BIOGRAPHY 2013-2014 SEASON
JAMES W. RODGERS James Rodgers has been the principal contrabassoonist with the Pittsburgh Symphony Orchestra since September 2001. Formerly, he was the principal bassoonist with the Jacksonville Symphony, associate principal bassoonist with the Florida Orchestra, Second Bassoonist with the Houston Symphony, and contrabassoonist with the Colorado Symphony. Summer activities have included the Grand Tetons Music Festival, Cabrillo Festival of Contemporary Music, Colorado Music Festival, National Orchestral Institute, and Tanglewood Music Center. He studied bassoon with Norman Herzberg at the University of Southern California, and with Benjamin Kamins at the Rice University Shepherd School of Music. He also studied bassoon with Andrew Radford and contrabassoon with Gregg Henegar. A founding member of the Pittsburgh Reed Trio, Rodgers has performed to critical acclaim with Pittsburgh Symphony colleagues Scott Bell (oboe) and Ron Samuels (clarinet). Their many and varied concerts have been heard locally, nationally and abroad. An avid early music enthusiast, Rodgers likes to perform on dulcian whenever possible. As a pioneer of electric/acoustic bassoon and contrabassoon development, Rodgers is ever creatively exploring the possibilities of his instruments’ capabilities, both in sound and genre. Rodgers lives in Moon Township with his wife, Sue, a clarinetist and dietitian/diabetes educator, and their feline family.

THE PITTSBURGH SYMPHONY ORCHESTRA For more than 116 years, the Pittsburgh Symphony Orchestra has been an essential part of Pittsburgh’s cultural landscape. The Pittsburgh Symphony, known for its artistic excellence, is credited with a rich history of the world’s finest conductors and musicians, and a strong commitment to the Pittsburgh region and its citizens. This tradition was furthered in fall 2008, when Austrian conductor Manfred Honeck became music director of the Pittsburgh Symphony Orchestra. With a long and distinguished history of touring both domestically and overseas since 1900, the Pittsburgh Symphony continues to be critically acclaimed as one of the world’s greatest orchestras. With more than 36 international tours, including 20 European
20
tours, eight trips to the Far East, and two to South America. The Pittsburgh Symphony was the first American orchestra to perform at the Vatican in January 2004 for the late Pope John Paul II, as part of the Pontiff’s Silver Jubilee celebration. The Pittsburgh Symphony has a long and illustrious history in the areas of recordings and radio concerts. As early as 1936, the Pittsburgh Symphony broadcast coast-tocoast, receiving increased national attention in 1982 through network radio broadcasts on Public Radio International. The PRI series is produced by Classical WQED-FM 89.3 in Pittsburgh and is made possible by the musicians of the Pittsburgh Symphony Orchestra.
The Pittsburgh Symphony Orchestra and its home Heinz Hall are two of our region’s treasures. The Pittsburgh Symphony performs music of the highest artistic quality, brings the stars of the classical and pop music world to Pittsburgh, and introduces thousands of children to great music every year. This would not be possible without the philanthropic support of local corporations, foundations, and government, but most importantly individuals like YOU! This is a crucial time for the Pittsburgh Symphony. Recognizing our need, EQT and the Giant Eagle Foundation have collectively given the PSO a challenge grant of $600,000, matching $.50 for every new or increased gift we raise over the next two years (up to $1.2 million.) This means that each new dollar you give equals $1.50 for the PSO. Please consider “multiplying your support” by making a new or increased gift to the PSO’s 2013-2014 Annual Fund. If you are already a donor to the Annual Fund any increase over last year’s gift will be matched; if you are considering joining the PSO’s donor family with a first-time gift, your entire gift will be matched! To make your gift, visit pittsburghsymphony. org/donate, or call your PSR (Patron Services Representative) or the PSO’s Development Department at 412.392.4880.

LEGACY OF EXCELLENCE LEGACY OF EXCELLENCE
In addition to income from the Annual Fund, the Pittsburgh Symphony Orchestra is dependent on a robust endowment to assure its financial stability. Gifts from Legacy of Excellence programs are directed to the endowment to provide for the PSO’s future. The Steinberg Society honors donors who have advised the PSO in writing that they have made a provision for the orchestra through their estate plans. Members of the Sid Kaplan Tribute program have made a planned gift to the endowment of $10,000 or more to commemorate a particular person or event. Endowed naming opportunities for guest artists, musicians’ chairs, concert series, educational programs or designated spaces allow donors to specify a name or tribute for 10 years, 20 years or in perpetuity.
