SUMMARY:Clear Space Theatre Company presents Oklahoma
DESCRIPTION:Music by Richard Rogers\, Book and Lyrics by Oscar Hammerstein II\nBased on Green Grow the Lilacs by Lynn Riggs\nMar. 7 – 23 \nAt the turn of the century\, only one stretch of land in America remained untamed: the territory that would become the state of Oklahoma. Living on the unspoiled land were farmers and their families – and the cowmen looking to find a future. Curly thinks he’s found his future in Laurey\, but he isn’t the only man calling on her. Their love story may be as bumpy as a surrey ride down a country road – and became not only the first true American musical\, but also Clear Space’s very first production 20 years ago. Revisit it with us two decades later for an adventure embracing hope and the promise of a bright future\, just behind that golden haze on the meadow. \nPresenting Sponsor: Carl Schloegel\nSupporting Sponsor: GGA Construction \nAll pics & info from the website Oklahoma! – Clear Space Theatre

SUMMARY:Mid-Atlantic Symphony Announces Finalists for Elizabeth Loker International Concerto Competition
DESCRIPTION:Delmarva Peninsula- The Mid-Atlantic Symphony Orchestra (MSO) is pleased to announce the three finalists selected for the prestigious Elizabeth Loker International Concerto Competition (ELICC). These young musicians\, chosen from around the world\, will perform with the MSO on Sunday\, March 23\, 2025\, at 3:00 PM at Todd Hall for the Performing Arts at Chesapeake College in Wye Mills\, MD. The ELICC is quickly becoming one of the most distinguished competitions worldwide for young classical musicians aged 12 to 25. \nThe competition drew remarkable talent from across the U.S. and internationally\, with applicants hailing from 27 states and countries including Australia\, Canada\, China\, Croatia\, Germany\, the Netherlands\, Portugal\, and Russia. The finalists will each perform a concerto of their choice with the MSO\, conducted by Music Director Michael Repper\, in front of a distinguished panel of judges. What sets the ELICC apart is the unique opportunity for finalists to perform with a full orchestra\, as opposed to the typical piano accompaniment provided in most competitions. This offers an unparalleled experience for these young musicians\, many of whom will be performing as soloists with a full orchestra for the first time. \nThe three finalists vying for top honors are: \n●     Christopher Chung\, Bassoon (New York City)\, performing Ciranda das Sete Notas by Heitor Villa-Lobos \n●     Jonah Kwek\, Piano (Singapore)\, performing Piano Concerto No. 1 in B-flat minor\, Op. 23 by Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky \n●     Britton-René Alyssa Collins\, Marimba (New York City)\, performing Concerto for Marimba by Sergei Golovko \nEach of these artists brings their own unique style and passion to the stage\, having built impressive resumes and garnered accolades across international music circuits. \nChristopher Chung\, a student at the Juilliard School\, has performed with top orchestras including the Los Angeles Chamber Orchestra and Minnesota Orchestra. He is known for his work with Sonarsix\, a woodwind quintet\, and his contributions to the Ziering-Conlon Initiative for Recovered Voices. \nJonah Kwek\, a graduate of the Yong Siew Toh Conservatory of Music in Singapore and currently pursuing a Master of Music at the Peabody Institute\, is recognized for his versatility and has performed as a soloist and collaborative pianist worldwide. His recent achievements include winning the MTNA Stecher and Horowitz Two Piano Competition with his duo partner. \nBritton-René Alyssa Collins\, a percussion virtuoso and recipient of numerous awards including the prestigious Princeton University Hodder Fellowship\, has performed globally in venues such as Carnegie Hall and the Kennedy Center. Her musical mission also encompasses social change\, using percussion as a tool to celebrate Black identity. \nMSO’s Music Director Michael Repper is eager to conduct the finalists\, bringing his youthful dynamism to the concert. “I am deeply excited to work with these extraordinary young musicians\,” Repper said. “The energy and talent they bring to the stage will be a powerful reminder of the next generation of classical performers.” \nIn addition to the performances\, the MSO is proud to continue its educational mission by offering complimentary tickets to hundreds of local music students\, inspiring the next generation of musicians with this high-level competition. \nEvent Details\nDate: Sunday\, March 23\, 2025\nTime: 3:00 PM\nLocation: Todd Hall for the Performing Arts\, Chesapeake College\, Wye Mills\, MD \nThe Mid-Atlantic Symphony Orchestra invites music enthusiasts to witness the future of classical music at this thrilling competition concert\, where rising stars will showcase their talent and passion\, leaving audiences inspired by the next generation of world-class musicians. \nABOUT THE MID-ATLANTIC SYMPHONY ORCHESTRA \nThe Mid-Atlantic Symphony Orchestra (MSO) is the only professional symphony orchestra serving southern Delaware and Maryland’s Eastern Shore with a full season of programs.
