Boulder, Colo.-- It’s been a year of amazing firsts for Boulder’s premiere chamber music ensemble, Boulder Chamber Orchestra (BCO). With three nearly sold-out concerts on record, the new arts organization plans to celebrate and wrap-up their successful inaugural season on May 6th, with an appropriately named event, “Seasons Finale,” featuring Vivaldi’s Four Seasons.

Indulge your senses as BCO brings new life to this well-loved classical composition that explores the seasons through imaginative melodies. “No matter how many times you’ve heard Four Seasons, seeing it live is like hearing it for the first time,” says BCO conductor and Music Director Bahman Saless. Local favorite, Gregory Walker will join the ensemble as their guest violin soloist.

To compliment the masterpiece, the orchestra will also be performing selections from Tchaikovsky’s famous suite, The Seasons.

As always, the event includes a complimentary reception, with goodies provided by local merchants such as Izze Beverage Company and others. BCO’s community-friendly atmosphere (and pricing) sets the orchestra apart from other classical groups in the area, and makes an evening of music as appealing as a spring day in Boulder.

Join BCO, for the conclusion of the 2004-05 Season, and a celebration of the seasons on May 6th at 7:30 pm, at Boulder’s First Baptist Church in downtown Boulder. Tickets start at $10, and are available online or at the door. Visit www.boulderchamberorchestra.org, or call (303) 583-1278 for more information or to purchase tickets.

What A Show!

On Friday night men and women, young and old, gathered at the First Baptist Church in Boulder to listen to the breathtaking music of the boulder chamber orchestra.

At the begining of the evening the church was filled with friends and family chattering about their days, but as the music started all fell silent. The orchestra played pieces composed by Antonio Vivaldi, Tomaso Albinoni, and Bach. Everyone seemed impressed at the talent of every member in the orchestra. And talented they are!

Bahman Saless, the conductor, made a joke during the performance when he said, "you probably won't ever see another orchestra anywhere with four doctorate physicists." The orchestra memebers are truly gifted.

At intermission every gathered in the reception room, and gobbled down cookies and tea. All were awaiting to see the second half of the show.

As the night came to end everyone applauded the orchestra and praised them for an exceptional performance, telling the members they will be back for more.

The boulder chamber orchestra is holding their next performance on March 11, 2005.
