Four of Connecticut’s most talented student instrumental and vocal musicians will make their entrance with the Orchestra as the winners of Hamden Symphony’s 56th Young Musicians Concerto Competition. Cellists Balian Buttimer and Talya Hadari, pianist Amanda Huang, and soprano Alexandra Lynch will perform works of Lalo, Dvorak, Beethoven and Handel respectively. 

Continuing in Hamden Symphony’s tradition of presenting new compositions for Orchestra, this concert will feature the world-premiere of two new works of local composers; the opening movement of Symphony # 1: Genesis by Quinnipiac University student and Hamden Symphony violinist, Oscar Lin, as well as the Sinfonia in Landscapes of Dr. Joshua Groffman, associate professor and chair of the music department of Southern Connecticut State University.

Rounding out this program will be the concluding movement of Ottorino Respighi’s tone-poem, Pines of Rome, replete with brass that will surround the hall, depicting a triumphal parade down the Via Appia at the cusp of dawn. 

No tickets are required in advance. A $15 Suggested Donation ($10 Students/Seniors) will be accepted at the door. 

This performance is sponsored by Paul and Elizabeth Mathey. Additional support is provided by the Connecticut Department of Economic and Community Development, Office of the Arts, which also receives support from the National Endowment for the Arts, a federal agency.
