Conducted by Nicolas Waldvogel, the orchestra will perform several selections including Debussy's "La Mer", "Palinody for 14 Players in 7 Groups" by COM alumnus Yoshi Onishi, and two compositions written by Conservatory faculty member Francois Rose; "From a distant mountain, a Ray" and "L'ombre australe de Mineko". "From a distant mountain, a Ray" is a concerto for saxophone quartet featuring Conservatory faculty member David Henderson and the Premiere Saxophone Quartet. "L'ombre australe de Mineko", written for the University Symphony Orchestra, was inspired by Japanese writer Natsume Soseki's novel "Sanshiro". This concert will mark its premiere.
