Hello, everyone. Here is your electronic digest of news and events from the =

Oberlin Conservatory of Music at Oberlin College.

Classical music offerings at Oberlin in October are as abundant and vibrant =

as autumn leaves.

In addition to the numerous free concerts and recitals that are a hallmark

take place at Finney Chapel in October.

On Saturday, October 5, the internationally acclaimed Orpheus Chamber 
Orchestra will perform works by Haydn, Mendelssohn, and Carter. On Tuesday, =

October 15, outstanding pianist Marc-Andr=E9 Hamelin performs works by 
Schubert, Liszt, and Chopin. Both concerts begin at 8 p.m.

Praised by the Chicago Tribune -- "It's difficult to imagine a more sublime =

performance" -- and recognized internationally as one of the world's great 
orchestras, the Orpheus Chamber Ensemble, which performs without a 
conductor, celebrates its 30th season of concert activity spanning three 
continents, including appearances in the major cities of North America, 
Europe, and Asia. Accompanying the critical acclaim for Orpheus's live 
appearances are numerous distinctions and awards, including a 2001 Grammy 
for Shadow Dances: Stravinsky Miniatures, a 1998 Grammy nomination for its 
recording of Mozart piano concertos with Richard Goode, and Musical 
America's 1998 Ensemble of the Year award. For its Oberlin appearance 
Orpheus will present Haydn's Symphony No. 73 ("La Chasse"); Mendelssohn's 
Violin Concerto (with soloist Eric Wyrick); and Elliott Carter's Symphony
