Orpheus Chamber Orchestra
with Susan Graham, soprano

THU, MAY 7, 7:30 PM

Overture Hall

Some orchestras are closely identified with a colorful conductor who molds the group in his or her image and serves as a focus of attention. Not the Orpheus Chamber Orchestra. The world-renowned, Grammy-winning Orpheus is musician-driven, working for its entire 35-year history without deference to a central authority figure. The result is a unique chemistry and energy that smashes the barrier between performer and audience. For this performance, Orpheus is joined by soprano Susan Graham, whom Opera News calls “a glowing musical central figure … [Graham] has aristocratic musical and vocal qualities that set her apart from other singers.”
