A Message from the President of the WSO Board of Directors Ken Wenger
Dear Friends,
On behalf of the Woodstock Symphony Orchestra Board of Directors, it is my distinct
pleasure to welcome you to our 46th season and to thank you for being a vital part of our orchestra community.
We celebrate the third season helmed by Maestro Mina Kim and are proud to support
a group of extraordinary musicians whose passions bring classical music to life and lift the spirits at every unique performance.
None of this would be possible without your continued support. Your attendance and generosity help sustain our mission to make exceptional classical orchestral music for you our patrons, and as a platform for our players who can only thrive if amongst other talented, dedicated and accomplished musicians. We are especially grateful for our patrons, donors, sponsors and our Executive Director, Dana White-Marks, who keep our classical music first in their hearts, just as it is in mine.
As we look ahead, we are inspired by the possibilities. With your help, we can continue to grow, innovate, and reach even more hearts through classical orchestral music.
Thank you for sharing these moments with us. Enjoy the performance!
Ken Wenger
President of the Board, Woodstock Symphony Orchestra
I am happy to report that after Maestra Mina Kim completed her first season with the outstanding synergy she created with our orchestra musicians, she has put together a season that will enthrall our audience. I am inspired by her deep musical knowledge and how she is able to impart such nuance like no one else. As members of our audience, you are here because, like me, you treasure classical music. In these days of so many ways to hear music, and so many types of music, you have taken the time to enjoy the full spectrum of emotions that one piece of music can convey through such complex use of texture, colors and finesse. Our orchestra is home to some of the most gifted and accomplished classical musicians, not merely from Woodstock, but from all over the Hudson Valley. We are so thankful for them and I know they are grateful to be able to sit amongst each other while they make and perform for us such sublime music. This would all be impossible without the continued financial support of our donors, large and small, for whom the orchestra members, our full board of directors and I, are eternally grateful. Thank you!
