SYRACUSE UNIVERSITY ORATORIO SOCIETY | chorus

Founded in 1975, the Syracuse University Oratorio Society is a large chorus comprised of Syracuse University students and community members that regularly performs choral-orchestral masterworks with the Syracuse Orchestra. The Oratorio Society has been directed by John Warren, professor of music and director of choral activities, since 2011.

LAWRENCE LOH | conductor

Described as bringing an “artisan storyteller’s sensitivity… shaping passages with clarity and power via beautifully sculpted dynamics… revealing orchestral character not seen or heard before” (Arts Knoxville) Lawrence Loh enjoys a dynamic career as a conductor of orchestras all over the world.

After an extensive two ...

After an extensive two year search, Lawrence Loh was recently named Music Director of the Waco Symphony Orchestra beginning in the Spring of 2024. Since 2015, he has served as Music Director of The Syracuse Orchestra (formerly called Symphoria), the successor to the Syracuse Symphony Orchestra. “The connection between the organization and its audience is one of the qualities that’s come to define Syracuse’s symphony as it wraps up its 10th season, a milestone that might have seemed impossible at the beginning,” (Syracuse.com) The Syracuse Orchestra and Lawrence Loh show that it is possible to create a “new, more sustainable artistic institution from the ground up.”

Appointed Assistant Conductor of the Pittsburgh Symphony in 2005, Mr Loh was quickly promoted to Associate and Resident Conductor within the first three years of working with the PSO. Always a favorite among Pittsburgh audiences, Loh returns frequently to his adopted city to conduct the PSO in a variety of concerts. Mr. Loh previously served as Music Director of the West Virginia Symphony Orchestra, Music Director of the Northeastern Pennsylvania Philharmonic, Artistic Director and Principal Conductor of the Syracuse Opera, Music Director of the Pittsburgh Youth Symphony Orchestra, Associate Conductor of the Dallas Symphony Orchestra, Associate Conductor of the Colorado Symphony Orchestra and Music Director of the Denver Young Artists Orchestra.

Mr. Loh’s recent guest conducting engagements include the San Francisco Symphony, Dallas Symphony, North Carolina Symphony, Baltimore Symphony, Sarasota Orchestra, Florida Orchestra, Pensacola Symphony, Atlanta Symphony, National Symphony, Detroit Symphony, San Diego Symphony, Seattle Symphony, National Symphony (D.C.), Utah Symphony, Rochester Philharmonic, Indianapolis Symphony, Calgary Philharmonic, Buffalo Philharmonic, Albany Symphony and the Cathedral Choral Society at the Washington National Cathedral. His summer appearances include the festivals of Grant Park, Boston University Tanglewood Institute, Tanglewood with the Boston Pops, Chautauqua, Sun Valley, Shippensburg, Bravo Vail Valley, the Kinhaven Music School and the Performing Arts Institute (PA).

As a self-described “Star Wars geek” and film music enthusiast, Loh has conducted numerous sold-out John Williams and film music tribute concerts. Part of his appeal is his ability to serve as both host and conductor. “It is his enthusiasm for Williams’ music and the films for which it was written that is Loh’s great strength in this program. A fan’s enthusiasm drives his performances in broad strokes and details and fills his speaking to the audience with irresistible appeal. He used no cue cards. One felt he could speak at filibuster length on Williams’ music.” (Pittsburgh Tribune)

Mr Loh has assisted John Williams on multiple occasions and has worked with a wide range of pops artists from Chris Botti and Ann Hampton Callaway to Jason Alexander and Idina Menzel. As one of the most requested conductors for conducting Films in Concert, Loh has led Black Panther, Star Wars (Episodes 4-6), Jaws, Nightmare Before Christmas, Jurassic Park, Casablanca, The Wizard of Oz and Singin’ in the Rain, among other film productions.

Lawrence Loh received his Artist Diploma in Orchestral Conducting from Yale, his Masters in Choral Conducting from Indiana University and his Bachelor of Arts from the University of Rochester. Lawrence Loh was born in southern California of Korean parentage and raised in Carlisle, Pennsylvania. He and his wife Jennifer have a son, Charlie, and a daughter, Hilary.

Program Notes

Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart (1756-1791) lived a short life—but the range of his style was nearly as great as the depth of his imagination, and tonight we juxtapose one of his brightest, most buoyant symphonies with two works that stand among his darkest and most profound.

The Symphony No. 29 (K. 201/186a, 1774), in the sunlit key of A major, may be the work of a teenager, but it’s a remarkably sophisticated one—and its sheer confidence may explain why it has become the most popular of Mozart’s early symphonies. Written in the wake of a trip to Vienna, where Mozart was energized by a strong jolt of new music, it shows the young composer fusing that exhilarating experience with his earlier influences to produce something original. Original—and arresting: the opening themes of both the first and last movements include striking octave leaps, and one can imagine the young composer flexing his muscles and challenging his imagination. He challenged his players, too. “It’s tremendously difficult for the orchestra,” says conductor Larry Loh, “with really high parts for the horns. There’s something about the sound of the high horn that gives it an exciting, on-the-edge feeling.”

If the Symphony No. 29 shows the young composer at his brightest, the Requiem shows Mozart at his darkest. Even the instrumentation is dark, with the elimination of flutes and horns, and the inclusion of basset horns (darker cousins of the clarinet), which, in Larry’s words, “add great color and depth to the winds.” It also reveals Mozart at his most serious and most dramatic, with elaborate Bach-inspired counterpoint and overwhelming choruses.

Mozart died before he could complete it. In fact, at tonight’s performance, Larry will take a brief pause after the last measure that Mozart composed, the eighth measure of the Lacrimosa—what Larry calls “one of the most poignant and expressive things he ever wrote.” Just as Tchaikovsky’s gloomy Sixth Symphony took on a rich mythology because he composed it right before his unexpected death, so the concurrence of Mozart’s unfinished Requiem and his own early death has encouraged all sorts of rumors about ghostly portents —and even persistent conspiracy theories that he was poisoned. (This mythology has been most memorably dramatized in Pushkin’s 1830 Mozart and Salieri and in Peter Shaffer’s play and film Amadeus.)

Granted, there is a strange story behind the work, but it centers more on plagiarism than on poison. In July 1791, Mozart was approached by a go-between for an anonymous donor who wanted to commission a Requiem. That donor was Count Franz von Walsegg, a wealthy amateur who had the habit of commissioning works from professional composers and passing them off as his own. In any case, Mozart was initially motivated to accept the job by the perennial need for cash rather than by any premonition of his death. In fact, while the Requiem project sat unfulfilled, Mozart, an inveterate multitasker, was also working on a number of other pieces, including the radiant Clarinet Concerto. If Mozart ever really felt that this was his own Requiem (as some sources have claimed), it was only toward the very end of his life, months after the piece had been commissioned.

Still, whatever the misleading mythology, Mozart’s death did bring up real editorial problems, first for his wife Constanze, then for modern performers. With the financial standing of his family increasingly desperate, Constanze had to find someone to finish the work. Eventually she settled on Mozart’s student and copyist, Franz Xaver Süssmayr (1766-1803). Had Mozart shared ideas about the unfinished portions of the Requiem with Süssmayr? We may never know, but in any case, Süssmayr rose to the occasion (surely, the only music by him in the repertoire is his contribution to this work). The sections he composed fit in well, and he had the judgment to end the piece by bringing back music from the beginning of the work, thus rounding out the Requiem with authentic Mozart. Over the years, dozens of others have tried their hand at more “scholarly” reconstructions, but none have really caught on. For most listeners, the Süssmayr edition is “the” Mozart Requiem, and that’s the one we’ll be hearing tonight.

What kind of performance can we expect? Larry thinks of himself primarily as an instrumentalist rather than a singer. Still, he first performed this piece as a high schooler, singing in a chorus during the summer (at a time when he was too young to appreciate its depth); and his first degree was in choral conducting. This background in choral music has affected the way he conducts. “I have always approached every instrument in the way I would approach the human voice, so it seems like something that is literally speaking. You need breath, you need accent, you need emphasis and context in the line to bring out some syllable or a word.” That’s true in orchestral music; it’s even truer in works for chorus and orchestra; and it’s especially true here, where Mozart has been so careful with his setting of the text. “I think of the orchestra as conveying the words the same way the chorus does. If we’re all thinking the same way, I hope that the words come alive with the orchestra in the same way that they do with the chorus.”

To open the concert, we have another somber work, the brief Masonic Funeral Music, K. 477, written in 1785. The Freemasons were, at various points during Mozart’s lifetime, either banned or closely regulated by the powers that be—but Mozart was a serious member, and numbered many other Masons among his close friends. His opera The Magic Flute is firmly grounded in Masonic beliefs and rituals, but he wrote a fair amount of other music influenced by their moral and spiritual principles, too, including this one.

The Funeral Music started out as a work for chorus and orchestra (now lost, although various musicians have tried to reconstruct it), re-emerging as an orchestral work for two oboes, clarinet, basset horn, two horns, and strings, and further revised into its current version, which adds two more basset horns and contrabassoon. For practical reasons, it’s often performed with the Requiem: once you’ve gathered up some basset horns, you might as well take advantage of them. But there are aesthetic reasons for pairing these pieces as well: although the Funeral Music doesn’t have the kind of Bach-inspired counterpoint we hear in the Requiem, the two works share a tonal darkness and a seriousness of purpose. Lasting around five minutes, the Funeral Music is a somber processional—based on a liturgical melody tied to a text from Lamentations of Jeremiah—with an introduction and a coda, thematically linked. Although anchored in C Minor, it ends with a comforting glow of C Major light, perhaps reflecting Mozart’s belief (as he put it in a letter to his father) in “the peace and consolation” of death. It makes a powerful introduction to the evening.

Requiem aeternum dona eis, Domine, et Lux perpetua luceat eis,	Let eternal light shine on them, Lord, as with Your saints in eternity, because You are merciful. Grant them eternal rest, Lord, and let perpetual light shine on them,
Cum sanctis tuis
Cum Sanctus tuis in aeternum, quia pius es.	As with Your saints in eternity, because You are merciful.
