| ARTISTIC PROJECTS AND PARTNERSHIPS | Premieres and Commissions The SPCO commissioned and premiered six new pieces in the 2021-22 season. With a commitment to commissioning and programming works by composers who have been historically underrepresented in orchestra repertoire, four pieces premiered in the 2021-22 season were commissioned from composers of color and women. In October, the orchestra gave the world premiere of Minnesota-born composer Sky Macklay's Disassemblage and the 4 Midwest premiere of Jessie Montgomery's Shift, Change Turn. In April, the SPCO gave the world premiere of a new orchestration of Sergei Prokofiev's Violin Sonata No. 1, orchestrated by former Artistic Partner Stephen Prutsman, with Concertmaster Steven Copes as violin soloist. The following week, the orchestra gave the world premiere of SPCO Principal Horn James Ferree's arrangement of Johann Sebastian Bach's Goldberg Variations for Chamber Orchestra. The Goldberg Variations were originally conceived for solo keyboard, and Ferree's arrangement for orchestra highlighted the artistry of each individual SPCO musician as soloists and chamber musicians. In May, the orchestra gave the world premiere of Cindy Cox's Dreaming a world's edge, which was commissioned by the League of American Orchestras with the generous support of the Virginia B. Toulmin Foundation. In its season finale performances in June, the SPCO presented the world premiere of composer, singer and keyboardist PaviElle French's Sands of Time, a work that celebrates musical manifestations of love in all its forms. This was French's second collaboration with the SPCO, and the piece was commissioned for the SPCO by community supporters Bill and Susan Sands in collaboration with the American Composers Forum. In addition to premiering six newly commissioned works, the SPCO also gave the first performances to in-person audiences of four works commissioned and premiered via livestream in the 2020-21 season, all of which were written by women or composers of color. These works include Tyson Davis' Tableau No. X for Solo Trumpet, Chen Yi's Elegy for Solo Oboe, Brent Michael Davids' Taptonahana for Solo Flute and Michi Wiancko's Island in the Sky for Solo Clarinet. New and Returning Artistic Partners After a hiatus during the 2020-21 season due to the pandemic, the SPCO welcomed its Artistic Partners back to perform with the orchestra in the 2021-22 season. The organization also announced the appointments of South African cellist, singer and composer Abel Selaocoe and internationally renowned German violist Tabea Zimmermann as its newest Artistic Partners. Abel Selaocoe made his SPCO debut in the 2021-22 season with a weekend of programs exploring his musical roots and the parallel worlds of folk music from the African continent and the European classical tradition. Equally at home improvising on African folk songs and Baroque works from the 1700s, Selaocoe took audiences on a musical journey combining virtuosic performance with improvisation, singing and body percussion, seamlessly moving between a plethora of styles and traditions. A video of this debut performance is available for free on-demand streaming in the SPCO Concert Library. Tabea Zimmermann made her SPCO debut in the 2019-20 season. Her warm and robust sound was on display as she performed her own arrangement of Schumann Cello Concerto for viola. 5. The program concluded with Beethoven's masterful First Symphony with Zimmermann leading the orchestra from within the viola section a first for the SPCO. An audio recording of this performance is available for free on-demand streaming in the SPCO Concert Library, with audio provided by YourClassical MPR. Recording of Mozart Piano Concertos with Jeremy Denk At the beginning of the 2021-22 season, Nonesuch Records released a new recording of piano concertos by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart performed by the SPCO and Artistic Partner Jeremy Denk. Recorded live at the Ordway Concert Hall in January 2018, the new album includes performances of Mozart's Piano Concertos No. 25 in C Major and No. 20 in D minor, as well as his Rondo in A minor. The recording was met with critical acclaim. Celebrating the Capri The SPCO celebrated 13 years of partnership with the Capri in North Minneapolis in the 2021-22 season, and the orchestra performed at the Capri's grand reopening in October 2021 after the historic theater, originally built in 1927, closed to undergo a renovation and expansion. The SPCO also resumed its regular concert series and Free Family Music programs at the Capri. Bravo! Vail Music Festival After joining violinist and former SPCO Artistic Partner Joshua Bell for performances at the Bravo! Vail Music Festival in June 2021, the SPCO returned to Vail in 2022, opening the Bravo! Vail 2022 season in three performances on June 23, 25 and 26. The SPCO joined the Dallas Symphony Orchestra, The Philadelphia Orchestra and New York Philharmonic as one of four orchestras in residence during the festival. Highlights of the three SPCO programs included the world premiere of a piano concerto by Chris Rogerson, performed by Anne-Marie McDermott, which was commissioned by Bravo! Vail in celebration of McDermott's 10th anniversary as artistic director. Additionally, the SPCO gave the Bravo! Vail premiere of Xavier Foley's For Justice and Peace and performed a new orchestral arrangement of Johann Sebastian Bach's Goldberg Variations by SPCO Principal Horn James Ferree. One of the three festival performances is available for free on-demand streaming in the SPCO Concert Library. |
