Perspectives from the Executive Director
7Severance Hall 2012-13 7Severance Hall 2012-13
April 2013
At the end of March, The Cleveland Orchestra received a $10 million,
five-year grant from The Cleveland Foundation — the largest such
commitment to an arts organization in the Foundation’s history and
one of the largest gifts ever received by the Orchestra. We are deep-
ly grateful for this exceptional grant and for the confidence in the
Orchestra’s strategic direction that it represents. Over the past year,
the Foundation’s staff and board have rigorously assessed the Orchestra’s ongoing trans-
formation, and we sincerely appreciate their generous support of this important work.
The Cleveland Foundation grant is a testament to much more than the Orchestra’s
historical ranking among the world’s best — it is an extraordinary commitment to our
programming innovations and our active community engagement. Sweeping changes
at The Cleveland Orchestra have taken root in recent years and are starting to bear fruit.
These include our efforts to foster future audiences, to shape and focus our education
programs, and our work to build strong and meaningful working partnerships across the
Northeast Ohio community.
We are on target for a record-breaking season in ticket sales here at Severance Hall, in-
cluding a significant increase in the number of young people eagerly enjoying and ener-
gizing our regular classical concerts. These numbers are the direct result of strong mar-
keting programs (such as Student Advantage and Under18s Free) for our core symphonic
concerts and innovative programming changes (including the KeyBank Fridays@7 and
Celebrity series).
Our education and community programs are also scoring strong successes. Our long-
standing commitment to education was celebrated in March, including a unique
showcase concert featuring all our youth ensembles performing together with The
Cleveland Orchestra for the first time — a special event that was telecast on WVIZ. In
addition, we believe that the introduction of “Make Music!” as a focus and catalyst for
our ongoing work in music education will bring new understanding and energy to
these programs. New initiatives in the community include the Orchestra’s inaugural
neighborhood residency, “At Home in Gordon Square,” which unleashes a week filled
with free events and performances, May 11-17, as part of the vibrant renaissance of this
westside neighborhood.
Good news about The Cleveland Orchestra and Northeast Ohio will continue. The initial
stages of our Sound for the Centennial Campaign’s endowment and special fundraising
phases have been strong, as evidenced by The Cleveland Foundation’s generous gift
and by commitments from additional forward-looking organizations and individuals
(see pages 48-49). This Campaign spans the decade up to the Orchestra’s hundredth
birthday in 2018, and comprises all our fundraising efforts across the next five years.
With your support and enthusiasm, there will be more good news ahead — for The
Cleveland Orchestra and the entire Northeast Ohio 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
around the world, Th e Cleveland Orchestra sets standards of artistic excel-
lence, creative programming, and community engagement. Th e partnership
with Franz Welser-Möst, now in its eleventh season — and with a commit-
ment to the Orchestra’s centennial in 2018 — has moved the ensemble forward
with a series of new and ongoing initiatives, including:
the establishment of residencies around the world, fostering creative artistic
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);
expansion of education and community programs in Northeast Ohio to
make music an integral and regular part of everyday life for more people; the
2012-13 season includes the launch of an annual Neighborhood Residency pro-

fully staged performances of Tchaikovsky’s Th e Nutcracker.
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 acous-
tically 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.

great musical beasts. With Franz
Welser-Möst conducting, this music

On March 28, The Cleveland Foundation an-
nounced the awarding of a five-year, $10 million
grant to The Cleveland Orchestra in support of
the Orchestra’s recent and ongoing efforts to
attract a new, broader audience and to trans-
form itself for the future. Given as part of the
Orchestra’s Sound for the Centennial Campaign,
this unprecedented grant is the largest single
grant to an arts organization in the Foundation’s
99-year history.
“We are deeply grateful for the Cleveland
Foundation’s extraordinary grant and the con-
fidence in the Orchestra’s strategic direction
that it represents,” says Gary Hanson, executive
director of The Cleveland Orchestra. “Over the
past year, the foundation’s staff and board have
rigorously assessed the Orchestra’s ongoing
transformation and we sincerely appreciate their
generous commitment to our work.”
“Through the years, the Cleveland Foun-
dation has stepped up to provide significant
support to major Northeast Ohio institutions
at pivotal times,” remarked Ronald B. Richard,
president and chief executive officer of the Foun-
dation. “We intend that this grant will catalyze
additional leadership funding for the Orchestra’s
creative efforts in the community to make this
world-class institution accessible and enjoyable
to all of Greater Cleveland for years to come.”
The grant to the Orchestra was part of a
record $26.6 million in grants in the first quarter
of 2013 authorized by the Foundation’s board
of directors, including grants in support of core
neighborhood and youth initiatives, educa-
tional institutions, and efforts to create a vibrant
downtown. Established in 1914, the Cleveland
Foundation is the world’s first community foun-
dation and one of the largest today. Through the
generosity of donors, the foundation improves
the lives of Greater Clevelanders by building
community endowment, addressing needs
through grantmaking, and providing leadership
on vital issues.
Cleveland Foundation grants Orchestra $10 million Largest gift to an arts organization in Foundation’s history
is vote of confidence in The Cleveland Orchestra’s programming
innovations and community engagement across Northeast Ohio
“The Cleveland Foundation’s just-announced
$10 million grant to The Cleveland Orchestra —
the largest arts grant in the foundation’s history
— is a ringing vote of confidence in the future of
this treasured local institution and its pacesetting
innovations. . . . The grant is a welcome affirma-
tion that The Cleveland Orchestra will be making
beautiful music for another 100 years.”
—Cleveland Plain Dealer, March 28
The Cleveland Foundation has awarded The
Cleveland Orchestra a $10 million grant to
support its ongoing efforts to cultivate new
and broader audiences and to build a strong
endowment to sustain the nearly century-old
institution. The grant . . . is a demonstration of
the grantmaking organization’s confidence in
the strategic direction the orchestra is taking,
said Robert Eckardt, The Cleveland Foundation’s
executive vice president. . . . “It was time to step
up and provide a significant commitment to the
Orchestra as they work through the challenging
environment they find themselves in,” Mr. Eckardt
said. . . . “They are an important part of Cleve-
land’s brand, and it’s difficult to imagine Cleve-
land without a world-class orchestra.” . . . Gary
Hanson, the orchestra’s executive director, stated
that The Cleveland Foundation’s commitment . . .
adds “meaningful momentum” to the Orchestra’s
Sound for the Centennial fundraising campaign,
which runs through 2018 — the orchestra’s
100-year anniversary.

26 The Cleveland Orchestra
The Cleveland Orchestra has announced its
2013-14 season, with complete details and
renewal forms due to be mailed to all cur-
rent subscribers in the coming weeks. (For
the first time, series subscriptions can be re-
newed online through the Orchestra’s website
— complete instructions are included in each
subscriber’s mailed renewal package.)
Series packages for the season’s classi-
cal concerts are available through Severance
Hall Ticket Services as of the end of March.
Individual tickets to the season will go on sale
in late summer. Additional details about the
2013-14 season — including Celebrity Series,
Family Concert Series, PNC Musical Rainbows,
Holiday Concerts, and special presentations
— will be announced in the coming months.
For the 2013-14 season, Franz Welser-
Möst introduces a Fall Festival, pairing sym-
phonies by Beethoven and Shostakovich, and
an all-Brahms weekend with two programs
featuring works by Brahms, and also leads
semi-staged performances of Janáček’s The
Cunning Little Vixen. Guest artists returning to
Severance Hall include Leon Fleisher, Mitsuko
Uchida, Radu Lupu, and conductors Christoph
von Dohnányi, Pierre Boulez, and Herbert
Blomstedt. The Orchestra commemorates the
100th anniversary of the birth of Benjamin
Britten with performances of three of his ma-
jor works.
FRANZ WELSER-MÖST CONDUCTS
In his twelfth season as music director,
Franz Welser-Möst introduces a Fall Festival in
October, featuring symphonies by Beethoven
and Shostakovich in three programs.
Beethoven’s Symphonies Nos. 3, 4, and 5 are
paired with Shostakovich’s Nos. 6, 8, and 10.
In addition to conducting the performances at
Severance Hall, Welser-Möst will speak about
the program pairings in a special festival
preview. “The dream of freedom inspired the
founding of our society,” says Welser-Möst.
“Political and social freedom is presented so
emotionally and clearly in Beethoven’s music.
By listening to the music of Beethoven and
Shostakovich in juxtaposition, we can experi-
ence their ideas of freedom from different
eras, yet from today’s perspective.”
Franz Welser-Möst continues an empha-
sis on operatic and choral repertoire in the
2013-14 season, with the Cleveland premiere
performances of Janáček’s opera The Cunning
Little Vixen and performances of Beethoven’s
Mass in C major and Britten’s Spring Sympho-
ny. Soprano Martina Janková returns to per-
form the title role in The Cunning Little Vixen
in May 2014. The cast also includes bass-bari-
tone Alan Held and mezzo-sopranos Jennifer
Johnson Cano and Julie Boulianne.
The music of Brahms will be featured in
two programs led by Welser-Möst in January
2014. Each program features the Violin Con-

BOULEZ, DOHNÁNYI, AND BLOMSTEDT
Pierre Boulez returns to conduct two pro-
grams in February 2014. Schoenberg’s Verklärte
Nacht (“Transfigured Night”) opens the first
program, which also includes Bartók’s Violin
Concerto No. 2 with Nikolaj Znaider. The sec-
ond program features Debussy’s La Mer (“The
Sea”) and Prelude to the Afternoon of a Faun.
Christoph von Dohnányi, the Orchestra’s
music director laureate, returns to conduct an
all Schumann program with Symphonies Nos. 2
and 4, in March 2014.
Herbert Blomstedt makes his sixth set of
appearances at Severance Hall in April 2014,
leading performances of Dvořák’s Cello Con-
certo with Cleveland Orchestra principal cello
Mark Kosower paired with Tchaikovsky’s Sym-
phony No. 6 (“Pathétique”).
BENJAMIN BRITTEN COMMEMORATION
During the 2013-14 season, The Cleveland
Orchestra will mark the 100th anniversary com-
memoration of Benjamin Britten’s birth. Born
November 22, 1913, Britten is one of the most
celebrated and most performed British com-
posers. In March 2014, Franz Welser-Möst con-
ducts Britten’s Spring Symphony, a large work
with soloists and chorus that Britten described
as “a symphony not only dealing with the
Spring itself but with the progress of Winter to
Spring and the reawakening of the earth and
life which that means.”
In October 2013, Marek Janowski leads
performances of Britten’s Serenade for Tenor,
Horn, and Strings with soloists Matthew Po-
lenzani and Cleveland Orchestra principal horn
Richard King. The Serenade is a song cycle
about night, sleep, and death, with texts by six
British poets. And in May 2014, Janine Jansen
performs Britten’s Violin Concerto under the
direction of Vladimir Jurowski.
GLOBAL AMBASSADORS
Beyond the concert season at Severance
Hall, Franz Welser-Möst and The Cleveland Or-
chestra embark on their 13th international tour
together in November 2013. The tour launches
with a performance on the Great Performers
series at Lincoln Center in New York. In Europe,
the Orchestra will perform twelve concerts,
including a week-long residency at Vienna’s
Musikverein.

The George Gund Foundation awarded a
$3 million grant at its February board meeting
to support The Cleveland Orchestra’s Sound
for the Centennial Campaign. Pledged over six
years, the award honors the late George Gund
III, who was a trustee of the Musical Arts Asso-
ciation.
The Foundation’s commitment perma-
nently endows a new Fund for Artistic Excel-
lence in George Gund’s name, providing
immediate support for the Orchestra’s core
artistic programming for the community. “This
commitment to the Campaign not only cel-
ebrates George Gund’s legacy and leadership
at the Orchestra,” said David Abbott, the Foun-
dation’s executive director. “It also ensures that
one of our community’s most valuable assets
can continue to serve Northeast Ohio at the
George Gund Foundation supports Th e Cleveland Orchestra’s
“Sound for the Centennial Campaign” with $3 million gift
highest levels of artistic excellence.”
George Gund III was elected as an interna-
tional trustee in 1994 and served on the board
of the Musical Arts Association for 19 years. The
new gift is the largest gift made by the Gund
Foundation to The Cleveland Orchestra, and
ranks among the largest institutional leader-
ship commitments to the Sound for the Centen-
nial Campaign thus far, as well as among the
Foundation’s largest commitments to a cultural
organization in Northeast Ohio.
The Orchestra’s Sound for the Centennial
Campaign runs through the Orchestra’s centen-
nial in 2018 and will ensure that the Orchestra
can continue to thrive now and into the future
by building a signifi cant endowment and pro-
viding immediate support for artistic excellence
and community and education programs.

Cleveland Orchestra News
Chorus auditions announced for children,youth, and adult singers for Blossom and 2013-14 Spring audition dates for the choral groups
sponsored by The Cleveland Orchestra have
been announced. The auditions — for adults,
youth, and children — are for membership in
groups singing during the 2013 Blossom Music
Festival and the 2013-14 Season at Severance
Hall. Auditions will take place in May and June.
The Cleveland Orchestra Choruses embody a
long-standing commitment to choral music in
which community members of all ages have the
opportunity to participate.
The Cleveland Orchestra Children’s
Chorus is open to students in grades 6-8 and
directed by Ann Usher, and the Cleveland Or-
chestra Children’s Preparatory Chorus is open to
students in grades 5-8 and directed by Suzanne
Walters. Both groups are holding auditions on
May 20, June 3, and June 8. The Children’s Cho-
rus, formed in 1967, provides musical training in
vocal production and choral performance skills.
The Children’s Preparatory Chorus provides
children with initial choral experiences to which
younger singers may not have been exposed,
while establishing a solid foundation in vocal
production techniques.
To audition, children are asked to sing one
verse of “America” (My Country, ’Tis of Thee) with
piano accompaniment in the key of his or her
choice and one verse of “America the Beautiful”
(Oh beautiful, for spacious skies) without accom-
paniment in the key of D. Singing scales and
doing some rhythmic exercises may also be in-
cluded in the audition, for which an accompanist
is provided.
Students in grades 9-12 are welcome to
audition for the Cleveland Orchestra Youth
Chorus, directed by Lisa Wong, on May 4, June
1, or June 2. Created in 1991, the Youth Chorus
helps raise awareness of choral music-making
in the schools of Northeast Ohio and encour-
ages students to continue their choral activities
through college and into adulthood. The Youth
Chorus collaborates each season in performance
with the Cleveland Orchestra Youth Orchestra.
Youth Chorus audition requirements are to pre-
pare a piece from the OMEA Solo & Ensemble list,
or an equivalent classical solo piece; Broadway
or “pop” tunes are not acceptable. In addition
to the prepared piece, students will be asked to
sight-read and demonstrate their vocal range.
An accompanist is provided at the audition.
The Cleveland Orchestra Chorus is one of
the few professionally trained, all-volunteer cho-
ruses sponsored by a major American orchestra.
Coming from nearly fifty Northeast Ohio com-
munities, members of the Chorus perform with
The Cleveland Orchestra in subscription and
Christmas concerts each year. Previous choral
experience and sight-reading skills are required.
The Blossom Festival Chorus includes many
members of the Cleveland Orchestra Chorus
and other Northeast Ohio choral groups. It has
established itself as a permanent annual part of
the summertime Blossom Festival and has sung
in more than 100 concerts since its 1968 debut.
Both groups are directed by Robert Porco.
Auditions for the Cleveland Orchestra
Chorus and Blossom Festival Chorus will be held
May 20 and 21, by appointment only. Those
auditioning are asked to prepare two pieces
from the classical literature, one of which should
be in a foreign language. Each piece should be
approximately two minutes in length. Previous
choral experience and sight-reading skills are
required. An accompanist is provided at the
audition.
To schedule an audition, call the Chorus
Office at 216-231-7374, or send an email to
chorus@clevelandorchestra.com.

LEARNING MORE ABOUT THE MUSIC
The Cleveland Orchestra off ers a vari-
ety of options for learning more about
the music before each concert begins.
For each concert, the program book
includes program notes commenting
on and providing background about
the composer and his or her work
being performed that week, along
with biographies of the guest artists
and other information. You can read
these before the concert, at intermis-
sion, or afterward. (Program notes
are also posted ahead of time online
at clevelandorchestra.com, usually by
the Monday directly preceding the
concert.)
The Orchestra’s Music Study
Groups also provide a way of explor-
ing the music in more depth. These
classes, professionally led by Dr. Rose
Breckenridge, meet weekly in loca-
tions around Cleveland to explore the
music being played each week and the
stories behind the composers’ lives.
Free Concert Previews are pre-
sented one hour before most subscrip-
tion concerts throughout the season
at Severance Hall. The previews (see
listing at right) feature a variety of
speakers and guest artists speaking
or conversing about that weekend’s
program, and often include the op-
portunity for audience members to ask
questions.

Invention &LegacyT H E T H I R T Y- T WO Beethoven piano sonatas, the two-hundred-odd
Bach cantatas, Wagner’s Ring of the Nibelung operas — these stand
among the mighty legacies of classical music, works that lie at the heart
of Western civilization.
Mozart’s piano concertos belong indisputably in this company,
and although they are all the work of a young man who did not progress
from stage to stage as longer-lived composers did, they present an unri-
valed wealth of invention and feeling.
More consistent in style than his operas, more personal than his
symphonies, and more accessible than his chamber music, Mozart’s pi-
ano concertos — written across a period of eighteen years — have a fair
claim to represent the real Mozart.
With Mitsuko Uchida leading the Orchestra from the keyboard,
this weekend’s concerts feature two concertos from the richest period
of this composer’s highly productive life, the mid-1780s. Both are su-
perb specimens of his unequaled craft . So is the Divertimento in B-fl at
major, which heralds the sixteen-year-old composer’s emergence from
childhood to an adolescent maturity. For this piece for strings alone,
following 18th-century practice, Th e Cleveland Orchestra will perform
standing, led by Peter Otto from the front chair of fi rst violins.

B E T W E E N T H E B E G I N N I N G of 1784 and the end of 1786,
within a span of three years, Mozart composed a dozen piano
concertos. Th ere could be no clearer indication of his high
standing as a concert soloist in those years, nor of his intensely
rich creativity in a form that, at the time, was somewhat nar-
rowly circumscribed in terms of length and design, but which he
craft ed with an endless variety of detail. He was happy to keep
writing new works in the same genre, usually for himself to play,
and his invention showed no sign whatever of going stale.
Writing and playing piano concertos was his main occu-
pation at this time. Many Viennese thought of him then as a
star pianist rather than as a composer. He had not yet proved
himself, in their eyes, as an opera composer. When their appe-
tite for piano concertos declined, his career faltered. We have
to imagine his ever boyish personality delighting in the public
attention he received when playing his concertos, conducting
from the keyboard, admired by audience and orchestra, and
clearly mining depths of feeling in the music that belied the
superfi cial features of his behavior. But, of course, he was al-
ways ahead of his audience, wishing they understood the music
more profoundly, thinking about his next work, and longing
for offi cial recognition that might ease the uncertainties of the
musician’s life.
Some of his concertos were written for others to play, al-
ways young women. Th is concerto, No. 17, and an earlier one,
No. 14 in E-fl at major, were written for Barbara Ployer, daugh-
ter of the Vienna agent of the Salzburg court, Franz Cajetan
Ployer. She paid Mozart “handsomely” for the commission,
but when or if she played the fi rst performances is not known.
She certainly did perform this second of her concertos at her
father’s house in Döbling, just outside Vienna, on June 13, 1784,
for we know that Mozart proudly took the famous composer
Giovanni Paisiello along as his guest so that he could hear some
of Mozart’s works.
Th e concerto displays a delightful open-air breeziness,
clearly expressed in the fi rst movement’s opening theme and
in the elegant passagework that the piano eagerly off ers as soon
as it enters. However simple a theme may be at its fi rst appear-
ance, it will always lead to a parade of glittering fi ngerwork as

it approaches a big cadence, as it has to do at least twice in an
opening movement of this kind. (Notice the bold absence of
accompaniment in the fi rst bar — the melody has started in the
violins, but the other instruments are obliged to hold back.)
Th e elegant second movement puts the wind instruments
on display, as if in rivalry with the piano, and the third move-
ment opens as a series of variations on a nicely balanced, play-
ful theme. Th e fi nale’s fi rst three variations get more elaborate
one by one; the fourth is tortuous and chromatic, in the minor
mode, with, in compensation, a jubilant variation to follow,
which almost seems to beg for the trumpets and drums that
this concerto does not employ.
Rather than pursue his variations to the end, Mozart
closes with something like a scene from a comic opera, as if in
anticipation of Th e Marriage of Figaro, although he allows the
theme of the variations to make a teasing reappearance at the
very end.
When he played the solo part in his concertos himself,
Mozart normally did not bother to write out the solo cadenzas,
nor perhaps did he have time. He clearly enjoyed improvising
such things. When others played, he would usually write out
such parts for them. Th us, for this concerto we have authentic
cadenzas for the fi rst two movements — and also some less au-
thentic ones, which at a minimum date from the same period.
Th ese serve as useful models for today’s pianists if they choose
to provide their own cadenzas.—Hugh Macdonald © 2013

Mozart composed this piano concerto in G
major (later cataloged as K453 and designated
as No. 17) in the spring of 1784, completing it
on April 12. It was performed on June 13 of that
year, by Mozart’s pupil Babette Ployer; it may
have been played early that year, at a concert in
late April, with Mozart as soloist and conductor.
This concerto runs about 30 minutes in
performance. Mozart scored it for fl ute, 2
oboes, 2 bassoons, 2 horns, strings, and solo
piano. Mitsuko Uchida is performing Mozart’s
own cadenzas in this concerto.
The Cleveland Orchestra fi rst performed
this concerto in April 1948, with George Szell
conducting and Rudolf Serkin as soloist. Among
later performances, Peter Serkin (Rudolf’s son)
was the soloist with the Orchestra in Septem-
ber 1990 under the direction of Christoph von
Dohnányi. The most recent performances
were in November 2011 at Severance Hall, with
Jonathan Biss as soloist and Fabio Luisi
as conductor.

E A R LY I N 1772 , the sixteen-year-old Mozart composed three
short works for strings, which survive together in a single manu-
script and were cataloged in the 19th century as K136 through
K138. At the head of each piece, someone else later wrote the
title “Divertimento,” as good a title as any for such a clever,
appealing musical selection. Somewhere in the chronological
numbering of Mozart’s works compiled by Ludwig Ritter von
Köchel, the music ceases to be a child’s work and becomes a
man’s — and for many, the milestone is to be found at No. 136,
the fi rst of these three Divertimentos. We could probably live,
albeit regretfully, without the fi rst 135 works, but the 136th and
its two companion pieces are small masterpieces, perfect in
craft smanship and full of that intensely musical vitality that was
beginning to mark off Mozart as more than a child prodigy.
He had just returned from a long visit to Italy, where he
had composed a good deal and been abundantly admired. Th e
prospect of a successful career was still undimmed, although
the recent appointment of the unsympathetic Hieronymus von
Colloredo as archbishop of Salzburg was to cast a long shadow
over the next nine years.
Th ese three short works reveal little of Mozart’s real teen-
age heart, but they do tell us how perfectly he understood string
instruments. In performance, we should picture father Leopold
leading a group of string players from the fi rst violin desk at
the Salzburg court, while everyone talked noisily through the
music, undiverted by the Divertimento.
Th e second of the three works, K137, begins, unusually,
with the slow movement, and begins moreover with phrases
that sound more like the middle than the start of a movement.
All three movements are patterned in the same way, each a
compact sonata form, with both halves of each movement re-
peated. Th e tune that closes each half of the fi nal movement
has a folksy charm that reminds us that even at court the peas-
ants’ music has a place.
Much ink has been spilled in debating the issue of whether
these works are for string orchestra or for string quartet. Th e
original manuscript does not make it clear and they were not
published until some years aft er the composer’s death. Th e
ambiguity lies in the word “Basso” (rather than “Bassi”) for

What’s his name? Mozart was baptized as
Johannes Chrysostomus Wolf-
gangus Th eophilus Mozart. His
fi rst two baptismal names, Jo-
hannes Chrysostomus, represent
his saints’ names, following the
custom of the Roman Catholic
Church at the time. In practice,
his family called him Wolfgang.
Th eophilus comes from Greek
and can be rendered as “lover of
God” or “loved by God.” Amadeus is a Latin version of this
same name. Mozart most oft en signed his name as “Wolf-
gang Amadè Mozart,” saving Amadeus only as an occasional
joke. At the time of his death, scholars in all fi elds of learn-
ing were quite enamored of Latin naming and conventions
(this is the period of the classifi cation and cataloging of life
on earth into kingdom, phylum, class, order, family, genus,
species, etc.), and successfully “changed” his name to Ama-
deus. Only in recent years have we started remembering the
Amadè middle name he preferred.

T H E F I N A L C O N C E R T O from the series of fi ft een such works
that Mozart wrote between 1784 and 1786, No. 25 in modern
numbering, is in the key of C major and was completed on De-
cember 4, 1786. Only two days later, the composer completed a
new symphony in D major. We do not know whether Mozart
had a particular occasion in mind for the performance of these
works, but two days later the Vienna correspondent of a Hamburg
newspaper reported that “the famous composer Herr Mozart”
was preparing to travel in the coming New Year to London. “He
will go by way of Paris.” Such a trip (which never took place)
would certainly require new works in his luggage.
In fact he went not to London or Paris (his aging father
Leopold refused to babysit), but to present Th e Marriage of Fi-
garo to the citizens of Prague, who so loved the opera that they
immediately commissioned another masterpiece in the form
of Don Giovanni. While Mozart was there, the new symphony
was played on January 19, 1787, and so it has come down to his-
tory as the “Prague” Symphony. When — or even if — the new
piano concerto was played by the composer is not known.
Th e two works, concerto and symphony, had probably
taken shape on Mozart’s desk side by side. From his exhaus-
tive study of Mozart’s manuscripts, the British scholar Alan
Tyson was able to show that the fi rst six leaves (out of 55) of
the manuscript of the concerto were set down in the winter of
1784-85, nearly two years before the date of completion. So,
having buried his third child on November 17, 1786, and hav-
ing completed a piano trio one day later, Mozart must have
worked at incredible speed to fi nish the piano concerto as well
as a brand new symphony within a couple of weeks.
Firm, heroic C-major chords proclaim a majestic tone
for the fi rst movement. Mozart’s previous piano concerto had
been in C minor, with a somber and earnest tone that needed
to be dispelled in brighter major-key colors. So here the sun
seems to shine and the invention reposes on solid chords and
scales — with not too much of that expressive chromaticism
that Mozart could always turn to when he wished to plumb
the depths of feeling. Th e second principal tune, as simple as
a nursery song, switches playfully from minor to major.
By convention, the soloist will review the orchestra’s themes

Altogether, Mozart created more than thirty separate works for orchestra and piano. Although
a few were published during his lifetime, many did not become widely available until efforts
in the 19th century to organize, catalog, and publish the composer’s output. Ludwig von
Köchel reconstructed the chronology of Mozart’s compositions in the mid-19th century and
published his cataloging of Mozart’s works in 1862. Following Köchel’s chronology, the music
for Mozart’s complete works was published by Breitkopf & Härtel, with the piano concertos
numbered chronologically from 1 to 27.
The fi rst four numbered concertos are early works now known to be arrangements of key-
board sonatas by various other contemporary composers (including Raupach, Honauer, and
C.P.E. Bach). Not included in the list printed here are three additional concertos that Mozart
completed in 1772 from music by J.C. Bach.

About the Music
53Severance Hall 2012-13 About the Music
in a diff erent light, but Mozart instead replaces the nursery tune
with two new themes of much greater sophistication. For that
transgression, the opening movement’s development section —
usually a potpourri of tunes heard earlier — is confi ned entirely
to the nursery theme, heard in every possible key and every pos-
sible combination, and leading to a kind of marvelous fl owing
woodwind passages that Mozart particularly favored in his piano
concertos. Th e movement’s recapitulation section dutifully pres-
ents all the themes again, with no favorites. Th e composer, ex-
pecting to play the solo part himself, wrote down no cadenza.
Th e second-movement Andante’s melody is elegantly
shared by violins, fl ute, and the other winds. Th e piano enters
with the same melody, and a mood of unhurried serenity takes
over. Some wide leaps in the right hand are the only possible
disturbances of this quiet mood, never straying far from the
main key and the main melody.
Th e third-movement fi nale is a rondo of the playful type
favored in these concertos. Th e soloist repeatedly introduces
sprightly new ideas; the orchestra regularly brings back the
rondo theme. In one episode the piano leads off , then hands the
tune to the oboe, then to the fl ute, then to oboe and bassoon,
and the woodwinds draw each other in as if to a gathering of
like-minded friends. It is no wonder that wind players have
such a fondness for Mozart’s piano concertos. Th e solo part is
full of virtuoso fi guration, and it keeps pressing up against the
high F, which was the top note on Mozart’s piano. Yet there is
never any sense that Mozart was fi ghting against the resources
he had available to him; he matched means to ends in a balance
that no other composer ever achieved.

Mozart completed this C-major
concerto in Vienna on Decem -

concert season, during which it was
most likely fi rst performed, with the
composer as soloist. An exact date
has not been established.
This concerto runs about 30
minutes in performance. Mozart
scored it for fl ute, 2 oboes, 2 bas-
soons, 2 horns, 2 trumpets, timpani,
and strings, plus the solo piano.
Mitsuko Uchida is performing her
own cadenzas in this concerto.
The Cleveland Orchestra fi rst
performed Mozart’s Piano Con-
certo No. 25 in February 1951, when
Rudolf Serkin played the piano un-
der George Szell’s direction. (Szell
played a role in re-establishing this
concerto into the general reper-
toire, from which it had lapsed in
the 19th century. In 1934, Szell led
what appears to have been the fi rst
performance of this concerto in
Vienna since the composer’s death,
with soloist Artur Schnabel.) The
Cleveland Orchestra’s most recent
performance was during the 2011
Blossom Festival, when Hans Graf
conducted and Jeff rey Kahane was
the soloist.

Mitsuko UchidaMitsuko Uchida’s interpretations of a wide range of reper-
toire have gained her a formidable reputation as a pianist
who brings intellectual acuity and musical insight to her
performances. She is particularly noted for her interpreta-
tions of Mozart, Beethoven, and Schubert, both in the con-
cert hall and on CD, but has also illuminated the music of
Berg, Schoenberg, Webern, and Boulez, for a new generation
of listeners.
Ms. Uchida made her Cleveland Orchestra debut in
February 1990, and since that time has performed with the
Orchestra at Severance Hall, at its annual Blossom Festival,
and on tour in Europe and Japan. She made her Cleveland
Orchestra conducting debut in March 1998, and subsequent-
ly led performances from the keyboard of all of Mozart’s solo piano concertos as
artist-in-residence across fi ve seasons (2002-07). Her most recent appearances with
the Orchestra in Cleveland were for performances in April 2012, leading Mozart
piano concertos from the keyboard. In February 2011, she performed in a special
solo benefi t concert at Severance Hall to raise funds to support the ongoing main-
tenance of Th e Cleveland Orchestra’s pianos. In the autumn of 2010, she travelled
to Asia for performances with the Orchestra in Japan. A year earlier, she appeared
as soloist during the Orchestra’s 2009 European Tour and Vienna Musikverein
Residency with Franz Welser-Möst.
Mitsuko Uchida performs throughout the world with many diff erent part-
ners. In addition to playing with Th e Cleveland Orchestra, recent and upcoming
highlights include a new series of the fi ve Beethoven piano concertos (spanning
two seasons) with the London Symphony Orchestra and Colin Davis, performanc-
es with the Chicago Symphony Orchestra and with Amsterdam’s Royal Concert-
gebouw Orchestra, a series of concerts in Spain and Portugal with the Mahler
Chamber Orchestra, and performances in Japan with the Hagen Quartet and with
soprano Magdalena Kožená across Europe. Ms. Uchida was featured in the Am-
sterdam Concertgebouw’s Carte Blanche series, with the same programs also form-
ing the core of series in Cologne and London. In addition, she was the focus of a
Carnegie Hall “Perspectives” series titled Mitsuko Uchida: Vienna Revisited. In
February 2010, she performed all fi ve Beethoven piano concertos with conductor
Simon Rattle during a month-long residency with the Berlin Philharmonic.
Mitsuko Uchida records exclusively for Decca. In April 2008, BBC Music
Magazine presented its Instrumentalist of the Year and Disc of the Year awards to Ms.
Uchida. Her recording of Schoenberg’s Piano Concerto with Pierre Boulez and Th e
Cleveland Orchestra won four awards, including one from Gramophone for best con-
certo recording. Th ree of her most recent recordings were recorded live at Severance
56 The Cleveland OrchestraGuest Artist
Hall with Th e Cleveland Orchestra and feature six of Mozart’s piano concertos. Th e
album featuring concertos Nos. 23 and 24 received a Grammy Award in 2011 for
“best instrumental soloist with an orchestra.” Plans call for her to record the concer-
tos on this weekend’s concerts with Th e Cleveland Orchestra in the future.
Ms. Uchida’s discography also includes the complete Mozart piano sona-
tas and piano concertos (with the English Chamber Orchestra), the complete
Schubert piano sonatas, Debussy’s Etudes, the fi ve Beethoven piano concer-
tos with Kurt Sanderling, a CD of Mozart violin sonatas with Mark Steinberg,
the song cycle Die Schöne Müllerin with Ian Bostridge for EMI, the fi nal fi ve
Beethoven piano sonatas, and a 2008 recording of Berg’s Chamber Concerto with
the Ensemble Intercontemporain, Pierre Boulez, and Christian Tetzlaff .
Mitsuko Uchida has demonstrated a long-standing commitment to aiding
the development of young musicians and is a trustee of the Borletti-Buitoni Trust.
She is also co-director, with Richard Goode, of the Marlboro Music Festival in
Vermont. In June 2009, she was made a Dame Commander of the Order of the
British Empire.
Mitsuko Uchida will sign compact discs after the concerts on Thursday and Friday evenings in the Lerner Lobby at the Cleveland Orchestra Store on the ground fl oor of Severance Hall. A selection of her albums areavailable for sale through the Cleveland Orchestra Store.

Meet Nancy Dotson Cleveland Orchestra Heritage Society member, former State Chair of the Blossom Women’s Committee, and Heritage Society radio ambassador on WCLV
When did you begin attending Cleveland Orchestra concerts?Dick and I have lived in the area for 33 years and have
been attending concerts for most of those years.
What is your favorite concert experiencewith The Cleveland Orchestra?
Without a doubt, we will never forget the concert at Sever-
ance Hall several years ago with Sir Colin Davis and Mit-
suko Uchida and the Mozart Piano Concerto. Sitting in the
dress circle and seeing the interaction of these two icons and
Th e Cleveland Orchestra is something I will never forget.
What is your favorite memory of The Cleve-land Orchestra or Blossom Festival?
Dick and I have so many wonderful memories of Blossom
and Severance Hall. Living in Hudson and only 20 minutes from Blossom,
our summer revolves around the lyrical weekend evenings at Blossom. Sitting on
the Lawn with a glass of wine under the stars is our idea of a perfect date! Meeting
various members of Th e Cleveland Orchestra at the summer Gourmet Matinee
Luncheons or the Orchestra Picnic sponsored by the Blossom Women’s Committee
have also been special treats.
What reason do you suggest when extending an invitation to join the Heritage Society?
It is a very special privilege to have Th e Cleveland Orchestra so readily accessible
and convenient to attend. It is for these reasons that we made a decision to include
the Orchestra in our estate planning several years ago. Leaving a legacy for future
generations to enjoy this music and for the musicians to carry on the music is some-
thing we are happy we can do.

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.

In 1717, England’s King George was suf-
fering in the polls. His political advisors
suggested that he do something big to
get the people behind him. They came up
with the idea of a summer boating party
on the Thames, for which Handel wrote the
music. Arguably the most popular piece of
Baroque music today, Water Music makes
fashionable use of the dance forms popular
at the time, combining festivity and finesse.

performed hit songs all over the world — and
is considered one of the most stunning inter-
preters of song onstage today. In a tribute to
jazz giants Ella Fitzgerald and Duke Ellington.

program featuring songs from Austin’s Grammy-
nominated album For Ella, including such favor-
ites as “I’ve Got You Under My Skin,” “I Only Have

Carl Orff’s joyous Carmina Burana bursts forth
like a boisterous street festival — filled 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 evening opens with a concerto
by J.S. Bach, for oboe d’amore.
