Lahav Shani conducts Tchaikovsky's Pathétique, a symphony that the composer premiered less than a week before his death and was later nicknamed for the passion and suffering it expresses. Daniil Trifonov takes the spotlight in a piano concerto composed for him by former CSO Mead Composer-in-Residence Mason Bates, which “shows off the pianist's virtuosity first and foremost, but also captures a listener's attention with jazzy rhythms, ear-catching tunes … and a number of big climaxes” (Seen and Heard International).

The World Health Organization calls for menstrual health to be recognized, framed, and addressed as a health and human rights issue, and that all menstruators should be able “to live, study, and work in an environment in which menstruation is seen as positive and healthy and not something to be ashamed of and to be able to participate in work and social activities fully.”    And FLOW echoes that call.     Program Notes:   Episode Links: Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970: https://www.osha.gov/laws-regs/oshact/completeoshact ADA, 1990: https://www.dol.gov/general/topic/disability/ada#:~:text=The%20Americans%20with%20Disabilities%20Act,local%20government'%20programs%20and%20services.

In his Second Symphony, Mahler constructs a universe all his own, exploring themes of death and afterlife using a massive orchestra, offstage brass and percussion, chorus and vocal soloists. Estonian conductor Neeme Järvi — whose music-making is “as dynamic and exhilarating as ever” (Chicago Classical Review) — guides the CSO from the great, tragic opening march, through pastoral dances and gentle songs to a final tableau of trumpet calls, percussive thunderbolts and the hymn of resurrection. Conductor Neeme Järvi replaces Esa-Pekka Salonen, who has withdrawn from these performances for personal reasons. Learn more: cso.org/performances/23-24/cso-classical/mahler-resurrection

[Program Note … During the off-season, a new episode of the podcast is posted every other Friday. In two weeks, however, CU will be conducting its Spring Game.

The Spring Game recap podcast will be up on the CU at the Game website on Sunday, April 28th, and available at your favorite podcast sites on Monday, April 29th]. While your Buffs have been engaged in the first few weeks of spring practices, Coach Prime has added three new players to the Recruiting Class of 2024. CU is bringing in two new cornerbacks and a very, very under-the-radar offensive lineman, coming to Boulder from the NFL Academy in England … by way of Austria and Egypt. CU has also added two new members to its coaching staff. Both have NFL experience and ties to Coach Prime, but it's the hiring of graduate assistant Warren Sapp which has created – at least in the mind of one local sportswriter – controversy in his hiring. Not willing to leave news on the field alone, we also discuss what news of note we have been able to filter out through the process stories which are all too commonplace this time of year. So … Is Coach Prime to be praised for bringing in freshman recruits to develop – after being criticized for not doing so on Signing Day? Or … Are these potentially wasted scholarships with the Transfer Portal about to reopen? … Is the hiring of Warren Sapp a coup, with CU's defensive line benefitting from the experience of a Hall-of-Famer? Or … Is the hire a disaster in the making from a former player who has a history of legal issues – and no coaching experience? … And … Are the stories we are hearing about promising true freshmen a sign of how much depth is being developed on the roster?

Beethoven's Seventh Symphony is treasured by generations of music fans for its whirling dance rhythms and majestic Allegretto movement. It finds an admirable interpreter in Czech conductor Petr Popelka, who “lets the music glow without overshadowing details” (Der Standard).

Framing the program are Dvořák's boisterous portrait of a street carnival and Brahms' noble and heart-rending Fourth Symphony.

Recently, I decided to do a 12-step program by myself. Many out there follow the general approach that Alcoholics Anonymous uses for addiction recovery. As part of the process, you write notes to those you want to forgive, ask forgiveness from, or just plain right a wrong that you feel about the relationship. It's not about making the relationship right, but rather more of a way of YOU deciding that you want to free your heart and mind toward personally developing regardless of how the other person feels about your changes. I've re-engaged in writing notes more frequently due to this process. It's hard, rewarding, and uncomfortable. But worth it. I've found other reasons to write notes and tell people about certain impressions that come to mind. If only because I've benefitted from others doing the same for me. #nudge #spiritualnudge #12steps #addictionarecovery #notewriting #letterwriting #gratitude #allboatsrisetogether #moveyourdesk #podcast #impressions #followingthenudge #followingtheimpressions #compliments #forgiveness
