TICKETS ARE STILL AVAILABLE AND CAN BE PURCHASED AT THE DOOR. Box office opens 30 minutes prior to the concert. Why have on-line sales ended? We end on-line sales a little early since most of our volunteers are orchestra members. This gives us time to prep the tickets, fold the programs, and bake the sweets for the refreshments table. We look forward to seeing you at the concert!

Rainier Symphony - Celestial Voices
We're very pleased to be able to reschedule one of the selections from our snow-cancelled February concerts:  our principal oboist Michael Melnick will step out of the wind section to solo on Vaughan-Williams' pastoral Oboe Concerto in A minor.  We will also perform two movements from Claude Debussy's Nocturnes, and Gustav Holst's most famous work, The Planets. This music leaves this world on an exploration of ethereal colors, textures, images, and voices.

More about the concert:

The first half of this concert features the music of Impressionist composer Claude Debussy. His piece Nocturnes does not fall into the traditional style or form of a nocturne, music for night or evening. Rather, his use of the word was to evoke imagery associated with a particular time of day, and the specific lighting often experienced at that time. His use of orchestral instruments to create a tone-color palette that travels from dark to light, cold to warm, calm to explosive, is a dramatic exercise in showcasing the instruments and voices of the orchestra.

We will also perform the Ralph Vaughan Williams' Oboe Concerto in A minor, which will feature our own principal oboist, Michael Melnick. This concerto is a technical marathon for the string players, which creates a dramatic tone palette for the soloist to draw colors and textures upon.

The second half of this concert will feature Gustav Holst's dramatic and titanic work The Planets. Scored for a massive orchestra, Holst composed music that was meant to depict the character and influence each planet had on the psyche, not the Roman mythological deities which share the planets' names. While some of these are correlated, Holst uses the character of the music to depict the emotions associated with these planets, with the powerful Mars being the most famous. The movements within this work have become some of the most famous and beloved concert pieces, and the massive sound of the orchestra creates an ethereal exploration in sound that will close out our Classics cycles for the 2018-19 season.

In the event of unforeseen circumstances, programs and artists may change without notice.
