The Cleveland Orchestra Announces 101st Season For 2018-2019

As the celebrations, performances, and successes of The Cleveland Orchestra's Centennial Season continue toward its conclusion this spring, the Orchestra has announced details of its 101st season for 2018-2019. Aspects of the celebratory spirit continues - with a 100th Birthday concert in July for the Cleveland community and Centennial Gala in September. The new season also extends the dedicated week-to-week work, creativity, and artistry required to continue being one of the world's best orchestras year after year.

In 1918, The Cleveland Orchestra was founded by impresario Adella Prentiss Hughes and the Musical Arts Association with the first concert on December 11 at Cleveland's Grays Armory with Music Director Nikolai Sokoloff conducting. December 11, 2018 marks the 100th birthday of The Cleveland Orchestra.

Serving the ensemble's hometown community with a season-long series of concerts at Severance Hall remains central to the Orchestra's activities. The 2018-19 season offers a variety of programs, musical works, and styles, while continuing areas of focus for which The Cleveland Orchestra and its music director, Franz Welser-Möst, have been praised.

"As we embark on our Second Century, 2018-2019 can perhaps be thought of as a season of contrasts and continuing exploration," said André Gremillet, Executive Director. "Works by new composers, and discovering a fresh take on standard favorites. New artists, and returning friends. Continuing to share the power of music and The Cleveland Orchestra's passion for music with our great hometown community, and our ongoing commitment to bring more music to more people."

"As The Cleveland Orchestra begins its Second Century, the dedication and incredible focus of these musicians remains unmatched," said Music Director Franz Welser-Möst. "Each year, we are on a journey, striving for excellence and to present extraordinary musical experiences. The Centennial is just one more step forward. Every season I focus on composers and programs that extend and expand the Orchestra's artistic quality and which, in turn, make for a rich experience for our great Cleveland audiences. In 2018-19 this musical journey, in addition to some big and well-known works such as Mahler's Second Symphony, features several lesser-known pieces, including Prokofiev's Symphony Nos. 1 and 3, Bartók's Piano Concertos Nos. 2 and 3, Schubert's Mass No. 6, and Abrahamsen's Left Alone (for piano left hand and orchestra), among other great works.

I am particularly excited by the works by Schubert and Prokofiev this coming season. They represent some of these great composer's best music, which is too often neglected and is ready for re-discovery. Schubert's music is a perfect fit for the elegance of this Orchestra and his Mass is a masterpiece from his last years - often considered to be as beautiful as his great late song cycle Die Winterreise or the final string quartets. We even have the opportunity to compare these directly, with the presentation at that same time in the season of Winterreise, sung by baritone Simon Keenlyside. The Schubert Mass, paired with Bartók's Piano Concerto No. 3, presents an extraordinary musical testament of two composers' reflections on their own mortality.

The season also features musical discoveries with a deeper look at living composers. Hans Abrahamsen's "Left, alone," for instance, written for piano left hand and orchestra, is a great example of the kind of interesting and dynamic new music being written today. After experiencing the beauty and impact of his stunning "Let Me Tell You," which we performed with Barbara Hannigan two seasons back, I feel compelled to program more of Abrahamsen's work.

We have a sophisticated audience in Cleveland. I always want to bring to them music that may have been neglected, especially so we can discover something new together."

Strauss's Opera Ariadne Auf Naxos, Made-for-Cleveland Production
Franz Welser-Möst and The Cleveland Orchestra continue an ongoing commitment to present opera at Severance Hall with a made-for-Cleveland production of Richard Strauss's Ariadne Auf Naxos which is being performed for the first time in the Orchestra's history January 13, 17 and 19. In his years as music director, Welser-Möst has led The Cleveland Orchestra in performances of many orchestral works by Richard Strauss, as well as presentations of four other Strauss operas: Elektra (2004), Der Rosenkavalier (2007), Salome (2012), and Daphne (2015).

About the story of Ariadne Auf Naxos
Premiered in its final version in 1916, the opera features a play within a play. It tells of an evening of theatrical presentations that compete for attention - and which comment on both the audiences' and performers' desires for attention and understanding. Two theatrical companies have been hired to entertain guests. One is a bawdy comedic troupe, the other a serious opera company. Due to a change of plans, the two companies are told to present their performances simultaneously, bringing conflict and humor - and unexpected understanding - to a what was originally intended to be simply entertaining and dramatic.

This original staged production for Severance Hall will be directed by Frederic Wake-Walker, who is making his Cleveland Orchestra debut. The creative team also includes Alex Nichols (Lighting, Projection, and Set Design), Dominic Robertson (Video Content Designer), Lottie Bowater (Director of Photography), and Jason Southgate (Costume Design). The cast of singers features soprano Tamara Wilson (Ariadne/Diva) who makes her Severance Hall debut, tenor Andreas Schager (Bacchus), mezzo-soprano Kate Lindsey (Composer), and soprano Daniela Fally (Zerbinetta) who also makes her Cleveland Orchestra debut.

Franz Welser-Möst on Ariadne Auf Naxos, "After Tristan and Isolde in the current season, our next opera, Ariadne auf Naxos, is part of a series of operas which I have programmed to expand and challenge the Orchestra as they continue to grow artistically," said Franz Welser-Möst. "Richard Strauss's Ariadne auf Naxos does exactly this. Instead of a very large Wagnerian orchestra, Ariadne is scored for a chamber group of 35 musicians. After the dark seriousness of Wagner, Ariadne features comic elements. It is a wonderful opera, funny and serious at the same time, with beautiful music. In essence, it is a contest between classical art and comedy. There is a play within the play, or really an opera within an opera. The similarities and contrasts between what is happening and what the characters want to be happening are very telling."

"I really love this opera," Welser-Möst continues, "and I am eager to hear the musicians of The Cleveland Orchestra interpret this music. Strauss's writing includes marvelous solos - for flute and oboe and cello, for instance - that will be truly vibrant and meaningful when played by the principal players in Cleveland. The music is unbelievably beautiful, so much so that some passages literally bring me to tears. I have always admired and enjoyed Strauss's musical genius. As time passes, I find that I appreciate his approach to music-making more and more. This opera spans, as the saying goes, 'from the sublime to the ridiculous - from beauty to humor.' And audiences will love it."

Commissions, Premieres and Works by Living Composers in 2018-19
The Cleveland Orchestra continues its commitment to new works to expand and extend the repertoire with the presentation of a world premiere commission and four United States premieres of works by living composers in 2018-2019: Hans Abrahamsen, Matthias Pintscher, Bernd Richard Deutsch, and Detlev Glanert. The season also features ten works performed for the first time by The Cleveland Orchestra, four of which are by living composers.

World Premiere by Jeffrey Rathbun
The 2018-19 season features a world premiere of a Cleveland Orchestra commission, Pantheon, by Cleveland Orchestra assistant principal oboist, Jeffrey Rathbun (September 20 and 22). The Orchestra has performed orchestral works by Rathbun on three occasions as well as one chamber music composition: Daredevil (1995), Three Psalms of Jerusalem (1998), Motions for Cellos (2000), and a chamber music performance of Three Diversions for Two Oboes (2013).

"When The Cleveland Orchestra announced the 100th Anniversary Celebration, I was excited for both the musicians and the entire organization, and knew that the recognition of this greatest of Orchestras would be very meaningful for all of our fans and supporters as well," said Jeffrey Rathbun. "I wanted to contribute to this anniversary in some way, so I proposed writing a composition. Having been a member of the Orchestra for 28 out of its 100 years, I am familiar with my distinguished colleagues' abilities, and a composer could never ask for a better ensemble to write for. My concept is to feature the sections that make up the Orchestra, both in individual solos, highlighting by section and combinations of sections. While the composer is the creator of a musical work, it is the distinguished musicians on stage that bring it to life - the illustrious performers being, in essence, a Pantheon of the highest artistic quality."

Daniel R. Lewis Young Composer Fellow
Bernd Richard Deutsch will begin his first year as The Cleveland Orchestra's tenth Daniel R. Lewis Young Composer Fellow in the 2018-19 season. As part of the fellowship, he has been commissioned to create a new work to be premiered by the Orchestra during the 2019-20 season. During the 2018-19 season the Orchestra will give the first Cleveland performances of Deutsch's Okeanos (March 14, 15, 16, and 17), and Deutsch will participate in rehearsals and in educational activities serving the Northeast Ohio community as part of his fellowship. The Daniel R. Lewis Young Composer Fellow program began in 1998. Works by the composers are commissioned by The Cleveland Orchestra through the Young Composers Endowment Fund, which was established in 1997 by a generous endowment gift from Daniel R. Lewis and Jan R. Lewis.

The Cleveland Orchestra's annual gala supports the Orchestra's education and community programs which share the value and joy of music with people throughout Northeast Ohio.

Center for Future Audiences, Young Audiences Development
https://www.clevelandorchestra.com/support-and-volunteers/center-for-future-audiences/
The Cleveland Orchestra's Center for Future Audiences was established to fund programs to develop new generations of audiences for Cleveland Orchestra concerts in Northeast Ohio. The Center was created in 2010 with a $20 million lead endowment gift from the Maltz Family Foundation. Center-funded programs focus on addressing economic and geographic barriers to attending Cleveland Orch­estra concerts at Severance Hall and Blossom Music Center. Programs include research, introductory offers, targeted discounts, student ticket programs, and integrated use of new technologies.

More young people than ever are attending Cleveland Orchestra concerts at Severance Hall and at each summer's Blossom Music Festival. Over 20% of the classical concert audience is now made up of patrons 25 years old and under, up from just 8% prior to the introduction of the expansion of programs made possible by the Center's funding.

"The Cleveland Orchestra has consistently sold tickets to more than 40,000 young people and their families in each of the last five seasons. Sustaining our offerings for new audiences is a long-term commitment, with programs that generate interest no matter your age. Making sure that with each foundational building block, each program and each initiative we maintain a rock-solid base for the future is our strategic audience focus. We began this quest centered on the very youngest future patrons, then added students and young professionals, and it is safe to say all the programs have been remarkably successful. Maintaining our relevance for audiences as they grow up with us is our most important objective." said Ross Binnie, Director of the Center for Future Audiences.

The Members Club: started in 2016, this program is geared toward expanding audience participation among Millennial and Generation X audiences (though participation is open to anyone) by providing the flexibility of a monthly membership program as opposed to a traditional subscription. For a monthly fee, each member has access to attend concerts on the days of their choosing without being locked into concert dates or packages. Currently, the Members Club has over 230 members who attend an average of 6+ concerts per season, more than doubling their concert attendance before being part of the program. https://www.clevelandorchestra.com/tickets/memberships/

The Circle: launched in January 2014, it provides a monthly membership model for young professionals (21-40) to not only receive subsidized tickets but also to engage with the Orchestra and its musicians on a deeper level, including behind-the-scenes access, networking, and volunteer opportunities. As The Circle enters its fourth year, there are currently 335 members, the highest membership number to date with an average of five new members per month over the past year, an active volunteer board structure, and a wide variety of engaging events. https://www.clevelandorchestra.com/tickets/circle-membership/

The Student Advantage Program encourages broader participation from area students across Northeast Ohio. Members receive discounted tickets, exclusive invitations to masterclasses, post-concert receptions with musicians, and behind-the-scenes open rehearsals. As of March 2018 membership is at 1704 with an average of 65 students joining each month over the course of the season. https://www.clevelandorchestra.com/Tickets/students/

Frequent Fan Cards ($50 for the season to attend any classical concert) were introduced for students in 2012-13. Designed to encourage and enable more frequent attendance among student patrons, 396 cards were purchased in that first season. As of March 2018, in the 2017-18 season, there is the highest number of card holders at 1857. The cards have also had the desired effect of encouraging repeat attendance, growing the frequency from 1.2 concerts per season before its inception to 5.2 last year. https://www.clevelandorchestra.com/Tickets/students/

"Under 18s Free" is a program of The Cleveland Orchestra's Center for Future Audiences. "Under 18s Free" continues to develop young audiences by making attending Orchestra concerts affordable for families, offering free tickets to young people, 17 and under, for select Severance Hall concerts again this season. https://www.clevelandorchestra.com/tickets/under-18s-free-for-families/

Concerts for Families and Community - A lifelong musical journey begins in childhood
The Cleveland Orchestra has a long and proud history of sharing the joys and benefits of music with citizens throughout Northeast Ohio.

The Cleveland Orchestra has introduced more than 4 million young people to symphonic music through live concert experiences and performances over the past ten decades. Today, with the support of many generous individual, foundation, corporate, and governmental funding partners, the Orchestra's education and community programs reach more than 60,000 young people and adults annually, helping to foster a love of music for a lifetime.
