About The Performance
Thomas Wilson Conductor, composer and trumpeter
Thomas Wilson is one of the most active and diversified musicians today. Thomas has an extensive catalog of compositions and arrangements that have been performed around the world, unlocking new performance opportunities for orchestras and artists and making him an in-demand orchestrator and arranger. As Associate Conductor of the Colorado Springs Philharmonic, Thomas conducts nearly half the season in Pops, Classical and educational concerts, playing in the trumpet section when he is not conducting.
Adam Torres, a Denver-based artist, is quickly emerging as a significant musical voice in the United States and beyond. 2022 marked the beginning of Torres’ tenure as Artistic Director of the Colorado Springs Chorale, and he is excited to bring his energy and passion to the Chorale’s 66th season through standalone concerts and collaborations with the Colorado Springs Philharmonic and other organizations. Additionally, Maestro Torres holds appointments as Music Director for Stratus Chamber Orchestra and as Senior Instructor for the Colorado State University School of Music Theatre and Dance, where he also serves as the Program Director for the Summer Residency Master of Music Program (Conducting Emphasis) for Music Educators.
