From the GSO Historian

How Do You Like Them So Far?The 2015-2016 Season has been a transitional year for the Genesee Symphony Orchestra. Replacing a long-time conductor is never easy, but we are nearly there. We have seen the artistic exuberance of S. Shade Zajak directing music from around the world; the accomplished Yunn-Shan Ma with the glorious holiday feast; the heart pounding flutes and flourishes under the expert direction of Nicholas DelBello. Next, experience an All-American program created by the talented Bryan Eckenrode.With the help of our audience and musician surveys, and recommendations from our selection committee, the GSO Board will choose one of these wonderful candidates to take the baton and lead the GSO into the future.                                                                                                                                                                        So sit back, relax, and enjoy our final concert of the season. Then think – Whom would you like to see as the successor to a long line of talented GSO conductors?                                                                                                                                                                                 Want to learn more about the Genesee Symphony Orchestra and its conductors?          Visit the memory books in the reference section of the Richmond Memorial Library or the permanent display at the Holland Land Office Museum where a complete list of the Symphony’s conductors is on display.                                                                                                                                                 ~Joanne Tumminello, GSO Historian
