You are invited to
the Orchestra of Southern Utah’s 2015-2016 concert season, “Rhythm of
Life.” Kicking off our foot-tapping
season on October 8, “Rhythm of the Drum” will spotlight the pulse of
percussion and illustrate the intensity and drive it brings to music. Canyon View High School Bands and Orchestra
will be joining the OSU. Zhong-Hui Dai will
guest conduct the Thunderer’s
March by Sousa.
“Rhythm
of Sibelius” on November 12, will celebrate the life and music of Jean Sibelius
as we approach his 150th birthday in December. Guest Artist Xin-Wen Fu will perform, and
several of Sibelius’s most iconic pieces will be presented.
On December 13 and 14, the OSU
will perform Handel’s Messiah with
Jackie Riddle-Jackson as the newly appointed Chorale Director. This year’s
performances will be particularly special as we look forward to and celebrate
the 75th anniversary of Messiah in Cedar City. As in past years, tickets will be
provided free of charge by the generosity of our sponsors The State Bank of
Southern Utah and The Leavitt Group.
On
February 13, the “Aloha!” Children’s Jubilee will premiere a symphony by local
composer Jacob Lee, and the concert will include Polynesian vocalists and
dancers. Before and after the music,
activities relating to science, art, and music will be made available. It will be a perfect taste of the tropics for
the entire family!
On February 25,
“Rhythm of the Sea” will take us on a nautical adventure, reprising the pieces
from the Jubilee and adding Rimsky Korsakov’s epic Scheherazade.
Concluding the
season on April 21, “Rhythm of Dance” will sweep us through the years and
around the world as we listen to dance tunes including a Shostakovich Waltz, a Bach Gavotte, and a Chinese Folk Dance. All concerts are held in the Heritage Center and begin at 7:30
in the evening (with the exception of the Jubilee which will begin at 2:00 in
the afternoon). We look forward to seeing you
there!
