Got a Yen to Go to Jarvifest?

Sometimes I feel like I'm always the last one to know -- this time it's about a little road trip that's being planned by CSO Encore! to Detroit this June to see Paavo conduct the Detroit Symphony Orchestra on his dad Neeme's last weekend as Music Director. Last time Paavo conducted there, I believe, was in 1998 and the guest artist was the brilliant English violinist, Nigel Kennedy. This time his guest artists are the husband and wife team of Michael Collins, clarinet, and Isabelle van Kuelen, violin, in the World Premiere of Erkki-Sven Tüür's Concerto for Violin, Clarinet and Orchestra. Also on this program: Mozart's Overture to La clemenza di Tito and Schumann's Symphony No. 3, "Rhenish".

"ON THE ROAD…CSOEncore! is going on a road trip! You’re invited! We’re headed for a Detroit Symphony Orchestra concert, June 17-19. Our own Paavo Järvi will be conducting a concert of Mozart, Schumann, and Tüür. We’ll travel to Detroit on the evening of Friday, June 17, enjoy some local activities on Saturday morning and afternoon, then attend Saturday evening’s pre-concert jazz dinner, concert, and afterparty with our colleagues from Overtures, the Detroit Symphony Orchestra young professionals group. We’ll head back to Cincinnati Sunday morning - not too early. Tickets are $200, on sale now, and include transportation (yes, to AND from Detroit), double occupancy lodging at the Marriott Renaissance Center, and dinner/concert/afterparty. Single occupancy is available for an upcharge. Deadline is May 20. Call Deb (513-744-3356) for more details or e-mail to dbell@cincinnatisymphony.org."
