2007-08 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.

 

  • Beethoven – Symphony #6 in F, “Pastorale”
  • Brahms – Symphony #1 in C minor
  • Holst – Venus, the Bringer of Peace
  • Martinů – Oboe Concerto (with Francisco Castillo, faculty guest soloist)
  • Mendelssohn – “Hebrides” overture (or “Fingal’s Cave”)
  • Mozart – Flute Concerto #1 in G (with Yoon-Chan Kim ’10, concerto competition winner)
  • Mozart – Mass in C (“Coronation”), K. 317 (with the Pomona College Choir, Donna M. Di Grazia, director)
  • Poulenc – Gloria (with Holly Shaw Price and the Pomona College Choir, Donna M. Di Grazia, director)
  • Sibelius – Symphony #1 in E minor
  • Sibelius – Symphony #7 in C
