It’s hard to believe, but 2009-2010 will be my 20th season with the Nittany Valley Symphony. Time has passed so quickly! I’ve thoroughly enjoyed the past two decades of making music in Happy Valley and cherish the many friendships I’ve made within the orchestra family. During my tenure, the orchestra and I performed well over 400 works in over 100 performances, and I’ve observed how much the orchestra and our audience have developed over the years. Such reflections as these—of time, commemoration and change—were the inspiration for the theme of next season: Musical Stages.
