Perspectives from the Executive Director
7Severance Hall 2013-14 7Gary Hanson
May 2014
The past several weeks this spring have been an especially exhilarating time as we approach the end of the season with this week’s concerts. Between May 17 and 24, the Orchestra premiered a brand-new, made-for-Cleveland production of Leoš Janáček’s opera The Cunning Little Vixen, and, at the same time, presented an intensive week of musicmak-ing and celebration in Lakewood during our second “At Home” neigh-
borhood residency. These two projects clearly showcased our commitment to serving the Northeast Ohio community with diverse performances and collaborative partnerships.
Our achievements with young audiences are just one measure of the season’s success. The Orchestra’s eff orts to build the youngest orchestra audience in the country have attracted na-tional attention, including a feature article in the New York Times this month. In the past year alone, more than 40,000 young people have attended Cleveland Orch estra concerts at Blos-som and Severance Hall, clearly demonstrating youthful interest in our core concerts as we help peel away the barriers to attending performances — and making great strides toward our goal to cultivate the youngest audience of any orchestra.
“Mr. Welser-Möst and his wondrous orchestra” gave “a musical performance of impeccable qual-ity and wide textural range” said the New York Times of The Cleveland Orchestra’s innovative animated production of The Cunning Little Vixen, presented earlier this month. Working with director Yuval Sharon and the creative team at Robot Studios in Los Angeles, the Orchestra created our own brand-new operatic production, compellingly combining live action with projected video animation.
This month also brought to a close the Orchestra’s special semester-long involvement with Lakewood’s music education programs as prelude to this year’s “At Home” neighborhood residency. Of the week-long residency, the Plain Dealer said that “The Cleveland Orchestra leaves the sold-out Lakewood crowd wanting more.” The action-packed week of ensemble performances, community activities, and public musical get-togethers drew enthusiastic crowds. The grand fi nale, a sold-out community concert at Lakewood Civic Auditorium, was broadcast live and is being telecast on Friday, May 30, at 9:00 p.m. by our media partner WVIZ ideastream.
A season of so many successes is the result of concentrated eff ort, many hands, and dedicat-ed focus. Not just from the Orchestra musicians, staff , trustees and other volunteers, but from the community surrounding us, supporting us, and collaborating with us. That young people now make up 20% of Orchestra audiences is the result of extraordinary support from leading donors who care deeply about the future of this institution. We owe a debt of gratitude to everyone who supports The Cleveland Orchestra. And, as the fi scal year comes to a close on June 30, we invite you to consider your own investment in sustaining these bold initiatives for the future. Please be counted among the thousands of supporters who enable this Orchestra to serve the people of Northeast Ohio with quality musical experiences, education programs, and community engagement activities.
I N P E R F O R M A N C E S A T H O M E and around the globe, Th e Cleveland Orch-estra remains Northeast Ohio’s most visible international ambassador and one of the most sought-aft er performing ensembles in the world. In concerts at its winter home at Severance Hall and at each summer’s Blossom Music Festival, in residencies from Miami to Vienna, and on tour around the world, Th e Cleveland Orchestra sets standards of artistic excellence, creative programming, and active community engagement. With the 2013-14 season, Franz Welser-Möst marks his twelft h year leading the ensemble, with a commitment extending to the Or-chestra’s centennial in 2018. Th is artistic partnership continues to move the en-semble forward through a series of new and ongoing initiatives, including: expansion of education and community programs in Northeast Ohio to fea-
ture music as an integral and regular part of everyday life for more people, in-cluding the launch in 2013 of an “At Home” neighborhood residency program that brings Th e Cleveland Orchestra to a single neighborhood or town for an intensive period of special activities and performances, as well as the broaden-

DRIVING THROUGH SEVERANCE HALL. When Severance Hall opened on February 5, 1931, the building featured a drivethrough for passenger drop-off and pick-up in operation in the 1930s. Later closed and used as restaurant space, the area became the Smith Lobby, with new restrooms and ticket offi ce space, during the building renovations in 1999-2000.

ing of the Orchestra’s ongoing education and community engagement initiatives to include Make Music!, a program of active and participatory experience and learning;
the establishment of residencies around the world, fostering creative artistic growth and an expanded fi nancial base — including ongoing residencies at the
Vienna Musik verein (the fi rst of its kind by an American orchestra) and in Florida under the name Cleveland Orch estra Miami (featuring an annual series of con-certs and community activities, coupled with educational presentations and col-laborations based on programs pioneered at home in Cleveland);
creative new artistic collaborations with arts institutions in Northeast Ohio, including staged works, concerts, and chamber music performances; a concentrated and successful eff ort to develop future generations of audiences
for Cleveland Orchestra concerts in Northeast Ohio, through research, targeted discounts, social media promotion, and student ticket programs, with demonstrat-ed results at Severance Hall and Blossom;
a variety of new concert off erings (including staged opera and ballet, as well as KeyBank Fridays@7 and Celebrity Series at Severance Hall and movie, themed, and family presentations at Blossom) to play more music for more people;
continuing and expanded educational partnerships with schools, colleges, and universities across Northeast Ohio and beyond;
ongoing recording activities, including new releases under the direction of Franz Welser-Möst, Mitsuko Uchida, and Pierre Boulez, as well as a series of acclaimed DVD concert presentations of symphonies by Anton Bruckner led by Welser-Möst.
Th e Cleveland Orchestra was founded in 1918 by a group of local citizens intent on creating an ensemble worthy of joining America’s ranks of major symphony or-chestras. Over the ensuing decades, the Orchestra quickly grew from a fi ne regional organization to being one of the most admired symphony orchestras in the world. Seven music directors have guided and shaped the ensemble’s growth and sound: Nikolai Soko loff , 1918-33; Artur Rodzinski, 1933-43; Erich Leins dorf, 1943-46; George Szell, 1946-70; Lorin Maazel, 1972-82; Christoph von Dohnányi, 1984-2002; and Franz Welser-Möst, since 2002. Th e opening in 1931 of Severance Hall as the Orches-tra’s permanent home, with later acoustic refi nements and remodeling of the hall un-der Szell’s guidance, brought a special pride to the ensemble and its hometown, as well as providing an enviable and intimate acoustic environment in which to develop and refi ne the Orchestra’s artistry. Touring performances throughout the United States and, beginning in 1957, to Europe and across the globe have confi rmed Cleveland’s place among the world’s top orchestras. Year-round performances became a reality in 1968 with the opening of Blossom Music Center, one of the most beautiful and acous-tically admired outdoor concert facilities in the United States.

Franz Welser-Möst Music Director Kelvin Smith Family Endowed Chair The Cleveland Orchestra
T H E 2 01 3 -1 4 S E A S O N marks Franz Welser-Möst’s twelft h year as music director of Th e Cleveland Or-chestra, with a long-term commitment extending to the Orchestra’s centennial in 2018. Under his di-rection, the Orchestra is acclaimed for its continu-ing artistic excellence, is extending and enhancing its community programming at home in Northeast Ohio, is presented in a series of ongoing residencies in the United States and Europe, continues its his-toric championship of new composers through com-missions and premieres, and has re-established itself as an important operatic ensemble. Concurrently with his post in Cleveland, Mr. Welser-Möst is general music director of the Vienna State Opera. With a committed focus on music education in Northeast Ohio, Franz Welser-Möst has taken Th e Cleveland Orchestra back into public schools with per-formances in collaboration with the Cleveland Metropolitan School District. Mr. Welser-Möst’s championship of community music-making expands upon his active participation in educational programs and collaborative programming, including the Cleveland Orchestra Youth Orchestra and partnerships with music conservato-ries, universities, and other arts institutions across Northeast Ohio. Under Mr. Welser-Möst’s leadership, Th e Cleveland Orchestra has established an ongoing biennial residency in Vienna at the famed Musikverein concert hall and another at Switzerland’s Lucerne Festival. Together, they have appeared in residence at Suntory Hall in Tokyo, Japan, and at the Salzburg Festival, where a 2008 residency included fi ve sold-out performances of a staged production of Dvořák’s opera Rusalka. In the United States, Mr. Welser-Möst has established an annual multi-week Cleveland Orch estra residency in Florida under the name Cleveland Orchestra Miami and, in 2011, launched a regular new residency at New York’s Lincoln Center Festival. To the start of this season, Th e Cleveland Orchestra has performed fourteen world and fi ft een United States premieres under Franz Welser-Möst’s direction. Th rough the Roche Commissions project, he and the Orchestra have premiered works by Harrison Birtwistle, Chen Yi, Hanspeter Kyburz, George Benjamin, Toshio Hosokawa, and Matthias Pintscher in partnership with the Lucerne Festi-val and Carnegie Hall. In addition, the Daniel R. Lewis Young Composer Fellow program has brought new voices to the repertoire, including Pintscher, Marc-An-dré Dalbavie, Susan Botti, Julian Anderson, Johannes Maria Staud, Jörg Widmann, Sean Shepherd, and Ryan Wigglesworth. Franz Welser-Möst has led a series of opera performances during his tenure

in Cleveland, re-establishing the Orchestra as an important oper-atic ensemble. Following six seasons of opera-in-concert presen-tations, he brought fully staged opera back to Severance Hall with a three-season cycle of Zurich Opera productions of the Mozart-Da Ponte operas. He led concert performances of Strauss’s Sa-lome at Severance Hall and at Carnegie Hall in May 2012 and in May 2014 leads an innovative made-for-Cleveland production of Leoš Janáček’s Th e Cunning Little Vixen at Severance Hall. Franz Welser-Möst became general music director of the Vienna State Opera in 2010. His long partnership with the com-pany has included acclaimed performances of Tristan and Isol-de, a new production of Wagner’s Ring cycle with stage director
Sven-Eric Bechtolf, and critically praised new productions of Hindemith’s Cardillac and Janáček’s Katya Kabanova and From the House of the Dead. During the 2013-14 season, his Vienna schedule includes a new production of Puccini’s Th e Girl of the Golden West, as well as performances of Tristan and Isolde, Verdi’s Don Carlo, Beethoven’s Fidelio, and Richard Strauss’s Ariadne auf Naxos and Der Rosenkavalier. Mr. Welser-Möst also maintains an ongoing relationship with the Vienna Phil-harmonic. Recent performances with the Philharmonic include appearances at New York’s Carnegie Hall, in concert at La Scala Milan, and in opera presentations at the Salzburg Festival. He also led the Philharmonic’s New Year’s Day concert, viewed by telecast in seventy countries worldwide in 2011 and again in 2013. Across a decade-long tenure with the Zurich Opera, culminating in three seasons as general music di-rector (2005-08), Mr. Welser-Möst led the company in more than 40 new productions. Franz Welser-Möst’s recordings and videos have won major awards, including the Gramophone Award, Diapason d’Or, Japanese Record Academy Award, and two Grammy nominations. With Th e Cleveland Orchestra, he has created DVD re-cordings of live performances of fi ve of Bruckner’s symphonies, presented in three acoustically distinctive venues (the Abbey of St. Florian in Austria, Vienna’s Musik-verein, and Severance Hall). With Cleveland, he has also released a recording of Beethoven’s Ninth Symphony as well as an all-Wagner album featuring soprano Measha Brueggergosman. DVD releases on the EMI label have included Mr. Wels-er-Möst leading Zurich Opera productions of Th e Marriage of Figaro, Così fan tutte, Don Giovanni, Der Rosenkavalier, Fierrabras, and Peter Grimes. For his talents and dedication, Mr. Welser-Möst has received honors that include recognition from the Western Law Center for Disability Rights, honor-ary membership in the Vienna Singverein, appointment as an Academician of the European Academy of Yuste, a Gold Medal from the Upper Austrian government for his work as a cultural ambassador, a Decoration of Honor from the Republic of Austria for his artistic achievements, and the Kilenyi Medal from the Bruckner So-ciety of America. He is the co-author of Cadences: Observations and Conversations, published in a German edition in 2007.

Cleveland Orchestra violinist Sonja Braat-en Molloy has been given a unique opportuni-ty to perform on a special violin that was given to the Music Settlement by acclaimed violinist Melvin Ritter. He and his wife, pianist Jane Allen, were known as “America’s most popular violin-piano duo” in the 1950s and ’60s. Mol-loy, who has been a member of The Cleveland Orchestra since 2000, is also a member of the Music Settlement’s teaching faculty. Melvin Ritter — a national Music League Award winner — served as concertmaster for both the Tampa Symphony and the Saint Louis Symphony. Born in 1923 in Cleveland, he received his initial music instruction at what was then known as the Cleveland Music School Settlement. When Ritter died in Oc-tober 2012, his legacy resulted in a heartfelt gift to the Settlement of his 1665 Amati “ex-

It would be wrong to silence the legacy of Mr. Ritter and the ex-Hep-ton.” After great deliberation, the Settlement’s board of directors chose to loan the violin to a member of its teaching faculty who also plays for The Cleveland Orchestra, and Sonja Molloy was given the honor of using the instrument. “I fi nd it thrilling to imagine all the diff er-ent personalities who have had the pleasure of playing the ex-Hepton,” says Molloy. “I’m grateful to have been given the honor of rous-ing this incredible instrument from its recent sleep, and proud to help Melvin Ritter’s legacy resound at the Music Settlement and at Sever-ance Hall.”

RABuilding Audiences for the Future . . . Today!
Th e Cleveland Orchestra is committed to developing interest in classical music among young people. In fact, we are building the youngest audience of any orchestra in the country. With the help of generous contributors, the Orch estra has expanded discounted ticket off erings through several new programs. In the opening months of the current Sev-erance Hall season, student attendance doubled from a year ago, with 20% of audiences now made up of students enthusiastic for experiencing the best orchestra anywhere.
“UNDE R 18s FRE E ” FOR FAMILIE S Introduced for Blossom Music Festival concerts in 2011, our “Under 18s Free” for families program now includes select Cleveland Orchestra concerts at Severance Hall each season. Th is program off ers free tickets (one per regular-priced adult paid admission) to young people ages 7-17 to the Orchestra’s Fridays@7, Friday Morning at 11, and Sunday Aft ernoon at 3 Classical Concerts.
STUDE NT TICKE T PROGRAMS
During Th e Cleveland Orchestra’s 2013-14 season, the Student Advantage and Frequent Fan Card programs, Student Ambassadors, and off ers for student groups attending together have been responsible for bringing more high school and college age students to Severance Hall than ever before. Th e Orchestra’s ongoing Student Advantage Program provides opportunities for students to attend concerts at Severance Hall and Blossom through discount-ed ticket off ers. Membership is free and rewards members with discounted ticket purchases. For this season, a record 6,000 students have joined. Th e Student Frequent Fan Card was introduced a year ago with great success, and continues to grow. Priced at $50, the Fan Card off ers students single tickets (one per Fan Card holder per week) to weekly Classical Concerts all season long. All of these programs are supported by Th e Cleveland Orchestra’s Center for Future Audiences, including support from the Center’s Alexander and Sarah Cut-ler Fund for Student Audiences.

T H I S W E E K E N D ’ S P R O G R A M S feature three works from the 20th century. Two are Russian — one a concert piece, the other a suite excerpted from a grand ballet on a familiar childhood subject. For the week’s evening concerts, these are joined by a too-rarely-heard violin concerto by one of England’s greatest writers for voice. Stravinsky’s Scherzo fantastique from 1908 is an early-ish
work by this Russian, displaying his showmanship and early mastery of orchestration — with some telltale signs of the experimentation of ideas that would soon cause his name to be known worldwide. Benjamin Britten’s Violin Concerto was written while the composer was in Canada in 1939, just as the
start of World War II engulfed Europe. It is at once beautiful and powerful, but in ways unlike some better-known concertos. Violinist Simone Lamsma makes her debut here, playing Th e Cleveland Orch-estra’s fi rst performances of this work. To close, guest conductor Vladimir Jurowski has chosen his own extended concert suite from Prokofi ev’s ballet Cinderella. At times sounding
like a musical cousin of Prokofi ev’s more famous Romeo and Juliet, this ballet score nonetheless has its own unique fl avors, sounds, and special delights. And Jurow-ski has provided projected supertitles to help us connect the music directly with the action. —Eric Sellen

Vladimir JurowskiRussian conductor Vladimir Jurowski is acclaimed for his work as an operatic and orchestral conductor. He currently serves as principal conductor of the London Philharmonic Or-chestra, principal artist of the Orchestra of the Age of Enlight-enment, and artistic director of the Russian State Academic Symphony Orchestra. He is making his Cleveland Orchestra debut with this weekend’s concerts. Born in Moscow, Vladimir Jurowski began his musical studies at Moscow University’s Music College. In 1990, he re-located with his family to Germany and continued his edu-cation in Dresden and Berlin, studying conducting with Rolf Reuter and vocal coaching with Semyon Skigin. Mr. Jurowski made his international debut at the Wexford Festival in 1995, also appearing that same year at London’s Royal Opera House. Mr. Jurowski was appointed principal guest conductor of the London Phil-harmonic Orchestra in 2003, and became principal conductor in 2007. He has also served as music director of Glyndebourne Festival Opera (2001-13), principal guest conductor of the Russian National Orchestra (2005-09), principal guest conductor of the Teatro Comunale di Bologna (2000-03), and fi rst kapellmeister of the Berlin Comic Opera (1997-2001). Vladimir Jurowski has appeared on the podium with many of the world’s leading orchestras in both Europe and North America, including the Berlin Phil-harmonic, Amsterdam’s Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra, Philadelphia Orchestra, Leipzig Gewandhaus Orchestra, Boston Symphony, Chicago Symphony, Zurich Ton-halle Orchestra, Staatskapelle Dresden, and the Vienna Philharmonic. Recent and upcoming engagements include appearances with the New York Philharmonic, San Francisco Symphony, and the Mahler Chamber Orchestra. Mr. Jurowski’s operatic work has also ranged on both sides of the Atlantic. He made his debut with New York’s Metropolitan Opera in 1999 with Verdi’s Rigolet-to, and has since returned for Janáček’s Jenůfa, Tchaikovsky’s Queen of Spades, and Humperdinck’s Hansel and Gretel. He has also conducted Wagner’s Parsifal and Berg’s Wozzeck at the Welsh National Opera, Prokofi ev’s War and Peace at the Op-era National de Paris, and Tchaikovsky’s Eugene Onegin at Teatro alla Scala Milan, as well as many productions of a wide range of repertoire during his tenure with Glynde bourne. Mr. Jurowski’s extensive discography features albums on BMG, ECM, and Naxos-Marco Polo, as well as the London Philharmonic Orchestra’s and Glynde-bourne Opera’s own labels. He has also recorded for PentaTone with the Russian National Orchestra, and can be seen leading works on DVDs released by Glynde-bourne, the London Philharmonic Orchestra, and the Metropolitan Opera.

Scherzo fantastique, Opus 3composed 1907-08
N O T A L L O F the music that Stravinsky composed before 1910, when the ballet Th e Firebird broke upon an astonished audience at the Paris Opéra, has survived. But what we have reveals a young composer imitating his seniors and simultaneously fore-shadowing great things to come. Until he was twenty, Stravinsky’s chief mentor was his father, a prominent opera singer in St. Petersburg — although Stravinsky père discouraged his son from a career in music. Aft er his father’s death in 1902, he found a sympathetic guide in Rimsky-Korsakov, whose sons were Stravinsky’s friends also. Rimsky-Korsakov was director of the St. Petersburg Con-servatory and as dedicated a teacher as Stravinsky was pupil. Th is was where Stravinsky learned how to apply colorful or-chestration and to manipulate brilliant chromatic harmony. For fi ve years, a period of tense political unrest in Russia, Stravinsky kept steadily on with his work, attending Rimsky’s class twice a week and helping his master in turn with orchestration duties when needed. He also got married to his fi rst cousin and had two children. Quite soon he had completed a symphony. It was dedicated to Rimsky-Korsakov, who arranged a private performance. Th is was followed by two highly-colored orchestral works, Scherzo fantastique and Fireworks. But before either of these were fi n-ished, Rimsky-Korsakov died. Both pieces were performed in the same concert, on February 6, 1909, in his memory. Th e orchestra for the Scherzo fantastique is rich in the higher woodwinds, but without lower brass and timpani. Th is accounts for the piece’s brittle sonority. Even so, the profusion of angular, chromatic decoration in the winds is already a rec-ognizable Stravinskian trademark. At the same time, the com-poser is still thinking in regular four-bar phrases, and moving the music on swift ly just as in a standard symphonic scherzo. Th e equivalent of the Trio portion of a symphony movement is represented by a slow section with echoes of the musical writing from Richard Wagner’s opera Parsifal, followed by a return of the scherzo material itself. Stravinsky later said the piece owed more to Mendelssohn than to Rimsky. A snatch of Rimsky-Korsakov’s bumble-bee music accounts for a ballet titled Th e Bees, which was staged with Stravinsky’s music at the

Paris Opéra in 1917, without the composer’s permission. By that time, Stravinsky was world famous, thanks largely to an individual who was present at the concert in 1909 when the Scherzo fantastique was fi rst played — the stage impresario Sergei Diaghilev. Th e plan for creating and writing Th e Firebird was worked out almost immediately aft er this premiere.

Hugh Macdonald is Avis H. Blewett Professor Emeritus of Music at Washington University in St. Louis and is a noted authority on French
music. He has written books on Beethoven, Berlioz, and Scriabin.
Stravinsky composed his Scherzo fantastique between June 1907 and March 1908. The dedicatee, Alexander Si-loti, led the fi rst performance on February 6, 1909, in one of his own concerts in St. Petersburg. This work runs 10
minutes in performance. Stravinsky scored it for 3 fl utes (second doubling on alto fl ute and third doubling piccolo) and piccolo, 2 oboes and english horn, 3 clarinets (third doubling E-fl at clarinet) and bass clarinet, 2 bassoons and contrabassoon, 4 horns,
3 trumpets, percussion (cym-bals), celesta, 3 harps, and strings. The Cleveland Orchestra has presented this work on only one previous occasion, as part of a weekend of concerts in November 1994 under the direction of Pierre Boulez.

Most of us know and love these four notes.
No one cares how long it took Beethoven to compose them.
Accomplishments are what matter. How long it takes to achieve them does not. That’s why Tucker Ellis rewards its attorneys for accomplishing our clients’ goals, not merely billing hours.
Each of the past several years Tucker Ellis has earned more than 60% of its revenue through fee arrangements tied to measures other than the billable hour.
And our results—while not (yet) as universally acclaimed as Beethoven’s—are viewed by our clients as quite outstanding.

BENJAMIN
Bri en AT 1OO
This is one of several works that The Cleve-land Orchestra is per-forming this season in commemora on of the 100th anniversary of Bri en’s birth.
Violin Concerto, Opus 15composed 1938-39
B E N J A M I N B R I T T E N ’ S concertos have never fared as well as his vocal music. Nor have the two orchestral works that serve a particular purpose — the Sinfonia da Requiem (written to com-memorate the 2600th anniversary of the Japanese Empire) and the Young Person’s Guide to the Orchestra (which really should be liberated from confi nement to children’s concerts and, in addition, be played much more oft en for grown-ups, who can more fully appreciate its high craft and artistic brilliance). Britten wrote a Double Concerto for violin and viola in 1932, a Piano Concerto in 1938, a Violin Concerto in 1939, and the Cello Symphony in 1963, but none of these have a secure foothold with soloists. Any chance to hear them in live per-formance should be prized. His own instincts may lie behind this, for during the period in which the Violin Concerto was being written — the early part of 1939 — Britten was also much taken with some poems by Rim-baud and was frequently diverted from the concerto to set “just one more” French poem. Th e vocal work became Les Illumina-tions, and the Violin Concerto was duly completed, and while the Illuminations is a secure favorite with singers, the concerto is nonetheless a work of high imagination and superlative craft . Th e Violin Concerto was fi rst heard in New York in 1940. Britten and his partner, Peter Pears, had left England in May 1939 thinking they might go only to Canada for a short visit. Th eir journey turned out to be a stay of over three years spent almost entirely in the United States — before Britten felt the inexorable pull of his homeland. Th e Violin Concerto was completed in September 1939 at St.-Jovite in the mountains of Quebec. Soon thereaft er, Britten and Pears were living in Amityville, Long Island, as the guests of Dr. and Mrs. William Mayer, German refugees who actively supported the arts. Th e concerto was fi rst played by the Spanish violinist Antonio Brosa, who was normally resident in London and with whom Britten had toured a few years earlier. Th e con-ductor was John Barbirolli, then, though only briefl y, music direc-tor of the New York Philharmonic. Th is was his introduction to Britten’s music, and he followed this successful fi rst performance with another a year later, that of the Sinfonia da Requiem. As in other violin concertos from the same era — by Walton,

Korngold, Barber, Shostakovich, and others — Britten’s soloist is not let off lightly. Technically-diffi cult features — including multiple stopping, harmonics, playing at the extreme top end of the instrument’s range, and complex bowing patterns — all are required by Britten in abundance. At the same time, the music has a lovely lyrical quality, best illustrated by the soloist’s opening melody, heard throughout the fi rst movement, along with a striking fi gure heard fi rst on the timpani alone, perhaps a tacit tribute to the opening of Beethoven’s Violin Concerto. A contrasting theme is more spiky, but the overall mood is relaxed, especially when, towards the end of the movement, the strings play the opening lyrical theme in the manner of a swooning serenade. Th e middle-movement scherzo has a swift , grotesque character not unlike that of many familiar movements by Shostakovich. Th e contrasting middle section is a nonchalant phrase heard over and over again until the soloist’s wiggling in the stratosphere is taken over by two piccolos while the tuba rises cautiously from the depths — an extraordinary passage. Th e scherzo material returns and abruptly gives way to a solo cadenza, which introduces material from both scherzo and fi rst movement amid the usual violinistic muscle exercises. At the end of the cadenza the soloist steps deliberately up a high scale, and at the point where the last-movement fi nale begins, recalls the lyrical theme from the fi rst movement. Th is should not distract us from the entry of three trombones in unison, who pick up the rising scale and answer it with a scale leading downwards. Th is simple up-and-down contour is the mortar that binds the last movement together. Britten called it a Passacaglia, although it is not a strict example of this form (which would present an unending and repeated baseline, over which other materials are developed). Th e scales up and down are easily followed, while the music moves through a variety of keys and textures. At one point, the music has a martial char-acter, but soon aft erward the mood becomes very solemn and slow, led by the trombones. Th ere is no brilliant and noisy peroration to this work. Alone among violin concertos, Britten’s concerto concludes in a quiet, very moving hymn, and the question of whether it is to end in the major or the minor is left unresolved until the very last moment.

Britten began work on his VIolin Concerto in Novem-ber 1938 in England. He completed the score in September 1939 in St.-Jovite, Quebec, Canada, having crossed the Atlantic in May. The concerto was fi rst per-formed on March 27, 1940, at Carnegie Hall, with the New York Philharmonic under the direction of John Barbirolli and with Antonio Brosa as soloist. Britten made some minor revisions to the score in 1950. This concerto runs about 30 minutes in performance. Britten scored it for 3 fl utes (second and third doubling piccolo), 2 oboes, english horn, 2 clarinets, 2 bassoons, 4 horns, 3 trumpets, 3 trom-bones, tuba, timpani, per-cussion (snare drum, tenor drum, bass drum, cymbals, triangle, bells, whip, glocken-spiel), harp, and strings, plus the solo violin. The Cleveland Orchestra is presenting Britten’s Violin Concerto for the fi rst time with this weekend’s concerts.

Simone LamsmaDutch violinist Simone Lamsma is acclaimed for her technical artistry and heartfelt musicianship. She is making her Cleve-land Orchestra debut with this weekend’s concerts. Ms. Lamsma performs with leading orchestras around the world. Her recent and upcoming engagements include debuts with the Chicago Symphony Orchestra, San Francisco Sympho-ny, Finnish Radio Symphony, Orchestre National de Belgique, Warsaw Philharmonic, and City of Birmingham Symphony, as well as appearances with the Saint Louis Symphony Orchestra and New Zealand Symphony. Her season also features a con-cert tour of China with the Hong Kong Philharmonic under Jaap van Zweden’s direction. As one of Holland’s most active soloists, Simone enjoys frequent collaborations with all major orchestras in the Neth-erlands, including the Rotterdam Philharmonic, Netherlands Radio Philharmonic, Amsterdam Sinfonietta, and the Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra. Simone Lamsma was awarded the national Dutch VSCD Classical Music Prize among a “New Generation of Musicians” in 2010, awarded by the Association of Dutch Th eatres and Concert Halls to artists that have made remarkable and valuable contributions to the Dutch classical music scene. In 2011, she was invited to perform during the Queen’s Day Concert, in the presence of Queen Beatrix of Th e Nether-lands, a concert that was broadcast nationally on Dutch television. Also an active recitalist and chamber musician, Ms. Lamsma has played in re-cital throughout Europe, including performances during the Dvořák Prague Festi-val, and in the Sala Cecilia Series in Rio de Janeiro, with Robert Kulek and Valentina Lisitsa as recital partners. Other chamber music projects have included perform-ances in the Verbier Festival at Schloss Elmau, where she performed with musicians Martin Fröst, Lawrence Power, Denis Kozhukin, and Jakob Koranyi. She has also performed in Amsterdam’s IJ-salon with Emanuel Ax and members of the Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra. Simone Lamsma began studying the violin at the age of fi ve and moved to the United Kingdom at age eleven to study at the Yehudi Menuhin School with Hu Kun and at the Royal Academy of Music (RAM) in London with Maurice Hasson. In 2011, she was made an associate of the RAM, an honor given to those students who have made distinguished contributions within their fi eld. Simone’s debut recital recording, featuring works by Elgar, was released on Naxos. Her second release features violin concertos by Louis Spohr with Sinfonia Finlandia. Ms. Lamsma plays the “ex Braga” Stradivarius, on generous loan to her by an anonymous benefactor.

Suite from Cinderella, Opus 87composed 1941-44
I N T H E M I D - 1 9 3 0 S , aft er fi ft een years away from Russia, spent mostly in France and the United States, Prokofi ev felt a complicated urge to return to his homeland. Just how much he really understood the Soviet system then in place is a vexed question, for even if he knew that the liberal attitude to the arts that characterized the early years of the Revolution was no lon-ger apparent, he could not be blamed for failing to foresee the full extent of Stalin’s repressive rule. By 1936, when Prokofi ev’s family fi nally settled in Moscow, the signs of harsh times ahead were clear, but he kept busy, oft en with music that took him away in spirit and imagination to more tranquil times. Aft er the ballet Romeo and Juliet, which was completed in 1936, he wrote the fi lm score for Eisenstein’s Alexander Nevsky and also a heroic Soviet opera, Semyon Kotko, which failed to please the Soviet authorities. During World War II, he found a balance between three piano sonatas (Nos. 6-8), which were free of explicit relevance or message, and the huge opera War and Peace, which was clearly designed to raise the patriotic spirit of the people at a time of great suff ering. Meanwhile, at the back of his mind was another ballet, like Romeo and Juliet based on an old familiar story. Th is was to be Cinderella, fi rst suggested to him in 1940 by the ballerina Galina Ulanova, who had danced the role of Juliet. A scenario by Nikolai Volkhov introduced a number of picturesque details into Perrault’s original fairytale, not all of which pleased Pro-kofi ev. Th e music was written by 1943, the orchestration done in 1944, and the fi rst performance took place aft er the war in November 1945, at the Bolshoi in Moscow. Meddling hands had infl ated the orchestration, so a process of restoration was required when a new version was presented in Leningrad in April 1946. Prokofi ev saw Cinderella as a simple Russian girl, but he faced the problem that Soviet aesthetics would not allow the scenes at court to be too enviable. It had to appear that she might be better off all the time in her original home, especially since the ugly sisters (named Skinny and Fatty) are buff oonish rather than cruel. Th e Prince is not very princely, but an hon-est child of nature who fi nds his beloved in the fi nal scene. Th e suite being performed at this weekend’s Cleveland

Orchestra concerts, chosen by guest conductor Vladimir Ju-rowski from the score, follows the main action of the story:
Act INo. 1, Introduction — Cinderella’s two main themes are heard,
neither of them very girlish, the fi rst one marked by mel-ancholy.
No. 2, Th e Shawl Dance (Pas de châle)— Th e ugly sisters (one high, one low) quarrel over a shawl. Th eir mother cuts it in two, and they each dance with their own half. Th ey and their parents plod off stage.
No. 3, Cinderella — She is melancholy at fi rst, but her skittish side also shows.
No. 6, Th e Sisters’ New Clothes — A comic scene, as the sisters are mussed and fussed by dressers preparing them for the ball.
No. 7, Th e Dancing Lesson — Next they are taught to dance (Fatty is the bassoon, Skinny the oboe). A pair of violins provide the music. Th e dancing master gets angry when they dance badly.
No. 9, Cinderella Dreams of the Ball — Left alone, Cinderella wishes she was going too, and she imagines a dreamy waltz to dance to.
No. 11, Fairy Godmother Returns — She had earlier appeared in the guise of a beggar woman. Now she appears, ac-companied by Cinderella’s broad theme, and gives back a slipper, which Cinderella had given her earlier.
Act II No. 20, Dance of the Courtiers — Th e dancing at court is for-
mal and rather stiff .No. 26, Mazurka and Entrance of the Prince — A noisy mazur-
ka (not by Chopin!) is being danced when the approach of the Prince is announced by a chorale in the brass. He eventually enters with a heavy step and collapses lump-ishly onto his throne.
No. 29, Cinderella’s Arrival at the Ball — At fi rst she tinkles like a music box, but then her real presence is warmly set before us.
No. 30, Grand Waltz — A longer movement while the whole company dances.
No. 31, Promenade — Th e guests watch Cinderella. Th e horn
About the Music
In my view, the composer,
just as the poet, the sculptor, or the
painter, is duty bound to serve hu-
manity. He must beautify life and
defend it. He must be a citizen fi rst
and foremost, so that his art can
consciously extol human life.

introduces a new theme.No. 36, Duet of the Prince and Cinderella — A classic “Adagio”
for the two principal dancers, with the full orchestra in support. Th e key is a pure, strong C major.
No. 37, Waltz-Coda — Th e cabaletta to the slower dance is a lilt-ing waltz, speeding up for the close, until cut short by . . .
No. 38, Midnight — Th e clockface lights up, showing two min-utes to midnight, and the pendulum swings back and forth. Twelve dwarves leap out as midnight strikes. Everything goes dark. Th e Prince is left holding a slipper.
Act III No. 40, First Galop — Th e Prince sets off in quest of the slipper’s
owner. He meets a beautiful girl (four horns), and unsuc-cessfully tries the slipper on her foot. He is disappointed.
No. 41, Temptation — He comes upon two Spanish beauties (castanets). Th e slipper fi ts neither of them. He fi nds two more (muted violins), still not a fi t. A third pair brings back the castanets.
No. 42, Second Galop — Th e Prince continues on his quest.No. 47, Th e Prince’s Visit — At the home of Cinderella, there is
general excitement at the approach of the prince. Trum-pets announce him and he jumps in through the window. Skinny tries on the slipper, then Fatty, then the stepmother. All in vain! Ethereal chords are heard, caused by the ap-pearance of the matching slipper, dropped from Cinder-ella’s bosom as she bows to the Prince.
No. 48, Th e Prince Finds Cinderella — An “Adagio passionato.” Th e fairy godmother appears (harp).
No. 50, Amoroso — Cinderella’s theme is heard again in a glo-rious peroration for the happy ending.

Prokofi ev composed his ballet score for Cinderella between 1942 and 1945. The original suggestion came from dancer Galina Ulanova; the scenario of scenes was devised by Nikolai Volkhov. The ballet was premiered in November 1945 at the Bolshoi Theater in Moscow. Prokofi ev revised the score (including restoring some of his original orchestrations that had been altered by the Bolshoi’s music staff ) prior to publication in 1946. This suite of music from Cinderella runs about 60 minutes in performance (the entire score runs just over two hours). Prokofi ev scored the ballet for 2 fl utes, pic-colo, 2 oboes, english horn, 2 clarinets, bass clarinet, 2 bassoons, contrabassoon, 4 horns, 3 trumpets, 3 trom-bones, tuba, timpani, percus-sion (side drum, castanets, maracas, wood block), harp, piano, and strings. The Cleveland Orchestra has presented music from Cinderella on a variety of education concerts, and also on two previous weekends of subscription concerts at Severance Hall, in 1977 with guest conductor Andrew Davis and again in 1983 with Vladimir Ashkenazy.

The Cleveland OrchestraCenter for Future AudiencesTHE CLE VE L AND ORCHE STRA’s Center for Future Audiences was estab-lished to fund programs to develop new generations of audiences for Cleveland Orch estra concerts in Northeast Ohio. Th e Center was created in 2010 with a $20 million lead endowment gift from the Maltz Family Foundation. Center-funded programs focus on addressing economic and geographic barriers to attending Cleveland Orch estra concerts at Severance Hall and Blossom Music
Center. Programs include research, introductory off ers, targeted dis-counts, student ticket programs, and integrated use of new technologies. Th e goal is to create one of the young-est audiences of any symphony or-chestra in the country. For additional information about these plans and pro-grams, call us at 216-231-7464.

H A I L E D A S O N E O F the world’s most beautiful concert halls, Severance Hall has been home to Th e Cleveland Or-chestra since its opening on February 5, 1931. Aft er that fi rst concert, a Cleve-land newspaper editorial stated: “We believe that Mr. Severance intended to build a temple to music, and not a temple to wealth; and we believe it is his intention that all music lovers should be welcome there.” John Long Severance (president of the Musical Arts Associa-tion, 1921-1936) and his wife, Elisabeth, donated most of the funds necessary to erect this magnifi cent building. De-signed by Walker & Weeks, its elegant
Georgian exterior was constructed to harmonize with the classical architec-ture of other prominent buildings in the University Circle area. Th e interior of the building refl ects a combination of design styles, including Art Deco, Egyptian Revival, Classicism, and Mod-ernism. An extensive renovation, resto-ration, and expansion of the facility was completed in January 2000. In addition to serving as the home of Th e Cleveland Orchestra for concerts and rehearsals, the building is rented by a wide variety of local organizations and private citi-zens for performances, meetings, and gala events each year.

THE CLEVELAND ORCHESTRAJaap van Zweden, conductorRenaud Capuçon, violin
The 2014 Blossom Music Festival kicks off with an evening of great classics, beginning with Tchaikovsky’s sparkling Capricio Italien. Guest soloist Renaud Capuçon makes his de-but with the masterful rhythms and harmonies of Sibelius’s Violin Concerto — which one critic famously wrote included the light and lumber-ing footsteps of dancing polar bears. Guest conductor Jaap van Zweden concludes the evening with one of the most beloved sym-phonies, Dvořák’s great postcard home “From the New World,” fi lled with the newfound won-der and energy of America in the Golden Age.
