Posted February 24, 2003
HOLLAND -- The Hope College Orchestra will perform
on Wednesday, March 12, at 8 p.m. in Dimnent Memorial
Chapel.
The public is invited. Admission is free.
The concert will feature the three romantic
composers, Sibelius, Franck and Tchaikovsky.
The first work on the program will be "Finlandia"
by Jean Sibelius, a dramatic tone poem depicting the
intensity of the Finnish spirit in both the struggle to be
free of Russian influences and the fierce determination to
be independent.
Next, Hope faculty member pianist Mansoon Han Kim
will perform the "Symphonic Variations" of Cesar Franck.
The program will close with Peter Ilyich
Tchaikovsky's "Symphony No. 5 in e minor," a symphony in
four movements depicting his complex, introspective
personality.
Dimnent Memorial Chapel is located on College
Avenue at 12th Street.
