Who: The
Corpus Christi Symphony Orchestra (CCSO), Maestro John Giordano (CCSO music
director and conductor), and Curt Thompson, violinist
What: The CCSO presents a classical concert inspired
by the USA, with music by
Ives/Schuman, Mendelssohn and Dvorak, and featuring American violinist Curt
Thompson
When: Saturday, November 8, 2008 at 8:00 pm
Where: The Performing Arts Center at Texas A&M University - Corpus Christi, 6300 Ocean Drive
Why: CCSO concertmaster Curt Thompson performs one
of the most popular, virtuosic and frequently performed violin concertos of all
time while the CCSO pays homage to the New World with music
inspired by the USA. Dvorak’s New World Symphony was written while
the composer resided in New York from 1892-1895,
and was influenced by American folk and spiritual melodies he became acquainted
with during that time. Variations on “America” is based on the
patriotic hymn “America the Beautiful” and
was written by organ virtuoso Charles Ives in 1892, when he was eighteen, as a
work for organ. In 1963, William Schuman
created the orchestral version. Its
first performance was in 1964, by the New York Philharmonic. For complete program notes, see the Education
and Outreach section of the CCSO’s website at www.ccsymphony.org/program_notes.cfm.
How: Tickets start at $20 and may be purchased by phone (883-6683 or toll
free at 877-286-6683), or on the web (www.ccsymphony.org
). For more information, visit www.ccsymphony.org.
