SUMMARY:Falmouth Chamber Players Orchestra Spring Concerts
DESCRIPTION:The Falmouth Chamber Players Orchestra\, under the direction of conductor Thomas Kociela\, will present “Nordic Legends & Mozart’s Masterpiece” on Saturday\, March 28\, at 3 PM\, and Sunday\, March 29\, at 3 PM\, at Morse Pond School Auditorium\, 323 Jones Road\, in Falmouth. \nThomas G. Kociela\, FCPO conductor for the 2025-2026 season\, is also music director of the Rhode Island College Symphony Orchestra and the Parkway Concert Orchestra (Norwood\, MA)\, as well as the Resident Multi-Camera Video Director at Symphony Hall in Boston.  For more information visit: thomaskociela.com \nThe program includes Sibelius’s Karelia Overture\, Grieg’s Symphonic Dances\, and Mozart’s Clarinet Concerto\, performed by soloist Sangwon Lee. \nJean Sibelius (1865-1957) was commissioned by the Viithat Students’ Association to compose incidental music for an historical pageant celebrating the history and culture of the Karelia region\, the source of much of Finland’s mythology and folk music tradition. Karelia sought to retain its own culture at a time when the Russification of Finland aimed to abolish its cultural heritage. \nIn Karelia Music (1893)\, one of Sibelius’s early compositions\, he incorporates the character of local folk music to portray events in the area’s history. The Overture includes elements of its eight tableaus\, including energetic marches\, moments of quiet reflection\, concluding with an exhilarating march. As one reviewer wrote\, the music has “an appealing dignified feel\, as of an army marching joyfully from the fields of victory\, accompanied by birdsong and sunlight.” \nLike Sibelius\, Edvard Grieg (1843-1907) is known for his nationalistic music\, music which bolstered the national identity of his country\, Norway. Sibelius based his Symphonic Dances on folk tunes collected by Ludvig M. Lindemann (1812-1887) and composed them for piano four hands\, a popular genre at the time. They were orchestrated by Hans Sitt. \nThe first and second dances are hallings: vigorous\, acrobatic Norwegian mountain dances that begin quietly and gradually build to a hypnotic intensity. The first is quite spirited\, the second more relaxed\, with a gentle theme provided by oboe\, harp\, and pizzicato strings. The third dance is a lively spring dance melody. The finale draws from an old mountain ballad\, a wedding song\, and a dramatic heroic march. \n“The Symphonic Dances are truly delightful to perform\,” said Melanie Hayn\, FCPO president and principal oboe\, “with melodies passed between woodwind players and with the strings. The oboe part in this work is particularly fun—I feel as if I’m dancing among the sections of the orchestra during some passages.” \nWolfgang Amadeus Mozart (1756-1791) composed his Clarinet Concerto for virtuoso clarinetist Anton Stadler to be performed on basset clarinet\, completing it just a few months before his death. The basset clarinet\, co-invented by Stadler\, could play a few notes lower than the standard clarinet. After Mozart’s death\, the low notes were transposed to be played on the standard clarinet\, and the original basset clarinet score was lost. \nThe concerto is considered one of Mozart’s greatest works. It is a piece of great emotional depth\, conveying peace\, simplicity\, and contentment\, making good use of the full range of the clarinet and the virtuosity of the player. The second movement Adagio\, in particular\, has been described as “achingly beautiful\,” lyrical\, and serene\, with a melancholic thoughtfulness\, while the third movement offers a cheerful and delightful rondo. \nSoloist Sangwon Lee notes that the concerto was written at a difficult point in Mozart’s life. He was beset by poor health and growing debt. “The music\, however\, is uplifting\,” Lee said\, with hints of somber tone.” \n“Like many clarinetists\,” Lee said\, “I have a complicated relationship with the concerto. It’s a piece we have been exposed to as young\, inexperienced players. It’s a piece that has been on virtually every audition we have taken. It’s the piece in the clarinet repertoire. There are times I cherished practicing it. There are times I loathed practicing it. But we always come back to it\, a lot of times not by choice\, and it ‘hits different’ as time goes on\, and we discover something new every time. We love it!” \nSangwon Lee joined the Hartford Symphony as Principal Clarinet in 2023. He has performed with orchestras all over New England\, appearing as guest principal clarinetist in the Boston Pops Orchestra\, New Bedford Symphony\, Dartmouth Symphony\, and others. As a chamber musician\, Sangwon has shared the stage with the late Peter Serkin—performing the Beethoven and the Mozart Quintets for Piano with Winds in multiple performances in 2018.  \nIn addition to performing\, Sangwon is passionate about music education. He has coached woodwind sectionals at Yale University\, Boston Youth Symphony Orchestra\, Boston Latin School\, and elsewhere. He taught clarinet and saxophone at the summer Bard Music Camp and at Bard College at Simon’s Rock in Great Barrington\, MA. \nA donation at the door of $20 for adults and $5 for young professionals is suggested\, with free admission for students. Tickets are available only at the door. For more information\, visit falmouthchamberplayers.org. \nThe FCPO is funded in part by the Arts Foundation of Cape Cod\, the Falmouth Cultural Council\, the Mass Cultural Council\, the Falmouth Fund of the Cape Cod Foundation\, Cape Cod Melody Tent\, and the Woods Hole Foundation.

SUMMARY:Woods Hole Film Festival: A Cherry Pie Christmas
DESCRIPTION:Woods Hole Film Festival presents its Dinner & A Movie series on Saturday\, December 6\, with the feature documentary VIVA VERDI! by Yvonne Russo. \nThe screening takes place at 7 PM at Redfield Auditorium\, 45 Water Street\, Woods Hole. Doors open at 6:30 PM. Tickets are $18\, $12 for members and $10 student/military. \nVIVA VERDI! feature documentary by Yvonne Russo\, USA\, 77 mins.\, 2025\, English and Italian \nIn 1896\, famed composer Guiseppe Verdi built a unique retirement home\, Casa Verdi\, in Milan\, Italy for musicians to live out their lives in retirement. VIVA VERDI! is an intimate glimpse into the lives of the celebrated opera singers and musicians currently living out their ‘third act’ while mentoring international music students who live among them at Casa Verdi. \nFrom these ‘guests’ of Verdi\, ages 77 to 107\, comprised of international opera singers\, ballet dancers\, musicians\, conductors and composers\, we hear an extraordinary array of personal and professional stories filled with music\, magic and passion\, and ultimately learn why Verdi called this remarkable home his “best work. \nWith “little altars” to Verdi in every corner\, and music and memories in every room\, the cross-generational mixing of young and old\, held together by an implacable commitment and relentless passion for music\, creates a highly charged atmosphere where the human spirit transcends both time and space. As stories of romance\, tragedy and triumph abound from these living treasures\, it’s easy to see Verdi’s vision thriving – a life-affirming reminder of how music moves us at a fundamental level; how nurturing artistic expression can be life- enhancing and nourishing to the spirit at any age; and how one distinctive retirement home has reclaimed and enriched thousands of artists’ lives. \nAward-winning filmmaker Yvonne Russo is the director of VIVA VERDI! She is currently serving as director/producer of RING OF FIRE: The Life of Annie Mae Aquash\, a true-crime docuseries currently in production\, produced by Amy Kaufman and Caroline Waterlow with Jake Gyllenhaal’s\, Nine Stories. Most recently\, she directed\, produced and wrote the PBS animated short\, MINNIE’S WAR BONNET. A producer on KELLY’S BAR\, an independent feature with Casey Affleck’s Sea Change Media\, Russo worked for 15 years on a diverse slate of domestic and international television and film projects for such companies as HBO\, National Geographic Channel\, Discovery/TLC\, and the CBS/Smithsonian Channel.

SUMMARY:Pernambuco Chamber Ensemble Presents “French Impressions”
DESCRIPTION:The Pernambuco Chamber Ensemble returns to West Falmouth Library for a performance on Sunday\, November 23rd at 3pm. Tickets are $30. Registration is  required online. \nThe members of the Ensemble are Shirie Leng\, violin; Jessica Baum\, viola; Judith Glixon\, cello; Daniel Goodman\, piano; Michael Goldring\, double bass & voice. \nThe ensemble writes: “French Impressions is our 2025 Fall concert primarily featuring pieces by French composers. The concert also includes an original composition by our cellist\, Judith Glixon. Many of the pieces are in the shimmering French Impressionist style of Debussy\, Ravel and Faure. \n“We have included two audience favorites from the period – an arrangement of Debussy’s Clair de Lune for viola and piano\, and of Faure’s Pavane for piano trio. Also on the program are an early French trio sonata by Boismortier and a contrasting string trio by Russian composer Sergey Taneyev. The piano at the West Falmouth Library was built in the late 19th century. Early pianos have a different sound than modern ones\, so French Impressionist music performed on the instrument sounds like what the composers would have heard in their day.” \nThe ensemble is named Pernambuco because of their connections to pernambuco wood and their concern for the environment. Pernambuco has been used in the making of bows for over 250 years\, enhancing the performance of stringed music for generations. Today\, pernambuco is increasingly rare and endangered in many areas of its native habitat. By supporting their performances you join the ensemble on their mission to raise awareness and funds for environmental causes.

SUMMARY:Falmouth Chamber Players Orchestra Fall concerts
DESCRIPTION:The Falmouth Chamber Players Orchestra\, under the direction of conductor Thomas Kociela\, will present its Fall Concerts\, titled “Charm\, Elegance\, and Wit\,” on Saturday\, November 1\, at 3 PM\, and Sunday\, November 2\, at 3 PM\, at Morse Pond School Auditorium\, 323 Jones Road\, in Falmouth. \nThe program includes the Overture to L’italiana in Algeri by Rossini\, Mozart’s Violin Concerto No. 3 featuring soloist Gigi Turgeon\, and Haydn’s Symphony No. 101\, “The Clock.” \n“We are pleased to welcome back Thomas Kociela as our conductor for this season\,” said Melanie Hayn\, president of the orchestra. Thomas G. Kociela\, FCPO conductor for the 2025-2026 season\, is also music director of the Rhode Island College Symphony Orchestra and the Parkway Concert Orchestra (Norwood\, MA). \nOf the program\, Kociela says\, “The program title\, ‘Charm\, Elegance and Wit\,’ says it all. Rossini brings the charm\, drawing listeners in with his unmistakable style and spirited energy. Next\, Mozart’s elegant Violin Concerto No. 3 is performed by our concertmaster Gigi Turgeon\, whose artistry brings to life Mozart’s blend of grace\, expressive lyricism\, and precise clarity. And Haydn\, of course\, can’t resist showing off his wit. Through playful craftsmanship\, Haydn continually delights\, setting up expectations and then turning them upside down in the most surprising way. Together\, these works create a concert experience that radiates pure joy!” \nGioachino Rossini (1792-1813) is known for his sparkling\, witty\, and lively overtures\, designed to entertain and cheer an audience\, and his Overture to L’italiana in Algeri (The Italian Girl in Algiers) is one of his best. The opera\, completed in less than a month\, tells the tale of a Turkish Bey in Algiers who is bored by his harem and orders his captain to find him an Italian girl to liven things up. The overture begins with calm and stately pizzicatos from the strings and a gentle oboe solo\, followed by a sudden fortissimo outburst from the whole orchestra\, some delightful woodwind solos\, and several vibrant “Rossini crescendos\,” setting the stage for the zany and implausible tale of love and intrigue\, which follows. \nMozart presented his five violin concertos\, composed between 1773-1775\, during his concertizing tour between 1777-1779. These concertos perfectly promoted his talents as a skillful composer as well as a masterful violinist. Concerto No.3 in G major demonstrates a variety of his best qualities. \nSoloist Guiomar (Gigi) Turgeon describes the concerto: “The first movement is delightfully cheerful and energetic. The second movement is a true Adagio (rarely used by Mozart) which includes the gentle tones of muted strings\, pulsating rhythms\, plucked bassi and delicate flutes to create a beautiful and serene color. The third movement displays Mozart’s quirky humor. Throughout his rustic theme\, he inserts the Austrian “Strassburger” tune which without a doubt displays his sentimental ties to his Salzburg home. \n“Within this single composition\, Mozart satisfies with buoyant energy\, surprising color and whimsical flare making this an audience favorite.” \n“I’m excited to be working with Gigi as our soloist for this concert\,” said Hayn. “Her playing is so delicate and expressive; it’s a real inspiration to the players.” \nA third-generation musician\, Ms. Turgeon began her violin studies at the age of three and worked under many prominent violin masters. She has performed in orchestras led by Leonard Bernstein\, Christopher Hogwood\, Grant Llewellyn\, Seizi Ozawa\, and John Williams. She is also concertmaster for the Dedham Choral Society and performs regularly with many Boston ensembles and founder and director of the Clerici Chamber Music Series. \nJoseph Haydn (1732-1809) was known as the “Father of the Symphony” for his role in defining the classical musical style. He achieved worldwide fame during his lifetime\, writing a total of 104 symphonies. No. 101 is part of a group of twelve “London symphonies\,” so-called because they were commissioned to be performed in that city. Composed during the winter of 1793-1794 in Vienna\, and premiered to in London in March of 1794\, No. 101 is known as the “Clock” symphony because of the “tick-tock” rhythm created by the pizzicato lower strings and staccato bassoons in the second movement. Immensely popular at its premiere\, the symphony is still regarded as one of the world’s greatest symphonies. It shimmers with energy\, intensity\, wit\, and charm. \nA donation at the door of $20 for adults and $5 for young professionals is suggested\, with free admission for students. Tickets are available only at the door. For more information\, visit falmouthchamberplayers.org. \nThe FCPO is funded in part by the Arts Foundation of Cape Cod\, the Falmouth Cultural Council\, the Mass Cultural Council\, the Cape Cod Melody Tent\, and the Woods Hole Foundation.
