Directed by well known conductor Daniel Warren, the orchestra@uwaterloo draws members from all six faculties of the University.
All three featured composers (Mahler, Wagner, & Dvorak) are associated with the Romantic period in Western classical music, which emphasized emotional expression, expanded orchestration, and often drew on nationalistic or philosophical themes.
Wagner Overture to Die Meistersinger
Mahler, Adagietto from Symphony no. 5
Dvorak, Symphony no. 6
Special guest harpist Daniella Kistemaker will join the orchestra for the Mahler piece, which is scored for strings and harp only, giving it an ethereal and intimate sound.
