2009-10 Pomona College Orchestra Repertoire
The Pomona College Orchestra presents four full-length programs each season.
In the four years of a typical college career, a huge amount of music can be
enjoyed and performed. As always, the orchestra’s repertoire includes music in
a wide historical range, from the eighteenth century to the present day. Some
pieces are established masterworks, while others are lesser-known gems that few
musicians ever get the chance to explore. If interested in attending any of
this season’s performances, refer to the 2009-10 concert
