SUMMARY:James D’León and Friends Community Lecture

The Saturday before each concert during the 2024 – 2025 season\, Arizona Philharmonic will host one lecture that is open to the public\, highlighting unique aspects of each concert program. This educational lecture series will be interactive\, and is sure to provide both new and long-time Classical music lovers with a variety of knowledge from our guest presenters. \nOn October 5th\, join Steinway Artist\, James D’León\, for an interactive discussion on Hearing Colors and Feeling Sounds.\nDid you ever stop to notice what senses are being affected when you listen to music?

You will not only step into a fascinating world in where sounds will ignite other senses\, but you will also be able to use these skills at your next concert experience. \nTickets are $12 for adult and $5 for child for general admission.\nLocation is Ruth Street Theater at 11:00 am on October 5.\nIf you are an OLLI member\, visit YC.EDU here to see what discounts are offered on this series.

SUMMARY:Quartz Ensemble
DESCRIPTION:Dr. Joshua Harper and his professional chorus Quartz Ensemble return to Prescott to perform with  Arizona Philharmonic. \nThis concert brings together the Arizona Philharmonic and Prescott’s newest professional choir\, the Quartz Ensemble.   \nWe open with an early cantata by Bach\, followed by a passionate call for peace by the Latvian master Pēteris Vasks.  Next\, we hear a sacred cantata by Medelssohn that pays tribute to Bach in its musical form\, then a late Romantic work\, Rheinberger’s Stabat Mater: an emotional text focused on the figure of Mary in the Passion story. After intermission\, you’ll hear the choral works of Eric Whitacre that have been phenomenally popular in the last several years\, and he is represented here by his Water Night. The last two works return to the Passion\, and are a wonderfully effective pairing: a 17th-century Passion cantata by Buxtehude\, and a 21st-century composition by Caroline Shaw written as a response to Buxtehude’s cantata.  For complete details\,  please see the Program Notes. \nCome enjoy the precision and elegance of the combined forces of these two esteemed ensembles. \n \n\n  \n

SUMMARY:Serenades and Symphonies
DESCRIPTION:To open the Arizona Philharmonic’s sixth season\, we have a pair of Czech composers from two generations. Dvořák’s Wind Serenade\, comes from 1878\, a time when he was first achieving international fame. It is filled to the brim with Czech/Bohemian musical flavor. Martinů’s engaging Sinfonietta “La Jolla” was composed in 1950\, when he was living in United States. This is very much a work of the 20th century\, but it also reflects the folk music of his native land. We close with one of the brightest of Beethoven’s nine symphonies\, the vivacious Symphony No. 4. \nAs an additional highlight\, Arizona Philharmonic will premiere two orchestral miniatures written with Lincoln Elementary School second graders during an Arizona Philharmonic spring 2023 residency offered in collaboration with the Highlands Center for Natural History and Prescott Unified School District.  \nClick the links below to hear the composition and see the score. Then\, come hear the world premiers at this Sunday’s concert! \n Solitary Storm | Moving Mountains\n

SUMMARY:Elijah
DESCRIPTION:Chamber Orchestra with Quartz Ensemble \n\nMendelssohn: Elijah\n\nJoshua Harper\, Conductor \n\nIn their third appearance with Arizona Philharmonic\, Dr. Joshua Harper’s elite chorus Quartz Ensemble returns to our stage to present Felix Mendelssohn’s masterpiece\, Elijah. Building upon the success of last season’s Brahms’ Requiem\, Arizona Philharmonic presents another Arizona premiere of a Joachim Linckelmann chamber orchestra arrangement. Once again\, the stunning clarity of a 12-voice professional choir shines with the lighter orchestration that Linckelmann crafts. You will hear Elijah in a whole new intimacy. \nAs is frequently the custom in modern performances of Elijah\, Dr. Harper has removed a number of movements not critical to the story line in order to fit the work into a standard concert-length program. The numbers attached to the movements performed today represent the original numbers within the full oratorio.

The lilt of Renaissance dances permeates Peter Warlock’s most popular work\, Capriol Suite. Violinist Katie McLin solos in J. S. Bach’s Violin Concerto No. 2\, which is both modeled upon and breaking with Vivaldi’s concerto form. Strum is an engaging celebration of American folk idioms by acclaimed composer Jesse Montgomery. And Edvard Grieg’s From Holberg’s Time\, Op. 40 is grounded in the 18th century contrapuntal style\, but with romantic colorations. AZ Phil also honors the people of Ukraine with Ukrainian composer Myroslav Skoryk’s Melody\, a beautiful work embraced as a spiritual anthem for the nation.
