As I’ve written<\/a> in the OSO’s program books in years past, the business of booking soloists and conductors takes place years in advance of their appearances with the orchestra.\u00a0 So when there are last minute emergencies such as illness or accident, it’s an all-hands-on-deck scramble to find a replacement who will meet or exceed the high standard of performance of the indisposed musician.<\/p>\n

<\/object><\/p>\n

In this case, Arabella Steinbacher<\/a>, a young violinist from Germany who was to have made her Oregon Symphony debut next week, fell ill and a replacement had to be found.\u00a0 In a happy development, the excellent violinist Chee-Yun<\/a> was available and will play the originally programmed Dvorak violin concerto in Ms. Steinbacher’s place, and it will also be an Oregon Symphony debut performance<\/span>.\u00a0 While I was interested in hearing Steinbacher’s performance, I’m actually glad to get a chance to hear Chee-Yun in-person – she should present a dynamic and exciting reading of the Dvorak.<\/p>\n
