Elliott Markow Featured Soloist in Granite State Symphony Orchestra Concert

CONCORD – If you ask Robert C. Babb, the Granite State Sympho-ny Orchestra’s artistic director and conductor, what makes the GSSO so remarkable, his answer will be immediate. According to Babb, it is Elliott Markow, Margaret Herlehy and the other members of the or-chestra whose exceptional dedica-tion to and passion for music make every performance truly unforget-table.

On November 8, GSSO concert-master, sought after soloist, and music teacher Elliott Markow will team up with GSSO principal obo-ist, University of New Hampshire music instructor, Margaret Herlehy to perform the J.S Bach Concerto for Violin and Oboe. The two will perform together at Bach is Back, the second concert of the Orches-tra’s 2008-2009 season. The concert will feature compositions from pa-triarch Johann Sebastian Bach and his sons Carl Philipp Emanuel Bach and Johann Christian Bach—both capable composers in their own right.

Babb is excited about the oppor-tunity to showcase not only Mar-kow’s exceptional prowess with the violin, but also Herlehy’s ability to communicate musical melodies to an audience, seemingly without ef-fort.

Markow began playing at age four and has continued playing ever since—currently on a violin made by Giovanni Battista Rogeri of Bres-cia in 1709. At age 11, he made his professional debut performing the Mozart Concerto No. 4 with the Boston Pops. He has been playing with the Granite State Sympho-ny Orchestra for over eight years and is currently the concertmas-ter of not only the GSSO, but also the New Hampshire Philharmonic, Nashua Symphony Orchestra, and Granite State Opera Orchestra. He has also performed with the Boston Symphony Orchestra, and the New Hampshire Symphony Orchestra.

Markow teaches at St. Paul’s School in Concord, Manchester Community Music School and at

the University of Massachusetts, Lowell.

Herlehy shares Markow’s pas-sion for music education. She is an instructor at UNH, and the Artis-tic Director of Music da Camera Chamber Music Workshops, which she founded in 1992. She is an ac-tive member of the Infinities Cham-ber Ensemble, a group which often performs at Massachusetts elemen-tary schools to engage and educate youth. She has also performed with the Portland Symphony Orches-tra, as a soloist with the New Eng-land String Ensemble, and with the Berkshire Opera.

“Working with Herlehy is a joy,” Babb said. “She is an incredible player, a great human being and a wonderful musician.”

The concert will be held at the Concord City Auditorium at 8 p.m. Tickets are available for purchase online at www.gsso.org, by phone at 226-4776 and at Pompanoosuc Mills in downtown Concord.

Elliott Markow performs with GSSO, November 8 at 8 p.m.

Oboist, Margaret Herlehy

KSC Redfern Arts Center Events

Inspired By Kaddish Celebrates The Arts At KSC

KEENE - Inspired by Kaddish will showcase the talents of area musi-cians, singers, and Keene State Col-lege faculty and students at KSC’s Redfem Arts Center on Brickyard Pond at 7:30 p.m. on Saturday, No-vember 1. Moved by the stunning debut performance last spring of composer Lawrence Siegel’s Kad-dish, the artists will unite their tal-ents to create a celebration of the arts at Keene State. A chamber or-chestra, a choir, and soloists will perform excerpts from Kaddish, and special dance works and read-ings from the original score will enhance the music throughout the evening.

Like its inspiration, the Novem-ber 1 performance – through the words and memories of victims, survivors, and bystanders – creates a series of musical and spoken vi-gnettes of the Holocaust. However, the production is not only about the past, but also about exploring our humanity and responding ethically to intolerance and injustice today. It culminates in a message of hope and peace that extends beyond the lines of religion, race, and ethnic

background.Tickets are available through

the Redfern box office 358-2168 or www.keene.edulracbp. Prices are $10 for the general public and $5 for KSC faculty and staff, seniors, youth 17 years and younger, and KSC stu-dents with IDs.“Groovelily” In Area Debut At Keene State

KEENE - GrooveLily, one of the hottest cabaret/musical theatre en-sembles in New York City today, will make its area debut at 7:30 p.m. on Saturday, November 8, at Keene State College’s Redfern Arts Center on Brickyard Pond. GrooveLily is a trio of creative musicians who in-habit a contemporary space that ig-nores the boundaries laid down by words like rock, folk, jazz, and pop.

They create original songs with no shortage of wit. All the while, they connect lush musical textures and soaring vocals with the blazing six-string electric violin of Valerie Vigoda, the lightning-fingered pia-no of Brendan Milbum, and the joy-ful drums of Gene Lewin.

With backgrounds in classical music, musical theater, jazz, and rock, they toured the Indie music circuit for several years. GrooveLily

is now making a new music that’s all its own. The success of their first concert-musical - the critically ac-claimed and awardwinning off-Broadway holiday show, Striking 12 (liberally adapted from Hans Chris-tian Anderson’s The Little Match Girl) has led them farther into the world of theater, where they have carved out a unique niche as a rock band writing and performing shows.

Tickets are available through the Redfern box office 358-2168 or on-line at www.keene.edulracbp. Tick-et prices are $22 and $19 for the general public. KSC Concert Band Takes Audi-ence On “A Journey In Sound”

KEENE - The Keene State College Concert Band will perform “Musi-cal Postcards: A Journey in Sound,” on Wednesday, November 5, at 7:30 p.m. at the Redfern Arts Center on Brickyard Pond. Admission is $10 for the general public and $5 for KSC students, senior citizens, and youth ages 17 and younger. Tickets are available through the box office at 358-2168 or online at www.keene.edulracbp.

The concert band is directed by Jim Chesebrough.

Gile Series Opens Season With Rhythm, Swing, Jazz and BrassCONCORD — The William H.

Gile Series will start its 2008-09 season of FREE performances with up-tempo, big-band rhythm in the national tour of IN THE MOOD, a 1940s Musical Revue on Wednes-day, November 12 at 7:30 p.m.

IN THE MOOD features the mu-sic of Glenn Miller, Tommy Dorsey, Benny Goodman and Frank Sina-tra while taking a retro look at the life and time of one of America’s greatest generations – a genera-

tion that shared a common popu-lar music. With music and dance that combined up-tempo, big-band rhythms and mellow, intimate bal-lads, the mood was set to inspire a future filled with hope, promise and prosperity. This was a time like no other in the nation’s history, a time when music moved people’s spirit and sustained their morale during World War II.

The Gile Series will continue with A Viennese Christmas, a celebra-

tion of the spirit of Vienna and the holiday season on Friday, December 12 at 7:30 p.m. With The New Sig-mund Romberg Orchestra, the pro-gram features 30 world-class musi-cians and four vocalists.

All Gile Series performances are free admission, and tickets are not required unless otherwise noted. Doors open 45 minutes before show time. For information call 225-1111 or visit www.ccanh.com.
