University of Maryland

Following last season’s acclaimed performance of Beethoven’s First Symphony and Mendelssohn’s Hebrides Overture, the SSO will switch things around and present Mendelssohn’s Third Symphony and Beethoven’s Cariolan Overture. Like the Hebrides Overture, Mendelssohn wrote his Third Symphony after visiting Scotland. Beethoven’s Cariolan Overture was composed for the tragedy about the Roman general Gnaeus Marcius Coriolanus. James Gardiner, a native of Sault Ste.
Marie, will be joining us from his post in the Toronto Symphony Orchestra to perform the Trumpet Concerto by Czech composer Neruda.

SOUND THE TRUMPET

Performing Arts Center San Luis Obispo

In "Death and Transfiguration," the 26-year-old Richard Strauss intended to depict "the hour of death of a man who had strove for the highest ideals—hence, presumably, of an artist." The heroic "transfiguration theme," which embodies these ideals, was borrowed by film composer John Williams for his soundtrack to "Superman." The trumpet concerto by Johann Georg Neruda, a Bohemian composer of the 18th century, is in the "heroic key" of E-flat major. In its original form, the concerto was a horn concerto for a virtuoso in the Saxon Court Orchestra, tailored precisely to his abilities. Its triumphant success began in the 1960s in a version for trumpet. By a roundabout route and after much refinement, Johannes Brahms arrived at his Symphony No. 1. Here, Brahms heroically emancipates himself from Beethoven, a role model he perceived as overpowering, in a hymn-like finale.
