BVSO presents Mozart, Tchaikovsky
by Lee Schexnaider
with Brian Frederick
Small winds circulate
through the room. They
curl up inside the ear and
soothe the mind and the
soul. The sounds grow
and the air becomes thick
with complex melodies.
The notes build until they
seem to explode from the
instruments of the Brazos
Valley Symphony
Orchestra.
The orchestra will be
performing the music of
Tchaikovsky and Mozart
in Rudder Auditorium
Thursday at 8 p.m. The
program will include
Tchaikovsky’s fifth
symphony and Mozart’s
“Symphonia
Concertante” for flute,
oboe, bassoon and horn.
The symphony will also
perform “Overture Axur
Re D’Ormus” by Antonio
Salieri.
Tchaikovsky wrote his
Fifth Symphony in 1888
while resting at his
country estate. It was his
most ambitious
undertaking since his
Fourth Symphony,
written eleven years
earlier. He had many
doubts about the quality
of the work, but its
enthusiastic reception by
audiences and critics
overcame them, and it
remains a favorite of
audiences today.
Wendy Dackson,
executive director for the
symphony, says the 60-to
70-member orchestra
performs five times a year,
with all volunteer
membership.
Theodore Kim, a junior
aerospace engineer who
has played with the
orchestra for seven years,
says the orchestra keeps
improving.
“Its been getting better
every year,” he said.
“People are improving
and we’re getting better as
a group. ”
Senior civil engineering
major Melanie Sattler says
that during her one and a
half years with the
orchestra she has been
surprised at the quality of
the community orchestra.
She also said the
organization is good
because it allows students
to interact with people
outside the University.
“It’s a neat approach
for university students to
meet people in the
community, ” she said.
Sattler said she did not
participate in the
orchestra this semester
but she enjoyed her time
with it.
“I miss it a whole lot,”
she said.
Tickets for Thursday’s
performance will be on
sale at the door for Texas
A&M students for $5.
Graduating seniors and
their guests will receive a
30 percent discount. Prior
to the performance,
tickets will be on sale at
the MSC Box Office and
are $12 for adults, $10 for
students and senior
citizens and $8 for
children.
