Salem – Rachmaninoff’s Rhapsody on a Theme of Paganini
May 10, 2024 7:30 PM
A rollercoaster of pianistic flourishes, Rachmaninoff’s ravishing rhapsody is given a tour-de- force performance by soloist Simon Trpčeski. Dvořák’s distinctly Bohemian style shines in his brooding, mysterious Seventh Symphony, in which the composer gives voice to personal grief and the struggles of his nation.

AWARD
In partnership with the Salem-Keizer School District, the Oregon
Symphony in Salem has been recognizing outstanding music
educators since 1990. The process begins with the nomination of
candidates from any area of public classroom music education in the
Salem-Keizer School District, including orchestra, band, and choir.
Committee members from the Salem Advisory Committee observe
the teachers in their classroom setting and select the winner and
runners-up.
