Pomona College Orchestra

Transcendent landscapes of Finland fill the mind’s eye as Jean Sibelius’s Symphony No. 5 takes the listener through an epic musical journey. The grandeur of Sibelius’s genius is complemented by the suave allure of Arturo Márquez’s Danzón No. 2, one of the most-performed classical works of the last half-century. Faculty soloist Kira Blumberg portrays La Llorona, the “crying woman” of Latin American mythology, in Gabriela Lena Frank’s tone poem for viola and orchestra.

Under the leadership of Eric Lindholm, the Pomona College Orchestra regularly presents four programs a year in Bridges Hall of Music and is one of the largest and most prestigious performing organizations on campus.
