BEETHOVEN RETURNS Dear friends, You know my enthusiasm when I share with you my plans for an upcoming season. But you can only imagine the excitement I am feeling in anticipation of reuniting with you and the wonderful musicians of the Madison Symphony Orchestra in Overture Hall!

Last season would have been an unprecedented MSO celebration of Beethoven’s 250th birthday, sharing his revolutionary music and his passion for freedom and human dignity. Although these programs have been on hold for a year, it is as important as ever to acknowledge the extraordinary contributions of this legendary composer. With that in mind, we are again offering the Beethoven celebration with a few surprises that will add depth and dimension to your experience in Overture Hall.

In the pages that follow you will recall international stars Olga Kern, Gil Shaham, and Garrick Ohlsson, who have been favorites in Madison since their first appearances with us.

And cellist Thomas Mesa, whose Symphony debut was to have been last year, will have his limelight moment with the orchestra in the coming season. And, in addition to Beethoven’s works will be those by Mozart, Rachmaninov, Ravel, Haydn, Honegger and George Walker.

Ferde Grofé’s Grand Canyon Suite will be presented in a glorious multimedia production, and Greg Zelek will be featured in Saint-Saëns’ thrilling “Organ Symphony.”

I am also excited to present the MSO debut of violinist Kelly Hall-Tompkins, who will perform Wynton Marsalis’ concerto in its Madison premiere. We have a magnificent array of vocal soloists joining the Madison Symphony Chorus throughout the season with Beethoven’s great Missa Solemnis capping these vocal performances.

Over the years, the orchestra and I have so enjoyed cultivating the special relationship that we have with you. And, indeed, we are touched that so many of you helped our musicians through this past year with your gifts to our Musicians’ Relief Fund. Now it is time for us to express our gratitude in music.

We can’t wait to be with you again!

Preceded by Kabalevsky’s exhilarating overture, it is followed by Saint-Saëns’ majestic “Organ Symphony,” so-called because the addition of the organ in the final movement is an unforgettable sonic experience.

BEYOND THE SCORE®: STRAVINSKY, THE RITE OF SPRING A multimedia presentation starring American Players Theatre actors, visual projections and live musical examples with the entire work performed in the second half!

Transforming simple ancient folk music from Russia and Lithuania into a perfect storm of rhythm, harmony and melodies that were unlike any heard before its time, Stravinsky created the biggest scandal in the history of music in 1911. The Rite of Spring put him at the very forefront of the avant-garde and spread his name to the corners of the world. Experience this artistic masterpiece by discovering the history behind the groundbreaking composition during the first half of the presentation, then listen with a deeper understanding of the work from start to finish following intermission.

GIL SHAHAM PLAYS THE BEETHOVEN VIOLIN CONCERTO The first piece of this varied program, Rachmaninoff’s evocative and powerful score depicts Arnold Bocklin’s famous painting of an oarsman rowing a white-clad figure across a dark expanse of water to the mysterious Isle of the Dead. The mood lightens when the Háry János Suite from Kodály’s comic Hungarian folk opera radiates exotic exuberance. Then the renowned Gil Shaham gives the crowning performance of the program when he breathes life and love into the Beethoven Violin Concerto.

“ . . . the audience adored it, giving him a standing ovation after the first movement alone, as well as one at the conclusion . . .”
