Colby Symphony Orchestra, Jinwook Park, director
Our final concerts of the season will be celebratory events, with Jonathan Hallstrom, conductor of the Colby Orchestra from 1984 to 2012, making a farewell guest appearance after 38 years of service at Colby College, conducting Pelléas et Mélisande Suite by Gabriel Fauré. The concert will also feature the winner of the 2022 Annual Concerto Competition, Ashley Ren ’24, performing the third movement from Mendelssohn’s Violin Concerto in E Minor. The program will conclude with Beethoven’s Egmont Overture and with two of G.F. Handel’s triumphant Coronation Anthems, “Zadok, the Priest” and “The King Shall Rejoice,” with the combined forces of Choirs at Colby and the CSO, conducted by Director of Choral and Vocal Activities, Eric Christopher Perry. (Due to a rise in COVID cases on the Colby campus, the choral portion of this concert has been canceled.)
