a note from the chair and the president It is our pleasure to welcome you to Symphony Center.

We are delighted that you have chosen to come and see the incredible Chicago Symphony Orchestra and other great artists and ensembles performing live in Orchestra Hall. There are so many great concerts here during the months of February and March, but we would like to draw your attention to a few of them.

Zell Music Director Riccardo Muti returns for two remarkable concerts, the first of which not only features Mitsuko Uchida performing Beethoven’s Piano Concerto no. 4 but also celebrates the eighty-fifth birthday of American composer Philip Glass with the CSO’s first performances of his Eleventh Symphony. Glass first came to Chicago in 1952 to study composition at the University of Chicago, and we are delighted to celebrate his music and his connection to our city with these concerts.

For the first time since 2014, Muti conducts Beethoven’s iconic Ninth Symphony with the Chicago Symphony Orchestra and Chorus. The Chorus is prepared by its Director and Conductor Duain Wolfe, who marks his retirement with this program after more than a quarter century leading the ensemble. A tribute to Wolfe appears on page 10. Truly extraordinary artistic forces assemble for this seminal work that culminates in the “Ode to Joy”—a welcome affirmation of friendship and humanity.

In March, the Orchestra also makes its first appearance this season at Wheaton College for a concert conducted by Dame Jane Glover that features organist Paul Jacobs and the CSO’s Principal Oboe William Welter as soloists.

Musicians from the CSO also perform on the second contemporary MusicNOW concert of the season curated by Mead Composer-in-Residence Jessie Montgomery at the Harris Theater.

This is also a time for robust concert offerings by Symphony Center Presents.

In addition to four Piano series recitals, the Chamber Music series features the remarkable trio of Leonidas Kavakos, Emanuel Ax, and Yo-Yo Ma, as well as the Mahler Chamber Orchestra with Mitsuko Uchida. On the Jazz series, Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra with Wynton Marsalis performs two programs: one honoring Marsalis’s recent sixtieth birthday and the other, with special guest Bryan Stevenson, paying tribute to important moments and figures in Black history.

For more information on all our concerts, as well as the many educational activities of the CSO’s Negaunee Music Institute, please visit our box office or cso.org. Thank you for supporting great music in Chicago.

“ Our door is always open, our hearts, even more” Community Outreach Concerts Warm Up Muti’s January CSO Residency

By Dennis Polkow

mong the highlights of Riccardo Muti’s three-week January residency with the Chicago Symphony Orchestra were two community outreach concerts. The first occurred on January 14 at Morton East High School in Cicero.

Muti, the CSO’s Zell Music Director, led an all-Beethoven program that included the Coriolan Overture and the Eighth and Fifth symphonies.

Associate Principal Horn Daniel Gingrich, a Morton alumnus, was recognized by the school at the beginning of the concert. “Enough decades had gone by that I wasn’t expecting to recognize anyone, nor anyone to recognize me,” said Gingrich, class of 1971. “But nevertheless, it was definitely fun. After fifty-plus years, the recognition I received was much stronger than I expected. This was our second concert there.” Muti and

of the spheres of the planet. Our music— music of other countries, of different languages—all comes from the soul and the heart. It is universal and very important. A saint once said, ‘Cantare, amantis est.’ To make music, to sing, is an expression of love. Universal love.

“For twenty-five years, I have done Roads of Friendship concerts all over the world. One time, when we were in Nairobi, in Kenya, some wonderful kids did a chorus from an Italian opera, the famous ‘Va, pensiero.’ They were fantastic. They sang with perfect pronunciation of the Italian language. Music can free us to be brothers.

“We will come back to you,” Muti continued to applause. “But my goal is that you also come to us. Don’t be afraid of a famous hall, of people that are ‘competent,’ that think they know everything about music. Such people don’t know anything! They should stay home. You should come.

“That was beautiful, Maestro,” said Mayor Lori Lightfoot, coming into the sanctuary with First Lady Amy Eshleman to greet Muti after the concert, both visibly moved. “This is such a blessing to this community. It lifted everyone’s spirits.

I learned classical music when I was in high school and we learned Messiah from beginning to end. Handel is so distinctive.

Getting to hear this was such a treat.”

A Tribute to

DUAIN WOLFE T

a b o v e : Among numerous other recordings, Wolfe prepared the Chicago Symphony Chorus for these two Grammy Award–winning recordings.

10 CSO.ORG

he Chicago Symphony Orchestra Association celebrates Duain Wolfe on the occasion of his retirement from his role as the Chicago Symphony Chorus’s director and conductor. Only the second director of the Chorus since its founding in the 1957–58 season, he has been the tireless standard-bearer of an ensemble that represents the best in choral performance.

Wolfe first prepared the Chicago Symphony Chorus as a guest for a Ravinia Festival program of opera choruses in August 1993 and again early the following February for performances downtown of Schoenberg’s Friede auf Erden.

Concluding a three-year search, the CSO’s then music director Daniel Barenboim announced that Wolfe would succeed Margaret Hillis, founder and first director of the Chorus. He officially began on June 1, 1994, and since then has prepared the Chorus for over 150 programs during his twenty-eightyear tenure. Clarity, focus, rhythmic precision, power, and transcendent beauty are just a few of the adjectives that have been used to describe the Chorus under his leadership.

Wolfe’s profound knowledge of the operatic and choral canons, appetite for new works, and expert musicianship have resulted in a remarkable legacy of memorable performances. Another element to his success has been his tireless work ethic. His attention to detail and standards for excellence for his myriad responsibilities—from meticulous score study to his understanding of the human voice, from leading expertly organized rehearsals to managing rigorous auditions—have been an inspiration to colleagues, conductors, soloists, and vocal and instrumental musicians. He has also encouraged generations of young musicians with his conducting and mentorship.

Duain Wolfe has prepared the Chicago Symphony Chorus for performances conducted by three CSO music directors— Sir Georg Solti, Daniel Barenboim, and Riccardo Muti— as well as CSO titled conductors Claudio Abbado, Pierre Boulez, and Bernhard Haitink and many distinguished guest conductors. He has worked with CSO Zell Music Director Riccardo Muti on notable performances of Beethoven’s Ninth Symphony; landmarks of the Italian vocal literature, including Verdi’s Requiem and four operas—Otello, Macbeth, Falstaff, and Aida—as well as Mascagni’s Cavalleria P HOTOS BY TODD ROS EN BERG U N L ES S OTHERW I S E N OTED

Three Days with Hilary Hahn, the CSO’s Artist-in-Residence

By Graham Meyer

a b o v e : From December 9 to 11, Hilary Hahn gave three performances with the CSO of Dvořák’s Violin Concerto, a work that received its U.S. premiere with the Orchestra in October 1891, 130 years earlier.

16 CSO.ORG

On December 9, 2021, Hilary Hahn strode onstage with her 1865 Vuillaume violin, wearing a Carolina Herrera gown with a red, orange, violet-blue, and lavender skirt, and publicly launched her two-year term as the Chicago Symphony Orchestra’s Artist-in-Residence with a quadruple-stop downbow. She played Dvořák’s Violin Concerto in A minor with verve and fire, whipsawing from aching lyricism to virtuosic technical passages, spun out with a passion that belied their difficulty. During rests in the solo part, she kept her posture engaged with the Orchestra, leaning into phrases and feeling the articulation, almost as if she were the conductor and not Andrés Orozco-Estrada. After the concerto, the near-capacity audience tried to match her powerful performance with applause, and she graciously rewarded us with the Largo movement from Bach’s Sonata no. 3 for solo violin, played with a contemplative intimacy that held the audience rapt.

The subscription concert marked Hahn’s first local appearance since the June announcement of her appointment as the CSO’s

Artist-in-Residence. She is the first person on whom the Orchestra has ever bestowed the title, and while she holds it, she will make multiple visits per year to Chicago for music making and community building. “Music is bonding,” Hahn says. “It’s healing. Every one of us has something in common beyond being in the hall at the same place, at the same time, listening to the same piece.” Hahn continued, “I think the common connections of humanity and music are really deep, and that’s what I like to explore in a residency.”

D

uring her December visit, organized by the CSO’s Negaunee Music Institute, Hahn spent a school-day morning at Northside College Preparatory High School.

For a session in the Cedric L. Hampton Center for the Performing Arts, she coached four young players on Grażyna Bacewicz’s Quartet for Four Violins, in what Hahn said was her first-ever coaching of a chamber group. After the quartet played through the piece and a gentle insistence that the shy group bow for applause, she asked,

surprisingly, “Have you listened to much organ music?” She talked about how the theme of the piece should pop out of the texture because of its distinctive character, something that’s easy to do on a pipe organ by changing the registration.

She took the players through a series of experiments—“try it drier,” “close your eyes,” “find the space inside the sound”—and wrapped up with compliments and more applause.

She then coached a string quartet on Waiting in the Misty Woodland, a piece newly composed by the quartet’s violist, Ellen Campbell. The piece jumped mercurially among the gamut of string articulations, from pizzicatos to long bowings. After the playthrough, Hahn waxed poetic about the opportunity offered when a musician works with a living composer, something she knows quite a bit about, prominently from her album In 27 Pieces: The Hilary Hahn Encores, a collection of twenty-seven encore-length commissions (Hahn said learning the music was “for me, the equivalent of twenty-seven violin concertos”).

“The composer can plant inspirational or aspirational ideas for the sound-world of the piece in the minds of the players, and the performers’ job is to inhabit it,” Hahn said. “The more rewarding it is to inhabit, the better,” she added. Campbell described the essence of the piece as the experience of traveling for Thanksgiving, seeing autumnal scenes through the car window, and finally arriving at the end. Hahn had the quartet play some passages again with this scheme of images in mind, committing to conveying mood over accuracy and setting up a dynamic effect like a cinematic scene break at the end.

One of the violinists hit their stand with the FEBRUARY–MARCH 2022

bow, swept up in the attempt. “Don’t worry— that shows commitment,” Hahn said, with twinkling warmth.

The following morning in Buntrock Hall at Symphony Center, Hahn led a master class of students from the Chicago Musical Pathways Initiative, a nonprofit organization that removes barriers for young BIPOC musicians on their way to top-tier conservatory or university music programs and a partner of the CSO’s Negaunee Music Institute. Hahn coaxed a bolder, brighter soloistic tone out of a thirteen-year-old playing Bruch’s Concerto in G minor. In an already polished interpretation of Korngold’s Violin Concerto, she answered a request from a sixteen year old to help her find more precise articulations. And for another sixteen year old bravely presenting the very same concerto by Dvořák that Hahn was playing with the CSO that weekend, she helped him find a more fiery tone in some difficult passages.

L

ater this season, Hahn returns to perform a mixed chamber program on April 1 with cellist Seth Parker Woods and pianist Andreas Haefliger as part the Symphony Center Presents Chamber Music series. Hahn and Woods will play a duo by Zoltán Kodály, she and Haefliger will play Beethoven’s Violin Sonata no. 10, and the trio will play be still and know by Carlos Simon, the current composer-in-residence at the Kennedy Center in Washington, D.C. The title of Simon’s piece comes from a quote from Oprah Winfrey, referring to the experience of mindfully feeling presence within calm. For Hahn, the idea resonates with her philosophy of music as a vehicle for human connection.

“Being a performer and being still in moments onstage, I do have a sense of enormous

overlapping layers of presence,” she says.

“History, composers who have gone before me, the thousands of hours of great performances that have left some sort of mark in the space, or, more immediately, the audience—the presence of all of us together is really powerful.”

Future residencies will include more concert appearances, master classes, community engagement, and hopefully extensions of some of her own projects, such as the Bring Your Own Baby concerts, where she plays complex, ear-stimulating, un-stressful music such as solo Bach for caregivers to the smallest and squalliest audience members, in a setting where their noises and biological necessities are welcome.

Her greatest contribution to Chicago during her term, though, may be the chance for all of us to be exposed to her particular approach to music and music making: clear-eyed but not simplistic, cerebral but not sterile, self-aware but not self-serious. As she said in response to a questioner at Northside who asked how she came to the violin (the questioner herself came to it directly from watching Hahn play Mendelssohn’s E minor concerto on YouTube). “I didn’t have a moment where I said, ‘Can I please play violin?’ I was lucky to have stumbled across it,” said Hahn.

“I love the physical feel of playing it, of activating my voice, that it is somehow talking. It’s also close to the heart.” She paused. “It sounds hokey, but it’s also physically true.”

Beauty is truth, Keats told us, in half his famous inversion. It’s also intelligence, humor, and joy.

a note from the senior director of programming

Welcome back to Symphony Center!

I am thrilled to welcome you back to live performances in Orchestra Hall once again during the ninety-first season of the Symphony Center Presents series. We look ahead to a bright future with this season’s concerts that illustrate the Chicago Symphony Orchestra Association’s ongoing commitment to offering presentations of the highest quality.

Our winter and spring 2022 season plans feature our hallmark mix of familiar artists as well as exciting debuts. In addition to upcoming appearances by Sir András Schiff, Yuja Wang, Yefim Bronfman, and Evgeny Kissin, the SCP Piano series also features the debut of Denis Kozhukhin in June. Our Chamber Music series includes today’s performance by the Mahler Chamber Orchestra led by Mitsuko Uchida and, in her first recital as the CSO’s new Artist-in-Residence, a unique program by violinist Hilary Hahn with cellist Seth Parker Woods and pianist Andreas Haefliger. The SCP Jazz series welcomes outstanding vocalists Dianne Reeves, Dee Dee Bridgewater, and Cécile McLorin Salvant, and new programs by Sean Jones and Chicagoan Thaddeus Tukes.

While I am proud of the limited, virtual concerts that we were able to offer during the ninetieth season of Symphony Center Presents, we sorely missed presenting live performances for you, our loyal patrons and subscribers, who make these presentations complete. I cannot tell you how much I look forward to seeing you in the audience, and I thank you for your continued support.

Piano Concerto No. 23 in A Major, K. 488 From 1782, the year after he moved to Vienna, until 1786, Mozart wrote fifteen piano concertos. That’s an incredible outpouring of important music and it corresponds precisely to Mozart’s heyday as a performer. These concertos were his main performing vehicles—as well as his primary source of income—and time has placed them among the crowning glories of all music. There’s little else in all Mozart’s output, aside from the great operas, to compare with the magnificence, subtlety, and consistent brilliance of these scores, and in no other works did Mozart so ingeniously merge the symphonic, operatic, and chamber music styles into a uniquely personal language of expression.

In the winter of 1785–86, Mozart wrote three piano concertos while he also worked on The Marriage of Figaro. This was the most productive period of his life, and the only reasonable way to explain the enormous and varied output of these six months is to assume that the intense work on the complicated musical and dramatic structures of Figaro set his mind racing with more ideas than a single four-act opera could contain. It has been suggested that the purely mechanical task of writing it all down would produce only six full pages per day. Neither that challenge, nor the infinitely greater one of conceiving so much glorious music, appears to have inconvenienced Mozart in the least. Throughout the winter, he kept to his regular routine of teaching and performing, while also maintaining a full social calendar. The only activity that seems to have suffered was his correspondence, so we have only a sketchy account of his daily life at the time.

ozart entered the A major piano concerto (K. 488) in his catalog on March 2, 1786, only a month after the one-act comic opera, The Impresario; just three weeks before the famous C minor concerto (K. 491); and less than two months before The Marriage of Figaro. Although it’s not documented, Mozart probably performed the A major concerto at one of the Vienna Lenten concerts a few days after finishing it.

This and the other two concertos of the Figaro winter are the first in Mozart’s output to call for clarinets. (Sketches show that Mozart started writing this concerto as early as 1784 with oboes instead.) Mozart begins as if he were following the conventional recipe for a classical concerto (which is totally unlike him), but then, after a few pages, he proceeds to ignore nearly every subsequent instruction. The result is the kind of risky—though not reckless— creation known only to the very greatest chefs and composers. The tone of the entire movement is generous and warmly lyrical, although,

as in the duet in the same key between the count and Susanna in act 3 of Figaro, there’s still room for mischief, doubt, and the thrill of imminent danger.

Mozart marks the slow movement adagio instead of the more common andante—what he has to say can’t be rushed. This magnificent and justly famous music stands alone among all of Mozart’s concerto movements, not only because of its tempo or key (it’s his only work in F-sharp minor), but also because it unlocks a tragic power that won’t surface in music again until Beethoven. The wind writing is particularly expressive, and the piano solo is as simple and haunting as any slow aria. Even in Figaro, with its celebrated mixture of laughter and tears, there’s scarcely a moment that plunges so deeply into the heart. The finale, a buoyant and delightful rondo, brings us back to A major, and, after the adagio’s revelations, it sounds like the happiest key on earth.

The ensemble had already fallen out of fashion at the time these works were penned, having ceded popularity to the instruments of the violin family and their greater carrying power. This represents a great loss in the history of musical performance, as the reedy, plaintive voice of the viols evinces poignant flexibility of nuance, the blend of consort instruments offering unparalleled, unctuous

richness. Often the opening of the chest of viols was an invitation to an evening of music making among friends, convivial and intimate. In spirit, and perhaps in timbre, the closest modern institution to the consort is the string quartet. A translation of these works into a version for the expanded string quartet or the string orchestra seems apt—beautiful and potent—collaborating with the resonance of the concert hall without ceding the sense of close rapport. We aim to draw our audience into the parlor, to invite our listeners to consort with us.

Clearly the viol consort ignited the young Purcell’s heart and imagination. These pieces are, as the title indicates, filled with fantasy, with mercurial shifts of mood. They both lament and frolic, wail and playfully scurry.

They seem to explore the boundary between private and public music—now on this side, now on that—slipping from one to the other with guileless naturalness. At times the seamless

blending of the parts into an iridescent tapestry offers luxurious comfort; at others, confrontations between parts provoke a visceral thrill.

Particularly exciting are the wild dissonances that blossom in the texture, each with its own special frisson. There are moments when a pleading dissonance, poised to resolve, instead slips into one even spicier and anguished. In the spirit of a great massage, these harmonies hurt in the most delicious way and give us a sense of the physicality of musical discourse.

Imitations and reflections abound; the music delights in intimate intertwinings, a sense of sensuality cloaked in geometry. Conversation and collision, friendliness and frictions. The world of the viol consort is replete with wit, melancholic sighs, dance and despair, and, above all, the pleasures of keeping company with kindred souls.

Piano Concerto No. 24 in C Minor, K. 491 In the winter of 1785–86, Mozart wrote three piano concertos while also working on The Marriage of Figaro. As mentioned earlier in the note on Mozart’s Piano Concerto no. 23, this was the most productive period in his life. Mozart entered the C minor piano concerto (K. 491) in his catalog on March 24, 1786 (it had only been twenty-two days since he finished his last piano concerto, in A major, K. 488); the next line lists The Marriage of Figaro, completed on April 29. One of the remarkable things about this concerto—along with the harried circumstances of its creation—is the way it penetrates the unusually dark world of C minor, while Figaro—with which it shared space on Mozart’s writing desk every day—is so unrelenting in its fondness for bright major keys.

COMMENTS

In the eighteenth century, a composer rarely chose to write in a minor key. Only two of Mozart’s piano concertos are in minor keys, and because of their power and emotional depth, they remained favorites of the romantic era, when it was tempting to dismiss Mozart as a sweet, facile, lightweight talent. The Concerto in D minor (K. 466) was Beethoven’s favorite.

(It’s the only one he played publicly, and the only one for which he wrote cadenzas.) But we know he also greatly admired this concerto in C minor.

After hearing a performance, he remarked to a fellow pianist and composer, “Cramer! Cramer!

We shall never be able to do anything like that”—though in his own C minor piano concerto (no. 3), Beethoven blatantly and lovingly imitates the coda to Mozart’s first movement.

At the other end of the nineteenth century, Mozart’s C minor concerto was still highly valued: Richard Strauss made his debut playing this work and composed cadenzas for it as well.

(At this performance, Mitsuko Uchida performs her own cadenza.)

T

he most extraordinary thing about the first movement—once we have adjusted our ears to the dark and sober key and to the sounds of both clarinets and oboes (appearing together in one of Mozart’s concertos for the first time)—is how Mozart seems to be inventing his form as he goes along—the solo lines, in particular, have a wonderful improvisatory quality—even though he is making the most carefully considered choices throughout.

At the very end of the movement, the piano unexpectedly reenters with quiet arpeggios that carry to the last measure (this is the moment Beethoven recaptures in his Third Piano Concerto).

The slow movement, in E-flat major, speaks with childlike simplicity. Years after Mozart’s death, Johann Nepomuk Hummel (the virtuoso

pianist-composer who had once studied with Mozart) published his own arrangements of eight important concertos by Mozart, in which he redecorated virtually every measure of the solo part. But he stopped short at this movement, recognizing that even the piano’s opening unaccompanied phrase, with its singsong melody and repeated chords, was perfect as it stands. The finale, a series of variations both playful and serious, begins and ends in C minor (even the D minor concerto ultimately broke away to end happily in D major), although

Mozart gives the conclusion an unexpected twist by switching, at the last minute, to a particularly lilting 6/8 meter.
