Sometimes, the best way to get an orchestra to play what you’re hearing in your head is to sing it yourself. 🎶

At rehearsal, Alex Prior does just that. Singing a phrase lets the musicians hear how he wants it to feel. His gestures help shape the sound, showing where the music needs more weight or a lighter touch.

It’s a conversation between conductor and orchestra, with plenty of singing along the way.

Come hear it all come together tomorrow night! Join us for Opening Night at 7:30 p.m. at the Hult Center and keep an eye on Alex’s hands as you listen.

Opening night is this Thursday, October 15, and you don’t need to be a classical music expert to be in the room.

When we asked Alex what people should listen for, his answer surprised us: whatever moves you. Everyone brings their own life into the music, so what a piece says to you might be completely different from what it says to the person next to you, and both are right.

He compared it to Taylor Swift songs: everyone thinks the lyrics are about them, and that’s the genius. Great music works the same way.

What he hopes you leave with is a feeling of being connected to the people around you, and a reminder of how much we all have in common. Three pieces, one night, a full orchestra, and a hall full of neighbors.

Music Director Alex Prior will challenge Eugene Symphony to break from tradition and embrace roughness and drama. He believes that by playing 'ugly,' they can make moments of beauty truly meaningful and impactful. Hear it 10/15.
