LSO Pre-Concert Lecture

This season, Lakeside Chautauqua is partnering with the Conservatory of Music of Baldwin Wallace University and Oberlin College & Conservatory to provide a lecture prior to select Lakeside Symphony Orchestra (LSO) concerts. These talks prepare listeners to understand and enjoy the evening’s symphony concert more fully.

Join us at 6:15 p.m. Friday, Aug. 9 in Orchestra Hall for a Pre-Concert Lecture with Christina Furhmann on “Music and Dance.” Please note the location change. 

Tonight’s concert is a collaboration between the Lakeside Symphony Orchestra and Ohio Contemporary Ballet. Dance and music have been inextricably linked since their beginnings, and we will explore this rich history.

Fuhrmann serves as Professor of Music History & Literature and Editor of Bach: Journal of the Riemenschneider Bach Institute at Baldwin Wallace University.

Her research has been published in The Oxford Handbook of the British Musical, Nineteenth-Century Music Review, The Journal of Musicological Research and The Encyclopedia of Romantic Literature.

In 2012, she published an edition of Henry Bishop’s 1819 adaptation of “Le Nozze di Figaro” with A-R Editions.

Her book, Foreign Opera at the London Playhouses, from Mozart to Bellini, received the Diana McVeagh Prize for Best Book on British Music by the North American British Music Studies Association.
