CCM Orchestral + JAZZ Series Presents
7:30 p.m. Saturday, April 20, 2024, Corbett Auditorium
Mark Gibson, music director and conductor
Featuring student artist Diana Chubak, piano
Scott Belck, music director
CCM's ticketed collegiate concert season concludes with a long-awaited reunion of the CCM Philharmonia and CCM Jazz Orchestra. The performance begins with Gershwin’s Concerto in F, featuring student artist Diana Chubak, winner of the CCM piano concerto competition. Then the award-winning CCM Jazz Orchestra joins the Philharmonia on stage for the grand finale: a performance of jazz legend Wynton Marsalis’ Symphony No. 3, “Swing Symphony.”
Chubak is a student of Professor Michael Chertock.
The CCM Philharmonia, under the direction of Professor and CCM Director of Orchestral Studies Mark Gibson, is recognized as one of the world’s elite conservatory orchestras. The breadth of each season’s concert series rivals many of the world’s great performing organizations, and the Philharmonia presents a body of repertoire that encompasses more than what most conservatories venture to program. The close bond between the Cincinnati Symphony Orchestra and CCM’s orchestral program invigorates student conductors and instrumentalists alike, and CCM’s commitment to high standards enriches the cultural life of Greater Cincinnati.
CCM’s acclaimed Jazz Orchestra performs a wide variety of styles including historical swing, bebop, post-bop, fusion, Latin and avant-garde. Concerts have included historical tributes to Woody Herman and Stan Kenton, as well as composer residency programs featuring artists like Maria Schneider, Jim McNeely, Slide Hampton, Tim Hagans, Kenny Wheeler and many others as guest conductors and performers. Many internationally recognized artists have performed as soloists with the CCM Jazz Orchestra, including Eddie Daniels, John Fedchock, Frank Foster, Curtis Fuller, Kenny Garrett, Joe Henderson, Ahmad Jamal, Dave Liebman and Joshua Redman.
