Ode to New Hampshire

Symphony NH kicks off its 100th anniversary celebratory season with a musical tapestry incorporating historical and modern pieces and featuring works written about or in New Hampshire. Oliver Caplan’s Lunastella Fuga enfolds one in the magic of a simple summer night during a camping trip in New Hampshire. John Adam’s “Shaking and Trembling” from his Shaker Loops is a modern dance of dense, swirling sounds that juxtaposes beautifully with New Hampshirite Amy Beach’s renowned Bal Masque. Closing the evening is none other than Stravinsky’s Firebird Suite, a magestic symphonic piece highlighting the orchestra that will leave you dancing all the way home.

Joining SNH to perform the radiant Rex Tremendae and other stirring choral passages is none other than the Nashua Choral Society in a nod to SNH’s past when the two organizations performed together regularly.
