The sounds of Steinmetz

Steinmetz Symposium is filled with the creative and scholarly work of students, and this includes their music. Come hear for yourself.

On Friday, May 7, at 8 p.m. in the Memorial Chapel, the Steinmetz Concert will feature the talents of two student soloists.

Victor Klimash conducts the Union College and Community Orchestra.

Rachel Gray ’10 will serve as soloist in the Concerto for Oboe and Orchestra in D by the Baroque composer Tomasso Albinoni, and Elana Korn ’12 will be featured in the Concerto for Contrabass and Orchestra by Serge Koussevitsky.

Both soloists are principal players in the Union College and Community Orchestra, conducted by Professor Victor Klimash of the Music Department.

The orchestra also will play an Overture by Ludwig van Beethoven, Die Geschoepfe des Prometheus and two Dances from Christoph Willibald Gluck’s opera, Orfeo.

An added feature will be a performance of The Camerata Singers, a student Chamber Choir. They will sing two Renaissance motets: Exultate Deo by Alessandro Scarlatti and Ego sum panis vivus by Giovanni  Pierluigi da Palestrina.

The concert is free and open to the public.
