The Chamber Orchestra of Barrington at St. John’s presents the final concert of founding music director Edward Markward’s eight-year tenure.
The concert features the premiere of Kari Henrik Juusela’s “Barrington, Fantasy on a Hymn Tune by Daniel Read.” Read was an early American tunesmith and part of the First New England School of composers. The work was commissioned by the COBSJ. Kari Henrik Juusela is a Finnish-American composer, the former Dean of the Professional Writing and Music Technology Division at Berklee College of Music in Boston and principal cellist of the COBSJ.
Rounding out the program are Samuel Barber's Adagio for Strings, Op. 11, W.A. Mozart’s Overture and March of the Priests from “The Magic Flute” and his Symphony No. 35 in D Major, the “Haffner,” perhaps the most sparkling of Mozart’s great symphonies.
