Welcome to our 6th Season!
NEWS: 4/15/13 - The Burlington Chamber Orchestra Announces the winner of its 2013 Young Artist Solo Competition.
The Burlington Chamber Orchestra is excited to present its 6th season beginning in October, 2012 with a collaborative performance under the auspices of the UVM Lane Series with the masterful artistry of guest clarinet soloist Romie de Guise-Langlois under the direction of guest conductor Sean Newhouse, Assistant Conductor of the Boston Symphony. The January, 2013 concert will bring music of Gounod, Mozart and Berwald. World-renowned violinist Soovin Kim returns in March for two "Orpheus" style concerts with violist Mary SangHyun Yong featuring the music of Mozart, Strauss, Sibelius and Grieg. Then in May, the orchestra turns its focus to the future of chamber music with a newly commissioned work by a young Vermont composer, and a concerto performed by this year's winner of the Young Artist Solo Competition, and topping off everything with a symphony by Haydn. You won't want to miss a note!
Once again, the Burlington Chamber Orchestra promises to deliver creative programming of the highest orchestral quality throughout the season.
Since its inception in 2007, the orchestra has delighted audiences with great performances featuring Vermont’s top artists, young musicians, regional and international soloists. It has presented a balance of traditional genres as well as new orchestral works. This season, the orchestra will continue this tradition.
As an organization we continue to strengthen our connections with the community through several programs and by maintaining affordable ticket prices for families and patrons. BCO musicians will continue music development efforts for kids by visiting local schools and offering the kids and their parents’ free tickets to each concert through the music for minors program. Last season over 80 free tickets were offered. In addition, the BCO showcases the area’s top young musician at the final concert of the season, as part of the young artist competition. Most recently, the friend’s advisory committee has been established to help with the development of these programs and to find new ways to sustain the BCO efforts to share our love of orchestral music.
On behalf of the musicians and the (BCO) executive board, we want to thank our sponsors, donors, and volunteers, for your continued support of this professional community-based orchestra.
Sincerely,
John Vickery,
Burlington Chamber Orchestra Board President
