Mozart Piano Concerto Series
In early biographies, Mozart has been portrayed
as unsophisticated in matters of business. Nothing
could be further from the truth. During the
years 1782 to 1785, some of the happiest of his life,
the energetic composer conceived, wrote works
for, promoted and implemented a series of piano
concerto performances for his own benefit. Quite
successful, these events launched young Wolfgang’s
career. These concerts presented Mozart’s immense
skill as a composer who had just perfected one
of the great musical genres – the piano concerto.
His facility with this musical form and his blazing
virtuosity (he was the Jimi Hendrix of the recentlyinvented
pianoforte) brought him to the forefront
of Viennese musical society.
In this spirit, we will showcase four of the
master’s great piano concertos at four “academies”
(last week of April & second week of May). These
will feature the talents of our fine musicians
alongside two internationally renowned guest
pianists: Janina Fialkowska and Jon Nakamatsu.
This Schuster subscription series is family-priced
into three simple tiers. As an added bonus, every
subscriber receives a $2 discount for the Mozart
movie, In Search of Mozart. Subscription seats are
on sale on a first-come, first-serve basis. Single
tickets go on sale February 15, 2006.

and a Polish father in Montreal,
Janina started piano study with her
mother at the tender age of five.
Later, she entered the Ecole de

of Montreal awarded her both
advanced degrees of Baccalaureat and
Maitrise by the time she was only 17.

NCR Presents
The Miracle of Mozart Festival
Announcing a Dayton area musical event of epic proportions! Too big for any one
group, it takes many. Too big for any one location, it takes nine. Too big for one
city, it takes the region.
To celebrate the mind and spirit of the greatest musician of all time, the
Dayton Philharmonic Orchestra has assembled a remarkable lineup of concerts and
events that show off Mozart’s nearly unbelievable musical talents. This far-reaching
music festival includes both free and paid events performed in a variety of settings
and by a wide variety of musical groups.
In addition to the sheer amount of music that Mozart created in his brief
lifetime, he also achieved mastery over every genre. From the largest symphonies and
operas to the most intimate solo compositions, Mozart turned his miraculous talents
to every musical form!
With that in mind, we present concerts featuring a wide array of
performances including symphonies, opera works, sacred works, piano concertos,
string quartets, various ensemble groups, and solo recitals.
Collaborations with local and international partners have inspired events
that will bring Mozart to life right in front of your eyes and ears.
Seventh Arts Productions in Britain has provided a new documentary
film which will be presented at Neon Movies. Internationally known artists such
as Emanuel Ax, Janina Fialkowska, and Jon Nakamatsu will reveal the magic of
Mozart’s piano concertos. The Schuster Center Mozart concerts will feature preconcert
speakers and events. The Dayton Opera will host some surprise guests during
the May gala concert. The Dayton Mandolin Orchestra will perform prior to four of
the Schuster concerts. There is a new commission! Composer Robert Rodríguez
will provide an Agnus Dei movementto complete Mozart’s unfinished Mass in C minor.
The NCR Miracle of Mozart Festival is made up of two parts. Throughout
will be community concerts that are free to the public. The March calendar of
six free concerts is called Amadeus Unbound, because it will take Wolfgang
for a “free ride” around the wider Dayton community.
The April/May segment is called Amadeus Downtown, because all
the activities occur in downtown Dayton.
