Diamond Jubilee: 60th-Anniversary Season
Stephen Alltop, music director and conductor
J. David Harris, clarinet
Timothy McGovern, bassoon

What better way to celebrate CUSO’s Diamond Anniversary than with the scintillating Rounds for String Orchestra by David Diamond? The soloistic skills of clarinetist J. David Harris and bassoonist Timothy McGovern will shine in Richard Strauss’ Duet-Concertino. Tchaikovsky’s boldly expressive Symphony No. 5, performed by CUSO in the orchestra’s very first season, will round out this memorable evening.

Diamond: Rounds for String Orchestra
R. Strauss: Duet-Concertino
Tchaikovsky: Symphony No. 5 in E Minor, Op. 64

This performance will last approximately one hour and 40 minutes including a 20-minute intermission.
