2001-02 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.
