1999-2000 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 explored. As always, the orchestra's repertoire includes music from the Eighteenth, Nineteenth, and Twentieth Centuries, with some well known masterworks and other pieces that few musicians ever get the chance to explore.
Eric Lindholm was on leave from the College during the Fall 1999 semester, and the orchestra’s two programs in the first half of the year were be led by Gregory Magie.
- Beethoven -- Symphony #1 in C major
- Liszt -- Tasso, Lamento e Trionfo
- Mendelssohn -- "Hebrides" overture (or "Fingal's Cave")
- Mozart -- Symphony #39 in E-flat major
- Poulenc -- Concerto for Two Pianos and Orchestra (Susan Chen ’02 and Peter Chang ’01, pianos)
- Schumann -- Symphony #3 in E-flat major, "Rhenish"
- Stravinsky -- Suite from The Firebird
- Tchaikovsky -- Symphony #5 in E minor
