Eastern Sierra Chamber Orchestra Concerts Slated

April 28, 2009

Brian SchuldtCerro Coso College will present two free concerts of the Eastern Sierra Chamber Orchestra, Friday, May 1, 2009, 7:30 PM at St. Joseph’s Church in Mammoth Lakes, and Saturday, May 2, 7:30 PM at Cerro Coso College in Bishop.  The Felici Trio’s Brian Schuldt leads the orchestra in works by Mendelssohn, Vivaldi, Cimarosa and Haydn.
 
The program begins with Vivaldi’s beloved “Concerto for Two Violins in A Minor”, with orchestra members Lo Lyness and Barb Cote as soloists.  The work features Vivaldi’s characteristic fluid string writing and gift for ear-catching tunes.
 
In Cimarosa’s “Concerto for Oboe”, experience Italian bel canto writing at its most beautiful.  John Wehausen solos in this charming and humorous work, inspired by the dynamic writing style of Italian opera.
 
Jean Johnson is the featured soloist in Haydn’s “Concerto for Cello no. 1”, one of the true early masterpieces written for solo cello and orchestra. 
 
The finale is Mendelssohn’s “Hebrides Overture”, also known as “Fingal’s Cave”.  The work was inspired by the cave (reminiscent of Devil’s Postpile in its structure), which greatly impressed Mendelssohn on his travels through the British Isles.  This orchestra showpiece relies on the full forces of the ESCO, which is comprised of players from June Lake to Ridgecrest.
 
The chamber orchestra was founded in 1985 and meets weekly, alternating at Cerro Coso College in Mammoth and Bishop.  Brian Schuldt became its director in 2002.  Brian has a master’s degree in cello performance from Indiana University and is a member of the Felici Trio, who has performed over 350 critically-acclaimed concerts on three continents.
