Mark O’Connor is in Wheeling this week. He’s performing his American Seasons with the Wheeling Symphony on Friday (the concert also includes two by Beethoven: the Sixth Symphony “Pastorale” and the Coriolan Overture).
Wheeling Symphony Music Director Maestro André Raphel spoke with me before the season started for a few minutes about looking forward to this concert and the festival:
On Wednesday, O’Connor and Raphel presented a lecture concert about folk music and nature. Today Mark O’Connor is speaking at several schools in the area. Tonight there will be a lecture called “The Music of Nature: Soundscape Recordings as Art Forms.” Tomorrow, there is the concert, as well as a pre-concert talk and reception. You can find event details on the Wheeling Symphony website.
