Hello friends and welcome to Boettcher Concert Hall. There’s no shortage of entertainment options for Coloradans to choose from and we’re so thrilled you’ve chosen to spend your time with us today.

Here at the Colorado Symphony, we’re not only the preeminent curator of live, symphonic music in the state, we’re also actively pushing boundaries, strategically positioning ourselves in this fast-paced and ever-changing world, and standing at the forefront of innovations that will inform what the future of symphonic music looks like for orchestras around the world for decades to come.

In that spirit of innovation, we’ve reached an extraordinary moment for our orchestra and this community by partnering with three incredible artists as part of a brand new initiative we’re calling the Imagination Artist Series. Featuring collaborations with the Wu-Tang Clan’s RZA, Broadway’s Mary-Mitchell Campbell, and Colorado’s own Nathaniel Rateliff, the Imagination Artist Series is providing these world-class artists with an opportunity for unparalleled creative access to our entire orchestra, while creating never-before-seen programs that will debut exclusively for our audiences. Mary-Mitchell’s Tribute to Stephen Sondheim was a huge hit with audiences back in September, and we can’t wait to present A Ballet Through Mud with RZA on February 17-18, and Nathaniel Rateliff ’s reimagining of Harry Nilsson’s ALittleTouchofSchmilssoninTheNight on March 3-4.

We believe that symphonic music should be available to everyone, and as part of this Imagination Artist Series, we hope to bring new concert goers into Boettcher Concert Hall to experience the awesome power of a full symphony orchestra in person.

Music can mean many things to different people and we’re thrilled to have this opportunity to explore three unique visions for what live, symphonic music can be, opening the doors to new concert goers, and expanding the boundaries of orchestral programming. We hope you’ll join us for one of these upcoming performances and come along with us as we reimagine the possibilities for live, symphonic music.

With deep gratitude,

6 COLORADOSYMPHONY.ORG WELCOME

WHAT IF I AM LATE?

For the comfort and enjoyment of our musicians and patrons, late seating is at the discretion of the House Manager and takes place during pauses in the program. Ushers will let you know when you may enter the hall. They may seat you in an area other than your ticketed seat so as to not disturb other patrons, and you may take your ticketed seat during intermission.

WHEN SHOULD I CLAP?

During most Classics performances, there is a short, silent pause between each movement of a piece. You can determine how many movements there are in a piece, and how many silent pauses there will be, by looking at your program — the movements in each piece will be listed there. The applause is usually reserved for the end of the final movement of the piece, after the conductor has signaled the end of the final note with his or her baton or hand. Holding applause between movements is considered respectful of the performers' concentration and mindful of musical continuity.

WHAT IS YOUR CELL PHONE/PHOTO/ VIDEO POLICY?

We ask that you please silence your cell phones and refrain from talking or texting on them during performances. Flash photography is prohibited at all times. We ask that you please refrain from taking any photos or video during Classics or Movie at the Symphony concerts unless the conductor is off the podium. During Symphony Pops concerts you may take pictures without a flash and may record short cell phone videos. Please be courteous to your fellow concertgoers and be aware that if at any time your cell phone/camera use becomes a distraction to others, an usher may ask you to stop.

CAN I BRING FOOD OR DRINKS INTO THE CONCERT?

You are welcome to bring drinks purchased at one of the bars into all concerts. Food is not allowed in the Hall, including food purchased in the Lobby.

CAN I BRING THE KIDS?

Kids of all ages will enjoy our Family, education concerts, and many of our Symphony Pops, Holiday, and Summer concerts. All children require a ticket regardless of age, and child tickets are $10. Classics concerts tend to be between 2 and 21/2 hours long. Please consider this when deciding whether or not to bring your child. If your child is disturbing other patrons, an usher may ask you to take your child into the lobby for the remainder of the performance, without refund.

HOW LONG IS A TYPICAL CONCERT?

Program length varies, but a typical performance lasts about two hours, including one 20 minute intermission. Visit the event page on our website, or flip to the performance details in this Soundings Magazine.

WHAT IF I’M UNABLE TO ATTEND MY PERFORMANCE?

Subscribers may exchange tickets free of charge — one of many subscriber benefits! Non-subscribers may exchange for an additional fee. You may exchange tickets in person, by phone, or online for another performance within the same season. There is an additional cost if seating upgrades apply, and all exchange requests are subject to availability. You may also donate your tickets back to the Colorado Symphony and receive a donation receipt.

HOW CAN I FIND OUT IF A CONCERT IS CANCELED DUE TO INCLEMENT WEATHER?

We rarely cancel a concert due to inclement weather, but when this occurs we will send a direct email notification to all ticket holders. Updates, cancelations, or changes will be posted on coloradosymphony.org and on the event page for the concert.

14 COLORADOSYMPHONY.ORG STORIES OF NOTE IMAGINE THE POSSIBILITIES Colorado Symphony’s Imagination Artist Series brings exclusive content from RZA, Mary-Mitchell Campbell, and Nathaniel Rateliff to Denver audiences

What is the significance of symphonic music in the 21st century, what role will it play moving forward, and how can classical symphonic music stay relevant with the challenges presented by modern society?

The Colorado Symphony has positioned itself as an industry leader in addressing this question by helping to imagine groundbreaking concepts that inspire new generations of music lovers while ensuring a prosperous future for live symphonic music in Colorado.

It begins with reaching larger and more diverse audiences and bringing new patrons into the concert hall. One way to accomplish this is by collaborating with musicians outside of the normal sphere of classical music.

In recent years, the Colorado Symphony has collaborated with some of the biggest names in contemporary music and has become a staple at Red Rocks Park & Amphitheatre during the summer, including performances alongside OneRepublic, Wu-Tang Clan, Weird Al Yankovic, Tenacious D, The Flaming Lips, Guster, and more. These types of performances — the outside-the-classical-music-box-type shows — are not only delivering vital revenue

15 COLORADOSYMPHONY.ORG

for this nonprofit orchestra, but also solidifying that future audience which is vital to the future of symphonic music in Colorado.

This season, the Colorado Symphony took an even more ambitious step, partnering with three leading musicians from diverse musical backgrounds to reimagine the future of the American symphony.

The Wu-Tang Clan’s RZA, Broadway’s Mary-Mitchell Campbell, and Colorado’s own Nathaniel Rateliff, joined forces with the Colorado Symphony as Imagination Artists, in a collaboration that is providing these artists with unparalleled creative access to the entire orchestra, offering a blank canvas to innovate, imagine, and curate orchestral programs while sharing three unique artistic visions that are debuting exclusively for Colorado Symphony audiences during the 2022/23 season.

This past September saw the debut of the first Imagination Artist concert: a Tribute to Stephen Sondheim, celebrating one the most important figures in 20th-century musical theater. From the mind of Mary-Mitchell Campbell — the Music Director behind numerous Broadway shows including MeanGirls,TheProm,MyLoveLettertoBroadway with Kristin Chenoweth,TuckEverlasting , and SweeneyTodd — this program featured some of Sondheim’s greatest works from Broadway hits like AFunnyThingHappened ontheWaytotheForum,Company,Follies,ALittleNightMusic,SundayintheParkwith George , and Into the Woods .

STORIES OF NOTE
“What I love about this orchestra, is how passionate they are about making all kinds of music and recognizing that every genre has a place in the concert hall.”

“I had the honor of music directing Stephen Sondheim’s last musical, Road Show , at the Public Theater and have such an appreciation for his entire incredible catalogue,” said Campbell. “Without question, he was one of the most important figures in twentieth-century musical theater, someone who reinvented the American musical with shows that went far beyond the genre’s traditional subjects and themes while writing music and lyrics of unmatched complexity and sophistication. Many of his shows addressed darker, more harrowing elements of the human experience, with songs often tinged with doubt and conflict about various aspects of life. Our Broadway community and the entire world was so saddened by the loss of this musical giant in 2021, but his music will continue to live on and it was amazing to celebrate him and many of his most beloved compositions alongside the Colorado Symphony this past September.”

The next Imagination Artist creation debuts February 17-18, 2023 with A Ballet Through Mud with RZA and the Colorado Symphony. From the mind of Robert Fitzgerald Diggs — better known by his stage name, the RZA, and as the de facto leader of the hip hop group Wu-Tang Clan — comes a brand-new symphonic collaboration that bridges the gap between classical and contemporary music. With a full orchestra at his disposal, RZA has created a unique and unforgettable musical experience, featuring spoken word, live ballet dancers, and rich orchestration from the Colorado Symphony. This is a performance that will engage the senses, provoke thought, and offer a never-before-seen look inside the mind of one of today’s most influential artists.

“This collaboration really came about at the perfect time for me,” said RZA. “As an artist, I’m always striving for ways to grow and evolve and when you get a chance to hear your music translated by an orchestra, it’s so fulfilling, the vibration of it, the feel of it. As musicians we strive to inspire or give inspiration to our listeners. At the same time, I was inspired to take my own music in a new and different direction and having the opportunity to collaborate with the Colorado Symphony had a huge impact on this project. This music comes straight from my heart and I’m excited to finally share it with the world.”

RZA’s relationship with the orchestra has blossomed over the last two years, starting with his Colorado Symphony debut with the Wu-Tang Clan in a pair of sold-out shows at Red Rocks and the Mission Ballroom on August 13 and 14, 2021. He returned to Denver on May 21, 2022, performing at the Colorado Symphony’s Imagination Gala at the Mission

STORIES OF NOTE

Ballroom, the organization’s largest fundraising event of the year.

The final Imagination Artist concept to debut this season will be led by Nathaniel Rateliff. In 1973, singer-songwriter Harry Nilsson released an album of standards from the Great American Songbook, an adventurous and unprecedented move for someone at the height of their powers in the rock era. The album, A LittleTouch Of SchmilssonInTheNight, takes listeners on a narrative arc through infatuation, courting, marriage, separation, and the inevitable slide into old age. This March 3-4, in celebration of its 50th Anniversary, Denver singer and songwriter Nathaniel Rateliff breathes new life into this classic album alongside the Colorado Symphony, blending his folk, Americana, and vintage rhythm & blues influences with Nilsson’s classic tribute to the Golden Age of American music.

“I’ve always felt that music does have the potential to take your breath away,” said Rateliff. “I experienced that feeling when listening to Nilsson’s A LittleTouch Of Schmilsson InThe Night for the first time and that exhilaration has been with me throughout every subsequent listen ever since. When considering where to take my collaboration with the Colorado Symphony, I kept coming back to this album. The courage of Nilsson to release an album of standards like ‘It Had To Be You’, ‘Thanks For The Memory’, and ‘Over The Rainbow’ at the height of his fame is wild to contemplate. And to create something so beautiful that takes listeners on an emotional journey through love and loss is what I’m excited for audiences to experience.”

In addition to their projects with the Colorado Symphony, Imagination Artists are acting as brand ambassadors for the orchestra’s Classics programs, advocating on behalf of the orchestra’s core repertoire to new audiences around Colorado while also supporting Colorado Symphony education efforts within the community. Patrons have been able to receive 80% off a corresponding 2022/23 Season Classics performance with the purchase of a ticket to an Imagination Artist performance, helping to introduce new audiences to the Colorado Symphony’s core repertoire. Nathaniel Rateliff was the brand ambassador for November’s performance of Beethoven’s Symphony No. 3, while Mary-Mitchell Campbell and RZA have been promoting the March 24-26 performances of the Brahms Requiem and the season finale of Stravinsky’s The Rite of Spring on May 26-28, 2023 respectively.

18 COLORADOSYMPHONY.ORG

“When considering which performance to pair with my Tribute to Stephen Sondheim, I was immediately drawn to the GermanRequiem by Brahms,” said Campbell. “Simply put, this is one of the most incredible choral works ever composed and a piece I’ve admired for many years, ever since the first time I listened to it. With the incredible voices of the Colorado Symphony Chorus alongside the Colorado Symphony led by maestro Peter Oundjian, this is a piece that will offer a mesmerizing experience for any concertgoer, whether they’re frequent symphony attendees or experiencing their very first orchestral concert. This performance also includes Ravel’s Shéhérazade , named for the protagonist of the One ThousandandOneNights story. Shéhérazade was a woman who deployed her imagination in such inspiring ways, which is what we’ve tried to do with this Imagination Artist concept, so there’s a natural and exciting parallel there that I hope audiences will enjoy.”

“The first time I heard Stravinsky’s TheRiteofSpring I was blown away by the audacity and uniqueness of the music — people literally rioted when they heard it,” said RZA. “But I also felt an unusually strong connection to the sound and rhythms throughout the piece. Stravinsky’s use of rhythm will resonate with anyone who enjoys my music and is an explosive, singular introduction to the world of classical music. I hope my fans will enjoy expanding their imaginations and experiencing a truly wild night of music with the Colorado Symphony.”

“So much of music is about emotion, and when I listen to Beethoven’s Third Symphony, I’m always struck by just how emotional it is,” said Rateliff. “It’s one thing to convey the meaning and emotion of your songs with words, but it’s much more challenging to convey those feelings through instrumental tone and melody alone. Throughout the Third Symphony, Beethoven deals with classic ideas of what it means to be human, themes that also resonate throughout Harry Nilsson’s ALittleTouchOfSchmilssonInTheNight Beethoven’s ability to imagine possibilities for music so far beyond what had ever been done before is inspiring to me as I continue to grow and evolve as an artist, and I hope my fans enjoyed exploring this iconic work with the Colorado Symphony in November.”

These collaborative relationships are proving vital to the Colorado Symphony’s efforts to introduce new audiences to live symphonic music.

“This is an extraordinary moment for our orchestra and this community, partnering with three incredible artists, providing an opportunity for unparalleled creativity and innovation, while creating never before seen programs that will debut exclusively for our audiences,” said Anthony Pierce, Chief Artistic Officer for the Colorado Symphony. “Music can mean many things to different people and we’re thrilled to have this opportunity to explore three unique visions for what live, symphonic music can be, opening the doors to new concert goers, and expanding the boundaries of orchestral programming.”

Together, we’re envisioning a bright future for live, symphonic music filled with unlimited possibilities. Join us as we push boundaries, meld genres, and inspire a new generation of music lovers.

BOETTCHER CONCERT HALL INFORMATION

FOR COLORADO SYMPHONY CONCERT TICKETS AND INFORMATION: call 303.623.7876.

THE COLORADO SYMPHONY’S WEBSITE, coloradosymphony.org, provides information on all Colorado Symphony activities at Boettcher Concert Hall and other venues around Colorado including performances at Red Rocks Park & Amphitheatre, the Arvada Center for the Performing Arts, and more. Other venues may require the use of another ticketing source; however, you will always be directed to the official ticketing agent or source by using coloradosymphony.org/navigation.

LATE SEATING: In consideration of our musicians, guest artists, crew, staff, and your fellow patrons, late seating is at the discretion of the House Manager and takes place during pauses in the program. Ushers will let you know when you may enter the hall. They may seat you in an area other than your ticketed seat so as to not disturb other patrons, and you may take your ticketed seat during intermission.

NO SMOKING: Boettcher Concert Hall is a smoke free venue. Any and all forms of smoking are prohibited in the venue.

NO FILMING: Audio or video recording devices, GoPros, professional cameras, or cameras with removable lenses are not allowed in the hall.

SECURITY: In furtherance of Denver Arts & Venues ongoing initiative to create a safe and secure environment for all patrons and employees of the Denver Performing Arts Complex, the Colorado Symphony Association is pleased to partner with the Denver Performing Arts Complex on the newlyintroduced security measures for Boettcher Concert Hall and all venues within the complex. We encourage you to arrive up to 45 minutes prior to the start of your event. This will alleviate congestion in all walk ways and entrances and will allow for proper screening. To review the full policy and prohibited items, please visit artscomplex.com.

In the event of a building emergency patrons will be notified by an announcement from the stage. Should the building need to be evacuated, please exit the nearest door, or according to instructions given from stage.

FIRST AID FACILITIES for all patrons are available. Please inquire with an usher should you need these facilities or assistance. Please report any accidents, falls, or lost items to an usher promptly.

ELEVATOR is located within the venue after passing through security and having your ticket scanned. Please follow the signs to the southeast end of the main lobby. The elevator is to the left of the entrance of Gallery 1 on the first level of the lobby.

COAT CHECK is located underneath the main lobby stairs in the hallway leading to Gallery 1.

BAR SERVICE is provided at most concerts. Concessions are managed by Centerplate. Please see the FAQ page regarding policy on food and beverage in Boettcher Concert Hall. The Colorado Symphony reserves the right to change the concessions policy at any time. The Colorado Symphony Association does not manage concessions, ordering, or realize profit from concessions.

LOST AND FOUND items should be reported promptly to the House Manager, via an usher, or directly. Lost items are kept by the usher staff until the end of the performance. After the performance items are taken to Arts & Venues Lost and Found. If attempting to claim lost property during or shortly after your performance, please see an usher. If you’ve left the hall and have a lost item, please call 720.865.4200.

THE GUILD SHOP: Located in Gallery 1 on the first floor of Boettcher Concert Hall, The Shop (as it's affectionately known) is the perfect place to pick up unique gifts, seasonal fashions, and of course recordings produced by, and of, the Colorado Symphony. The Shop is operated by a dedicated group of Symphony supporters and enthusiasts year-round.
