Description of Event:

The Lakeside Symphony Orchestra (LSO) will open its 50th season with "Light Classics" at 8:15 p.m. Wednesday, July 31, in Hoover Auditorium. Established in 1963, the LSO is one of Lakeside's most cherished traditions, bringing classic music to the Chautauqua community. The symphony performs eight concerts during its month-long residency. This year marks the 43rd year for Music Director, Robert Cronquist. Originally a French horn player, Cronquist was inspired to become a conductor by John Barnett, first conductor of the Phoenix Symphony Orchestra in Arizona. Cronquist studied conducting at Arizona State College and then Case Western Reserve University, in Cleveland, Ohio, where he continued to play. He also was an extra horn player with the Cleveland Orchestra under conductor George Szell. In 1952, he took to the podium as Assistant Conductor of the Mansfield Symphony Orchestra. He was made full-time Music Director in 1954. For the last 20 years, Cronquist has conducted the Cleveland Women's Orchestra, the oldest continually performing women's orchestra in the country. Under his direction, the orchestra expanded, started an endowment and moved into new fields, such as ballet programs and operas. The LSO is made up of more than 55 musicians from across the country who have devoted many years of great music to Lakeside. Cronquist has selected a diverse program of music that includes many Lakeside favorites for the symphony's first concert of the season.
