What happens when an orchestra of dedicated amateur musicians heads out on a tour of China? What’s life on the road like for orchestras encountering multiple concert halls, differing cultural norms, and planes, trains, and automobiles in a foreign country? How do musicians stay in artistic shape while traveling? And what about all that great Chinese food?
On December 23, the New York City-based Park Avenue Chamber Symphony launched its first-ever international concert tour in Beijing, and wrapped up the tour in the same city on January 5. In between were concerts in Qingdao, Dalian, Jinzhou, Chaoyang, Shenzhen, Guangzhou, and Shenyang. The tour came about at the invitation of the Beijing Concert Hall Corporation. Founded in 1999, the Park Avenue Chamber Symphony is led by Music Director David Bernard and comprises players who, as one journalist put it, are accomplished musicians who just happen to work in other chosen fields. “In addition to being a huge honor, this tour is a major mi

The Park Avenue Chamber Symphony’s performance of Beethoven’s Eighth Symphony was captivating throughout; the clarity of rhythm and the musical conviction of the players were superb in what was a sparkling account. Music Director and Conductor David Bernard made the most of Beethoven’s melodic material by emphasizing the shape of the musical line, and Beethoven’s trademark sforzandos (heavy accents) were punctuated with tremendous vigor. All dynamics were presented with great contrast, but Bernard also brought out the nuanced, Haydnesque elements in the music: the humor, the grace, the lightness of touch in the orchestration, and he emphasized the Viennese dance music that permeates the score.
