The invention of the piston and rotary valve by Stolzel and Bluhmel, both Silesians, in 1815, was the first in a series of innovations, including the development of modern keywork for the flute by Theobald Boehm and the innovations of Adolphe Sax in the woodwinds. brazil tours

The Fresno Philharmonic presents Holiday Jubilee with Maestro Theodore Kuchar, guest conductors Julie Dana and Dr. Anna Hamre, CSUF Concert Choir, CSUF Percussion Ensemble, Fresno City College Symphonic Choir, Fresno Community Chorus, and members of Bach’s Boy Choir on Saturday, December 1 at 8:00pm and Sunday, December 2 at 2:30pm in the William Saroyan Theatre. Van Beurden Insurance Services, Inc., AARLA, KRM, Bonner Family Foundation, The John and Bertha Garabedian Charitable Foundation, and John and Vicky Seasholtz sponsor this annual holiday concert. Patrons are encouraged to arrive early to enjoy lobby entertainment by hand bell choir, Pacific Bronze of Fresno Pacific University, an art exhibit by, Jim Veal. Patrons may also have their holiday portrait taken before the show by professional photographer, Grant Aaron Rogers, and pick them up before they leave. Holiday Jubilee tickets range from $24 to $59 and may be purchased online at fresnophil.org or by phone at 559-261-0600.
Concert highlights include a traditional Nigerian carol accompanied by the CSUF Percussion Ensemble, excerpts from Tchaikovsky’s The Snowmaiden and The Nutcracker, as well as an interactive sing along of familiar holiday favorites. Simply stated, Holiday Jubilee is a symphonic conception of holiday music from around the world. “I felt it was necessary to collaborate with as many people and organizations in the region as possible,” Theodore Kuchar, Music Director of the Fresno Philharmonic says, “The concept of the Holiday Concert was an innovation of nearly three hundred colleagues, which complement the Fresno Philharmonic in this extravaganza. Indeed, without the many hours of hard work and support of Dr. Anna Hamre and Julie Dana, this weekend would not be possible.”
As Director of Choral Activities at California State University Fresno, Dr. Anna Hamre is in demand as a conductor, clinician, and adjudicator. Julie Dana is Director of Choral Activities and Voice at Fresno City College where she conducts the City Singers, Symphonic Choir, Fresno Chorale and teaches Music Appreciation. Julie’s experience and commitment to the choral art often takes her beyond her daily teaching duties as she serves as Vice-President of the California American Choral Directors Association.
Under the baton of Music Director Theodore Kuchar, the Fresno Philharmonic has become one of the leading American regional orchestras, and has welcomed in recent years leading guest artists such as Itzhak Perlman, Sarah Chang, the Canadian Brass, and Lynn Harrell. In service to residents of the San Joaquin Valley, the Fresno Philharmonic strives to present great music that enriches lives, inspires passion for classical music, connects audiences to history, preserves tradition and celebrates creative genius.
