In an effort to describe a visit to Fingal’s Cave to his sister, Felix Mendelssohn sketched a twenty-one measure theme which later became the Hebrides Overture. Brahms, too, was a master of music as a postcard, a photo, of a place by evoking its mood and ‘colours’ with sound. Our principal oboe Cris Sewerin and principal trumpet Sam Cancellara paint Copland’s musical picture of the “Quiet City”. 8 year old Jonah Gallas won the Music for Young Children competition by portraying “Lightning” in sound. And, as much as Europe’s first female cathedral organist loved that instrument, Elfreida Andree leveraged the broader, rich colour pallet of the full symphony orchestra for her masterful Overture in G. In this concert, composers invite you to ‘see’ with your ears and heart.
