Welcome to tonights Denver Philharmonic Orchestra concert! With all the events, theatre, music and festivals that Denver has to offer, were honored you are spending your evening with us.
We hope to create a wonderful memory and feeling that stays
with you long after the music has ended, and sometimes even
before the music has begun.
Tonight, Ill be thinking about wise words from Henry David
Thoreau, who said, When I hear music, I fear no danger. I am
invulnerable. I see no foe. I am related to the earliest times,
and to the latest. Thoreau must have been to a DPO concert!
Listening to our passionate musicians fill this hall with music, we
hope that you see no foe, but instead find opportunities to
meet your neighbors, mingle with musicians, and take part in
the community offerings hosted by the DPO all season long!
Please, sit back, relax, silence (but do not put away) your phone
and experience the music! If you have any questions, or would
like to share your personal DPO story, please feel free to talk
with us: look for anyone with a blue name tag, or come and find
me we love getting to know all of you, and hope you will
continue to make the Denver Philharmonic Orchestra a part of
your story now and in the future!
DEAR FRIENDS,
Sincerely,
Jon Olafson
President of the Board, DPO
Happy Holidays!
We are so happy to
see you here tonight
with our DPO family!

JOY TO THE WORLDARR. BY MACK WILBERGThe familiar words to this holiday classic
were written in the early 1700s by re-
nowned hymn writer Isaac Watts. More
than a century later, Lowell Mason adapt-
ed and arranged music, likely Handels
Messiah, for Watts celebratory hymn. In
fact, it was the recitative Comfort Ye that
lent its sound to this festive piece.
Run time: 3 minutes
MASTERS IN THIS HALLARR. BY MARK HAYES In this lesser-known traditional carol, lyricist
William Morris describes the story of a poor
man sharing news of Christs birth with the
wealthy Masters in this Hall. The lyrics,
written in a distinctive rural dialect, are
set to a traditional French dance from the
opera Alcyone by Marin Marais.
Run time: 4 minutes

Christmas, the concerto is structured as a
traditional sonata da chiesa, or church so-
nata, but instead of only four movements,
Corelli wrote six! Tonight, we will hear the
first, fourth and fifth movements.
Run Time: 8 minutes
O HOLY NIGHTARR. BY DAN GOELLEROn December 24, 1906, the radio waves,
which had only ever transmitted Morse
code, carried the sound of a violin playing
O Holy Night, making it the first song
ever broadcast on AM Radio! An enduring
carol, its story begins in France, when poet
Placide Cappeau was commissioned to
write a new work for Christmas mass in
1847. Cappeau then reached out to friend
and composer, Adolphe Adams, to set the
poem to music. It was an immediate hit!
Years later, after discovering that Cappeau
had joined the socialist movement and
Adams was not of Christian faith, the
church attempted to ban the song.
Despite the ban, the song was sung
whole-heartedly in France, and later made
its way into the American Christmas canon
after translation by Unitarian minister, John
Sullivan Dwight.
Run time: 6 minutes
I KNOW THAT MY REDEEMER LIVETH & HALLELUJAH CHORUS FROM MESSIAHGEORGE FRIDERIC HANDELOriginally an Easter Offering, Handels
Messiah is now recognizable as a mainstay
in the Christmas repertoire. In this piece,
unlike other oratorios by Handel, the
chorus propels the work forward with great
emotional impact and uplifting messages,
says Laurence Cummings, director of the
London Handel Orchestra. In fact, it is
rumored that King George II of England

guests in his presence to rise to their feet,

TREPAK, DANCE OF THE SUGAR PLUM FAIRY & IN THE CHRISTMAS TREE FROM THE NUTCRACKERPYOTR ILYICH TCHAIKOVSKYCommissioned in 1891 by choreographer
Marius Petipa, The Nutcracker ballet pre-
miered in December of the following year.
One of the most identifiable sounds within
the work is the celeste, featured in Dance
of the Sugar Plum Fairy. Invented in 1896,
Tchaikovsky first heard the instrument
in Paris and quickly requested one for
himself, hoping to be the first composer
to feature the new instrument within a
full symphony. Indeed, upon hearing the
unmistakable tinkling celeste, listeners
around the globe conjure up images of
the delicate Sugar Plum Fairy as she pirou-
ettes en pointe.
Run time: 9 minutes
SLEIGH RIDELEROY ANDERSONJust hear those sleigh bells jingling in
Leroy Andersons musical depiction of
the wonderful wintery season. Percussion
and brass are featured playfully in this
popular piece to create the sensation of
horse steps on cobblestone, a coachmans
whip, and the whinnying of the horse itself.
Giddy up!

Let there be Peace on Earth, and let it
begin with me. This simple message

world premiere of its new arrangement,
and hope that our hearts are filled with its
tidings of peace for all mankind!

FROSTY THE SNOWMANFrosty the Snowman
Was a jolly happy soul
With a corncob pipe and a button nose
And two eyes made out of coal
Frosty the Snowman
Is a fairytale they say
He was made of snow
But the children know
How he came to life one day
There must have been some magic
In that old silk hat they found
For when they placed it on his head
He began to dance around. Oh,
Frosty the Snowman
Had to hurry on his way
But he waved goodbye
Saying dont you cry
Ill be back again some day
Thumpety thump thump
Thumpety thump thump
Look at Frosty go
Thumpety thump thump
Thumpety thump thump
Over the hills of snow
JOY TO THE WORLD!Joy to the world! the Lord is come;
Let earth receive her King;
Let every heart
prepare him room,
And heaven and nature sing,
And heaven and nature sing,
And heaven, and heaven, and nature sing.
Joy to the Earth! the Saviour reigns;
Let men their songs employ;
While fields and floods,
rocks, hills, and plains
Repeat the sounding joy,
Repeat the sounding joy,
Repeat, repeat the sounding joy.
WE WISH YOU A MERRY CHRISTMASWe wish you a Merry Christmas;
We wish you a Merry Christmas;
We wish you a Merry Christmas
and a Happy New Year.
REFRAIN:
Good tidings we bring to you and your kin;
Good tidings for Christmas
and a Happy New Year.
We wish you a Merry Christmas;
We wish you a Merry Christmas;
We wish you a Merry Christmas
and a Happy New Year.

CONCERT ETIQUETT E
BE COMFORTABLETheres no dress code. From jeans to
suits, youll see it all! Wear what youd
like youll fit in. We love you just the
way you are.
COUGHINGAhem Try to bury your cough in a loud
passage of music. If you cant, or you
begin to cough a lot, dont worry its
perfectly acceptable and appropriate to
quietly exit the concert hall. Remember to
unwrap cough drops before the concert so
you dont create crackling noises.
APPLAUSE 101In earlier times, audiences would routinely
applaud between movements to show
their joy for the music they just heard.
Then around the mid-19th century, it
became tradition to wait until the end of
the piece to clap, with the audience sitting
silent between movements.
At the DPO, we welcome both traditions.
If you prefer to wait for the end of a piece
to clap, please do. Some movements are
fiery and end in such a flare that you may
feel compelled to clap go for it! After
a quiet movement, you may want to enjoy
the feeling of transfixion and wait; theres
no need to applaud if youre not feelin it.
Regardless, we want you to feel comfort-
able and focus on the performance, not
confusing applause rules!
If you are attending your first (or 300th) classical music concert, below are some frequently asked questions to help make your experience more enjoyable.

CONCERT ETIQUETT E
SIT TIGHTThe rumors are true were pretty
informal. But we do ask that you sit tight
and quiet during the performance and
only get up between pieces or during in-
termission as to not distract the musicians
or concert-goers around you.
PACK IT IN, PACK IT OUTYoure welcome to bring a water bottle
into the hall, but remember Trail Rules
pack it in, pack it out. (This goes for
trash too!)
ELECTRONICSPlease turn the sound off on your cell
phones, pagers, and any other noise-
making device, including vibrate mode.
