the Schermerhorn. With the revenue that we’re able to gener-ate from these concerts and rental events, we will not only guarantee a

promising future for the Nashville Symphony, but we will also be able to serve the community at an even higher level than before.

Thank you for coming to tonight’s concert, and thank you for being such an important part of the Nashville Symphony. Your support allows us to achieve our dream of providing great music and life-changing music education for everyone in Middle Tennessee.

Proudly taking our seat as a supporter of the arts in Nashville.

Only in her early 20s, country star taylor Swift has amassed an impressive list of career achieve-ments. A four-time GRAMMY® winner and the reigning Academy of Country Music Entertainer of the Year, she is also the top-selling digital artist in music history. Now she can add another honor to the list: On Saturday, december 10, Swift will receive the harmony award at the 27th annual Symphony ball, taking place at Schermerhorn Symphony Center.

Each year, the Nashville Symphony presents the Harmony Award to an individual who exemplifies the harmonious spirit of Nashville’s thriving musical community. Past recipients have

We’Re pRoud to be A pARt of ARtobeR nAshviLLe!

Music, theater, opera, dance, visual art — it’s all right here in our own backyard, and this month the Metro nashville arts Commission is partner-ing with dozens of arts and cultural organiza-tions throughout Nashville to highlight the depth and breadth of arts activities in our community. The result is a month-long celebration, artober nashville, and the Nashville Symphony is proud to be a part of it!

October 2011 has been designated as national arts and humanities Month by Americans for the Arts and the National Endowment for the Arts, and that makes it the

perfect time to enjoy the abundant cultural opportunities we have in Middle Tennessee. Artober Nashville encompasses all arts and cultural activities taking place this month, including visual and performing arts, music, craft, film and commercial businesses that present arts activities. In addition, keep an eye out for special “pop-up” events happening in public places around town — part of Artober Nashville’s mission to surprise, delight and engage all members of the Nashville community.

For more information and a complete lineup of events, visit artobernashville.com.

included such Nashville luminaries as Amy Grant, LeAnn Rimes, Dolly Parton, Steve Winwood, Vince Gill, Wynonna and Naomi Judd, Chet Atkins, Martina McBride, Rascal Flatts and Carrie Underwood.

“We feel very honored to present this award to Taylor Swift,” says Music Director Giancarlo Guerrero, “because she is a model of everything that’s great about Nashville’s musical community. Her work as a singer, songwriter and performer proves that great music transcends labels like ‘country’ and ‘pop.’ ”

Moving with her family to Nashville at age 14 to pursue her music career, Swift released her self-titled debut album in 2006. In the five years since, she has topped both the country and pop radio charts, and last year sold more albums than any

other artist in any genre of music. With the release of her latest album, the multi-Platinum Speak Now, Swift has made history on the Billboard Hot 100, charting a record-breaking 11 songs from one album in a single week.

Chaired this year by Laurie Eskind and Vicki Horne, the Symphony Ball is Nashville’s premier winter social event and one of the Nashville Symphony’s two annual fundraisers. Since its inception, the ball has raised a total of more than $6.5 million for the Symphony, sustaining the organization’s mission of achieving excellence in musical performance and educational programs, while engaging the community, enriching audiences and shaping cultural life.

Country band restless heart has rounded up some of Nashville’s finest talent for a very special evening of music with the Nashville Symphony. Taking place october 16 at Schermerhorn Symphony Center, Music with a Mission will raise funds for the nashville rescue Mission, which provides assistance, education programs and much more to the homeless men, women and children of Middle Tennessee.

“Serving our community is a vitally important part of what we do at the Nashville Symphony,” says Jim Mancuso, Vice President of Artistic Administration, “and we’re delighted to support the work of the Mission, which works so hard to improve the lives of our homeless neighbors right here in downtown Nashville.”

In addition to Restless Heart, the lineup includes hit-makers tracy lawrence, Keith anderson, Gary Morris, ricky Skaggs, lee roy parnell and legendary harmonica player Charlie McCoy, with more participants to be announced. Restless Heart’s Dave Innis is serving as Musical Coordinator for Music with a Mission. “When we were approached by the Rescue Mission to host this event, we were so humbled and excited to be a part of something bigger than ourselves,” he says. “To be able to give back to this particular organization is an honor!”

Master of ceremonies for the evening will be WSMV-Channel 4’s demetria Kalodimos. A silent auction with exclusive artist donation items will be set up during the event, and 100 percent of the evening’s proceeds will go to the Nashville Rescue Mission.

nashville Symphony member since: 2002

Since so much of your job happens behind the scenes, could you explain the job of an orchestra librarian? Along with librarian Jennifer Goldberg, I’m in charge of the music for all the musicians onstage. That includes buying or renting the music if we don’t own it, and then preparing the music, which means fixing mistakes, putting in bowings for string players and consulting with the conduc-tor on any special markings he wants put into the music.

Do you find a lot of mistakes? Music is such a complex language that there really is no such thing as printed music without some mistakes in it. Sometimes you have to go through note by note with each player’s part and compare it against the conductor’s copy of the score.

what’s in the nashville Symphony’s music library? We now have 2,200 titles that we own. Basically, any orchestral piece written before 1925 is in the public domain, which means you can buy and own it. But anything still under copyright has to be rented most of the time. So I put in a contract for the rental, the music gets shipped to us, the orchestra plays it, and then I send it back to the publisher.

what drew you to this job? I was a performing horn player for 13 years, most recently with the Charleston Symphony Orchestra, and I was always one of those musicians who brought his own score

to rehearsal. It turned out there was an opening in the music library at the Nashville Symphony, and so I took the job because I was always into study-ing scores and editions. Even though I still miss playing, I enjoy what I do now.

is it essential to have a musical background to do your job? You have to be a musician to be a music librarian, because you have to be able to identify problems with the music before they happen. For instance, we had a piece we were recording last year, by Joseph Schwantner, where a section of the clarinet part hadn’t been properly transposed for the instrument. The piece had been recorded in the past, and each time the clarinet part had been recorded incorrectly. We recorded it correctly for the first time.

you just arranged a new piece, Strauss’s ariadne auf naxos Symphony-Suite, which the Symphony will perform this month. what inspired you to take on this project? Arranging music is kind of like figuring out a puzzle, and I really enjoy that process of putting it all together. In the case of the Strauss piece, the music from his Ariadne auf Naxos opera is absolutely gorgeous, and I couldn’t believe there wasn’t already a suite of this music available. I felt it had to be done, and I did it all on my own time outside of work. The orchestration is for just 32 players, which is a small orchestra for an opera and definitely a very small orchestra for Strauss — something he deliberately did as a contrast to some of his other operas. The sounds he gets out of this group of instruments are amazing — rich and varied and really stunning.

That’s why music education and com-munity engagement are at the very heart of the Nashville Symphony’s mission. Last season, we served 200,000 Middle Tennesseans through our various pro-grams, which make music accessible to people of all ages and backgrounds, and our musicians devoted more than 14,000 hours of their time to teaching, perform-ing and speaking throughout our community.

This fall, we look forward to welcoming students from public, private and home schools to Schermerhorn Symphony Center for such programs as our Gaylord Entertainment Foundation Young People’s Concerts, which com-bine the thrill of live music with key educational concepts. And on October 1, we welcome every-one to the Schermerhorn to enjoy a full day of performances at our annual Regions FREE Day of Music.

OCTOBER 201122

Fresh from the success of their collaboration on Der Rosenkavalier (1911), Richard Strauss and his librettist Hugo von Hofmannsthal settled on an idea they initially thought would serve as a lightweight “diversion.” In fact, their concept

of an archly theatrical mash-up between high-minded Greek myth and the clownish antics of Italian commedia dell’arte turned out to be remark-

ably innovative. It inspired some of Strauss’s most touching operatic characterizations, framed by a richly ironic interplay of competing musical styles that anticipates postmodernism.

Ariadne auf Naxos begins with a Prologue in which an idealistic young Composer (writ-ten for mezzo voice) discovers to his horror that the serious opera he was commissioned to write will be played simultaneously with the evening’s clown show. It turns out his philistine patron

wants more time for the fireworks to follow the show, which is then subject to frantic last-minute tailoring. In the resulting hybrid, Ariadne, aban-doned by Theseus on the island of Naxos, longs for death. But as she luxuriates in her despair, Zerbinetta, the flirty soprano star of the comic troupe, tries to cheer her up with an over-the-top aria offering practical advice on how to deal with men. And Ariadne is not abandoned after all: at the opera’s climax, the god Bacchus arrives, and the two sing an ecstatic duet about love’s transformation.

Musically, Ariadne abruptly shifts stylistic gears, juxtaposing Strauss’s updated, full-throttle Wagnerian rhetoric with a lucid, Mozart-tinged neoclassicism. But the composer’s restriction to what, by Straussian standards, is a chamber orchestra — supplemented by the enchanting sound of harmonium — helps underscore the score’s textural varieties of sound. The seamlessly homogeneous blend of Wagner is not the model

eS Strauss composed the first version of Ariadne auf Naxos in 1911-12 but made a radical overhaul in 1916, adding a completely new prologue and introducing what has become the repertory version of this one-act opera. D. Wilson Ochoa, the Nashville Symphony’s principal Librarian, created his arrangement of music from the opera in 2010 and dedicates the score to Maestro Giancarlo Guerrero and the Nashville Symphony. One of Strauss’s most inventive operas, Ariadne auf Naxos brilliantly mixes different stylistic conventions.

First performance: The familiar (revised) version of Ariadne auf Naxos premiered in Vienna on October 4, 1916.. First nashville Symphony performance: The Nashville Symphony is giving the world premiere of D. Wilson Ochoa’s newly arranged Symphony-Suite from Ariadne auf Naxos at these concerts.estimated length: 38 minutes recommended listening and reading: While the Symphony-Suite is being performed for the first time here, you can find a wonder-ful introduction to the sophisticated world of Ariadne auf Naxos through the acclaimed Metropolitan Opera production featur-ing Deborah Voigt as the hapless heroine and Nathalie Dessay as Zerbinetta. It was recently released as a separate DVD in the box set celebrating James Levine’s 40th anniversary (Virgin). On CD, Kent Nagano conducts a set that includes music from the rarely heard original 1912 version of the opera, in which incidental music for Molière’s Le bourgeois gentilhomme was paired with Ariadne (Virgin Classics).

here. What results is an opera that combines the silly with the serene, the prosaic with the transcendent.

D. Wilson Ochoa has kindly provided the fol-lowing note about his instrumental Symphony-Suite drawn from Strauss’s opera:

“I have long been a fan of Richard Strauss’s orchestral tone poems, but, with the sole excep-tion of Der Rosenkavalier, I have been late in coming to realize what amazing music is con-tained in his many wonderful operas.

“After I discovered the breathtaking music from Ariadne auf Naxos, I began a search to see if an orchestral suite of this music had been made so that the NSO could play it in concert, and was shocked to discover that this had never been done. After having been invited by Maestro Guerrero to write something specifically for him, and given his love for opera, I knew that making a suite of excerpts from Ariadne would be the per-fect project.

“What I thought might be a straightforward suite turned out to be something much more. There were so many great moments — what to include? How do you transition from excerpts in distant keys? Where do you orchestrate in the vocal lines and how can you best do so without disrupting Strauss’s wonderfully imaginative orchestration? I aimed to create a suite that used only Strauss’s orchestration and instrumentation (with the lone addition of English horn to take over some lyrical vocal lines) and relied only on his materials to make the transitions work.

“Ultimately, I created a continuous suite that mimics the length and form of a symphony (and so my term symphony-suite). I compiled the Prologue from different parts of the revised open-ing that Strauss added to the opera in 1916. It functions as the opening of a symphony would by introducing most of the themes of the opera that are to be “developed” later.

“The beautiful Duet, originally sung by the Composer (mezzo) and Zerbinetta (soprano), orchestrates their vocal lines among several solo instruments, complementing the wonderfully lush accompaniment. Almost every Strauss opera has a Waltz, and Strauss was justly famous for them. Originally part of a virtuoso piece showcasing the coloratura soprano of Zerbinetta, this waltz’s orchestration is absolutely sparkling and no less virtuosic than the vocal line.

“The Overture, which originally opens the opera-within-the-opera following the Prologue, appears in the symphony-suite as the slow middle movement. Next comes the famous Aria Ariadne sings as she awakens to accept her fate. Strauss loved to write for soprano (his wife was one) and this aria is a stunning example of the care he took to craft wonderful orchestrations to accompany the singers he loved.

“The Interlude is taken from the 1912 ver-sion of the opera that is rarely heard and shows Strauss at his instrumental best, building to a feverish climax that leads directly into the Finale, where Ariadne joins in her duet with Bacchus. Ingeniously, Strauss uses a variation of the waltz-like theme from the Interlude as the initial theme in the Finale, but here considerably slowed down to bring out the deep emotions that lead to the conclusion of the opera. The Finale smartly recalls several themes from earlier in the opera, which serves as a fitting closing movement to the symphony-suite.”

Ochoa’s arrangement retains Strauss’s original instrumentation of 2 flutes, 2 oboes (Ochoa adds 2nd doubling English horn), 2 clarinets (2nd dou-bling bass clarinet), 2 bassoons, 2 horns, trumpet, trombone, timpani, cymbals, snare drum, tambou-rine, triangle, glockenspiel, celesta, harmonium, 2 harps, piano and 16 strings.

“What I thought might be a straightforward suite turned out

to be something much more,” says Nashville Symphony

principal Librarian Wilson Ochoa.

Concerto for Piano No. 2 in B-flat major, Op. 19

Chronologically, the piano Concerto No. 2 is actually the first of the five mature concer-tos beethoven completed for the instrument. Its composition, including multiple revisions, is thought to have spanned from the late 1780s, when the com-poser still lived in Bonn, to 1798, though beethoven withheld publication until 1801. In 1809, he added an extensive new cadenza for the first movement. While less ambitious than the official “First” Piano Concerto, the Second expresses aspects of beethoven’s keyboard poetry that were essential to the way he defined himself in the for-mative years of his career.

The Second Concerto contains much to delight the ear and offers another view of

beethoven as a poet of the keyboard.

eSBeethoven settled in Vienna in November 1792, only a year after Mozart had died. There he soon began to follow the pattern set by his predecessor, making his name as a virtuoso on the keyboard. The first three of his five canonical concertos clearly show the stamp of the Mozartean mod-els, which Beethoven knew inside out and per-formed to great acclaim. It’s intriguing to recall that Beethoven was already making his earliest forays into the genre while he was still a teen-ager in Bonn, possibly around the very time that Mozart was introducing his own groundbreak-ing piano concertos. The piano part of an early, unnumbered concerto Beethoven wrote at 13 has survived, and there were probably some other embryonic concertos as well. The origins of the work officially known as the Piano Concerto No. 2 can likewise be traced to the Bonn years. Using material that was composed no later than 1790 for the first movement, he treated it as a work in progress throughout his first Viennese decade and revised the score — especially the Adagio and Rondo — when new opportunities for perfor-mance arose. At one point Beethoven jettisoned an earlier version of the Rondo entirely and wrote a substitute movement.

Beethoven decided to publish his later Concerto in C major first because of its more ambitious scale and overt pianistic brilliance — qualities that made it especially suitable to rep-resent his inaugural publication in the genre. Yet even if it is less innovative, the Second Concerto contains much to delight the ear and offers another view of Beethoven as a poet of the key-board. Moreover, its final form reveals another fresh approach to classical models even though its angle is relatively more conservative than that of the First Concerto or First Symphony. In these years, Beethoven systematically worked his way through what were considered the important genres, and Op. 19 represents an integral part of this process of finding his voice.

what to listen forBeethoven sets out on a spaciously conceived opening movement with a main theme that is in keeping with familiar classical rhetoric. But he

soon veers into unexpected harmonic directions that suggest how intent he is to make his own mark, even while fusing highly contrasting influ-ences from Mozart and Haydn. Deftly and with great diplomacy, the piano takes charge after the orchestral exposition and begins to ferret out new possibilities within the thematic material, meanwhile encouraging the ensemble to revel in a fragrant second theme. The relatively mini-mal orchestration — no clarinets, trumpets or drums — enhances the chamber-like textures of this intimate dialogue. The second, more lyrical part of the opening thematic idea receives spe-cial attention as the argument develops. Instead of a concerto of grandstanding heroic poses, the attitude here is one of comic panache, with perhaps even a subversive wink at genre conven-tions. With almost deadpan politesse, the soloist allows the orchestra back into the spotlight after the cadenza for a brief final bow.

The Adagio — an aria-like meditation with a simplicity that encompasses lovingly elabo-rated details — gives voice to a dreamier muse. If Beethoven tends to conjure images of a keyboard-smashing firebrand, the Adagio reminds us that he was especially admired for the profound intro-spection he could sustain across a slow, drawn-out improvisation. A sense of the spells he was said to weave in private recitals is evoked in the pared-down eloquence of the simple recitative near the very end of this movement.

The first two movements find Beethoven put-ting his stamp on the Mozartean concerto arche-type. The teasingly tricky rhythmic shape of the rondo finale theme, in contrast, is much closer in spirit to Haydn’s vigorously earthy humor. Even a digression into the minor during a passing episode in the middle of the movement proves fleeting and is quickly chased away by the prevail-ing mood of sparkling joie de vivre. At the end, soloist and orchestra conspire for a witty finish to the comedy.

In addition to solo piano, Beethoven Piano Concerto No. 2 calls for flute, 2 oboes, 2 bassoons, 2 horns and strings.

edward elGarborn on June 2, 1857, in the village of Lower broadheath in the Midlands of England; died on February 23, 1934, in Worcester, England

In the South, Op. 50

Elgar began composing In the South in late 1903 during a holiday in Italy and finished orchestrating the piece after returning to England on February 21, 1904, dedicating the score “to my friend, Leo F. Schuster.” Despite being labeled an overture, the larger scale and brilliant orchestration of In the South — which pays tribute to impressions from the composer’s Italian sojourn — suggest a kinship with the tone poems of Elgar’s friend and contemporary, richard Strauss.

First performance: March 16, 1904, in London, at the inaugural Elgar Festival, with the composer conducting the Hallé Orchestra.

First nashville Symphony performance: Nov. 13 & 14, 1998, with Music Director Kenneth Schermerhorn.estimated length: 20 minutesrecommended listening: Like Strauss, Elgar was one of the first composers to make use of the new medium of recorded sound and in fact twice recorded In the South with himself as conductor. John barbirolli’s spirited version with the Hallé Orchestra, for which the piece was written, still holds its own as an authoritative performance (bbC Legends).

Elgar was one of the contemporary composers Strauss liked to champion in his alter ego as a conductor. In fact, the two men enjoyed a long-standing friendship that may have had something to do with affinities in their approach to life. Strauss biographer Michael Kennedy notes that, along with some parallels in their choice of wives (in each case, powerful women who had gener-als for fathers), “both made conscious efforts not to appear ‘artistic’ in any flamboyant sense.” And while Elgar was at pains to downplay any per-ceived similarities to Strauss’s style in his music for In the South — even advising that the official program notes avoid drawing the connection — the piece’s exuberant opening rush and plush har-monic language are not the only aspects that bring Strauss to mind. The German composer had also recorded his impressions of Italy in the form of a big orchestral work he titled Aus Italien (“From Italy”), an early work from 1886 that pointed the way ahead to his famous later tone poems.

In the South likewise served as a kind of prov-ing ground for Elgar while he grappled with the challenge of creating his first symphony. After years of frustrating struggle to make his mark, he had finally achieved an international break-through with the beloved “Enigma” Variations in 1899 and was looking forward to a special music festival in his honor scheduled for the spring of 1904, the year he would also be knighted. He hoped to unveil a grand new symphony for the occasion. But the price of belated recognition was increased pressure. Elgar grew despondent over his inability to make headway on the symphony, on which he had planned to work during a winter holiday spent on the Italian Riviera with his wife, Alice. “We have been perished with cold, rain and gales,” he complained to a friend.

Still, the change of setting offered unantici-pated inspiration for another concert work. “I was

by the side of an old Roman way,” the composer later recalled. “A peasant stood by an old ruin and in a flash it all came to me — the conflict of armies in that very spot long ago, where now I stood — the contrast of the ruin and the shepherd — and then all of a sudden, I came back to reality. In that time I had ‘composed’ the overture — the rest was merely writing it down.” The result is some of Elgar’s most splendidly pictorial orches-tral writing. While there’s no specific program for In the South, the musical material conjures a dra-matic interplay between echoes from the ancient past and the idyllic present. The sense of epiphany Elgar associated with this stark contrast is further underlined by quotations from Lord Byron and Tennyson which he inscribed into the score.

what to listen forElgar terms In the South an “overture” (giving it the subtitle “Alassio” after the scenic coastal town where he and Alice rented a villa), but its scale and variety have far less in common with the old-fashioned concert overture than with the tone poem Strauss had recently pioneered. Architecturally, the piece is designed as a flexible adaptation of traditional sonata form to encom-pass widely ranging content. The hot-blooded opening theme actually recycles a motif Elgar had jotted down as a musical vignette of a friend’s bulldog winning a dogfight (“Dan,” who has his own portrait in the “Enigma” Variations). In the present context, however, the composer likened it to “the exhilarating out-of-doors feeling” of his Mediterranean surroundings. Against this, a

resonant countermelody steals in on strings, lead-ing to a fuller statement of the big theme. Another idea, grandiose and with sweeping harmonies, brings us to a tender episode for the woodwinds that evokes the peaceful image of the shepherd. Rome’s vanished, warlike glory thunderously enters the picture in a striking and ominous pas-sage dominated by brass and percussion.

The midpoint of In the South is reserved for the dreamily evocative, amorous nocturne intro-duced by a silky solo viola and then echoed by horn — the seductive South that has provided escape for so many generations of artists from sterner climes. Elgar crafted a separate con-cert piece from this section, which he titled In Moonlight, and no doubt enjoyed the ruse of seeming to quote a popular Neapolitan folk tune when, in fact, the melody is his own. He breaks the trance with great skill, steering the music into a recapitulation of the opening ideas. New, festive colors enhance their return, as Elgar then signs his musical postcard with a gesture of unbridled affirmation.

In the South is scored for 3 flutes (3rd doubling piccolo), 2 oboes, English horn, 2 clarinets, bass clarinet, 2 bassoons, contrabassoon, 4 horns, 3 trumpets, 3 trombones, tuba, timpani, bass drum, snare drum, cymbals, triangle, glockenspiel, 2 harps and strings.

About the ARtistSonny rollinS, saxophoneWalter Theodore Rollins was born in the Harlem neigh-borhood of New York City on September 7, 1930. His parents were natives of the U. S. Virgin Islands. His brother and sister studied classical music, but Rollins veered in another direction after his uncle, a profes-sional saxophonist, introduced him to jazz and blues.

In 1951, Rollins debuted as a leader on the Prestige record label. His affiliation with Prestige produced clas-sics such as Saxophone Colossus, Worktime and Tenor Madness. Rollins played in the Max Roach-Clifford Brown Quintet, one of the most definitive hard-bop ensembles of its day. Rollins then entered a tremen-dously fertile period during which he recorded major works such as A Night at the Village Vanguard, Way Out West and Freedom Suite. In 1961, he recorded The Bridge with Jim Hall and Bob Cranshaw, and led a quartet with trumpeter Don Cherry and drummer Billy Higgins. In that same year, he recorded with his idol, Coleman Hawkins.

Rollins won his first performance GRAMMY® in 2001 for This Is What I Do, and his second in 2005, in the Best Jazz Instrumental Solo category, for “Why Was I Born?” on the live album Without a Song (The 9/11 Concert). He also received a Lifetime Achievement Award from the National Academy of Recording Arts and Sciences in 2004.

In 2006, Rollins was inducted into the Academy of Achievement at the International Achievement Summit. In 2009, he became the third American to be awarded the Austrian Cross for Science and Art, First Class. He was named the Edward MacDowell Medalist in 2010, the first jazz composer to be so honored. More recently, Rollins was presented with the National Medal of Arts. The Jazz Journalists Association named him 2011 Musician of the Year and Tenor Saxophonist of the Year. In December 2011, he will be awarded the Kennedy Center Honor.

“I believe that jazz is the music which best expresses the stirrings of the human soul,” says Rollins. “I feel tre-mendously privileged to have succeeded to some extent in a music that includes the likes of Louis Armstrong and Fats Waller — all of these guys who I thought were such tremendous people putting out all of this positive music. It’s all that I could ever dream — to be involved in this.”

The Nashville Symphony starts off this evening’s program with Johannes Brahms’s lively Hungarian Dance No. 5. First published in 1869, No. 5 is the most famous of the composer’s 21 folk-inspired Hungarian Dances. Rollicking and lyrical by turns, No. 5 has often been utilized for television and movie scores, never more cleverly than in Charlie Chaplin’s The Great Dictator, where it pro-vided the soundtrack for a comic — and slightly harrowing — barbershop shave. The evening’s second selection, Franz Liszt’s 1847 Hungarian Rhapsody No. 2 in C minor, explores Hungarian themes in a somewhat grander style. With its rich Gypsy influence and rhythmic complexity, Rhapsody No. 2 gained immediate popularity as a virtuoso piece for solo piano. It was so popular, in fact, that Liszt himself is said to have grown weary of it. The work has retained its favored status as both a solo and an orchestral concert piece, and it inspired two acclaimed pieces of animation: Warner Bros.’ Rhapsody Rabbit, starring Bugs Bunny, and The Cat Concerto, which won an Academy Award for MGM in 1946.

The Symphony turns from Old World to New with “Por Una Cabeza,” the most famous work of the great tango composer and singer, Carlos Gardel. Written in 1935, the original song fea-tured lyrics by Gardel and Alfredo Le Pera — a philosophical lament by a gambler addicted to both horseracing and beautiful women. To American ears, “Por Una Cabeza” has become the quintessential tango song, thanks to its frequent

use in hit films such as Schindler’s List and Scent of a Woman. Furthering the Latin American theme, the Symphony takes on Quincy Jones’s irresistible

“Soul Bossa Nova,” which combines the Brazilian beat of bossa nova with the sounds of big band jazz. Jones’s piquant tune was reworked by George S. Clinton to become the perfect risqué signature for the Austin Powers movies. The first half of the program will wrap up with a “Hot Soul Medley” of Motown hits, including “I Heard It Through the Grapevine” and “My Girl.”

The evening will take on a more wistful tone when singer/songwriter Christopher Cross and his band join the orchestra. Cross was originally scheduled to perform at Schermerhorn Symphony Center in May 2010, but the historic Nashville flood left more than 20 feet of water in the build-ing’s basement and forced the singer to cancel his performances. Just days after the flood, he graciously donated his services for a free concert with the orchestra on the Public Square. Now the Nashville Symphony is pleased to welcome Cross back to the Schermerhorn, which has been fully restored following $40 million in repairs.

Cross has described his music as “intelligent, melodic pop,” and his songs from the early 1980s have become standards. “Sailing” and “Arthur’s Theme” still enjoy frequent airplay on soft rock radio stations nearly 30 years after they were first released. In recent years, Cross has worked at reinterpreting these and other hits (“Never Be the Same,” “Think of Laura”) in pared-down arrange-ments that highlight his dulcet voice, which has always been the ideal vehicle for the poetic tenderness of his songs. Nashville audiences will hear many of their favorites during his appearance with the Symphony, and they’ll also be treated to some of his less famil-iar tunes, including “Hunger” and “Open Up My Window,” ballads of romantic longing that every fan will recognize as classic Cross.

ieSAbout the ARtist

Christopher Cross became the biggest new star on the music scene in 1980 with a string of graceful, intelli-gent ballads, including the No. 1 hit “Sailing.” His 1980 self-titled debut album, with the lead single “Ride Like the Wind,” soared to the No. 2 spot, and he received an unprecedented five GRAMMY® Awards in 1981, includ-ing Best New Artist and Song of the Year. He achieved a

second No. 1 single, as well as an Academy Award, with “Arthur’s Theme (Best That You Can Do),” co-written with Burt Bacharach, Carole Bayer Sager and Peter Allen for the hit comedy Arthur.

With the release of a second album, Another Page, Cross ultimately charted eight songs into the Billboard Top 40 charts between 1980 and 1983, including “Think of Laura” and “No Time for Talk.”

To date, Cross has released a total of eight albums, a body of work revealing a focused dedication to that rare com-modity of the latter-day popster: artistic growth. His albums from the mid-1980s to the present represent a hard-traveled road of musical integrity. They include Every Turn of the World, a foray into a harder rock; Back of My Mind, a collection of breezy pop per-fection; Rendezvous, an insightful set that tackled thoughtful subjects; Window, a heartfelt acoustic-pop record; and Walking in Avalon / Red Room, arguably the very pinnacle of sophisticated, mature — and fun — Christopher Cross music.

Those who have followed Cross have reaped the rewards of set after set of intelligently written and performed melodic pop. His latest album, the 2011 release Doctor Faith, written with Rob Meurer, was created with the thoughtful eye of men who aren’t afraid to act their age, and the

buoyant spirit of artists still excited about what they do. It is Cross’s finest work to date.

Cross performs about 100 live shows per year, seek-ing out his fans worldwide by regularly hitting the con-cert road, never depriving those fans of the early hits

(played note-perfect), as well as a broad range of his lat-est work — the songs where his heart and his art truly lie.

Those who have followed Cross have reaped the

rewards of set after set of intelligently written and performed melodic pop.

MUSIC DIRECTOR

Now entering his third season as its Music Director, Giancarlo Guerrero continues to flourish with the Nashville Symphony Orchestra (NSO). In autumn 2011, Guerrero also begins his new appointment as Principal Guest Conductor of The Cleveland Orchestra Miami Residency.

A fervent advocate of new music and contemporary compos-ers, Guerrero has collaborated with and championed the works of several of America’s most respected composers, including John Adams, John Corigliano, Osvaldo Golijov, Jennifer Higdon, Aaron Jay Kernis, Michael Daugherty and Roberto Sierra. His first record-ing with the Nashville Symphony, on Naxos, of Michael Daugherty’s Metropolis Symphony and Deux Ex Machina, won three 2011 GRAMMY® Awards, including the category of Best Orchestral Performance. In 2010/11, Guerrero and the NSO released two more recordings on Naxos — one featuring the music of Argentine legend Astor Piazzolla and another featuring the music of American com-poser Joseph Schwantner.

In 2011/12, Guerrero will debut several world premieres with the Nashville Symphony, including a new work by Richard Danielpour, a banjo concerto by Béla Fleck and a concerto for electric violin by Terry Riley, which the NSO will bring to Carnegie Hall as part of the Spring for Music festival. With The Cleveland Orchestra, where Guerrero first appeared in May 2006, he will conduct subscription concerts in both Severance Hall and for Miami Residency perfor-mances at the Arsht Center, as well as plan and engage in education and community programs in the Miami-Dade area. Also this sea-son, he returns to the Cincinnati Symphony Orchestra and makes his debut with the Pacific Symphony.

A fervent advocate of new music and contempo-rary composers, Guerrero has collaborated with and championed the works of several of America’s most respected composers, including John Adams, John Corigliano, Osvaldo Golijov, Jennifer Higdon, Aaron Jay Kernis, Michael Daugherty and roberto Sierra.

OCTOBER 201162

Internationally, highlights of this season include his first European tour with the Monte Carlo Philharmonic and Jean-Yves Thibaudet, concerts with the Slovenian and Strasbourg Philharmonics, the BBC Scottish and BBC Welsh Symphony Orchestras, and a return to the São Paulo State Symphony Orchestra.

In summer 2011, Guerrero again led the Philadelphia Orchestra in concert at Mann Center, and in addition conducted the orchestra in their summer residencies at Vail and Saratoga. This followed a busy 2010/11 season that included guest-conducting engagements in five continents: Europe, Asia, Australia, North America and South America. He now returns annually to Caracas, Venezuela, to conduct the Orquesta Sinfónica Simón Bolívar and to work with young musicians in the country’s much-lauded El Sistema music education program.

In recent seasons he has appeared with many of the major North American orchestras, including the symphony orchestras of Baltimore, Boston, Cincinnati, Dallas, Detroit, Seattle, Toronto, Vancouver and the National Symphony in Washington, D.C. He has also appeared at several major summer festivals, including the Los Angeles Philharmonic at the Hollywood Bowl, The Cleveland Orchestra at Blossom Music Festival, and Indiana University’s sum-mer orchestra festival.

In June 2004, Guerrero was awarded the Helen M. Thompson Award by the American Symphony Orchestra League, which rec-ognizes outstanding achievement among young conductors nation-wide. He holds degrees from Baylor and Northwestern universities. Guerrero was formerly the music director of the Eugene Symphony (2001-2008), associate conductor of the Minnesota Orchestra (1999-2004) and music director of the Táchira Symphony Orchestra in Venezuela.

ALbeRt-GeoRGe schRAm

Albert-George Schram, a native of the Netherlands, has served as resident conductor of the Nashville Symphony since 2006. While he has conducted on all series the orchestra offers, Schram is primarily responsible for its Bank of America Pops Series.

Schram’s longest tenure has been with the Columbus Symphony Orchestra, where he has worked in a variety of capacities since 1979. He is an audience favorite for all series he conducts there, including Pops and the CSO’s summer season. As a regular guest conductor of the Charlotte Symphony Orchestra, Schram in 2002 opened the orchestra’s new permanent summer home, Symphony Park. He has regularly conducted the Charlotte Symphony since then.

From 1990 to 1996, Schram served as resident conductor of the Louisville Orchestra. Under his artistic guidance of three of the orchestra’s four subscription series, these series enjoyed exceptional growth. The former Florida Philharmonic Orchestra appointed Schram as resident conductor beginning with the 2002/03 season. His conducting duties encompass participation in all of the FPO’s series from Miami to Palm Beach.

In 2008 Schram was invited to conduct the Orquesta Sinfónica Nacional of Bolivia in La Paz and the Orquesta Sinfónica Universidad Nacional de Cuyo in Mendoza, Argentina. His other foreign conducting engagements have included the KBS Symphony Orchestra and the Taegu Symphony Orchestra in Korea, and the Orchester der Allgemeinen Musikgesellschaft Luzern in Switzerland. He has returned to his native Holland to conduct the Netherlands Radio Philharmonic and the Netherlands Broadcast Orchestra.

In the U.S., his recent and coming guest conducting appear-ances include the Dallas Symphony Orchestra, Tucson Symphony, Louisiana Philharmonic, Oklahoma City Philharmonic, Spokane Symphony, Dayton Philharmonic, Shreveport Symphony, San Antonio Symphony, Allentown Symphony and the Mansfield Symphony.

Schram’s studies have been largely in the European tradition under the tutelage of Franco Ferrara, Rafael Kubelik, Abraham Kaplan and Neeme Järvi. He received the majority of his initial training at the Conservatory of The Hague in the Netherlands. He later moved to Canada to undertake studies at the universities of Calgary and Victoria. His training was completed at the University of Washington.

Schram is primarily responsible for the

Nashville Symphony’s bank of America

pops Series.

OCTOBER 201164

The 2011/12 season marks Associate Conductor Kelly Corcoran’s fifth season with the Nashville Symphony. During this time, she has conducted a variety of programs, including the Symphony’s SunTrust Classical Series and Bank of America Pops Series, and has served as the primary con-ductor for the orchestra’s education and com-munity engagement concerts. She also conducted the Nashville Symphony’s CD collaboration with Riders In The Sky, ‘Lassoed Live’ at the Schermerhorn.

Corcoran has conducted major orchestras throughout the country, including the Colorado, Houston and Utah Symphonies and the Louisville Orchestra. She has had return engagements with the Charlotte, Detroit, Memphis, Milwaukee and National Symphonies and the Naples (FL) Philharmonic. In 2009, she made her successful South American debut as a guest conductor with the Orquesta Sinfónica UNCuyo in Mendoza, Argentina, and returned for multiple subscrip-tion programs in 2011. She has developed a reputation for exciting, energized performances. The Tennessean hailed her work on the podium as “lively” and “fresh,” while Green Bay Press-Gazette noted that “her smooth conducting style flashed dynamism.”

Named as Honorable Mention for the Taki Concordia Conducting Fellowship, Corcoran studied with Marin Alsop and shared perfor-mances with her and the Bournemouth (UK) Symphony and Colorado Symphony. Prior to her position in Nashville, she completed three seasons as assistant conductor for the Canton Symphony Orchestra in Ohio and music director of the Canton Youth Symphony and the Cleveland-area Heights Chamber Orchestra. Corcoran has competed in the VIII Cadaqués Orchestra International Conducting Competition in Spain, worked with the Cleveland Opera and attended the Lucerne Festival’s master class in conducting, focusing on contemporary orchestral literature with Pierre Boulez.

In 2004, Corcoran participated in the selec-tive National Conducting Institute, where she studied with her mentor, Leonard Slatkin. She has held past posts as assistant music director of the Nashville Opera, founder/music director of the Nashville Philharmonic Orchestra and fellow with the New World Symphony, where she worked with Michael Tilson Thomas.

Originally from Massachusetts and a mem-ber of the Tanglewood Festival Chorus for more than 10 years, Corcoran received her Bachelor of Music in vocal performance from The Boston Conservatory, and she received her Master of Music in instrumental conducting from Indiana University. She currently serves on the conducting faculty at the New York Summer Music Festival and Tennessee State University.

We give music students the

royal treatment.

events.lipscomb.edu

In fact, we require it. Lipscomb was the first university in the U.S. to require its music majors to sit for Britain’s acclaimed Associated Board of the Royal Schools of Music exams. And that’s just one of our musical accomplishments in the arts. In theater, Lipscomb’s director was named one of Nashville’s top ten directors in 2010. And in visual arts, our

presidential lecture earns rave reviews for the arts influencers it brings to the community. Experience it yourself. There are very few times when there is not an arts event on campus, open to the public and enjoyed at little or no charge. Go to events.lipscomb.edu to see what’s happening. We’d like

to treat you royally as well.

When Schermerhorn Symphony Center opened to the public in 2006, we envisioned our concert hall serving many generations for decades to come. If you have that same vision for the Nashville Symphony, then a planned gift can become your ultimate demon-stration of commitment and support. You can help us plan for our future — and your own — through this creative approach to phi-lanthropy and estate planning, which allows you to make a signifi-cant contribution to the Nashville Symphony while also enjoying income and tax benefits for you and your family.

Great orchestras, like all great cultural institutions throughout history, are gifts to posterity; they are built and bestowed to succeed-ing generations by visionary philanthropists.

To find out more about planned giving opportunities, please visit: NashvilleSymphony.org/plannedgiving.
