See the conducting stars of tomorrow in these engaging concerts where student conductors rotate between conducting a movement of a work, or playing in the orchestra. Program Director and AMFS Music Director Robert Spano observes the work of his students at this weekly event.

In the composer’s words, Unsuk Chin’s 7 minute Frontispiece “presents a time lapse of a kind of the history of music: certain aspects of a number of key symphonic works of different epochs are being evoked and poured into new molds by letting them interact and comment upon each other…To give but a few examples: certain chord sequences by Anton Bruckner are interpreted in a manner akin to Anton von Webern, splinters of Strauss, Scriabin and Stravinsky collide, Brahmsian harmony passes through the prisms of, say, Charles Ives, and certain material from Tchaikovsky’s Sixth Symphony – Heaven forbid – is being presented a la manière de Pierre Boulez.”

After hearing a snippet from it in Unsuk Chin’s piece, Tchaikovsky’s popular Sixth Symphony will be presented in its entirety following a piece showcasing the summer’s piano competition winner.
