Perspectives from the Executive Director
7Severance Hall 2012-13 7Severance Hall 2012-13
January 2013
Welcome to Severance Hall and the fi rst concerts of 2013!
There is much good news to report about The Cleveland Orch-
estra’s ticket sales success in recent months and for the season as
a whole. Continuing artistic success and signifi cant programmatic
changes have put the current 2012-13 Severance Hall season on
track to achieve a new all-time record for ticket sales revenue.
The months of November and December 2012 broke all previous records. More than
47,000 people purchased tickets for twenty-six performances, a 28% increase over the
twenty-fi ve concerts performed in the same months in 2011.
This success was propelled by the most diversifi ed programming we have ever off ered,
ranging from Classical, Celebrity, KeyBank Fridays@7, and Holiday Festival concerts,
to The Nutcracker, Pink Martini, and Charlie Chaplin’s Modern Times accompanied by
the Orch estra. Overall paid attendance fi lled 92% of the available seats and revenues
totaled $2.8 million, an amazing 60% increase over last year.
Sales are strong for the entire September-to-May season. As January begins, revenues
are running 24% ahead of the same time last year and are on track to achieve an all-time
record of $7.6 million. The previous record was set more than a decade ago.
This season’s renaissance is a convincing sign that the public is responding to the Orch-
estra’s many changes. More people are attending more kinds of performances than
ever before, and more new people — and young people — are entering the doors of
Severance Hall to enjoy the Orchestra’s concerts each week.
A surge of student attendees, attracted by diversifi ed programs, special off ers, and
social media, has helped propel audience growth. The number of students attending
Cleveland Orchestra concerts at Severance Hall so far this season has more than dou-
bled over the same period a year ago.
There are many people to acknowledge and thank for this turn-around. Dozens of
sponsors and donors have generously funded the innovations behind these achieve-
ments. Every one of the institution’s employees, the extraordinary members of our
Orch estra and our tireless staff , has risen to the challenge of implementing change
— with our dedicated trustees leading the way. Finally, thousands of longtime and new
patrons have become loyal supporters, venturing with us through the many changes in
recent seasons. Thank you to all.
And what’s still to come? In future seasons, we will pursue ever-greater artistic
achievements under Franz’s inspiring leadership, alongside continuing innovation
as we work to ensure that The Cleveland Orchestra remains relevant and valuable in
our ever-changing community.

U N D E R T H E L E A D E R S H I P of Music Director Franz Welser-Möst, Th e Cleve-
land Orchestra has become one of the most sought-aft er performing ensem-
bles in the world. In concerts at its winter home at Severance Hall and at each
summer’s Blossom Festival, in residencies from Miami to Vienna, and on tour

lence, creative programming, and community engagement. Th e partnership

growth and an expanded fi nancial base, including an ongoing residency at
the Vienna Musik verein (the fi rst of its kind by an American orchestra);

Th e Cleveland Orchestra was founded in 1918 by a group of local citizens in-
tent on creating an ensemble worthy of joining America’s ranks of major sympho-
ny orchestras. Over the ensuing decades, the Orchestra quickly grew from a fi ne
regional organization to being one of the most admired symphony orchestras in
the world. Th e opening in 1931 of Severance Hall as the Orchestra’s home brought
a special pride to the ensemble and its hometown, as well as providing an enviable
and intimate acoustic environment in which to develop and refi ne the Orchestra’s
artistry. Year-round performances became a reality in 1968 with the opening of
Blossom Music Center, one of the most beautiful and acoustically admired outdoor
concert facilities in the United States.

Franz Welser-Möst Music Director Kelvin Smith Family Endowed Chair The Cleveland Orchestra
T H E 2 01 2 -1 3 S E A S O N marks Franz Welser-Möst’s
eleventh year as music director of Th e Cleveland
Orchestra, with a long-term commitment extend-
ing to the Orchestra’s centennial in 2018. Under his
direction, the Orchestra is acclaimed for its continu-
ing artistic excellence, is enlarging and enhancing its
community programming at home, is presented in a
series of ongoing residencies in the United States and
Europe, continues its historic championship of new
composers through commissions and premieres, and
has re-established itself as an important operatic en-
semble. Concurrently with his post in Cleveland, Mr. Welser-Möst became
general music director of the Vienna State Opera in September 2010.
With a committed focus on music education in Northeast Ohio, Franz
Welser-Möst has taken Th e Cleveland Orchestra back into public schools with
performances in collaboration with the Cleveland Metropolitan School District.
Th e initiative continues and expands upon Mr. Welser-Möst’s active participation
in community concerts and educational programs, including the Cleveland Orches-
tra Youth Orchestra and partnerships with music conservatories and universities
across Northeast Ohio.
Under Mr. Welser-Möst’s leadership, Th e Cleveland Orchestra has established
an ongoing biennial residency in Vienna at the famed Musikverein concert hall and
another at Switzerland’s Lucerne Festival. Together, they have appeared in residence
at Suntory Hall in Tokyo, Japan, and at the Salzburg Festival, where a 2008 residency
included fi ve sold-out performances of a staged production of Dvořák’s opera Rusalka.
In the United States, Mr. Welser-Möst has established an annual multi-week Cleveland
Orch estra residency in Florida under the name Cleveland Orchestra Miami and, in
2011, launched a new biennial residency at New York’s Lincoln Center Festival.
To the start of this season, Th e Cleveland Orchestra has performed fourteen
world and fi ft een United States premieres under Franz Welser-Möst’s direction.
Th rough the Roche Commissions project, he and the Orchestra have premiered
works by Harrison Birtwistle, Chen Yi, Hanspeter Kyburz, George Benjamin,
Toshio Hosokawa, and Matthias Pintscher in partnership with the Lucerne Festi-
val and Carnegie Hall. In addition, the Daniel R. Lewis Young Composer Fellow
program has brought new voices to the repertoire, including Pintscher, Marc-An-
dré Dalbavie, Susan Botti, Julian Anderson, Johannes Maria Staud, Jörg Widmann,
and Sean Shepherd.

in Cleveland, re-establishing the Orchestra as an important oper-
atic ensemble. Following six seasons of opera-in-concert presen-
tations, he brought fully staged opera back to Severance Hall with
a three-season cycle of Zurich Opera productions of the Mozart-
Da Ponte operas. He led concert performances of Strauss’s Sa-
lome at Severance Hall and at Carnegie Hall in May 2012.
Franz Welser-Möst became general music director of the
Vienna State Opera in 2010. His long partnership with the com-
pany has included acclaimed performances of Tristan and Isolde,
a new production of Wagner’s Ring cycle with stage director Sven-
Eric Bechtolf, and critically praised new productions of Hin-
demith’s Cardillac and Janáček’s Katya Kabanova and From the
House of the Dead. During the 2012-13 season, his Vienna performances include
Wagner’s Parsifal, Strauss’s Arabella and Ariadne auf Naxos, Puccini’s La Bohème,
and Berg’s Wozzeck.
Mr. Welser-Möst also maintains an ongoing relationship with the Vienna Phil-
harmonic. Recent performances with the Philharmonic include appearances at the
Lucerne Festival and Salzburg Festival, in Tokyo, and in concert at La Scala Milan,
as well as leading the Philharmonic’s 2011 New Year’s Day concert, viewed by telecast
in seventy countries worldwide; he conducted the New Year’s Day concert again at
the start of 2013 and also leads the Philharmonic in a series of concerts at New York’s
Carnegie Hall in March 2013. Across a decade-long tenure with the Zurich Opera,
culminating in three seasons as general music director (2005-08), Mr. Welser-Möst
led the company in more than 40 new productions and numerous revivals.
Franz Welser-Möst’s recordings and videos have won major awards, including
the Gramophone Award, Diapason d’Or, Japanese Record Academy Award, and
two Grammy nominations. With Th e Cleveland Orchestra, he has created DVD
recordings of live performances of Bruckner symphonies, presented in three ac-
coustically distinctive venues (the Abbey of St. Florian in Austria, Vienna’s Musik-
verein, and Severance Hall). With Cleveland, he has also released a recording of
Beethoven’s Ninth Symphony as well as an all-Wagner album featuring soprano
Measha Brueggergosman. DVD releases on the EMI label have included Mr. Wels-
er-Möst leading Zurich Opera productions of Th e Marriage of Figaro, Così fan tutte,
Don Giovanni, Der Rosenkavalier, Fierrabras, and Peter Grimes.
For his talents and dedication, Mr. Welser-Möst has received honors that
include recognition from the Western Law Center for Disability Rights, honor-
ary membership in the Vienna Singverein, appointment as an Academician of the
European Academy of Yuste, a Gold Medal from the Upper Austrian government
for his work as a cultural ambassador, a Decoration of Honor from the Republic of
Austria for his artistic achievements, and the Kilenyi Medal from the Bruckner So-
ciety of America. He is the co-author of Cadences: Observations and Conversations,
published in a German edition in 2007.

January 20, 2013
Welcome to The Cleveland Orchestra’s 33rd annual concert in celebration of
the birthday of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. We are pleased to once again collaborate
with the City of Cleveland to present this event that celebrates the life and legacy
of Dr. King through classical, gospel, and spiritual music performed by our Cleve-
land Orchestra.
We extend a warm welcome to this evening’s guest artists — conductor Tito
Muñoz, the Martin Luther King Jr. Celebration Chorus and Central State University
Chorus, prepared by William Henry Caldwell, and 2012 Sphinx Competition prize-
winning violinist Adé Williams.
At the start of the concert, The Cleveland Orchestra in cooperation with the
City of Cleveland and the Greater Cleveland Partnership present this year’s Dr. Martin
Luther King Jr. Community Service Awards. These awards, detailed on the following
pages, represent recognition for community service and leadership across three im-
portant categories — an Organization, an Adult, and, now in its sixth year, an award
recognizing the promise of Youth, plus a Special Recognition award.
We are grateful to several partners who make this concert possible. In addi-
tion to our co-presenter, the City of Cleveland, we recognize our generous sponsor,
KeyBank, a Cleveland Orchestra Partner in Excellence. Thanks to Cleveland radio sta-
tion WCLV, this concert is being enjoyed by thousands across Northeast Ohio as they
listen to the live broadcast on radio stations WCLV (104.9 FM) and WCPN (90.3 FM).
We also acknowledge the members of the Orchestra’s Community Relations Commit-
tee for their thoughtful guidance and contributions toward the ongoing work of the
institution.
Please join us tomorrow, Monday, January 21, here at Severance Hall for our an-
nual Martin Luther King Jr. Community Open House. This free community event from
12:00 to 5:00 p.m. features a variety of activities and performances. Complete details

Tito Muñoz, joins with the Central State University Chorus, the Martin Lu-
ther King Jr. Celebration Chorus, choral conductor William Henry Caldwell,

humanity. Th rough this concert, we celebrate Dr. King’s dream and recom-
mit to the goal of making Cleveland a city where citizens live and work as

RESOLUTIONWHEREAS, the Reverend Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. was a man with
unwavering devotion to his faith in God, his family, community, nation, and world; and
WHEREAS, Dr. King dedicated his life to the principles of nonviolence, service, liberty, justice, and equality, which inspired millions around the world to work toward a common vision to make America, and the world, a place that is not segregated along racial lines, but joined in a “beautiful symphony of brotherhood”; and
WHEREAS, throughout his life, Dr. King’s words and action led to groundbreaking achievements such as the 1963 March on Washington where he spoke of his vision where all are judged “by the content of their character”; and
WHEREAS, Dr. King taught us that it is far better to “love than hate, to seek justice rather than revenge, to refrain from acts of violence nor excuse those who engage in violence or profess hatred for any people, group, or race”; and
WHEREAS, Dr. King’s efforts and legacy of service were honored in 1983 by the President of the United States and Congress with the establishment, by law, of a national holiday to observe the anniversary of his birth; and
WHEREAS, it is fitting that Ohioans reflect on the life and accomplish-ments of Dr. King and recognize that his vision continues to provide a powerful symbol of a life based on the values of love, peace, compassion, dignity, non-violence, and justice for all; and
WHEREAS, all Ohioans are encouraged to join with the state and nation as we remember Dr. King’s legacy of cooperation between all segments of our diverse community.
NOW, THEREFORE, I, John R. Kasich, Governor of the State of Ohio, do hereby recognize January 21, 2013, as
MARTIN LUTHER KING DAYthroughout Ohio and I urge all Ohioans to take part in the observance and cel-ebrate the life of Dr. King, whose struggle for civil rights and noble pursuit of equality for all Americans deserves our heartfelt appreciation.

Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.2013 Community Service Awards
The Cleveland Orchestra and the Greater Cleveland Partnership, in cooperation
with the City of Cleveland, are pleased to announce the recipients of the
Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Community Service Awards, who are positively
impacting Cleveland in the spirit of the teachings and example of Dr. King:
Care Alliance Health Center — organization
Dr. Betty K. Pinkney — adult individual
Justin Orr — youth individual
Cory United Methodist Church — special recognition
Award recipients demonstrate one or more of the following qualities:
• Leadership in community building
• Advocacy for educational excellence
• Accomplishments in furthering economic opportunity
• Promotion of social justice
• Achievements in advancing cultural awareness
• Adherence to the principles of nonviolence
• Achievements in organizational diversity and inclusion
• Involvement with music and the arts to promote greater
understanding and acceptance
ABOUT THE 2013 AWARD RECIPIENTSFor more than a quarter century, Care Alliance Health Center has
sought to uplift humanity each and every day through the delivery of high qual-
ity medical, dental, and supportive services to residents who are homeless, unin-
sured, under-insured, or living in extreme poverty. More recently, Care Alliance
has experienced a significant increase in demand for its services as Northeast
Ohioans continue to struggle with the impact of job losses and the economic
downturn. At Care Alliance Health Center, no one is turned away for inability
to pay. Dr. King said, “The time is always right to do what is right.” Care Alli-
ance does what is right by providing high quality health care to those who can
least afford it.
Dr. Betty Pinkney is a living example of Dr. King’s words, “Injustice any-
where is a threat to justice everywhere.” As a respected lawyer, political activist,
community leader, and classroom teacher, Dr. Betty Pinkney has been described
as “a profile in courage, civility, and commitment, for community empower-
Martin Luther King Jr. Community Service Awards
32 The Cleveland OrchestraMartin Luther King Jr. Community Service Awards
ment, social justice, and educational excellence.” She has served with distinc-
tion as an attorney with the Cleveland field office of the U.S. Equal Employment
Opportunity Commission and as district director to Congresswoman Stepha-
nie Tubbs-Jones and on the boards of numerous community organizations. Dr.
Pinkney was instrumental in advocating for programs to support education for
underserved students with NASA and Cleveland State University, and has been
a role model and guiding force for countless African American men and women
throughout the region. One supporter wrote, “Dr. Pinkney’s life exemplifies
many of the traits we associate with Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., another
great ‘Drum Major for Justice’.”
As president of the Cleveland NAACP Youth Council, Justin Orr led a
youth effort that registered over 600 voters for the 2012 election. In the spirit
of Dr. King, he traveled the community providing information and education,
focusing on registering youth turning 18, first-time voters, and ex-felons. Like
Dr. King, Justin is committed to bringing about positive change in his commu-
nity. This weekend Justin will conduct the second annual Youth Empowerment
Workshop, covering issues such as youth violence, financial literacy, and affir-
mative action. Justin is a Solon High School senior, a member of the National
Honor Society and the Varsity Track Team, serves as a Cleveland Clinic junior
ambassador, and is a Sunday School teacher at Destiny Church. He is the recipi-
ent of the 2012 national Medgar Evers Youth Leadership Award. Justin truly ex-
emplifies the type of youth that Dr. King envisioned to make this a better world.
Cory United Methodist Church, one of the oldest churches in Cleve-
land, was founded in 1875 and quickly became an important community center
as well as religious institution. By the 1940s, Cory operated a library, gymna-
sium, swimming pool, and music school, with three choirs and a concert hall.
Over the years, the congregation has reflected both the needs and the resources
of our community. Cory has been the site of the Cory Rec Center, operated in
part by the City’s Division of Recreation since 1961. As a community center for
political discourse and debate, Cory hosted both Malcolm X and Martin Luther
King Jr. in the 1960s. Malcolm X delivered his famous “The Ballot or the Bullet”
speech at Cory in 1964 and Martin Luther King Jr. gave his last speech in Cleve-
land at the church. Cory serves the greater community with its Hunger Center,
Headstart daycare program, Cory Kitchen, Senior Program, Credit Union, and
much more. Cory United Methodist Church also has a very special relationship
with The Cleveland Orchestra. For a number of years, from 1987 until 1997, and
again in 1999, The Cleveland Orchestra’s Martin Luther King Jr. Celebration
Concert was presented in the sanctuary of Cory Church. The concert eventually
outgrew Cory’s sanctuary and parking lot and moved permanently to Severance

you doing for others?’” Cory Church is recognized this year with a special
award, to honor all that it does for others through its unending service to the
Cleveland community in the spirit of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.

Sing a song full of the faith that the dark past has taught us. Sing a song full of the hope That the present has brought us. Facing the rising sun
of our new day begun, Let us march on ’til victory is won.
“Lift Every Voice and Sing”words by James Weldon Johnson (1871-1938), music by J. Rosamond Johnson (1873-1954)arranged by Roland Carter

Adé WilliamsViolinist Adé Williams is the fi rst place laureate of the Ju-
nior Division of the 2012 Sphinx Competition. At the age
of fourteen, she is making her debut with Th e Cleveland
Orchestra in this evening’s concert.
Named artist-in-residence with the Waukegan Sym-
phony Orchestra in 2012, Ms. Williams also had a year of
exciting opportunities in 2011, including a fourteen-city
tour with the Sphinx Virtuosi and appearing as solo-
ist internationally in Switzerland and Bermuda. Previous
competitions have included her being named a fi rst place
winner of the 2011 DePaul Concerto Festival for Young
Performers, fi rst place and best interpretation of Korean
music winner in the 2010 Senior and 2009 Junior Divisions of the Sejong Cultural
Society’s Music Competition, and (among her earliest awards) fi rst place in the 2005
Walgreen’s National Concerto Competition.
Adé Williams made her orchestral debut at the age of six in 2004 with the
Chicago Sinfonietta as that orchestra’s youngest soloist ever. She has appeared with
many ensembles since that time, including the Illinois Symphony Orchestra, High-
land Park Strings at Ravinia, and Chicago’s South Side Family Chamber Orchestra.
Her 2006 radio debut was on Chicago radio station WFMT’s Young Artist Showcase.
Ms. Williams played with the Okemo String Quartet 2009-11 and has been a
winner or fi nalist in several chamber music competitions. In 2004, she founded Sug-
arStrings (www.sugarstrings.com) with her cousins, Mira and Ayanna. Th e string
trio has performed for many charitable events in the Chicago area and has been fea-
tured widely on television and in print media.
Adé Williams performs on a violin by Jan van Rooyen, 2008, aft er the “Comte
de Villares” Stradivarius, 1720, on generous loan from the Rachel Elizabeth Barton
Foundation. She is honored to be a Bauder Fellow, a Links Fellow, and recipient of
generous support from Alexandra Nichols.
THE SPHINX COMPETITION is a program of the Sphinx Organization, a national arts organization
that focuses on youth and minority involvement in classical music. Held every year in Ann Arbor and
Detroit, Michigan, the competition is open to all junior high, high school, and college-age Black and
Latino string players residing in the United States. The purpose of the competition is to off er these young
musicians an opportunity to compete under the guidance of an internationally renowned panel of judges
and to perform with established professional musicians in a competition setting. Its primary goals are to
encourage, develop, and recognize classical music talent in the Black and Latino communities. While in
Cleveland, Sphinx laureates often assist education and community relations eff orts to increase interest,
awareness, and knowledge of classical music through school visits in Cleveland and East Cleveland, and
presentations at various community sites.

51Severance Hall 2012-13 Martin Luther King Jr. Celebration Concert
T H E C L E V E L A N D O R C H E S T R A demonstrated early
its commitment to honoring this country’s greatest
civil rights leader. Four days aft er the April 4, 1968,
assassination of Martin Luther King, Th e Cleveland
Orchestra under George Szell performed the “Alle-
gretto” movement from Beethoven’s Symphony No. 7
as a memorial tribute to the life of Dr. King.
Toward the end of the next decade, Th e Cleve-
land Orchestra played a key role in the evolution of a
more formal and institutionalized recognition of Dr.
King’s life. Th e Orchestra’s fi rst Martin Luther King
Jr. Concert took place in January 1980. In the program book of that fi rst con-
cert, Dr. Donald G. Jacobs, executive director of the Greater Cleveland Inter-
church Council, applauded Th e Cleveland Orchestra “ for taking seriously the
need for the whole community to recognize the vital role the life and death of Dr.
King con tinues to play in the struggle for racial justice and human dignity.”
Th e Martin Luther King Jr. Concert quickly became an annual event
both as a tribute to Dr. King and as an expression of commitment to the
struggle for racial justice and human dignity. From 1980 to 1986, the Musical
Arts Association and the Interchurch Council collaborated in presenting these
Severance Hall concerts. In January 1986, the Jewish Community Federation
and the Catholic Diocese of Cleveland joined the Interchurch Council and the
Musical Arts Association in sponsoring the event. Th at same year, the federal
government offi cially designated the third Monday in January as a public holi-
day celebrating the life and work of Dr. King.
In 1986, the City of Cleveland became directly involved in present-
ing these concerts at the request of Cleveland City Council President George
Forbes and Mayor George Voinovich.
From 1987 to 1997, the annual King concert took place at Cory United
Methodist Church, the site of Dr. King’s last speech in Cleveland. Th e concert
was held at Severance Hall in 1998 and again in 2000 as part of the re-opening
festivities following the Hall’s restoration. Severance Hall has continued to
host the concert since then.
Many distinguished performing artists have participated in these con-
certs, including Andrew Davis, Christoph von Dohnányi, Leslie Dunner,
Raymond Harvey, Isaiah Jackson, Kay George Roberts, André Raphel Smith,
Th omas Wilkins, Florence Quivar, Daisy New man, Cissy Houston, Janet Al-
corn, Barbara Conrad, John Cheek, Natalie Hinderas, William Warfi eld, Leon

Bibb, and John Fleming. Music Director Franz Welser-Möst fi rst con-
ducted the Martin Luther King Jr. Celebration Concert in 2003, and
also conducted it in 2004, 2006, and 2009.
Beginning with the 1989 concert, volunteers from the greater
Cleveland area were organized by Alvin Parris into a Community
Gospel Choir, now called the Martin Luther King Jr. Celebration Cho-
rus. In the past decade, William Henry Caldwell has taken on the role
of chorus director. Other choral participants have included the Cleve-
land Orchestra Chorus, Prestonian Choral Ensemble, Morgan State
University Choir, Shaw High School Concert Choir, Everett Moore
Singers, and the Central State University Chorus.
An important facet of these programs has been the presenta-
tion of contemporary American works, including those of Donald Erb,
William Grant Still, Ulysses Kay, Carman Moore, Alvin Parris, Joseph
Schwant ner, Hale Smith, Undine Smith Moore, George Walker, and
Lanny Wolfe. Th e singing of “Lift Every Voice and Sing,” with audi-
ence participation, has been a tradition since the 1984 concert.
Carol Jacobs served as Archivist for Th e Cleveland Orchestra from 1990 to 2007.

The following biographical sketch is reprinted, with appreciation, from
the New Jersey Education Association’s “NJEA Review” of January 1977.
T H I S G E N E R AT I O N H A S little or no direct experience or
knowledge of the strug gle for civil rights and human dignity in
this country, or of the heroes who led the protest, nor the price
they paid. In this age when we still see so much violence around
us, it is necessary and proper to study the lives and works of
men and women who achieved so much with nonviolent tech-
niques. Martin Luther King Jr. was one of those persons.
Michael Luther King was born in Atlanta, Georgia,
on January 15, 1929, the son and grandson of Baptist minis-
ters. He later changed his name to Martin Luther King. He
was protected somewhat as a child because he was the son of
“substantial” Black parents. However, he, too, faced personal
incidents in the South that smacked of discrimination and so-
cial injustice. In Atlanta, he attended Booker T. Washington
High School. By the time he was 19, he had graduated as a spe-
cial gift ed student from Morehouse College in Atlanta, Geor-
gia, and then continued his ministerial education by obtaining
a Bachelor of Divinity Degree at Crozer Th eological Seminary.
He was awarded a PhD from Boston University in 1955.
While he was pursuing his education in Massachusetts,
King met and married Coretta Scott from Alabama, who was
studying voice at the New England Conservatory of Music.
During those early formative years, he developed a fascination
for the life and teachings of Mahatma Gandhi, who articulated
a doctrine of passive resistance to gain freedom in India.
While Martin Luther King was studying for his doctor-

ate in 1954, he was off ered and accepted the pastorate of the Dexter Avenue
Baptist Church in Montgomery, Alabama. In 1955, Black people in Ala-
bama were still sent to the rear of any public conveyance — segregated seat-
ing. Th e Montgomery Improvement Association (MIA) was organized in
December 1955 to change that situation. King became MIA’s president and
preached resistance with love — not hate — for the oppressors. During this
period of change in Alabama, many Black people
were arrested, physically attacked, and otherwise
intimidated. Still their protest made its point. Th e
United States Supreme Court fi nally ruled that
existing Alabama laws regarding segregated seat-
ing were unconstitutional. Blacks and whites rode
buses for the fi rst time on a non-segregated basis.
Th e success of the venture taught civil rights ad-
vocates that there was power in good organization
and strong leadership, which King provided.
Martin Luther King was convinced that his
leadership strength lay in its nonviolent approach
and proceeded to follow his own dictates by orga-
nizing the Southern Christian Leadership Con-
ference (SCLC) in January 1957 to widen the eff ects of his Montgomery
success. King moved his family to Atlanta in 1959, where he joined forces
with his father, who was the minister associated with the Ebe nezer Baptist
Church. King’s life was anything but nonviolent. He was frequently ar-
rested, jailed, and physically bruised. Fire hoses and attack dogs became
a way of life for this fi ghter of social injustice. His life was one long thread
of demonstrations on buses and other public conveyances, in restaurants,
hotels, department stores and other places that needed to be desegregated.
Massive demonstrations took the form of freedom marches in Ala-
bama and Washington. Th ese challenged people of all faiths, races and
religions to join the fi ght for freedom for all Americans.
From all over the nation people joined together in support of the
civil rights movement. King’s speeches were impassioned and concerned
his personal and his race’s fi ght against prejudice. Th ey oft en referred to
his philosophy of nonviolence, containing the “I have a dream” appeal
fi rst introduced at the Lincoln Memorial in Washington D.C., during the
1963 March on Washington.
In 1964, Martin Luther King, at the age of 35, became the youngest
man to be awarded the Nobel Peace Prize. Four years later he was struck
down while supporting a sanitation worker strike in Memphis, Tennessee.
While standing on a motel balcony, on April 4, 1968, he was shot by an
assassin.

community. Together they spearheaded a num-
ber of initiatives, including the “Hands Across
Turney” Festival, sensitivity training, conflict
intervention, the welcome wagon program, and a
mural project. Through focusing on positive ex-

Ted Ginn Sr. is the head football and track
coach, and also security officer at Glenville High
School in the Cleveland Municipal School Dis-
trict. Mr. Ginn’s nomination alluded to his abil-

2013 New Year’s Day concert with Franz Welser-Möst and Vienna Philharmonic recordings now available
Sony Classical has announced the release
of the newest edition of one of the world’s
most famous classical music events — the
Vienna Philharmonic’s annual New Year’s Con-
cert from 2013. Franz Welser-Möst returned to
direct the 2013 concert following the success
of his debut in 2011.
The live recording became available on
January 4, exclusively at Arkiv Music and via
Amazon.com’s CreateSpace’s Disc on Demand
service as a CD, or as a download through all
major digital service providers. The CD version is
being released to other retailers on January 22,
with the DVD version following in February.
The New Year’s Concert of the Vienna
Philharmonic is fi rmly established as one of
the longest-standing and most prestigious
music events worldwide. In its history of more
than seven decades, the concert has been led
by many of the most famous conductors and
experienced by millions of people via televi-
sion broadcasts in over 70 countries.
In announcing the recordings, Clemens
Hellsberg, chairman of the Vienna Philhar-
monic, emphasized the plaudits that Franz
Welser-Möst earned for this event in 2011 and
his close association with the musical life of
Vienna as general music director of the State
Opera, making made him a natural choice to
encore his role for New Year’s.
For seven decades, the Vienna Philhar-
monic has presented this entertaining and
heartfelt annual New Year’s program, featur-
ing music from across the wide repertoire
created by the Johann Strauss family dynasty
and their contemporaries. The proven formula
blends well-known classics with premieres of
works that have never been performed before
at the New Year’s Concert. This year’s program
included eleven premieres (more than ever
before) and also paid tribute to Wagner and
Verdi, looking to the bicentennials this spring
of their births.
Welser-Möst advocates for art and culture with keynote address in Vienna
At the end of November, Franz Welser-
Möst delivered an impassioned keynote ad-
dress on the importance of supporting and
expanding a vibrant, multi-national cultural
life in modern society during a gala celebrat-
ing the Bicentennial of Vienna’s famed con-
cert hall, the Musikverein.
The event was held in the Brahmssaal
of the Musikverein and also featured re-
marks from Austria’s president, mini ster of
culture, and culture secretary, along with the
Musikverein’s president and intendant. The
event was held prior to a concert conducted
by Nikolaus Harnoncourt.
Welser-Möst’s speech addressed funda-
mental questions about how to champion
and renew culture in a world that too often
marginalizes these essential elements in fa-
vor of maintaining health and welfare.
“Cultivation, which must be one of the foun-
dations of any society, requires creativity,”
said Welser-Möst. “We must give this more
thought, to formulate new dreams and set
new goals — to aim for the impossible, both
for ourselves and for coming generations,
and to perhaps come just a bit closer to pre-
cisely that which we will never achieve. Any
person who wants to accomplish something
special does precisely this, by declaring the
impossible to be the goal.”

The Cleveland Orchestra’s catalog of recordings
continues to grow. The newest DVD features Bruckner’s
Eighth Symphony recorded live at Severance Hall under
the direction of Music Director Franz Welser-Möst in 2010
and released in May 2011. And, released in
2012, Dvořák’s opera Rusalka on CD, recorded
live at the Salzburg Festival. Writing of the
Rusalka performances, the reviewer for
London’s Sunday Times praised the perform -
ance as “the most spellbinding account
of Dvořák’s miraculous score I have ever
heard, either in the theatre or on record.
. . . I doubt this music can be better played than by the
Clevelanders, the most ‘European’ of the American or-
chestras, with wind and brass soloists to die for and a
string sound of superlative warmth and sensitivity.”
Other recordings released in recent years
include two under the baton of Pierre Boulez
and a third album of Mozart piano concertos
with Mitsuko Uchida, whose fi rst Cleveland
Orchestra Mozart album won a Grammy Award
in 2011.

H A I L E D A S O N E O F the world’s most
beautiful concert halls, Severance Hall
has been home to Th e Cleveland Or-
chestra since its opening on February 5,
1931. Aft er that fi rst concert, a Cleve-
land newspaper editorial stated: “We
believe that Mr. Severance intended
to build a temple to music, and not a
temple to wealth; and we believe it is his
intention that all music lovers should be
welcome there.” John Long Severance
(president of the Musical Arts Associa-
tion, 1921-1936) and his wife, Elisabeth,
donated most of the funds necessary to
erect this magnifi cent building. De-
signed by Walker & Weeks, its elegant
Georgian exterior was constructed to
harmonize with the classical architec-
ture of other prominent buildings in
the University Circle area. Th e interior
of the building refl ects a combination
of design styles, including Art Deco,
Egyptian Revival, Classicism, and Mod-
ernism. An extensive renovation, resto-
ration, and expansion of the facility was
completed in January 2000. In addition
to serving as the home of Th e Cleveland
Orchestra for concerts and rehearsals,
the building is rented by a wide variety
of local organizations and private citi-
zens for performances, meetings, and
gala events each year.

Carl Orff ’s joyous Carmina Burana bursts forth
like a boisterous street festival — fi lled with
great music, marvelous mayhem, and delightful
merriment. This modern-day Canterbury Tales
comes complete with lusty hymns to spring-
time, animated drinking songs, and a swan’s
anguishingly ironic farewell to life (on a barbe-
cue spit!). The concert also features the world
premiere of a new work by Sean Shepherd.

Antonín Dvořák’s brief tenure in America in
the 1890s was truly a spiritual and emotional
journey. His experiences in the New World are
revealed in the four expansive movements of
the Ninth Symphony — featuring everything
from the thrill of a wild new country and its var-
ied peoples to intense longing for his beloved
Czech homeland. Guest conductor Herbert
Blomstedt opens the program with one of
Mozart’s most popular and classically-refi ned
symphonies.
