An important update from OrpheusPDX:
After careful consideration, we will be pausing productions until 2027 due to a decline in philanthropic support across the arts sector. We are deeply grateful for the support of our community and look forward to bringing you the artistic excellence and vitality you've come to expect when we return to the stage.
Thank you for being part of the OrpheusPDX community. ❤️

🗣️ Announcing Deanna Tham as the Redlands Symphony's newly appointed Music Director & Conductor!

We received thousands of comments and survey answers when our three conducting finalists were in town at the beginning of the season. Each candidate came to Redlands with a unique voice, a depth of musical knowledge and experience, and a curiosity about how to make Redlands and the surrounding communities a musical hotspot for connection, enrichment, and excellent quality of life.

After a process lasting almost 2 years, the Board of Directors is pleased to welcome Deanna Tham as the 9th Music Director and Conductor of the Redlands Symphony. Tham is also the Music Director of the Union Symphony (NC) and has held positions with Oregon, Omaha, and Jacksonville Symphonies as well as numerous prestigious guest conducting positions across the country and the world.

We can’t wait to tune in!

Friday on Northwest Previews, host Andrea Murray speaks to multi-Grammy-nominated Cellist Matt Haimovitz about his friendship with the late, great Jacqueline du Pré. Widely regarded as one of the prominent cellists of the 20th century, du Pré befriended a then-teenage Haimovitz in the years after her illness forced her to quit performing.

Tune in Friday at 8:00 AM to hear Haimovitz's sweet memories of his friend and about the chamber opera, Jaqueline, coming up at OrpheusPDX. Join us at 89.9 FM or allclassical.org.
