Paul Economy in a press release. " Under his
direction, Roanoke Symphony Orchestra has
continued to flourish. We, along with the community,
look forward to enjoying the fruits of
his inspiration for years to come. "
Wiley is only the fourth music director
in the RSO's illustrious history, and, at the
completion of this commitment, will be the
longest tenured.
During his time with the symphony so far,
RSO's Picnic at the Pops series was initiated
and has since expanded, their Destination performances
were created to showcase the incredible
chamber talent of the orchestra's musicians
and the yearly Music Under the Stars concert
at Elmwood Park continues to be a hit.
While hearing his music soar in front of a
large, enthusiastic crowd is a gratifying experience,
one of the most rewarding parts of
Wiley's work has been changing lives by sharing
his passion for music with underserved
groups through community-based projects
like RSO's " Route to the Symphony " youth
initiative and wellness arts programs at retirement
homes.
With the holidays right around the corner,
Roanoke Symphony Orchestra is busy
preparing for Holiday Pops, one of the
Commonwealth of Virginia's largest holiday
concerts. Attendees are in for a special treat
on December 1, when rising vocal star Emme
Cannon, who grew up in Roanoke, will be making
her RSO debut. " We are excited to welcome
her home for the holidays, " says Wiley.
When he isn't rehearsing with RSO or
traveling to New York to serve as the music
director and conductor for Orchestra Long
Island, Wiley and his wife Leah enjoy soaking
up all the natural beauty our region has to
offer. " We love it here in Virginia's Blue Ridge, "
he says.
