[Tchaikovsky] was going through tough times then, because he went through a divorce. This symphony is very intense and passionate but with a very optimistic and exciting ending. |
All works we will be performing are from the romantic period of the 19th century. They are very romantic, with beautiful, sweeping melodies. |
These three pieces contrast with each other. The works are accessible for people not familiar with classical music, so I would recommend this concert. |
We are doing a collaboration with the concert choir on Palm Sunday, April 9. We are also trying to plan an opera for next year. |
We have auditions every semester. There are between 65 and 80 members usually, depending on the repertoire I am programming. |
