WELCOME

Let me start off by expressing a huge heartfelt gratitude to the residents of Colorado and to all of the patrons of the Colorado Symphony for welcoming me to Denver – you all have made me truly feel at home here already.

In my short time as Associate Conductor since the start of the 2015/16 season, I’ve experienced such a wonderful and open community and a truly diverse and thriving arts scene. With this culture, surrounded by such beautiful scenery, I now fully understand why Colorado is one of the most special places in the world. I will say this – as an Australian I am still adjusting to the cold this winter but luckily it’s warm and cozy in Boettcher Concert Hall!

I’m thrilled to announce that I will have the pleasure of conducting my Masterworks performance debut with the Colorado Symphony during the final weekend of Shakespeare Festival: Romeo and Juliet on March 18 – 20.

This is especially exciting as 2016 marks the 400th anniversary of William Shakespeare’s death. To celebrate the life and work of Shakespeare, the Colorado Symphony has programmed Shakespeare-related repertoire for three weekends in March including A Midsummer Night’s Dream on March 4-5 and a special Inside the Score concert on March 11 featuring Duain Wolfe and the Colorado Symphony Chorus.

The Shakespeare Festival ends with Romeo and Juliet in which I’ve worked with the rest of our artistic team to build an exciting program combining the words of Shakespeare with the compositions of Tchaikovsky, Rota, and Prokofiev to create a unique and dramatic Shakespeare performance which features four local actors. It will also feature Bernstein’s American adaptation in West Side Story, one of my favorite pieces, and one that I’ve always wanted to conduct.

It has been an absolute pleasure working with the Colorado Symphony this season and I’m confident it will only get better from here. Thank you again to everyone for welcoming me to your beautiful home. I hope you’ll join me here in the hall again soon.

As we say in Australia to wish someone good luck before a performance – Chookas!

HHere will we sit and let the sounds of music creep in our ears

William Shakespeare, the incomparable musician-of-words, waxed eloquently – and even prophetically – about music and its power to move our souls. For when we sit here in Boettcher Concert Hall, we do indeed let the sounds of music wash over us and warm us with its compelling charms.

And then the…

… soft stillness and the night become the touches of sweet harmony.

Those sweetest of harmonies that emanate from this rounded stage…

…sounds and sweet airs that give delight. Sometimes a thousand twangling instruments will hum about our ears, and sometimes voices…

Voices that chorus the great words and music of the spheres, joining with the magical musicians of this mighty orchestra.

Such harmony is in immortal souls.

Shakespeare, the Bard of Avon, will receive his due applause in his 400th anniversary year with music of the masters, inspired by his own prodigious pen.

Music! Hark!

It is YOUR music of THIS house.

Duain Wolfe, Chorus Director and Conductor, with a respectful nod to William Shakespeare:

The Merchant of Venice and The Tempest


TThis is a special year for theater goers and artists of every genre, as 2016 is the 400th anniversary of the passing of one of the most iconic and influential artists to ever live — William Shakespeare. The English born playwright would give us 38 plays, 154 sonnets, and more during his lifetime, and has inspired hundreds of years of art since — not only through poetry and plays, but in painting, music, and so much more.

His work has also been the subject of many classical music composers who used his beautiful prose and stories as the foundation of their pieces such as by Tchaikovsky and Prokofiev, and in more modern compositions as with Bernstein in West Side Story.

The Colorado Symphony’s Shakespeare FestivalThe Colorado Symphony has devoted three programs in March to Shakespeare and his work, starting with A Midsummer’s Night Dream on March 4-5. In this sweeping program, guest conductor Hans Graf will lead guest actor Maureen Thomas and the Colorado Children’s Chorale, together with the Colorado Symphony, through Felix Mendelssohn’s charming and delightful A Midsummer Night’s Dream, including the unmistakable Wedding March.

On March 11, Inside the Score features Colorado Symphony Chorus director Duain Wolfe leading the orchestra and chorus in a musical exploration of Shakespeare’s most captivating lines and characters.

Finally, new Associate Conductor Christopher Dragon will make his Masterworks debut on March 18-20 conducting Romeo and Juliet, the definitive ode to star-crossed lovers. This program, also including the Colorado Symphony Chorus, caps the Colorado Symphony’s Shakespeare Festival with a wide-ranging expedition into the music inspired by the timeless drama including a quartet of actors. It’s no wonder that Christopher Dragon said in his welcome letter how excited he is to conduct this as his Masterworks debut – it promises to be a magical concert experience.

MUSICIAN SPOTLIGHT

Meet Associate Concertmaster Claude SimClaude Sim has been with the Colorado Symphony for more than 16 years and holds the title of Associate Concertmaster. Claude is also a successful chamber musician and has been featured with the critically acclaimed Miró String Quartet, and as violist with the Grammy® Award-winning Pacifica Quartet.

Claude performs Khachaturian’s Violin Concerto

During his hundreds of performances with the Colorado Symphony since 1999, Claude has performed as soloist with the orchestra on many occasions. The Mussorgsky Pictures at an Exhibition concerts on January 29 and 30 featuring Claude as a soloist performing Khachaturian’s Violin Concerto might be the most exciting for him.

“In all of my time here, I don’t think it’s ever been done,” says Claude. “It’s such a rarely done piece and a great opportunity for a fresh take. The piece is really special. The cinematic quality and sound reflect Khachaturian’s background and his Armenian roots. It’s a very accessible piece, the sweeping melodies are memorable and the infectious rhythms are inspired by folk dance.”

Finding new musical perspectives

Claude is passionate about letting his mastery of classical violin translate into many different kinds of music from chamber music, to bluegrass, jazz, and Latin music. Claude even experiments with performing on different instruments and in fact, his guest appearance with the Pacifica Quartet was as violist instead of violinist.

Claude is now in an ensemble formed with two local musicians, and their trio has played for events for the Colorado Symphony, such as Beethoven and Brews, and other events such as jam

sessions and jazz events.

“I try to play with as many varied types of musicians as possible” he says, “to get a different perspective.” He is currently writing original music for his ensemble to explore. Much of the material is rooted in the American jazz tradition, where he writes the main structure for the tunes but keeps space open for improvising. “It’s been a great challenge and joy working with my band to explore all the collective music influences we have. The endless learning process from working with world-class musicians like the other two in this trio and with the entire Colorado Symphony is what continues to inspire me.”

INSIDE THE SCORE BIOGRAPHIESDUAIN WOLFE, conductor and Colorado Symphony Chorus, director

Recently awarded two Grammys® for Best Choral Performance and Best Classical Recording, Duain Wolfe is founder and Director of the Colorado Symphony Chorus and Music Director of the Chicago Symphony Chorus. This year marks Wolfe’s 31st season with the Colorado Symphony Chorus. The Chorus has been featured at the Aspen Music Festival for over two decades. Wolfe, who is in his 21st season with the Chicago Symphony Chorus has collaborated with Daniel Barenboim, Pierre Boulez, Bernard Haitink, Riccardo Muti, and the late Sir George Solti on numerous recordings including

Wagner’s Die Meistersinger, which won the 1998 Grammy® for Best Opera Recording. Wolfe’s extensive musical accomplishments have resulted in numerous awards, including an honorary Doctor of Fine Arts from the University of Denver, the Bonfils Stanton Award in the Arts and Humanities, the Governor’s Award for Excellence in the Arts, the Mayor’s Award for Excellence in an Artistic Discipline and the Michael Korn Award for the Development of the Professional Choral Art. Wolfe is also founder of the Colorado Children’s Chorale, from which he retired in 1999 after 25 years; the Chorale celebrated its 40th anniversary last season. For 20 years, Wolfe also worked with the Central City Opera Festival as chorus director and conductor, founding and directing the company’s young artist residence program, as well as its education and outreach programs. Wolfe’s additional accomplishments include directing and preparing choruses for Chicago’s Ravinia Festival, the Bravo!Vail Festival, the Berkshire Choral Festival, the Aspen Music Festival, and the Grand Teton Music Festival. He has worked with Pinchas Zuckerman as Chorus Director for the Canadian National Arts Centre Orchestra for the past 13 years.

COLORADO SYMPHONY CHORUS

2015/16 Colorado Symphony season marks the 32nd year of the Colorado Symphony Chorus. Founded in 1984 by Duain Wolfe at the request of Gaetano Delogu, then the Music Director of the Colorado Symphony, the chorus has grown over the past three decades into a nationally respected ensemble. This outstanding chorus of 180 volunteers joins the Colorado Symphony for numerous performances (more than 25 this year alone), and radio and television broadcasts.The Chorus has performed at noted music festivals in the Rocky Mountain region, including the Colorado Music Festival, the Grand Teton Music Festival and the Bravo! Vail Valley Music Festival, where it has performed with the New York Philharmonic, the Philadelphia Orchestra and the Dallas Symphony. For over two decades, the Chorus has been featured at the world-renowned Aspen Music Festival, performing many great masterworks under the baton of notable conductors Lawrence Foster, James Levine, Murry Sidlin, Leonard Slatkin, Robert Spano and David Zinman. The Colorado Symphony Chorus is featured on a recent Hyperion release of the Vaughan Williams Dona Nobis Pacem and Hough’s Missa Mirabilis. In 2009, in celebration of the 25th anniversary of the chorus, Duain Wolfe conducted the chorus on a three-country, two-week concert tour of Europe, presenting the Verdi Requiem in Budapest, Vienna, Litomysl and Prague. The Chorus will return to Europe in 2016 for concerts in Paris, Strasbourg and Munich. The Colorado Symphony continues to be grateful for the excellence and dedication of this remarkable all-volunteer ensemble. For an audition appointment, call 303.308.2483.

POPS BIOGRAPHIESWONDERBOUND

The philosophy of Wonderbound centers around three fundamental values - community, collaboration, creation. Under the artistic direction of Garrett Ammon and Dawn Fay, a radiant energy has grown around the ten exemplary dancers that make up Wonderbound. Each dancer is valued for the unique personal perspective they bring to the studio process; building a whole greater than its parts. Free to “unzip their souls,” these artists are continually evolving as they explore their humanity through movement. From creating new works with Ammon to utilizing the talents of various musicians, poets and visual artists, Wonderbound’s dancers bring their

considerable classical prowess to the table while simultaneously tapping into a vulnerability that strips away pretense.

GARRETT AMMON, artistic director, Wonderbound

Garrett Ammon began his tenure as artistic director of Wonderbound in 2007. Having choreographed nearly 60 works over the past 16 years, Ammon has been recognized for his work through the Denver Mayor’s Award for Excellence in Arts & Culture and a Bonfils-Stanton Foundation Livingston Fellowship. Ammon keeps Wonderbound continually engaged in collaborative endeavors with the region’s finest arts organizations including Baroque Chamber Orchestra of Colorado, Central City Opera, the Colorado Symphony, Curious Theatre Company, Lighthouse

Writers Workshop, Mizel Arts & Culture Center, and Newman Center Presents among many others. In addition, Ammon’s deep belief in the value of live music as an integral part of the dance experience keeps Wonderbound actively creating with a wide range of musicians and composers like Hal Aqua and The Lost Tribe, Ofer Ben-Amots, Chimney Choir, Confluence String Quartet, Ian Cooke Band, Tom Hagerman, Jesse Manley and His Band, and Paper Bird. Always pushing the boundaries of dance and the performance experience, Ammon brings an eclectic range of other collaborators into Wonderbound projects as well. These individuals include visual artists Eric Dallimore, Mark Allen Henderson, Andrea Pliner and Tom Varani as well as poet Michael J. Henry, digital artist Kristopher Collins, photographer Amanda Tipton, illusionist and mentalist Professor Phelyx, and perfumist Michelle Roark. As a dancer, Ammon was a member of Houston Ballet, Oregon Ballet Theatre, Ballet Memphis and Trey McIntyre Project where he toured to Jacob’s Pillow Dance Festival, Vail International Dance Festival, HIDC’s Dance Salad and Wolf Trap. Ammon lives in Denver, Colorado with his wife and muse Dawn Fay. They have worked alongside each other continuously since they first met in 1999. More information can be found at garrettammon.com
