SUMMARY:Performance:University Symphony Orchestra
DESCRIPTION:Are our life-journeys predetermined by the unstoppable forces of fate or can we shape our own destiny? Two of the most beloved pieces in all of orchestra music seem to provide two contrasting answers. The striking overture to Verdi’s *La Forza del Destino* (The Force of Destiny)\, portrays a dark account of human struggle against circumstances and fate. Tchaikovsky’s Fifth Symphony tells a different story during a dramatic journey that overcomes its fate motive\, culminating in a magnificent and uplifting anthem of human triumph. Hailed by the *New York Times* as “a brilliant soloist\,” U-M faculty member Fabiola Kim\, is featured in the world premiere of the Violin Concerto by Quinn Mason\, the 7th commission of the Michigan Orchestra Repertoire for Equity (MORE) initiative\, founded in 2020 by USO Music Director Kenneth Kiesler.                                                      \n\nKenneth Kiesler\, conductor\nFabiola Kim\, violin (Mason)\n\nPROGRAM\n\nOverture to *La forza del destino*                                        \nGiuseppe Verdi\n\nViolin Concerto (world premiere)                                             \nQuinn Mason        \n\nSymphony No. 5                                                   \nPyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky\n\nConcert Duration: 1 hour and 40 minutes
