Work Sample to support request to NYSCA for 2022 Organizational Support 

 

The following links to audio files are provided here for review by the NYSCA panel reviewing the request for funding. These recordings were made in 2017 as part of a commercially available CD--"The First Hundred Years"--that was a celebration of the orchestra's centennial anniversary. The concept of the album was to record works created in 1917 (the year of the orchestra's founding) along with a commissioned work created in 2017. The commissioned work was "Sylvan" by American composer Michael Torke, to celebrate of the woodland world of this orchestra located in the heart of the Adirondack mountains.
