elcome to the inaugural issue of Score, the magazine of the Paducah Symphony Orchestra! This new magazine is designed to provide you with an in-depth look at the stories that go beyond the information provided in our traditional concert program booklet. As you read through this issue, you will notice we took a very

deliberate approach to focus on the relationships of the people involved in making the music happen at your Paducah Symphony Orchestra. Inside this issue, you will find the concert programs, notes, biographies, and donor listings for the concerts and events during the months of November and December. You will also find several interesting behind-the-scenes articles and stories about some of the people who make this great orchestra the cultural gem of the region. For this first issue, we chose to lead with a feature story about Maestro Ponti, titled “Getting Personal with Ponti.” Whether you know Raffaele well or not, I am confident you will learn something new about this man who has served as the PSO Artistic Director & Conductor since 2010. Long-time patrons and newcomers will surely enjoy the story about “Musical Story Time,” which is a fantastic program that beautifully stitches music and literacy together. Additionally, we have included an article about Paducah COUNTS, a new companion book to P is for Paducah, with proceeds benefiting our Endowment Fund. We are also highlighting a few of our players in this issue! In addition to connecting with our patrons and concert-goers on a deeper level, the goal of this new magazine is to generate additional revenue for the Paducah Symphony Orchestra. To that end, if you are a business owner (or have influence), I encourage you to advertise with us. Our next issue will be mailed shortly before our February 14 concert. A project like this could not happen without strong support of the people behind it. Our business community has been tremendously welcoming of this unique magazine, and we are fortunate to have the support of our board of directors in this endeavor. Additionally, many community partners have stepped up to aid us in the process and to help us keep costs as low as possible, and we are grateful for their support. I would also like to thank my fellow staff members in the PSO office, who work very hard to ensure the continued success of your Paducah Symphony Orchestra. To them I say – Bravo! Lastly, your continued support for the Paducah Symphony Orchestra is truly appreciated! We sincerely hope you enjoy this issue of Score, and are confident it will enrich your life almost as much as the music promoted in its pages.

GETTINGPERSONAL WITH

PONTIpend a few moments with the Paducah

Symphony Orchestra’s Maestro Raffaele Ponti

and you’ll soon discover a personality that is

as enchanting as the music that his musicians perform.

The son of Italian immigrants, Maestro Ponti grew up

surrounded by the sounds of the “old country,” however it

might surprise you to find out what other gems are hiding in

his record collection.

(continued on page 10)

S



e spent a few moments

chatting with the maestro and asked him to share those things that drew him to music early in his life and what made him fall in love with Paducah.

Maestro Ponti, it’s obvious that Paducah has enthusiastically embraced you. So we’re all curious about who Raeffele Ponti is when the music isn’t playing. Tell us what were you like as a child? The same as I am today; I think growing up is way overrated. So, describe yourself to us in three words or less today? Italian, Italian, Italian! Music is such a focal part of your life. Describe your earliest memories of music. The few things my Italian parents brought with them to the United States were classical recordings of both symphony and opera. It filled the house with beautiful music and the Italian operas made them miss Italy and their

family and friends a little less. By the time I went to kindergarten I had heard every Verdi and Puccini opera over and over again. The Chicago Courier News described you as a “rising star” and noted that your energy on stage is “exhilarating.” What drives this passion that you exude on center stage? My job as Music Director is to create an environment for my musicians that nurtures their artistic and emotional qualities, in order to create the correct sound, color, emotion, and intensity that is appropriate for that particular composer and composition. In turn, the musicians return the favor and inspire me to another level. This is the magic of experiencing a live symphony

performance. The audience feels this energy and, in turn, inspires us again, thrusting the performance to the stars, filled with passion, energy, and joy! We definitely hear the passion in the music that you conduct. Who or what turned you on to classical music in the first place? My parents. As Italian immigrants they brought the beautiful culture of symphonic music and opera with them to the U.S. Studying classical music was as important to us as breathing. This is a gift that my wife and I also now share with our daughter. Did your parents want you to pursue music as a career? My mother and father always encouraged me to find something that I loved and to do it as if I could not live without it. I am fortunate to have found music very early. By the time I was in the eighth grade I was practicing three hours a day. As a result, I became Principal Trumpet in the Rochester Philharmonic Youth Orchestra. I also won the concerto competition to solo with the orchestra. My senior year in high school, at the age of 17, I became Fourth Trumpet in the Rochester Philharmonic. Two years later, as a student at the Cleveland Institute of Music, at age 19, I was asked to play Assistant Principal Trumpet in the Cleveland Orchestra to the great Bernard Adelstein. All of these achievements were events that kept encouraging me to continue to strive for excellence and to work harder. You and your wife are both musicians. What sorts of things are you doing with your own daughter to help her develop a love for music as well? My amazing wife, Isabelle Aubin, is a professional pianist and opera vocal coach. We have an incredible daughter, Sofia, who has grown up with my orchestras. She was attending rehearsals in a baby carrier, then walking, surrounded by that amazing orchestral (Continued On Page 12)

sound and by wonderful friends— the musicians. So she has always been around the symphony and musicians. When it was time for her to pick an instrument to play, she herself, selected the violin. With our travel schedule lifestyle, even as a little girl, Sofia would throw her fiddle over her shoulder and get on the plane, on the way to the next city. (Laughing) She thinks what we do for a living is actually normal. Today, she is a high school freshman and is working very hard towards a career in music. We could not be more proud. Your job requires a lot of travel. What city do you call home? I just moved my family to Naples, Florida. Although, I consider Paducah and Punta Gorda, Florida, my second homes because these places are where all of my friends live. When you are back home with your family, and not working, what sorts of things do you like to do? Anything but classical music. Opening a great bottle of wine, eating a delicious meal, and sharing great stories with friends and family are the things you will find me doing most evenings. If we went through your CD collection at home, what sorts of albums would we find there? Any guilty pleasures? I am a huge Toscanini fan. But you will also see Tony Bennett, Dee Dee Bridgewater, Sting, Al Jarreau, Chicago, Earth Wind and Fire, and the great Maynard Ferguson. Before becoming a conductor you were performing. What do you miss about performing? As a conductor, I am the only one on stage who doesn’t make a sound. I miss being in the back row of the orchestra. The front of the orchestra can be very lonely. You’ve spent much time in Paducah over the last four years. Tell us something about the community that you have fallen in love with. The people! This is what makes Paducah so special. n

ETTA FOLSOM unfolds the pages of history to share true stories with elementary school children about the lives

of three of the world’s greatest classical music composers. Folsom has spent much of her life teaching children, and introducing them to characters and music that captured her own heart as a young woman. Today, she and musical educator, Amy Allen, work with the McCracken County Public Library and the Paducah Symphony Orchestra (PSO) to present an exceptional musical and literacy program called Musical Story Time (MST). From the fine details showcased in the costumes that Folsom designs and creates, to the words that pour from the mouth of the storytellers, Musical Story Time shares true stories of the lives of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, Johann Sebastian Bach and Ludwig van Beethoven with young audiences, grades kindergarten through fifth grades. Each story is laced with history, music and even connections to other curriculum such as art, math, dance,

drama, social studies and science. “We do our best to keep our stories honest and forthright,” Folsom says. “We don’t use silly anecdotes, but rather tell the real story. We believe the stories in themselves are enough.”While Folsom, Allen, and a team of volunteers present the story through words and music, with the help of Nicole Brown and Mary Grinnell they also use props and costumes that bring these classic stories to life. Children are invited to participate using puppets, marking time to music, dancing and portraying

great men of the 18th Century. Kids of all ages are enchanted by what they see and hear. “We receive letters from the students and educators telling us what they love about our program,” Folsom says. “The goal of Musical Story Time is to connect children to these wonderful stories and to teach them the joys of music.” Today, Musical Story Time reaches nearly 7,000 students each year in private, public and home schools across McCracken County. Each student in grades K-2 will receive a copy of the book, telling the story of one of the three great composers. Third through fifth grade teachers receive a copy of an age-appropriate book about the composers for their classrooms, as well. Over 2,700 books are distributed each year. Musical Story Time is provided to educators at no charge and would not be possible without the generous support of donors and volunteers. For more information about Musical Story Time, please contact the Paducah Symphony Orchestra at 270.444.0065. n

My world was quite different than yours! No planes, no cars, no phones, no electrical anything! No recordings

of beautiful music! Ahh! But, we experienced music. Most people sang, many played musical instruments and some had caged song birds. And the music of nature abounded! Goodness! The 18th Century was a brilliant time for music! It was my good fortune to be born into the Mozart family in Salzburg, Austria. Momma and Poppa had a total of seven children, but only my baby brother, Wolfie, and I survived. Sadly, ours was a time of no modern medicine. To grow up in a musical home caused an interesting childhood. One day Poppa taught me a new piece on the clavier, a lesser, but similar instrument to your pianos of today. He and I had retired to the room where Momma was. Suddenly, we heard random tones coming from the clavier. Then, those tones became organized and we realized that Wolfie was playing the piece which Poppa had just taught me. Goodness! He was only three years old. Poppa was stammering , “What is he doing? This babe of ours! He is playing music! How?” Throughout history, people have written that my brother was a Musical Genius. I suppose that is true, yet I always saw him as my baby brother. We were very close, not in age as there were 4 years between, but we had bonded in love, in affection.I was called a child prodigy and Poppa had wanted to show me off to the country and he also hoped to make some money from that venture. So, when Wolfie became a musician at such an early age, Poppa’s ambitions grew larger. We, under Poppa’s

management, began our tours of Europe when Woflie was 6 and I was 10. Composing his own pieces, Wolfie asked Poppa to write them down. We also played Wolfie’s duets at concerts. People cheered Bravo! We saw all the great cities and some which were not so. Vienna, Paris, London, Prague, and Munich were on our route. We traveled by horse and carriage. One tour lasted for three years before we saw our dear Momma again. We toured for many years after, then Poppa made me stay home, for in my time, young ladies did not go around the country giving concerts. It was okay for the child, but not for the lady. Ahh, so different in your 21st century. I see young ladies doing many wonderful things! Good for them, I say! Gracious, such a different world! The joy of my days with Momma were when the post came. Wolfie wrote to us often and described his travels. He wrote funny things, too,

and would always sign in such a sweet way about kissing Momma’s hand for him. It could be a hundred times, a thousand times, and once he wrote” kiss Momma’s hand a Trillion times for me.” Our hearts were joined with his, though he was far away. Throughout his short life of 35 years he wrote over 600 pieces of beautiful music. So many experts have tried to explain his greatness, to analyze it, to understand it. I say to my 21st Century friends. Please just listen to his music! You will hear artistry, you will hear beauty, you will hear sorrow, you will hear joy, you will hear lively explorations, you will hear the Creator.Wolfgang is acclaimed as being one of the BIG THREE COMPOSERS of all time. He shares that distinction with J. S. Bach and Ludwig van Beethoven. How that can be, I cannot say. What I do say is that we were children together, playing games and laughing! All around us, the music streamed... Does it still? n

iolinist Glenn Dicterow has established himself worldwide as one of the most prominent American concert artists of

his generation. His extraordinary musical gifts became apparent at the age of 11 when he made his solo debut in Tchaikovsky’s Violin Concerto with the Los Angeles Philharmonic where his father, Harold Dicterow served as principal of the second violin section for 52 years. In the following years Mr. Dicterow became one of the most sought after young artists appearing as soloist from coast to coast. He went on to win numerous awards and competitions including the Young Musicians Foundation Award and Coleman Award (Los Angeles), the Julia Klumpke Award (San Francisco) and the Bronze Medal in the International Tchaikovsky Competition (1970). He is a graduate of Juilliard, where he was a student of Ivan Galamian. Other teachers have included Joachim Chassman, Naoum Blinder, Manuel Compinsky, Erno Neufeld, Gerald Vinci, Jascha Heifetz and Henryk Szeryng. In 1967 he appeared as soloist with the New York Philharmonic under the baton of Andre Kostelanetz in the Tchaikovsky Violin Concerto. He was then 18 years old. In 1980 he joined the New York Philharmonic as Concertmaster and has since performed as its soloist every year. Prior to joining the New York Philharmonic, Dicterow served as Associate Concertmaster and Concertmaster of the Los Angeles Philharmonic. During a New York Philharmonic tour of major American cities in 1986 he was featured in Bernstein’s Serenade with the Berstein himself conducting, and in 1990 played Carmen Fantasy under Zubin Mehta and the New York Philharmonic in a “Live From Lincoln Center” concert telecast. He was also a soloist in the orchestra’s 1982 concert at the White House.

Mr. Dicterow has also been a guest artist with the symphony orchestras of Baltimore, Birmingham, Chautauqua, Grant Park, Indianapolis, Hong Kong, Kansas City, London Symphony Orchestra, Mexico City, Montreal, Omaha, National Symphony in Washington, DC, and San Diego Symphony to name a few. He has also soloed with the Gawandhaus Orchestra of Leipzig under the direction of Kurt Masur. Glenn Dicterow performed the Barber Violin Concerto on the New York Philharmonic’s 1998 tour of Asia which included a concert at the Great Hall of the People in Beijing. Most recently Mr. Dicterow has played the concertos of Miklos Rozsa, Karol Szymonowski and Aaron Kernis’s Lament and Prayer with the New York Philharmonic. Mr. Dicterow is a member of the faculty of the Music Academy of the West in Santa Barbara and is the leader of The String Leadership Program, which offers training for concertmaster and principal second positions to Fellows wishing to pursue leadership roles in orchestras.

Mr. Dicterow’s discography includes Copland’s Violin Sonata, Largo, and PianoTrio; Ives’s Sonatas Nos. 2 and 4 and Piano Trio; and Korngold’s Piano Trio and Violin Sonata, all for EMI. He is also featured in the violin solos in Strauss’s Ein Heldenleben and Also Sprach Zarathustra with Zubin Mehta and CBS. Other compositions committed to disc are works of Wieniawski with Mr. Mehta and the Los Angeles Philharmonic; Lee Holdridge’s Violin Concerto with the London Symphony Orchestra and the composer conducting; Shostakovitch’s Violin Concerto No. 1 with the New York Philharmonic under the baton of Maxim Shostakovitch on a Radiothon recording; and the Philharmonic’s two recordings of Rimsky-Korsakov’s Scheherazade with Yuri Temirkanov on the BMG label and with Kurt Masur on the Teldec label. Dicterow’s most recent CD is a solo recital for Cala Records entitled New York Legends featuring Corigliano’s Sonata for Violin and Piano, Korngold’s Much ado About Nothing, the premiere recording of Leonard Bernstein’s Sonata and Martinu’s Three Madrigals for Violin and Viola, in collaboration with Karen Dreyfus, viola and Gerald Robbins, piano. Mr. Dicterow can also be heard in the violin solos of the film scores for The Turning Point, The Untouchables, Altered States, Aladdin, Beauty and the Beast and Interview With A Vampire among others. Both Dicterow and his wife, Karen Dreyfus, are founding members of the Lyric Piano Quartet and the Amerigo Trio. Mr. Dicterow also enjoys an active teaching career. He is on the faculty of The Juilliard School and is the Chairman of the Orchestral Performance Program at Manhattan School of Music in New York. In 2013 Glenn Dicterow became the first holder of the Robert Mann Chair in Strings and Chamber Music at the University of Southern California’s Thornton School of Music.n

SHORT RIDE IN A FAST MACHINE

JOHN ADAMS (b. 1947) John Adams is one of the most well-known and most often performed living American composers. Adams was born on February 15, 1947, in Worcester, Massachusetts. Growing up, his father taught him how to play the clarinet and was soon good enough to play in community ensembles. Around the age of ten, Adams began composing. Between the age of 13 or 14, he first heard his music performed. His early works were composed in an academic style and soon broadened to many other styles. Some of these styles included pop, jazz, electronic music and minimalism. He especially has strong roots in minimalism and utilized it

in his works frequently. John Adams attended and graduated from Concord High School in Concord, New Hampshire. Following high school, Adams moved to Harvard University, where he studied composition. Before graduating, in 1965, Adams was an active clarinetist, conductor and composer. After graduation, Adams moved to California, where he taught at the San Francisco Conservatory of Music from 1971 to 1982. Alongside teaching, he also was a residential composer of the San Francisco Symphony Orchestra during the years of 1978 to 1985. In 1986, as an opener for a summer festival organized by the Pittsburgh Symphony, Adams composed “Short Ride in a Fast Machine.”

the third movement be a little more substantial. Barber complied, but Iso thought that the third movement did not go well with the two previous movements. Therefore, Iso relinquished his rights to premier the work, which delayed the premier. Albert Spalding and the Philadelphia Orchestra, under the conduction of Eugene Ormandy, premiered the piece later on February 7, 1941. The average duration of the work is about 23 minutes. n

This composition is a part of a two-fanfare orchestration alongside “Tromba Lontana.” The Pittsburgh Symphony Orchestra premiered the work during the same year of its composition for them. “Short Ride in a Fast Machine” lives up to its name by being a very brief piece -- lasting only about five minutes. Adams likes to describe this piece to be similar to a late-night thrill ride, in a sports car. n

VIOLIN CONCERTO, OP. 14

SAMUEL BARBER(1910-1981) Samuel Barber was born in West Chester, Pennsylvania on March 9, 1910 and died in New York City on January 23, 1981. Growing up, it was apparent that he had great musical talent. His aunt, uncle and mother were all very influential in the teaching of his musical knowledge. His aunt, Louise Homer, was a leading contralto at the Metropolitan Opera, which gave Barber the access to many great singers and songs. His Uncle, Sydney Homer, was a composer of American art songs and helped strike up Barber’s interest in vocal music. His mother, however, was probably the most influential in his life regarding his musical talent. His mother was a pianist and taught him to play, when he was only six. Shortly after learning how to play the piano, Barber started composing his own music. Only about a year after starting to play the piano Barber composed his first work, Sadness, a twenty-three measure solo piano piece in C minor. He quickly commenced to write bigger and better things, such as his first opera at the age of ten. At about twelve years of age, he shared his immense talent with his community -- by becoming an organist for a local church. By

14, Barber was enrolled in the Curtis Institute of Music in Philadelphia, where he studied piano, composition and voice. School allowed Barber to learn more about his interests and better perfect his craft. In 1939, at the age of 29, Barber was commissioned by Samuel Fels to write a violin concerto for the Russian-born violinist Iso Briselli. After writing two of the three movements, Iso was pleased, but requested that

SYMPHONY NO. 1, OP. 35, G MINORPIOTR TCHAIKOVSKY (1840-1893) Tchaikovsky was born May 7, 1840, in Votkinsk, Russia. At the age of five, Tchaikovsky started playing the piano and soon showed remarkable gifts. When he was 14, his mother died and this is thought to have helped inspire his compositions. Throughout his life, he composed symphonies, concertos, operas, ballets, chamber music and choral music of the Russian Orthodox Divine Liturgy. He was the first Russian composer to make an enduring international impression with music. He even received an honorary doctorate from Cambridge University and was proclaimed a “modern music lord” by the critics of his day. Tchaikovsky started writing this symphony in March, 1866. Work proved sluggish. A scathing review by César Cui of the cantata he had written as a graduation piece from the St. Petersburg Conservatory shattered his morale. He also composed day and night. All these factors strained Tchaikovsky’s mental and physical health tremendously. He started suffering from insomnia, from pains in his head which he thought to be strokes, and became convinced he would not live to finish the symphony. A successful performance of his revised Overture in F in St. Petersburg lifted his spirits. So did a change of scene for the summer with his family. Nevertheless, he soon worked himself again into nervous and physical exhaustion by continuing to compose day and night. A doctor declared him “one step away from insanity,” ordering complete rest. Tchaikovsky complied. Despite his lack of progress, Tchaikovsky

sought the opinion of his former teachers, Anton Rubinstein and Nikolai Zaremba, when he returned to St Petersburg at the end of August. He had hoped for their approval of what he had written as well as accepting at least part of it for a St Petersburg concert of the Russian Musical Society (RMS). Neither

situation happened. Both men were negative, refusing to perform any of the symphony. He stopped work to fulfill his first public commission, a festival overture based on the Danish national anthem to celebrate the Moscow visit of the future Tsar Alexander III of Russia with his new Danish bride. Once

the commission was finished, Tchaikovsky completed the symphony before the conservatory’s Christmas break. This included modifications requested by Rubinstein and Zaremba as a condition for reconsidering the work. Tchaikovsky resubmitted the manuscript to Rubinstein and Zaremba during the Christmas break. Even with their insisted changes, they still disapproved of the symphony on the whole; however, this time they passed the adagio and scherzo as “being fit for performance.” These two movements were played at an RMS concert in St Petersburg on February 23, 1867, with no success. Tchaikovsky, who had looked upon St Petersburg as the premier musical location in Russia and been obsessed with having his symphony performed there first, was thoroughly disillusioned — not only with St Petersburg audiences, but also with the critical judgments of both his former teachers. He discarded all the revisions they had demanded, standing with one exception by his original version. The exception, it turned out, was unavoidable. At Zaremba’s insistence, he had composed a new second subject for the opening movement. He had discarded the papers that contained his original second subject, and he could not remember what he had originally composed. Tchaikovsky had to let the second subject as approved by Zaremba stand as it was. Back in Moscow, Anton’s brother Nikolai was willing to perform the symphony; only the composer’s insistence on a St Petersburg performance held him back. Tchaikovsky now allowed him to conduct the scherzo at a Moscow concert of the RMS on December 22. Though the scherzo met with little success, Rubinstein was still ready to perform the complete work. This finally took place on February 15, 1868, to great success. Surprisingly, though, the symphony would have to wait 15 years for its next performance. The first performance of the revised version took place in Moscow on December 1, 1883, under the baton of Max Erdmannsdörfer.n

Paducah Counts Our P is for PADUCAH book was such a successful project that we decided to make it a double. This year the PSO introduces Paducah COUNTS! Once again we have enlisted the gracious contributions of a number of local artists to create 25 numbers and accompanying bits of information about pieces and places all around Paducah. “This task was a bit more challenging that our first book-writing endeavor,” said Juliette Grumley, Chair of the Paducah COUNTS project. “Finding specific elements within the community that related to our 1 through 25 numbers brought out our best sleuth skills. But with the help of our intrepid editors and contributors we were able to ‘creatively’ come up with 25 notable parts of Paducah that correspond with our countdown. Actually it was really fun to work on and I must commend our team of investigators for filling in all the numerical pages of our new book.”

“This is a perfect holiday gift for everyone on your list,” said Daniel Sene. “What a better way to showcase our beautiful, creative city AND support our fabulous Paducah Symphony Orchestra at the same time.” Contributors and artists are listed in the back of the book. “We would like to thank everyone who made this book possible, especially our committee members Fowler Black, Mary Hammond, Dick Holland, Ro Morse, and John E.L. Robertson,” added Grumley. “We would also like to thank our editors Jane Gamble, Andrew Halford, Darlene Mazzone and Tom Rutter. And much thanks goes to Mazzone Communications and Amanda Powell for the beautiful contribution of the book’s layout and design.” The book will be available for purchase at the PSO office, Roof Brothers Wine & Spirits, Learning Railroad, Simply B Gifts, Midtown Market, Hank Brothers, Wagner Wine and Spirits, Yeiser Art Center and Market House Museum. n

HOMETOWN: LOUISVILLE, KY. UNTIL 1985; NOW A RESIDENT OF PADUCAH, KY.

How did you first get interested in performing music? The Lou-isville Orchestra had a series called Making Music for grade school children. It was very much like the PSO’s Education Concerts. After attending those concerts there was nothing I wanted to do more than to play symphonic music on a stage with an orchestra. I’ve played in an orchestra continuously since 1966.What is your favorite piece of music to play? How lucky am I that I have played so much repertoire that I can’t chose just one favorite piece ?!What advice would you give to aspiring musicians? Don’t get frus-trated when practicing but enjoy the journey of learning. Know that it takes time and it takes intentional practice to make music sound the way you want it to sound. Use the best instrument you can afford and be sure to use a metronome, tuner and recording device during practice sessions. Listen to music and practice your scales.Who is your favorite composer? Why? Rachmaninoff. His music is so expressive and passionate.What is your proudest musical moment? When my students play a phrase so musically that it gives me goosebumps. Three things you would want with you on a deserted island? My husband, ample food/water, a survivalist bag for two with all the tools one needs to live on a deserted island.The one word your best friend would say to describeyou? “Alto Clef.” He says even though these are two words, “alto clef” says it all.What was the last music you listened to your car? Something classical.

Favorite indulgence? Either a great fruit smoothieor strawberry cake; daydreamingWhat do you do when you’re not playing with the PSO? I own Symphony Supply where we rent and sell violins and musical ac-cessories. I teach beginning strings, middle school and advanced orchestra in the St. Mary School System. I also lead young string players in the PSO Sinfonia Orchestra, the feeder program for the PSO Youth Orchestra.Bonus: Anything else you would like us to know about you? My favorite song is “Brickhouse” by the Commodores. n

Every piece of music that I am working on becomes my favorite music at that time.What advice would you give to aspiring musicians? Practice, practice, practice......Just as important is listening to as much music as you can and attending concerts.Who is your favorite composer? Why? Gustav Mahler. I love his melodic themes and the grand scale of his symphonies. But it’s hard not to mention Sibelius, Respighi, and many, many, more.What is your proudest musical moment?

Misaligned Minds Bike Ride a BIG Success The Paducah Symphony Orchestra would like to send a heartfelt thanks to our volunteers, CRCC (Chain Reaction Cycling Club), BikeWorld and all the dedicated riders for making the 25th an-nual Misaligned Minds Bike Ride such a success. “We would also like to specifical-ly share our gratitude for the intrepid duo of Hutch Smith and Martha Emmons for their critical role in organizing this exciting event,” said Daniel Sene, Execu-tive Director of the PSO. More than 200 riders enjoyed per-fect western Kentucky weather as they pedaled through the rolling hills of our little part of the world. They even enjoyed homemade treats along the way. Travel-ling from as far as Colorado, Ohio, and Michigan, the ride was a testament to the enthusiasm for biking in our community as well as the devotion to providing great music and choral presentations via the Paducah Symphony Orchestra. “Once again, we are very pleased to have been the recipient of the Misaligned Minds’ generosity and we look forward with much anticipation to watching this ride continue to grow,” Sene added. n

CAPRICCIOThis term appears in a variety of musical meanings, used differently

at different periods and by different composers. In the later 16th and 17th century it generally indicated a fugal composition, but lat-er came to signify dances or dance suites or any composition that allowed a relatively free play of fancy, as in the Capriccio espagnol

of Rimsky-Korsakov or the Capriccio italien of Tchaikovsky.

How did you first get interested in performing music? My dad played the piano and organ, so I was always around live music. I joined my grade school or-chestra in 4th grade. The violin was really the first instrument I was ever offered the chance to play. I enjoyed it a great deal and never quit. What is your favorite piece of music to play? There are too many to name, but to name a few Respighi’s “Pines of Rome”, Debussy’s “Prelude to the Af-ternoon of a Faun”, Dvorak’s “New World Symphony”, and Rossini’s “La Gazza Ladra” are definitely at the top of my list.What advice would you give to aspiring musicians? Practice and listen to great musicians who have mastered the instru-ment you want to play.Who is your favorite composer? Why? Rossini. I love the way he builds up energy in his compositions and the song-like qualities of his melodies.What is your proudest musical moment? After wood shedding and practicing piec-es, that moment after you’ve completed a performance and see the end result of all your hard work.Three things you would want with you on a deserted island? My husband, a bottle of fine wine, and food.The one word your best friend would say to describe you? Ambitious. What do you do when you’re not playing with the PSO? I perform with an all-girl Alternative/Americana band called South-ern Sirens and teach violin. n

It would seem that if we’re hearing it and experiencing it we should know what it is. But do we actually? It’s music from hundreds of years ago played by big orchestras with lots of violins and an old guy in a black suit waving a stick leading the whole show. Right? Well somewhat. Classical music can be like this, but it encompasses a whole lot more. Classical music includes Gregorian chant from a thousand years ago, but also the music of Philip Glass from just last month. It can be as simple as a single singer performing a song, a group of friends playing a string quartet, or an orchestra with hundreds of players. I can be background music or it can wake you up and make you listen. So what IS classical music? Classical music is not so much from a particular time, as written for a particular reason. It is the art music of the Western World. If popular music is written to simply entertain, then classical music is written to express something significant or great. It is written to express an idea, explore a theme or let loose an emotion. Most importantly, it aims to transfer that idea or theme or emotion to the listener, and make them THINK. This is not to say that classical music is any better than popular music. Their purposes are different. Popular music aims mainly to entertain and can

do that sometimes better than classical music, but classical music has a deeper level. Remember that even during the time of Mozart and

Beethoven, classical music was not popular in the sense that it was enjoyed by the masses. Only the wealthy classes who had the time and resources were exposed

CAPRICCIOThis term appears in a variety of musical meanings, used differently

at different periods and by different composers. In the later 16th and 17th century it generally indicated a fugal composition, but lat-er came to signify dances or dance suites or any composition that allowed a relatively free play of fancy, as in the Capriccio espagnol

of Rimsky-Korsakov or the Capriccio italien of Tchaikovsky.

Music Makers

TrumpetA trumpet is the highest register in the brass family. Trumpets are among the oldest musical instruments, dating back to at least 1500 BC. They are played by blowing air through closed lips, producing a “buzzing” sound that starts a standing wave vibration in the air column inside the instrument. Since the late 15th century they have primarily been constructed of brass tubing, usually bent twice into a round-ed oblong shape. There are several types of trumpet. The most common is a transposing instrument with a tubing length of about 148 cm. Earlier trum-pets did not have valves, but modern instruments generally have either three piston valves or, more rarely, three rotary valves. Each valve increases the length of tubing when engaged, thereby lowering the pitch.

ViolinThe violin is a string instrument, usually with four strings tuned in perfect fifths. It is the smallest, highest-pitched mem-ber of the violin family of string instru-ments, which also includes the viola, and the cello. The modern word derives from the Italian word violino, literally ‘small viola’. The violin is first known in 16th-century Italy, with some further modifications occurring in the 18th and 19th centuries. Violinists and collec-tors particularly prize the instruments made by the Stradivari, Guarneri and Amati families from the 16th to the 18th century in Brescia and Cremona and by Jacob Stainer in Austria.

VioloncelloThe violoncello, abbreviated as cello, is a bowed string instrument with four strings tuned in perfect fifths. It is the second-largest bowed string instrument in the modern symphony orchestra, the double bass being the largest. Cellos were derived from other mid- to large-sized bowed instruments in the 16th century, such as the viola da gamba, and the generally smaller and squarer viola da braccio, and such instruments made by members of the Amati family of luth-iers. By the 18th century, the cello had largely replaced other mid-sized bowed instruments.
