Columbia University Orchestra Delivers Varied Concert
The Columbia University orchestra conducted by Howard Shanet presented a concert at McMillin Theater featuring early nineteenth century works. Opening with Gade Echoes of Ossian, the ensemble showed range but occasional intonation issues. Czerny four hands piano concerto with Genevieve Chinn and Hubert Doris impressed, while Spohr Motturno fell flat. Gounod Symphony No 1 concluded the program with improved intonation and notable woodwind solos. Shanet’s control was evident though the group’s lapses limited the performance’s vitality.

G&S double bill shines in spirited Citizen Opera outing
Anita Pitney praises Trail by Jury and The Pirates of Penzance staged by G&S. Ann Munroe guides Trial by Jury with strong choruses and good pacing. Robert Binder and Harold Albenberg charm as Plaintiff and Judge. Pirates has lively chorus work but uneven singing and stiffer acting at times. Maureen’s choreography elevates the police numbers and the finale remains joyful and crisp.
