Wyoming Symphony Orchestra

Justin Bartels

MONICA MENDOZA UWYO Student Composer World Premiere
HAYDN Trumpet Concerto
BEETHOVEN Symphony No. 6

We are thrilled to welcome Justin Bartels to the stage to perform Haydn’s Trumpet Concerto, a truly unique feat for its time. As part of the Colorado Mambo Orchestra, Bartels proves that one person can make a huge impact on the ears. His gleaming sound on the trumpet is full of dazzling technique in which we will hear in Haydn’s Trumpet Concerto. This concert also features the debut of a University of Wyoming Student Composer. The WSO is excited and proud to be the host of this student’s orchestral premiere. Ending the concert, we will hear Beethoven’s Symphony No. 6. This piece will take us on a journey through feelings of cheerfulness, anticipation, excitement, and serenity. As Beethoven was Haydn’s teacher, and as we bring the premiere of a Student composer, Legacies symbolizes the long lineage of students, teachers, composers, and listeners of classical music.
