On August 13, 15, and 16, 1936, the Boston Symphony Orchestra gave its first concerts in the Berkshire Hills of western Massachusetts; music director Serge Koussevitzky conducted. But those outdoor concerts, attended by a total of 15,000 people, did not take place at Tanglewood: the orchestra performed nearby under a large tent at Holmwood, a former Vanderbilt estate that later became The Center at Foxhollow. In fact, the first Berkshire Symphonic Festival had taken place two summers earlier, at Interlaken, when, organized by a group of music-loving Berkshire summer residents, three outdoor concerts were given by members of the New York Philharmonic, under the direction of composer/conductor Henry Hadley. But after a second concert series in 1935, plans for 1936 proved difficult, for reasons including Hadley’s health and aspects of the musical programming; so the organizing committee instead approached Koussevitzky and the BSO’s Trustees, whose enthusiastic response led to the BSO’s first concerts in the Berkshires. In the winter of 1936, following the BSO’s concerts that summer, Mrs. Gorham Brooks and Miss Mary Aspinwall Tappan offered Tanglewood, the Tappan family estate, with its buildings and 210 acres of lawns and meadows, as a gift to Koussevitzky and the orchestra. The offer was gratefully accepted, a two-weekend festival was planned for 1937, and on August 5 that year, the festival’s largest crowd to date assembled under a tent for the first Tanglewood concert, an all-Beethoven program. At the all-Wagner concert that opened the 1937 festival’s second weekend, rain and thunder twice interrupted the Rienzi Overture and necessitated the omission altogether of the Siegfried Idyll, music too gentle to be heard through the downpour. At the inter- mission, Miss Gertrude Robinson Smith, one of the festival’s founders, made an appeal to raise funds for the building of a permanent structure. The appeal was broadened by means of a printed circular handed out at the two remaining concerts, and within a short time enough money was raised to begin active planning for a “music pavilion.” Eliel Saarinen, the eminent architect selected by Koussevitzky, proposed an elaborate design that went far beyond the festival’s immediate needs, and also well beyond the $100,000 budget. When his second, simplified plans were again deemed too expensive,

he finally wrote that if the Trustees insisted on remaining within their budget, they would have “just a shed...which any builder could accomplish without the aid of an architect.” The Trustees then asked Stockbridge engineer Joseph Franz to simplify Saarinen’s plans further, and the “Shed” he erected—which remains, with modifica- tions, to this day—was inaugurated on August 4, 1938, with the first concert of that year’s festival. It has resounded to the music of the Boston Symphony Orchestra every summer since, except for the war years 1942-45, and has become almost a place of pilgrimage to millions of concertgoers. In 1959, as the result of a collabora- tion between the acoustical consultant Bolt Beranek and Newman and archi- tect Eero Saarinen and Associates, the installation of the then-unique Edmund Hawes Talbot Orchestra Canopy, along with other improve- After the storm of August 12, 1937, which precipitated a fundraising drive ments, produced the Shed’s present for the construction of the Tanglewood Shed (BSO Archives) world-famous . In 1988, on the occasion of its fiftieth anniversary, the Shed was rededicated as “The Serge Kous- sevitzky Music Shed,” recognizing the far-reaching vision of the BSO’s legendary music director. In 1940, the Berkshire Music Center (now the Tanglewood Music Center) began its operations. By 1941 the Theatre-Concert Hall, the Chamber Music Hall, and several small studios were finished, and the festival had so expanded its activities and reputation for excellence that it drew nearly 100,000 visitors. With the Boston Symphony Orchestra’s acqui- sition in 1986 of the Highwood estate adjacent to Tanglewood, the stage was set for the expan- sion of Tanglewood’s public grounds by some 40%. A master plan developed by the Cambridge firm of Carr, Lynch, Hack and Sandell to unite the Tanglewood and Highwood properties confirmed the feasibility of using the newly acquired property as the site for a new concert hall to replace the outmoded Theatre- Concert Hall (which, with some modifications, has remained in use since 1941), and for improved Tanglewood Music Center facilities. Designed by the architectural firm William Rawn Associates of Boston, in collaboration with acoustician R. Lawrence Kirkegaard & Associates of Downer’s Grove, Illinois, Seiji Ozawa Hall—the first new concert facility built at Tanglewood in more than a half-century— The tent at Holmwood, where the BSO played was inaugurated on July 7, 1994, providing a its first Berkshire Symphonic Festival concerts in modern venue throughout the summer for 1936 (BSO Archives) TMC concerts, and for the varied recital and chamber music concerts offered by the Boston Symphony Orchestra and its guests. Ozawa Hall with its attendant buildings also serves as the focal point of the Tanglewood Music Center’s Leonard Bernstein

Campus. Also each summer, the Boston University Tanglewood Institute sponsors a variety of programs offering individual and ensemble instruction to talented younger students, mostly of high school age. Today, Tanglewood annually draws more than 300,000 visitors. Besides the concerts of the Boston Symphony Orchestra, there is a full schedule of chamber music and recital programs featuring prestigious guest artists in Ozawa Hall, Prelude Concerts, Saturday- morning Open Rehearsals, the annual Festival of Contemporary Music, and almost daily concerts by the gifted young musicians of the Tanglewood Music Center. The Boston Pops Orchestra appears annually, and the calendar also features concerts by a variety of jazz and other non-classical artists. The season offers not only a vast quantity of music, but also a vast range of musical forms and styles, all of it presented with a continuing regard for artistic excellence that maintains Tanglewood’s status as one of the world’s most significant music festivals.

The Tanglewood Music Center Since its start as the Berkshire Music Center in 1940, the Tanglewood Music Center, which celebrates its 75th anniversary this summer, has become one of the world’s most influential centers for advanced musical study. Serge Koussevitzky, the BSO’s music director from 1924 to 1949, founded the Center with the intention of creating a first-class music academy where, with the resources of a great symphony orchestra at their disposal, young instrumentalists, vocalists, conductors, and composers would sharpen their skills under the tutelage of Boston Symphony musicians and other spe- cially invited artists. The Music Center opened formally on July 8, 1940, with speeches and music. “If ever there was a time to speak of music, it is now in the New World,” said Koussevitzky, alluding to the war then raging in Europe. “So long as art and culture exist there is hope for humanity.” Randall Thompson’s Then BSO music director Seiji Ozawa, with bass drum, lead- Alleluia for unaccompanied chorus, ing a group of Music Center percussionists during a rehearsal specially written for the ceremony, for Tanglewood on Parade in 1976 (BSO Archives/photo by Heinz Weissenstein, Whitestone Photo) arrived less than an hour before the event began; but it made such an impression that it continues to be performed at each summer’s opening ceremonies. The TMC was Koussevitzky’s pride and joy for the rest of his life. He assembled an extraordinary faculty in composition, operatic and choral activities, and instrumental performance; he himself taught the most gifted conductors. Koussevitzky continued to develop the Tanglewood Music Center until 1950, a year after his retirement as BSO music director. Charles Munch, his successor, ran the Tanglewood Music Center from 1951 through 1962, working with Leonard Bernstein and Aaron Copland to shape the school’s programs. In 1963, new BSO music director Erich Leinsdorf took over the school’s reins, returning to Koussevitzky’s hands-on leadership approach while restoring a renewed emphasis on contemporary music. In 1970, three years before his appointment as BSO music director, Seiji Ozawa became head of the BSO’s programs at Tanglewood, with Gunther Schuller leading the TMC and Leonard Bernstein as general advisor. Leon Fleisher was the TMC’s artistic direc- tor from 1985 to 1997. In 1994, with the opening of Seiji Ozawa Hall, the TMC cen- tralized its activities on the Leonard Bernstein Campus, which also includes the Aaron Copland Library, chamber music studios, administrative offices, and the Leonard Bernstein Performers Pavilion adjacent to Ozawa Hall. Ellen Highstein became Direc- tor of the Tanglewood Music Center in 1997. The 150 young performers and composers in the TMC’s Fellowship Program— advanced musicians who generally have completed all or most of their formal training— participate in an intensive program encompassing chamber and orchestral music, opera, and art song, with a strong emphasis on music of the 20th and 21st centuries. All participants receive full fellowships that underwrite tuition, room, and board. It would be impossible to list all of the distinguished musicians who have studied at the Tanglewood Music Center. According to recent estimates, 20% of the members of American symphony orchestras, and 30% of all first-chair players, studied at the TMC. Prominent alumni of the Tanglewood Music Center include Claudio Abbado, Luciano Berio, Leonard Bernstein, Stephanie Blythe, William Bolcom, Phyllis Curtin, David Del Tredici, Christoph von Dohnányi, Jacob Druckman, Lukas Foss, Michael Gandolfi, Osvaldo Golijov, John Harbison, Gilbert Kalish, Oliver Knussen, Lorin Maazel, Wynton Marsalis, Zubin Mehta, Sherrill Milnes, Seiji Ozawa, Leontyne Price, Ned Rorem, Cheryl Studer, Sanford Sylvan, Michael Tilson Thomas, Dawn Upshaw, Shirley Verrett, and David Zinman. Today, alumni of the Tanglewood Music Center play a vital role in the musical life of the nation. Tanglewood and the Tanglewood Music Center, projects with which Serge Koussevitzky was involved until his death, have become a fitting shrine to his memory, a living embodiment of the vital, humanistic tradition that was his legacy. At the same time, the Tanglewood Music Center maintains its commitment to the future. Koussevit- zky conceived of the TMC as a laboratory in which the future of the musical arts would be discovered and explored, and the institution remains one of the world’s most important training grounds for the composers, conductors, instrumentalists, and vocalists of tomorrow.

Berkshire Music Center class photo, 1940 (BSO Archives) “Alleluia”—Celebrating the 75th Anniversary of the Tanglewood Music Center This summer marks the 75th anniversary of the Tanglewood Music Center, the BSO’s summer training institute for young musicians that was founded—as the Berkshire Music Center—by Serge Koussevitzky in 1940. To mark the occasion, the BSO Archives has mounted a special exhibit in the Tanglewood Visitor Center. Drawing on the Archives’ extensive collection of photographs, documents, and other memorabilia, the exhibit cele- brates more than seven decades of teaching and learning at the Music Center that have influenced generations of instrumentalists, conductors, vocalists, and composers who have studied with BSO musicians and conduc- tors, as well as a vast Instrumental Fellows give a spontaneous number of distin- lunchtime concert on the Tanglewood grounds guished composers and in 1949 (Howard S.

Andris Nelsons

In the 2014-15 season, his first as the BSO’s Ray and Maria Stata Music Director, Andris Nelsons led the Boston Symphony Orchestra in ten programs at Symphony Hall in Boston, repeating three of them at Carnegie Hall in New York this past April. Mr. Nelsons made his Boston Symphony debut at Carnegie Hall in March 2011, conducting Mahler’s Symphony No. 9; he made his Tanglewood debut in July 2012, leading both the BSO and the Tanglewood Music Center Orchestra as part of Tanglewood’s 75th Anniversary Gala (a concert avail- able on DVD and Blu-ray, and telecast nationwide on PBS). He is the fif- teenth music director in the history of the Boston Symphony Orchestra. Maestro Nelsons’ September 2014 inaugural concert as BSO music director was recently televised by PBS in its “Great Performances” series. His first compact disc with the BSO (also available as a download)—live recordings of Wagner’s Tannhäuser Overture and Sibelius’s Symphony No. 2, from con- cert performances at Symphony Hall in the fall of 2014—was released earli- er this season on BSO Classics. Also this season, he and the BSO, in collabo- ration with Deutsche Grammophon, have initiated a multi-year recording project entitled “Shostakovich Under Stalin’s Shadow,” to be drawn from live performances at Symphony Hall of Shostakovich’s symphonies 5 (photo by Marco Borggreve) through 10, the Passacaglia from his opera Lady Macbeth of Mtsensk, and selections from Shostakovich’s incidental music to Hamlet and King Lear, all composed during the period the composer labored under the life-threatening shadow of Soviet dictator Joseph Stalin. Also on the schedule for Maestro Nelsons and the orchestra are two upcoming European tours: an eight-city tour late this summer, fol- lowing the BSO’s 2015 Tanglewood season, to major European capitals, including Berlin, Cologne, London, Milan, and Paris, as well as the Lucerne, Salzburg, and Grafenegg festivals; and, in May 2016, following the orchestra’s 2015-16 Symphony Hall season, a tour to eight cities in Germany, Austria, and Luxembourg. Previously, Andris Nelsons has been critically acclaimed as music director of the City of Birmingham Symphony Orchestra since assuming that post in 2008; he remained at the helm of that orchestra until this summer. Over the next few seasons he will con- tinue collaborations with the Berlin Philharmonic, Vienna Philharmonic, the Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra of Amster- dam, the Gewandhaus Orchestra of Leipzig, the Bavarian Radio Sym- phony Orchestra, and the Philhar- monia Orchestra. He is a regular guest at the Royal Opera House, the Vienna State Opera, and New York’s Metropolitan Opera. In summer 2014 he returned to the Bayreuth Festival to conduct Lohengrin, a pro- duction by Hans Neuenfels that Mr. Nelsons premiered at Bayreuth in 2010. Born in Riga in 1978 into a family of musicians, Andris Nelsons began his Andris Nelsons conducting the BSO at Tanglewood, July 2012 (photo by Hilary Scott) career as a trumpeter in the Latvian National Opera Orchestra before studying conducting. He was principal conductor of Nordwestdeutsche Philharmonie in Herford, Germany, from 2006 to 2009 and music director of Latvian National Opera from 2003 to 2007. Mr. Nelsons is the sub- ject of a recent DVD from Orfeo, a documentary film entitled “Andris Nelsons: Genius on Fire.” A Brief History of the Boston Symphony Orchestra

Now in its 134th season, the Boston Symphony Orchestra gave its inaugural concert in 1881, realizing the dream of its founder, the Civil War veteran/businessman/philan- thropist Henry Lee Higginson, who envisioned a great and permanent orchestra in his hometown of Boston. Today the BSO reaches millions of listeners, not only through its concert performances in Boston and at Tanglewood, but also via the internet, radio, television, educational programs, recordings, and tours. It commissions works from today’s most important composers; its summer season at Tanglewood is among the world’s most esteemed music festivals; it helps develop future audiences through BSO Youth Concerts and educational outreach programs involving the entire Boston community; and, during the Tanglewood season, it operates the Tanglewood Music Center, one of the world’s most important training grounds for young professional-caliber musicians. The Boston Symphony Chamber Players, made up of BSO principals, are known worldwide, and the Boston Pops Orchestra sets an international stan- dard for performances of lighter music. Launched in 1996, the BSO’s website, bso.org, is the largest and most- visited orchestral website in the United States, receiving approximately Major Henry Lee Higginson, 7 million visitors annually on its full site as well as its smart phone-/ founder of the Boston mobile device-friendly web format. The BSO is also on Facebook and Symphony Orchestra Twitter, and video content from the BSO is available on YouTube. An (BSO Archives) expansion of the BSO’s educational activities has also played a key role in strengthening the orchestra’s commitment to, and presence within, its surround- ing communities. Through its Education and Community Engagement programs, the BSO provides individuals of all backgrounds the opportunity to develop and build relationships with the BSO and orchestral music. In addition, the BSO offers a variety of free educational programs at Symphony Hall and Tanglewood, as well as special initiatives aimed at attracting young audience members. The Boston Symphony Orchestra gave its inaugural concert on October 22, 1881, under Georg Henschel, who remained as conductor until 1884. For nearly twenty years, BSO concerts were held in the old Boston Music Hall; Symphony Hall, one of the world’s most revered concert halls, opened on October 15, 1900. Henschel was succeeded by the German-born and -trained conductors Wilhelm Gericke, Arthur Nikisch, Emil Paur, and Max Fiedler, culminating in the appointment of the legendary

The first photograph, actually an 1882 collage, of the Boston Symphony Orchestra under Georg Henschel (BSO Archives) Karl Muck, who served two tenures, 1906-08 and 1912-18. In 1915 the orchestra made its first transcontinental trip, playing thirteen concerts at the Panama-Pacific Inter- national Exposition in San Francisco. Henri Rabaud, engaged as conductor in 1918, was succeeded a year later by Pierre Monteux. These appointments marked the begin- ning of a French tradition maintained, even during the Russian-born Serge Koussevitzky’s tenure (1924-49), with the employment of many French-trained musicians. It was in 1936 that Koussevitzky led the orchestra’s first concerts in the Berkshires; he and the players took up annual summer residence at Tanglewood a year later. Kousse- vitzky passionately shared Major Higginson’s dream of “a good honest school for musi- cians,” and in 1940 that dream was realized with the founding of the Berkshire Music Center (now called the Tangle- wood Music Center). Koussevitzky was succeeded in 1949 by Charles Munch, who continued supporting con- temporary composers, intro- duced much French music to the repertoire, and led the BSO on its first international tours. In 1956, the BSO, under the direction of Charles Munch, was the first American orchestra to tour the Soviet Union. Erich Leinsdorf began his term as music director in 1962, to be followed in 1969 TMC faculty members Aaron Copland and Leonard Bernstein by William Steinberg. Seiji seated with Serge Koussevitzky during a Berkshire Music Center Ozawa became the BSO’s class photo shoot in the 1940s (Ruth Orkin/BSO Archives) thirteenth music director in 1973. His historic twenty-nine-year tenure extended until 2002, when he was named Music Director Laureate. In 1979, the BSO, under the direction of Seiji Ozawa, was the first American orchestra to tour mainland China after the normalization of relations. Bernard Haitink, named principal guest conduc- tor in 1995 and Conductor Emeritus in 2004, has led the BSO in Boston, New York, at Tanglewood, and on tour in Europe, as well as recording with the orchestra. Previous principal guest conductors of the orchestra included Michael Tilson Thomas, from 1972 to 1974, and the late Sir Colin Davis, from 1972 to 1984. The first American-born conductor to hold the position, James Levine was the BSO’s music director from 2004 to 2011. Levine led the orchestra in wide-ranging programs that included works newly commissioned for the orchestra’s 125th anniversary, particu- larly from significant American composers; issued a number of live concert perform- ances on the orchestra’s own label, BSO Classics; taught at the Tanglewood Music Center; and in 2007 led the BSO in an acclaimed tour of European music festivals. In May 2013, a new chapter in the history of the Boston Symphony Orchestra was initiated when the internationally acclaimed young Latvian conductor Andris Nelsons was announced as the BSO’s fifteenth music director, a position he assumed in September 2015, following a year as music director designate. Today, the Boston Symphony Orchestra continues to fulfill and expand upon the vision of its founder Henry Lee Higginson, not only through its concert performances, edu- cational offerings, and internet presence, but also through its expanding use of virtual and electronic media in a manner reflecting the BSO’s continuing awareness of today’s modern, ever-changing, 21st-century world.

2 NOTES ON THE PROGRAM

Brass music is people’s music. The instruments are durable, resonant over long dis- tances, and relatively portable. Bugle calls, hunting horns, royal fanfares, metal flashing in the sun—the sound of horns strikes a stirring chord in our sonic senses. Though not frequently used in chamber music in the Classical and Romantic peri- ods, brass instruments were among the most popular for small ensembles in the Renaissance. The canzonas by Girolamo Frescobaldi (1583-1643) and Giovanni Gabrieli (1557-1612) would have been played on instruments such as the cornetto (an instrument with a trumpet mouthpiece and finger holes like those of a recorder) and the early trombone called the sackbut. At first, canzonas were based on polyphon- ic vocal pieces, frequently written for organ, and heard in churches as interludes in the service. However, the canzona da sonare, or canzona for instrumental ensemble, had a life very much of its own. As the canzona’s repetition of a single musical idea developed into the Baroque art of the fugue, the fugues of Johann Sebastian Bach (1685-1750) have proven equally at home in arrangements for brass ensemble. Arthur Berger (1912-2003) was an American composer, critic, and teacher. A student of Walter Piston, Nadia Boulanger, and Darius Milhaud, he taught music at schools including Juilliard, Brandeis, and the New England Conservatory. He also contributed music reviews to the New York Herald Tribune alongside Virgil Thomson. In 1962, he helped found Perspectives on New Music, a scholarly journal about contemporary com- position and theory. He was a member of Aaron Copland’s Young Composers Group, a scholar with special interest in researching and promoting American music, and a two-time faculty composer at the Tanglewood Music Center. In his music, Berger embraced both Stravinsky’s neoclassicism and Second Viennese School-style serialism, and was disdainful about popularity. “There are other audi- ences, not at all negligible, besides the big ones,” he wrote in an article for the Boston Review. This early wind quartet, dedicated to Aaron Copland, falls comfortably into Berger’s neoclassical box. In three miniature movements, the piece is a joyous exploration of wind textures. The first is written in a jaunty, bright language, with verdant harmonies and a melodic figure reminiscent of the Baroque at its center. The second is a journey down a slow river, with a softly glowing cantabile oboe line and mellow interjections from the other voices, ending with a short lullaby. The finale’s climactic deluge of scales perhaps owes something to the “ribbons of scales” in Stravinsky’s Octet for Winds, also on this program. The Octet for Wind Instruments by Igor Stravinsky (1882-1971) marks the end of the composer’s period of riot-sparking neo-primitivism and the beginning of a new era in his musical life. No one could mistake the sound world of a “neoclassical” piece for that of something by Mozart or Haydn. The intention with which these pieces are written, however, more closely resembles the reach toward compact beauty of the Classical period than it does the unrestrained emotional tides, Sturm und

TANGLEWOODWEEK 5 PRELUDEPROGRAMNOTES 3 Drang, and restless expressiveness and yearning that characterizes Romanticism. Having previously drawn influence from Russian folklore (Petrushka, The Rite of Spring) and American jazz (Ragtime, Piano Rag), Stravinsky began to explore the art music of the distant past. Oddly enough, the inspiration for the Octet for Winds came from a very Romantic place. “The Octet began with a dream, in which I saw myself in a small room sur- rounded by a small group of instrumentalists playing some attractive music....I awoke from this little concert in a state of great delight and anticipation and the next morning began to compose,” Stravinsky wrote. At this point, Stravinsky’s most renowned works were on a much grander scale of instrumentation, so the choice to use only eight instruments—and winds, at that, which were considered much less versatile and expressive—baffled the public upon the premiere, which was conducted by Stravinsky himself. Aaron Copland, who was present for the premiere, later wrote: Now suddenly, without any seeming explanation, [Stravinsky was] making an about-face and presenting a piece to the public that bore no conceivable resemblance to the individual style with which he had hitherto been identified. Everyone was asking why Stravinsky should have exchanged his Russian her- itage for what looked very much like a mess of eighteenth-century mannerisms. The whole thing seemed like a bad joke that left an unpleasant after-effect and gained Stravinsky the unanimous disapproval of the press. No one could possi- bly have foreseen, first, that Stravinsky was to persist in this new manner of his or, second, that the octet was destined to influence composers all over the world in bringing the latent objectivity of modern music to full consciousness. Stravinsky defined his compositional priority as “order and discipline in the purely sonorous scheme to which I always give precedence over elements of an emotional

4 character.” Each instrument in the Octet has a unique character, color, and role to play. The movement titles are taken from traditional classical forms: Theme with Variations, and Sinfonia, a small orchestral piece used as a prelude to an opera, can- tata, or oratorio. The opening Sinfonia is modeled on sonata form, which shaped many Classical peri- od works. However, unlike those older works, the tonal center is wild and unstable, and the main theme of the movement is fragmented as it develops. It begins with a serene, fresh woodwind introduction before a whooping fanfare launches an episode of micro-fugues. The bassoons play a popcorn staccato in snug harmony while the trumpet, then the flute and clarinet, add a graceful overlay, variegating the main theme. An almost clownish polka rhythm takes us back to a trumpet call of the famil- iar fanfare, and trombones and bassoons in lockstep march the movement to a bright finish. The brief, pianissimo initial statement of the Theme with Variations is shared by the flute, clarinet, and B-flat trumpet over the rest of the ensemble’s terse chords. Without warning, the upper voices erupt into a frenzy of chromatic flight, and the trombones blare fragments of the 13th-century Dies irae, an ominous motif that has been quoted by composers from Haydn to Brahms to Crumb. Unlike many other usages of the Dies irae, however, there is no larger significance in this quotation; any ascription of greater meaning or emotional depths to this unsentimental work would, according to the composer, be inaccurate: “This sort of music has no other aim than to be sufficient in itself. In general, I consider that music is only able to solve musical problems, and nothing else, neither the literary nor the picturesque, can be of any interest in music.” Stravinsky called the whirlwind first variation the “ribbon of scales”; the notes fly like streamers in the wind. The speed at which the bassoons repeatedly trade off scale fragments requires especially pinprick precision. The organized chaos of that variation assembles into a blunt-edged march, followed by the return of the “ribbon of scales.” The next two variations are a wayward waltz with a trombone and bassoon oom-pah, and then a light-footed dance with clarinet and flute accents that show Stravinsky’s interest in early jazz. The ribbon comes back once more before the downcast final variation. A flute solo bridges this movement and the finale; a bas- soon keeps a driving pulse, suggesting a Russian circle dance, as each instrument enters the mix, but they don’t stay there for long. An assortment of energetic duets and trios—clarinet and bassoons, two trumpets, flute/clarinet/bassoon—carry the music forward. The listener’s expectation of a triumphant finale is eschewed for a winking, syncopated coda.

TANGLEWOODWEEK 5 FRIDAYPROGRAM 7 NOTES ON THE PROGRAM

Carl Maria von Weber (1786-1826) Overture to “Der Freischütz” First performance of the opera: June 18, 1821, Schauspielhaus, Berlin. First BSO perform- ance of the overture: October 28, 1882, Georg Henschel cond. First Tanglewood perform- ance of the overture: August 6, 1965, Jean Martinon cond. Most recent Tanglewood per- formance of the overture: August 20, 1995, Dennis Russell Davies cond. Der Freischütz is one of those operas (Così fan tutte is another) whose title simply can- not be translated into a simple English word or phrase without losing much of the point—for which reason it is almost invariably referred to only in the original German. One occasionally encounters “The Freeshooter,” but that merely conjures up images of the American wild west while completely losing the essential point, that the marks- man in question is shooting with bullets that have been diabolically “blessed” by a satanic figure to guarantee that they will hit their mark (in return, of course, for the usual recompense in the form of the marksman’s soul). Though rarely heard elsewhere, Der Freischütz remains a repertory staple in the German-speaking countries, where it generated—almost instantly—a type of musical “forest romanticism” that re-echoed through the 19th century. With this one work, Weber became established as the creator of German romantic opera. The plot was drawn from a short story called “Der Freischütz” that appeared in August Apel and Friedrich Laun’s Gespensterbuch (Book of Ghosts). The com- poser recognized its operatic possibilities the minute he heard about the story, as early as 1810, but nothing really substantive came of his enthusiasm until he dis- cussed the project with the poet Friedrich Kind in Dresden in 1815. Kind produced the libretto that Weber eventually set, though the title began as Der Probeschuss (The Trial Shot) and then was changed to Die Jägersbraut (The Hunter’s Bride) before settling down to the title of the original short story. The premiere was an unparalleled tri- umph; through Der Freischütz, Weber managed to bring Romanticism into the theater, a goal long sought without success by his predecessors among the non-musical dramatists Tieck, Brentano, Schlegel, Arnim, and Werner. The work was hailed at once as a national monument and quickly found performance all over Europe. The overture was a great success from the very beginning—it even had to be repeated on opening night before the audience would allow the performance to continue. And it marks an important change in the way composers approached the operatic overture in that it was conceived as a resumé of the entire drama, containing within itself the principal dramatic conflicts—carefully selected as to choice of themes and key—and working out the story in a purely musical way before the curtain rose. This procedure became the common practice of many composers, especially in Germany, to such an extent that we now consider it to be the basic function of an operatic overture. Americans rarely get the opportunity to see Weber’s epoch-making opera on the stage, but the dramatic heart of the score is made available, once and for all, in the carefully planned foreshadowing of this brilliant curtain-raiser.

STEVEN LEDBETTER Steven Ledbetter was program annotator of the Boston Symphony Orchestra from 1979 to 1998.

8 Franz Schubert (1797-1828) Symphony No. 4 in C minor, D.417, “Tragic” First performance: 1816, Vienna (some time after the work’s completion in late April that year), with Otto Hatwig conducting an amateur orchestra that had developed from the Schubert family string quartet. First documented performance: November 19, 1849, Leipzig, August Ferdinand Riccius cond. First BSO performance: March 15, 1884, Georg Henschel cond. First Tanglewood performance: July 29, 1951, Charles Munch cond. Most recent Tanglewood performance: July 13, 2008, Julian Kuerti cond. After the Unfinished and the Great C major, the Fourth and Fifth of Schubert’s symphonies are the ones most often played, but even then not all that often. Schubert’s first three youthful and energetic symphonies—the First composed while he was a student, the Second and Third during his years of schoolmas- tering—are infrequently heard, while the appealingly inventive Sixth remains pretty much a rarity on concert programs. Schubert’s Fourth Symphony, the Tragic, was completed in April 1816, the same month that he unsuccessfully applied for the post of music master at a training school in Laibach (Ljubljana). As a child, his strongest and most nat- ural inclinations had always been toward music. He’d had his first real piano lessons from his eldest brother Ignaz, and his father taught him violin. In the family string quartet, the violinists were Ignaz and another brother, Ferdinand; Franz was violist, and their father played cello. Like his brothers, Schubert was sent to Michael Holzer, organist at the Liechtental parish church, for lessons in voice, organ, and counter- point. Holzer recognized the boy’s abilities and later recalled that “if I wished to instruct him in anything fresh, he already knew it. Consequently I gave him no actual training but merely talked to him, and watched with silent astonishment.” When Schubert was eleven he was accepted as a chorister in the Imperial court chapel and took up residence at the Stadtkonvikt, a communal boarding school that also housed the Choir School. There he sang and studied under the direction of Hofka- pellmeister Antonio Salieri (best-known today, courtesy playwright Peter Schaffer, for his alleged rivalry with Mozart and for the unfounded story that his poisoning of Mozart caused the latter’s early death). There, too, he played in the school orchestra as first violinist and was occasionally trusted to lead rehearsals. The repertory regularly included symphonies of Haydn and Mozart, Beethoven’s First and Second sym- phonies, overtures, and other works. It was this orchestra that played Schubert’s First Symphony, which he completed in October 1813. 1813 was also Schubert’s last year at the Stadtkonvikt. His voice had broken the pre- vious summer, ending his time as a chorister, and he left there that November, turning down a fellowship, perhaps over a disciplinary matter. Now he was at a crossroads. In accordance with his schoolmaster father’s expectations, he entered a teacher’s train- ing school and, after a year there, began assisting his father. He did this for two years, and the hours spent in front of the classroom were not happy. But during this time Schubert managed to produce his Second and Third symphonies, as well as piano and chamber music, several operas, his first Mass, in F major, which he suc- cessfully conducted himself at the 100th-anniversary celebrations for the Liechtental church, and, in 1815, about 145 songs, including Erlkönig. (The song Gretchen am Spinnrade, which supposedly elicited from Salieri the comment that Schubert was a genius who could do anything, was written on October 19 the year before, when he was seventeen.) Despite this, the break from schoolmastering came only several years later, after attachments with friends like Josef von Spaun, eight years Schubert’s senior, who had helped organize the Stadtkonvikt orchestra, and who provided the needy

In the slow introduction to his first three symphonies, Schubert had already demon- strated the ear for orchestral color that is immediately apparent in the opening measures of the Tragic Symphony, where a unison C for full orchestra gives way to a somber passage for strings, with emotional heightening provided by the addition of woodwinds. This is Schubert’s first symphony in the minor mode—a hint, perhaps, as to the origin of its subtitle—and it may be viewed as something of a study in mood and color, as well as exemplifying a new approach on the composer’s part to symphon- ic weight, a concern to be taken up again with considerably broadened perspective (along with woodwind colorations perhaps suggestive of a Rossini craze then sweep- ing Vienna) in his Sixth Symphony of 1817-18. (The intervening Fifth Symphony, Schubert’s only symphony besides the B minor Unfinished to lack a slow introduction, and also his most lightly scored, is marked primarily by lightness, grace, and economy of means.)

10 The dark chromaticism, sighing woodwinds, portentous drumstrokes, and dramatic breadth of the Fourth Symphony’s introduction give way to an Allegro that is driving and grim in its first theme, clearly suggesting Haydnesque Sturm und Drang. The sec- ond theme is more lyric, but melancholy despite its major-mode leanings. The joyful exuberance with which the exposition closes comes as something of a surprise and serves to anticipate the C major close of the movement as a whole. The first statement of the Andante’s main theme, in A-flat major (reflecting Schu- bert’s inclination for key areas a third or sixth away from home base, A-flat being the sixth degree, or submediant, of the symphony’s home C minor scale), is made poignant by the presence of the solo oboe. The contrasting material of this movement, first forceful and then wistful, is presented against a background of restlessly pulsating strings. The third movement contrasts a jagged, downward-thrusting, minor-mode minuet against a major-mode Trio of rising lines and a more legato, folklike character. In his finale Schubert is successfully able to combine drama, grace, pathos, melan- choly, good humor (in the rollicking second theme), and even grandeur (in the fanfare-like material that closes both exposition and recapitulation) with the relax- ation over long musical stretches—again through use of third- and sixth-related key areas—that represents a hallmark of Schubert’s style in so many of his works. The symphony ends in unbridled, if chromatically colored, C major, on a threefold repe- tition of the same unison note with which it began.

Ludwig van Beethoven (1770-1827) Piano Concerto No. 5 in E-flat, Opus 73, “Emperor” First performance: November 28, 1811, Leipzig Gewandhaus Orchestra, Johann Philipp Christian Schulz cond., Friedrich Schneider, soloist. First BSO performance: January 28, 1882, Georg Henschel cond., Carl Baermann, soloist. First Tanglewood performance: August 2, 1947, Serge Koussevitzky cond., Jacob Lateiner, soloist. Most recent Tanglewood performance: August 15, 2014, Stéphane Denève cond., Emanuel Ax, soloist. “Nothing but drums, cannons, human misery of every sort!”: thus Beethoven wrote his publisher on July 26, 1809. The Fifth Piano Concerto is a magnificent affirma- tion asserted in terrible times. In 1809 Austria was at war with France for the fourth time in eighteen years. Throughout this crescendo of public wretchedness, Beethoven had been working with phenomenal intensity. Even so, one can understand that he was seriously tempted late in 1808 to accept the offer of a post as court composer to Jerome Bonaparte, puppet King of Westphalia. That gave the Viennese another cause for alarm, and three wealthy patrons banded together to guarantee him an income for life provided that he stay in Vienna or some other city within the Austrian Empire. Beethoven entered into this unprecedented agreement on March 1, 1809, and must have regretted it often during the subsequent months. On April 9 Austria once again declared war on France, this time with Britain and Spain as allies. One month later Napoleon’s army was in the suburbs of Vienna. The Empress left the capital with most of her family and household, and the French artillery began its terrifying assault. On the worst night of all, that of May 11, Beethoven made his way through the broken glass, collapsed masonry, fires, and

TANGLEWOODWEEK 5 FRIDAYPROGRAMNOTES 11 12 din to find refuge in the cellar of the house of his brother Caspar. There he covered his head with pillows, hoping thus to protect the remaining shreds of his hearing. Toward the end of the summer Beethoven regained his power to concentrate, and by year’s end he had completed several remarkable works, including the E-flat piano concerto. But Beethoven never again composed as prolifically as he had between 1802 and 1808. His biographer Maynard Solomon calls this period the composer’s “heroic decade.” The Sinfonia eroica in E-flat (1803-04) most forcefully defined the new manner. The Fifth Piano Concerto marks both its summit and its termination. In English-speaking countries, this concerto is called the “Emperor”—to Beethoven’s “profound if posthumous disgust,” as Donald Francis Tovey put it. The origins of the name are obscure, although there is a story, unauthenticated and unlikely, that at the first Vienna performance a French officer exclaimed at some point, “C’est l’Empereur!” Starting to sketch the Fifth Concerto, Beethoven turned his mind to the question of how one might begin in an original and striking manner. He introduces the piano sooner than an audience 200 years ago expected to hear it—not, however, with a lyric (or, indeed, any sort of) thematic statement, but in a series of cadenza-like flourishes. The opening E-flat chord, besides being magnificently imposing, is also instantly recognizable; it consists only of E-flats and G’s, and not until the piano comes in do we hear the B-flats that complete the triad. The piano responds to each of the three chords with fountains and cascades of arpeggios, trills, and scales. Each of the three “fountains” brings in new pianistic possibilities, and the entire first movement—the longest Beethoven ever wrote—is continually and prodigiously inventive in this department. Beethoven makes clear that the slow moment should not drag, qualifying Adagio with un poco mosso (“moving a bit”) and giving ¢ as the time signature (meaning that there should be two principal pulses in each measure). The chief music here is a chorale introduced by muted strings, to which the piano’s first response is an aria, pianissimo, espressivo, and mostly in triplets. Beethoven gives us two variations on the chorale, the first given to the piano, the second to the orchestra with the piano accompanying (but the accompaniment contains the melody, rhythmically “off” by a fraction and thus an instance of rhythmic dissonance). The music subsides into stillness. Then Beethoven makes one of his characteristically drastic shifts, simply dropping the pitch by a semitone from B-natural to B-flat (bas- soons, horns, pizzicato strings, all pianissimo). This puts us right on the doorstep of E-flat major, the concerto’s home key. Remaining in the tempo of the slow movement and still pianissimo, Beethoven projects the outlines of a new theme, made, like all the others in this concerto, of the simplest imaginable stuff. Suddenly this new idea bursts forth in its proper tempo, that of a robust German dance, and fortissimo: the finale has begun. The dance theme is elaborated by excit- ing syncopation. Just before the end, the timpani attain unexpected prominence in a passage of equally unexpected quiet. But this descent into adagio and pianissimo is undone in a coda as lively as it is brief.

MICHAEL STEINBERG Michael Steinberg was program annotator of the Boston Symphony Orchestra from 1976 to 1979, and after that of the San Francisco Symphony and New York Philharmonic. Oxford University Press has published three compilation volumes of his program notes, devoted to symphonies, concertos, and the great works for chorus and orchestra.

This past season at Sym- phony Hall he twice conducted the orchestra at short notice, substituting for Tughan Sokhiev in January (making his BSO subscription series debut on that occasion) and for Vladimir Jurowski in February. This summer at Tanglewood, in addition to tonight’s concert with the Boston Symphony Orchestra, Mr. Masur leads the Tanglewood Music Center Orchestra, Dawn Upshaw, and Vocal Fellows of the TMC in excerpts from Mozart’s Idomeneo as part of the TMC’s 75th- anniversary concert celebrating the history of opera at the Tanglewood Music Center. This past season, Mr. Masur also led performances with the San Diego, Munich, Nuremburg, and Omaha symphonies and returned to the National Philharmonic of Russia, where he is a regularly featured guest, for two sets of concerts. In addition he continued as associate conductor of the San Diego Symphony and as principal guest conductor of the Munich Symphony. Recent engagements also include appearances with the Dresden, Israel, and Japan philharmonics, Orchestre National de Toulouse, and the Hiroshima and Memphis symphonies. Mr. Masur has previously held appointments as assistant conductor of the Orchestre National de France in Paris from 2004 to 2006 and as resident conductor of the San Antonio Symphony in 2007. In 2010 he conducted the London Symphony Orchestra as one of three finalists in the prestigious Donatella Flick Conducting Competition in London; in 2011 he was the recipient of the Seiji Ozawa Conducting Fellowship at Tanglewood, where he returned by invitation as a Conducting Fellow in 2012. Ken-David Masur received his B.A. from

14 Columbia University in . From 1999 to 2002 he served as the first music director of the Bach Society Orchestra and Chorus there, also touring Germany and releasing a critically acclaimed album of symphonies and cantatas by W.F. Bach, C.P.E. Bach, and J.S. Bach. He received further training in music at the Leipzig Conservatory, the Detmold Academy, the Manhattan School of Music, and the Hanns Eisler Conserva- tory in Berlin, where he was a five-year master student of bass-baritone Thomas Quasthoff. Mr. Masur studied conducting primarily with his father Kurt Masur. Together with his wife, pianist Melinda Lee Masur, Ken-David Masur serves as artistic director of the Chelsea Music Festival (chelseamusicfestival.org), an acclaimed annual multi-media/ multi-sensorial summer music festival in New York City. Mr. Masur received a Grammy nomination from the Latin Recording Academy in the category Best Classical Album of the Year for his work as a producer of the album “Salon Buenos Aires.”

Garrick Ohlsson Since his triumph as winner of the 1970 Chopin International Piano Competition, pianist Garrick Ohlsson has established himself worldwide for both his interpretive and technical skills. Though long regarded as one of the world’s leading exponents of the music of Frédéric Chopin, he commands an enormous repertoire, which ranges over the entire piano literature. A student of the late Claudio Arrau, Mr. Ohlsson is particularly noted for his masterly performances of the works of Mozart, Beethoven, and Schubert, as well as the Romantic repertoire. To date he has at his command more than eighty concertos, ranging from Haydn and Mozart to works of the 21st century, many commissioned for him. Mr. Ohlsson can be heard on the Arabesque, RCA Victor Red Seal, Angel, BMG, Delos, Hänssler, Nonesuch, Telarc, and Virgin Classics labels. His ten-disc set of the complete Beethoven sonatas (Bridge Records) has garnered critical acclaim, as well as a Grammy award for volume three. A native of White Plains, New York, Garrick Ohlsson began his piano studies at the age of eight, at the Westchester Conservatory of Music; at thirteen he entered the Juilliard School in New York City. Although he won first prizes at the 1966 Busoni Competition in Italy and the 1968 Montréal Piano Competition, it was his 1970 triumph at the International Chopin Competition in Warsaw, where he won the Gold Medal (he remains the single American to have done so), that brought him worldwide recognition as one of the finest pianists of his genera- tion. Mr. Ohlsson was awarded the Avery Fisher Prize in 1994 and received the 1998 University Musical Society Distinguished Artist Award in Ann Arbor, Michigan. He is also the 2014 recipient of the Jean Gimbel Lane Prize in Piano Performance from Northwestern University’s Bienen School of Music. He makes his home in San Francisco. Garrick Ohlsson made his Boston Symphony Orchestra debut at Tanglewood in August 1971 and his BSO subscription series debut in January 1981. He has since been a frequent guest with the orchestra, most recently for subscription performances of Lutosławski’s Concerto for Piano and Orchestra in January 2014 at Symphony Hall and for a Tanglewood performance of Brahms’s Piano Concerto No. 2 in July 2014.

TANGLEWOODWEEK 5 SATURDAYPROGRAM 17 NOTES ON THE PROGRAM

Ludwig van Beethoven (1770-1827) Concerto in C for piano, violin, and cello, Opus 56 First performance: Possibly in 1804 by the orchestra of Archduke Rudolph, the solo parts having been intended (according to Beethoven’s amanuensis Anton Schindler) for the Archduke (piano), violinist Ferdinand August Seidler, and cellist Anton Kraft. First public performance: April 1808, Leipzig. First BSO performance: January 21, 1882, with Georg Henschel (cond. and pianist), Terese Liebe (violin), and Theodore Liebe (cello). First Tanglewood performance: July 25, 1965, Seiji Ozawa cond.; Eugene Istomin (piano), Isaac Stern (violin), Leonard Rose (piano). Most recent Tanglewood performance : July 11, 2008, Bernard Haitink, cond.; Jonathan Biss (piano), Julia Fischer (violin), Daniel Müller-Schott (cello). Beethoven composed his Triple Concerto, Opus 56, for his pupil and patron, the Archduke Rudolph of Austria, who was a pianist and amateur composer. The concerto was intended for performance by the Archduke himself, along with his court violinist and cellist, for which reason Beethoven made the piano part much easier than those of the two string soloists. He sketched the first movement early in 1803, about the same time he was composing the Eroica Symphony (which was largely finished by November), and continued working on it the following year, while also planning and writing two of his most famous piano sonatas—the Waldstein and the Appassionata—and the first of the Razumovsky quartets. Thus the Triple Concerto falls squarely into the period of Beethoven’s most prolific, and popular, work. The choice of three soloists for his C major concerto was an unusual one. Not that there weren’t concertos with more than one soloist before; the Baroque era is full of them, and even the symphonie concertante of the classical era has many examples. But the particular combination of piano, violin, and cello seems never to have been tried before. The choice of solo instruments may have been dictated by his dedicatee, the young Archduke Rudolph, who wanted it for performance by his private orchestra. He was one of the Emperor’s sons, was no mean pianist himself (he was a pupil of Beethoven’s), and remained for years one of the composer’s most steadfast supporters. The Archduke himself was to play the piano in the performance, and the violin and cello parts were written for the principal players in the orchestra, a violinist named Seidler and the cellist Anton Kraft, who was one of the leading virtuosos of the day. Beethoven apparently admired Kraft especially, because the cello part is notably more difficult than either of the other two solo parts and remains, indeed, one of the hardest works in the cello repertory. It is not entirely clear when Beethoven finished the concerto. He interrupted work on it in January 1804 to begin the composition of the opera Leonore (which ultimate- ly became Fidelio). In the spring of 1804 he spent some time getting the score of the Eroica into its final state for performance. And he seems to have been shifting back and forth between several works in progress at this time, so it may have been a year or more before he actually completed the piece, probably at the urgent request of the Archduke. The Archduke presumably kept the manuscript (now lost) of the finished work and took part in private performances. The parts were pub- lished in 1807—oddly enough with a dedication to Prince Lobkowitz rather than the Archduke—and the work was publicly performed in Vienna’s Augarten in May 1808. Like many of the post-Eroica works, the Triple Concerto is expansive, making a virtue out of length. In this particular case the length is generated in part by the presence of three soloists, each of whom requires a separate statement of the material in the exposition. This format, in turn, means that the concerto as a whole tends more

18 toward lyric elaboration than to dramatic transformation of the material. The first movement is far more leisurely and less heaven-storming than Beethoven’s other compositions of the same time, reveling instead in the genial interplay of sonorities, and grows out of the very opening hushed gesture of the orchestral cellos. (It is interesting to note that while Beethoven often liked to start his symphonies with a loud chord, he tended in most cases to begin concertos softly, even mysteriously.) To follow the unusually long first movement Beethoven employed the same proce- dure he had already tried in the Waldstein Sonata of having a short set of variations that links directly to the final Rondo alla Polacca, which uses the polonaise rhythm that even then, long before Chopin, was popular all over Europe for festive music of a particularly ceremonial type in triple meter. The Triple Concerto has long been the stepchild of Beethoven’s concerto composi- tions, the work least often played and most severely criticized. To be sure, the presence of three soloists sometimes leads to more repetition than we expect from Beethoven, but at the same time the sheer breadth of the work and the intrinsic beauty of many of the ideas mark it as a fascinating step in Beethoven’s progression. And beyond the Triple Concerto, we can already sense the two broadly lyrical concertos—the Violin Concerto and the Fourth Piano Concerto—that could not have been written without this preliminary.

STEVEN LEDBETTER Steven Ledbetter was program annotator of the Boston Symphony Orchestra from 1979 to 1998.

Dmitri Shostakovich (1906-1979) Symphony No. 10 in E minor, Opus 93 First performance: December 17, 1953, Leningrad Philharmonic, Yevgeny Mravinsky cond. First BSO performance: October 19, 1962, Erich Leinsdorf cond. First Tanglewood performance: August 10, 1984, Seiji Ozawa cond. Most recent Tanglewood performance: August 13, 2005, Sir Andrew Davis cond. The premiere in January 1934 in Leningrad of Shostakovich’s opera Lady Macbeth of Mtsensk was an immense success from the very beginning, with performances, either staged or in concert, soon extending as far afield as the United States, Europe, and South America. (The first performances outside Russia were in Cleveland, in January and February 1935.) But then, following a 1936 Bolshoi performance attended by Stalin, who walked out before the final act, the composer and his opera were publicly condemned in the newspaper Pravda—a denuncia- tion that carried the weight of official censure—in response to its advanced, often dissonant musical language, and for its violent, sexually charged story of a young woman who kills her father-in-law, her husband, a rival for her lover’s affections, and herself. After the scandal over Lady Macbeth of Mtsensk, Shostakovich retreated into a more accessible and conservative musical style. The wartime Seventh Sym- phony (Leningrad), with its heroic forces and a mocking portrayal of what seemed to be Nazi militarism, earned strong official approval. But his Eighth Symphony (1943) was criticized as excessively gloomy in light of the improving fortunes of the Red Army. The brief and unexpectedly frothy Ninth Symphony (1945) encountered even more intense opposition. Exhausted by his struggle with Party censors, Shostakovich turned away from his favorite genre of the symphony for eight years—the longest such hiatus in his entire career.

TANGLEWOODWEEK 5 SATURDAYPROGRAMNOTES 19 At the same time, he was writing a very different kind of music. In the late 1940s he produced the poignant and politically dissident song cycle From Jewish Folk Poetry, as well as the Fourth and Fifth string quartets and Violin Concerto No. 1. Realizing that the intimate, tragic style of these works would displease the authorities, he wait- ed to share them with the public until a more propitious moment. That moment finally came on March 5, 1953, when Stalin died, after twenty-five years as Soviet dictator. For Shostakovich and for many other creative artists in vari- ous fields, Stalin’s death was a long-awaited turning point and the beginning of a new era of greater personal, political, and artistic freedom. In July 1953, only five months after the “Great Leader” was laid to rest, Shostakovich began writing the first movement of his Symphony No. 10, one of the first major works of art created in the post-Stalinist USSR. The official reaction would help gauge how far cultural lib- eralization had gone. “I would say only one thing: in this composition I wanted to express human emotions and passions,” the composer observed. And most Soviet critics did in fact find the Symphony No. 10 an intensely personal and “subjective” work, especially in the context of the enforced communal spirit of Socialist Realism. The symphony's “individualism” stemmed from several sources. One was the absence of a dedication or a programmatic title, such as those given to the Seventh (Leningrad), Second (To October) or Third (The First of May). Another was its prevail- ing mood of melancholy and introspection, with much less of the optimistically triumphant bombast found in some of the earlier symphonies. Finally, there was the extensive use of the composer’s musical “signature” D-S-C-H (the notes D, E-flat, C, and B-natural in German notation, to represent D. Schostakowitsch, from the German transliteration of his name), especially in the third and fourth movements, a gesture that seemed to affirm Shostakovich’s personal identity and lonely artistic struggle, as well as the supreme value of the individual even in a society (allegedly)

20

based on Communist ideals. Both the third and fourth movements conclude with obsessive repetitions of the D-S-C-H motif. In the third movement, the flute and pic- colo tentatively sound this refrain over an extended pedal-point chord in the strings, while in the final measures of the finale the timpani bang it out triumphantly with the full orchestra blaring, as if announcing: “I’m still here! I’m still here!” Shostakovich had already employed this motto in his First Violin Concerto and would insert it into many works in the coming years, perhaps most notably in his Eighth String Quartet (1960). His increasing interest in chamber music also makes itself felt in the Tenth Symphony, with its many passages (particularly in the first movement) scored for small groups of instruments, giving the work an intimate and reflective—almost spiritual—personality. The sarcastic, grotesque humor so familiar in other works by Shostakovich plays a much smaller role. The harmonic and rhythmic style (2/4 and 3/4 predominate) is relatively simple and straightforward. Slow tempi predominate, even in the first movement. The savage second-movement Allegro—which may or may not have been intended as a musical portrait of Stalin— is tiny in comparison to the enormous first-movement Moderato, whose three skill- fully interwoven themes are among the composer's most memorable, infused with grief and mourning that never tips over into hysteria. Especially when compared to those employed in the Fourth and Seventh symphonies, the orchestral forces are rather modest. In the USSR, the Tenth immediately became one of Shostakovich’s most often per- formed and exhaustively analyzed symphonies, and a symbol of the personal and cultural awakening that followed Stalin’s death. It was also warmly received in the West. After its American premiere by the New York Philharmonic on October 14, 1954, New York Times critic Olin Downes called it “powerful, outspoken and at times grossly impolite.” The work’s introduction to Western audiences led to a renewed interest in the music of Shostakovich, whose international stature continued to grow during the “thaw” of the late 1950s and early 1960s.

24 NOTES ON THE PROGRAM

Joseph Haydn (1732-1809) Symphony No. 90 in C First performance: Composed in 1788, but precise date of first performance unknown; there were almost certainly three “premieres”—in Paris and Bavaria (for the work’s two, independent commissioners; see below), and by Haydn’s own orchestra at Eszterháza. First BSO performance: April 21, 1899, Wilhelm Gericke cond. Only previous Tanglewood performance: August 4, 1995, Hugh Wolff cond. As Joseph Haydn forged his 104 symphonies, sixty-eight string quartets, and mountains of other pieces, his reputation naturally evolved over the years. He himself evolved from a freelancer, to a longtime director of a palace musical establishment, to a freelancer again (with a pension from his prince). His early symphonies were small, light pieces that did not pose too much challenge to the chatting and card playing that went on during household musicales. His later symphonies were written on a grand scale, listened to raptly and applauded wildly by audiences in Paris and London, both of which cities, unlike Vienna, had a tradition of public concerts, and large and enthusiastic audi- ences to fill the halls. The symphony No. 90 in C major, from 1788, stands on the verge of the climactic dozen “London symphonies” (nos. 93-104) Haydn wrote for his two sojourns in that city. They follow the nearly as significant “Paris symphonies” (nos. 82-87) of 1785-86. Haydn’s symphonies 90-92 were commissioned, like the six previous Paris symphonies, by the Comte d’Ogny, and are in effect an addendum to the Paris set. But Haydn was a canny businessman and had developed a procedure of selling the same pieces to publishers in different regions (all of it above-board). He decided to use these symphonies to fulfill two requests at once, the other from a Bavarian prince. Haydn managed to keep both music-loving noblemen in the dark about whom the sym- phonies were actually written for. Symphony No. 90 begins with an Adagio introduction, a stern unison followed by quiet gestures. The opening ta-dum turns out to be a throat-clearing for a lively and good-humored outing. On the first page he sets up some ideas that will characterize the whole. After the opening unison comes a quiet string descent doubled, strikingly, by bassoons. Soloistic winds and bassoons, the latter often freed from their usual chore of doubling the bass, will be a steady feature of the symphony, likewise the strings’ repeated-note figure heard on the first page. The main theme of the ensu- ing Allegro assai simply speeds up the introduction material. The second theme and the first half of the development section have extended and delightful flute and oboe solos. For a second movement Haydn gives us a double-variation Andante alternating F major and F minor. The first theme is an elegant little dance tune in violins, with gently ironic bassoon joining in underneath. The contrasting second theme in minor has a kind of operatic conspiratorial air. The variations mainly decorate the respec- tive melodies (there are more extended wind solos). The final return of the F major theme banishes what few clouds have appeared. The minuet has a pompous tone, or maybe faux-pompous, with some mellow wind episodes and a lovely oboe solo as Trio. The finale is a nimble, bustling Allegro assai in sonata form. Its racing figures are effervescent in the strings and nearly virtuosic in the winds. It spins out as if discov- ering constantly new angles on its own delight. Well before the end comes an echt - Haydn joke: with a grand final cadence in C major, the symphony apparently and

TANGLEWOODWEEK 5 SUNDAYPROGRAMNOTES 25 precipitously ends. Just as we’re about to start applauding, the strings sneak back in pianissimo in the startling key of D-flat major. By the time the music makes its way back to C major and actually and grandly concludes, we’re a little afraid to applaud— which is, of course, the intention. In this symphony that can be numbered among his splendid but neglected ones, Haydn as always plays his audience with the same mastery as he plays his orchestra.

Brett Dean (b.1961) “Dramatis personae,” Music for Trumpet and Orchestra First performance: Composed for trumpet soloist Håkan Hardenberger on commission from the Grafenegg Festival, Danish Broadcasting Corporation, City of Birmingham Symphony Orchestra, and Leipzig Gewandhausorchester; completed in 2013; world premiere on August 31, 2013, at the Grafenegg Festival in Austria, John Storgårds cond., Tonkünstler-Orchester Niederösterreich. Only previous BSO performances (also the American premiere): November 13, 14, 15, and 18, 2014, Andris Nelsons cond., Håkan Hardenberger, soloist, Nelsons having previously conducted Hardenberger in the UK premiere with the City of Birmingham Symphony Orchestra on May 29, 2014, and the German premiere with the Gewandhausorchester on July 3, 2014. This is the first Tanglewood performance, to be followed later this summer by BSO tour performances with Nelsons and Hardenberger in London on August 22, Lucerne on August 30, and Cologne on September 4. Brett Dean won the prestigious Grawemeyer Award in 2009 for his violin con- certo The Lost Art of Letter Writing, which was given its American premiere in November 2007 by Frank Peter Zimmermann with the Boston Symphony Orchestra conducted by Markus Stenz. The remarkable trajectory of Dean’s career as a composer speaks to the communicative success of his work for both audiences and performers. He has enjoyed an increasingly high profile for about twenty years now, as well as maintaining his performance career as a violist and chamber musician. He has any number of advanced, modern compositional tools at his disposal for creating atmosphere and mood (some of his sound effects, such as those at the start of Dramatis personae, are genuinely cinematic), but, by and large, the rhetorical flow and scope of his music hark back to the late Romantic era. If we didn’t have movement titles for Dramatis personae, we would have no problem viewing this concerto in traditional terms—three movements, fast-slow-fast, like any number of Mozart and Beethoven concertos. The first movement, “Death of a Superhero,” starts out with the energy and spark of a scherzo, the orchestra building an intricate, intense edifice before the entrance of the soloist, whose quick and quirky melody returns insistently to a high B and a three-note rhythmic figure. The trumpet’s sonic power allows the orchestra, with reservations, to maintain a very active and constantly changing texture. A central passage in the movement intro- duces mystery, a legato solo melody over muted strings. A long crescendo brings back music similar to the beginning; the soloist’s increasing use of flutter-tongue and downward glissandos indicates decreasing vitality and eventual exhaustion.

26 “Soliloquy” picks up on these downward-tending gestures, transferring them to falling chromatic and microtonal scales in lugubrious winds. The bent pitches of the soloist’s legato melody help lend it a sense of instability and inward contemplation. The dramatic temperature rises as the soloist’s thoughts grow more fraught, but after an aggressive outburst comes a mysterious, still passage. The orchestra is almost pure, dark atmosphere. “The Accidental Revolutionary” was inspired by Charlie Chaplin’s Modern Times, in which a charmingly distracted factory worker endures and miraculously overcomes a series of mishaps within industrialized urban society. The soloist’s use of various mutes has less the effect of comedy than of donning a mask, putting on a new per- sonality. There is no explicit narrative, for the most part, but the intrusion of a march near the end of the piece, emerging half-heard within a turbulent, chaotic orchestral texture, adds a strangely incongruous sense of “reality” to the story and leads to a thrilling, if chaotic, ending.

ROBERT KIRZINGER Composer-annotator Robert Kirzinger is Assistant Director of Program Publications of the Boston Symphony Orchestra.

The following was printed in the program for the UK premiere of “Dramatis personae” given by the City of Birmingham Symphony Orchestra in July 2014. When the Grafenegg Festival commissioned Brett Dean to write his trumpet concerto Dramatis personae, it gave him the chance to fulfill his artistic fantasies on a number of levels. “The trumpet has something to say, it’s a herald,” says the composer. “It’s an instrument with so many facets,” he continues. “For that reason I let the trumpet, which I hear and see as the protagonist of a story, progress through different stages.” The concerto Dramatis personae describes the journey of an heroic character, a “superhero.” Influenced by the colorful world of action films and comics, yet rooted in the true feelings of classical heroism, Brett Dean created three tableaux in which the trumpet—the hero—makes its way through the world. A particular motivation for Brett Dean was also the anticipation of working with Håkan Hardenberger, whose virtuosity and commitment to new music was valued very highly by the com- poser. In the first movement, “Fall of a Superhero,” we meet the trumpet as the embodiment of good, whilst the orchestra plays the role of the eternal opponent. The individual, who braces himself unsuccessfully against a mass (the orchestra), shapes the program of the opening movement. The middle movement, “Soliloquy,” sees the actor/player “alone” on stage to speak out loud to himself, a device famously used in Shakespearean drama. As the player pauses, so develops the unspoken theme of reflecting on one’s own self. In the con- certo’s final movement, “The Accidental Revolutionary,” Brett Dean focuses on the chance, perhaps even undesired comical aspect of heroism. This was influenced by a scene from the film Modern Times directed by and starring Charlie Chaplin, in which the protagonist unintentionally becomes the leader of a group of workers on strike. Brett Dean wanted to translate into music the interplay of impulse and response. Dramatis personae ends with a theatrical entry by the trumpet which symbolically leaves its place and joins its own kind in the trumpet section. Mobilization is com- plete and the journey on a new course begins.

TANGLEWOODWEEK 5 SUNDAYPROGRAMNOTES 27 Richard Strauss (1864-1949) “Don Quixote,” Fantastic Variations on a theme of knightly character, Opus 35 First performance: March 8, 1898, Gürzenische Städtische Orchester of Cologne, Franz Wüllner cond. First BSO performance: February 12, 1904, Wilhelm Gericke cond.; Rudolf Krasselt, cello. First Tanglewood performance: August 3, 1940, Serge Koussevit- zky cond.; Gregor Piatigorsky, cello; Jean LeFranc, viola. Most recent Tanglewood per- formance: July 25, 2010, Hans Graf cond.; Lynn Harrell, cello; Steven Ansell, viola. The virtuoso score of Don Quixote is tremendously theatrical and filled with cacopho- nous moments that depict the “madness” of the protagonist and the futility of the Don’s ill-conceived adventures. Strauss referred to the work as a “battle of one theme against nullity” and admitted that his musical structure had taken “variation form ad absurdum and showered tragicomic frivolity upon it.” He completed the score in 1897 in Munich, and it was premiered in Cologne on March 8, 1898, to angry critical reception. But Strauss had already endured acid commentary about Don Juan and Death and Transfiguration from Viennese critical patriarch Eduard Hanslick, and he seemed good- naturedly stoic about this new onslaught. In fact, Strauss enjoyed immensely the oddities of his own composition, and wrote to his mother after a Ham- burg performance of April 5, 1900, about the “brilliant” horn players who used empty beer bottles as mutes, noting with special relish the good time he had personally had at that performance. Still, he was keenly aware of the difficulty of these very same passages, remarking to his father after a December 5, 1898, per- formance in Berlin how unusual the horns, trumpets, trombones, and tubas had found their muted passages. Don Quixote opens with the flutes and the oboes in a kind of fanfare, somewhat askew for not having been “properly” annunciated by the brass. Still, the “knightly” character of the main theme is clear in the distinctive triplet that immediately leaps upward, followed by the second theme in the violins and violas. Muted trumpets sneer at such pomposity, and brass and cymbals lead to the introduction of the solo cello. The ten musical variations on these themes follow Cervantes, even though Strauss reordered the episodes from the novel. But the work is also and perhaps primarily a character study, for which a precise program is unnecessary. Neverthe- less, it is frankly pictorial and gestural. Especially noteworthy moments include the episode of the sheep (Variation II), whose bleating is mimicked by flutter-tonguing winds and brass; the liturgical chant of the muted brass (Variation IV), illustrating Quixote’s encounter with a group of penitents whose image of the Virgin he mis- takes for a damsel in distress; and the flight through the air (Variation VII) marked by the wind machine and harp glissandi. The solo cello part is profoundly and delib- erately difficult, meant to serve a multi-dimensional character whose chasing of windmills is itself both futile and difficult. And while performance of Don Quixote has become a badge of honor for the modern cellist, a proof of technical virtue, it demonstrates far more the performer’s ability to communicate the pathos of Don Quixote and his tragic, yet bittersweet demise.

28 RICHARD STRAUSS’S “DON QUIXOTE”: The Variations The Introduction depicts a certain elderly gentleman of La Mancha reading romances, tales of knightly derring-do in the service of beautiful, pure, and helpless ladies. Harmonic sideslips hint that our hero’s hold on reality is tenuous at best. After the solo oboe introduces us to the feminine ideal of our knight-to-be, his imagination carries him farther from the world of reality. Something snaps; he has gone mad. Here Strauss brings in the solo cello to present the actual Theme (Moderato), the first part of which is labeled “The Knight of the Doleful Countenance”; a counter- subject is labeled “Sancho Panza,” the loquacious manservant. Variation I (Comodo) recounts the familiar episode of the “giants” that are in fact windmills. The huge vanes revolve imperturbably. The Don races at them headlong and is tumbled to the ground. Variation II (Warlike) is the Don’s attack on the stronger of two armies about to do battle. They are, however, really a flock of sheep, whose bleating fills the orchestra. Variation III (Moderato) represents the endless debates between the Don and Sancho. Then, in a radiant pendant to their conversation, the knight tells of his visions and dreams, in a passage filled with warmth and tender lyricism. Variation IV (Somewhat broader) has Don Quixote attacking a procession of penitents carrying a sacred image of the Madonna, whom he takes to be a kidnapped maiden. Quixote is soon sprawled on the ground, and can rise only with difficulty. Variation V (Very slowly) deals with the Don’s state of mind; a few fragments of one of his themes (on the solo cello) intertwine with that of his beloved Dulcinea. In Variation VI (Fast), Sancho, under orders to bring Dulcinea to receive the knight’s homage, claims that three girls riding on donkeys are the Lady Dulcinea and two attendants. Strauss’s jaunty tune in the oboes conjures up the hearty country wench reeking of garlic. When the Don attempts to address her in his most courtly manner, the girls

30 ride away as fast as they can, leaving him in utter confusion. Variation VII (A little calmer than the preceding) is a virtuoso exercise in orchestration. Don Quixote and Sancho, blindfolded and seated on a wooden horse, are told they will fly through the air to a lady in great distress. But the horse never leaves the ground, as indicated by the earthbound, pedal-point D in the bass instruments of the orchestra. Variation VIII (Comodo) depicts a journey by boat that almost ends in tragedy but closes with a quiet prayer of thanks for removal from danger. Variation IX (Fast and stormy) has the Don chasing off two Benedictine monks whom he takes to be magicians. In Variation X (Much broader), a gentleman from Don Quixote’s own village, concerned about the old man’s condition, defeats him in bat- tle, exacting from him a promise to refrain from knight-errantry for a year. Don Quixote makes his slow journey home. Now the clouds in his mind begin to clear away. A radiant A major chord—dominant of the home key of D—leads directly to the Finale (Very calm), a warm new version of Don Quixote’s basic theme (solo cello), which leads gradually to the onset of death pangs. The cello recalls the principal ideas associated with the Don. Following his death, the orchestra adds its quiet requiescat.

STEVEN LEDBETTER Steven Ledbetter was program annotator of the Boston Symphony Orchestra from 1979 to 1998.

Guest Artists Håkan Hardenberger Håkan Hardenberger is esteemed for his performances of the classical repertory and as a pioneer of significant and virtuosic new trumpet works. Mr. Hardenberger performs with the world’s leading orchestras, collaborating regularly with such conductors as Pierre Boulez, Alan Gilbert, Daniel Harding, Paavo Järvi, Ingo Metzmacher, Andris Nelsons, and David Zinman. Works written for and championed by him include compositions by Sir Harrison Birtwistle, Brett Dean, Hans Werner Henze, Rolf Martinsson, Olga Neuwirth, Arvo Pärt, Mark-Anthony Turnage, and Rolf Wallin, as well as HK Gruber’s concerto Aerial, which this year reached the mile- stone of its seventieth performance by Hardenberger, with the Berlin Philhar- monic. Today’s return BSO engagement at Tanglewood, performing Brett Dean’s trumpet concerto Dramatis Personae, is followed by tour concerts with the BSO and Andris Nelson at the BBC Proms, Lucerne Festival, and Philharmonie Cologne, the latter concert marking the opening of Hardenberger’s residency at the Philharmonie in 2015-16. Also next season, he tours with the Swedish Chamber Orchestra performing Steven Mackey’s companion piece to Bach’s Brandenburg Concerto No. 2, and with the Mahler Chamber Orchestra playing Turnage’s second trumpet concerto, Håkan. He opens the “The Trumpet Shall Sound,” a highly antici- pated trumpet celebration with London’s Philharmonia Orchestra, to include perform- ances of the Zimmermann and Martinsson concertos, a brass and late-night chamber program, and a public master class at the Royal College of Music. Further highlights include the world premieres of Thierry Pecou’s trumpet concerto with the Orchestre Philharmonique de Radio France under Mikko Franck, and Betsy Jolas’s double con- certo with pianist Roger Muraro and the Orchestre Philharmonique de Monte Carlo under Kazuki Yamada; the opening concert of Malmo’s new concert hall, and perform-

TANGLEWOODWEEK 5 GUESTARTISTS 31 ances with the Dresdner Staatskapelle, the BBC Scottish and Gothenburg symphonies, Bergen Philharmonic, Tonkünstler Orchestra, Orquesta Sinfonica Galicia, Toronto Symphony, New Japan Philharmonic, Hong Kong Sinfonietta, and Taipei Symphony. Conducting has become an integral part of his music-making; he has conducted such orchestras as the BBC Philharmonic, St. Paul Chamber Orchestra, Swedish Chamber Orchestra, Dresden Philharmonic, RTÉ National Symphony Dublin, Real Filharmonia Galicia, and Malmo Symphony. In recital he has duo-collaborations with pianist Roland Pöntinen and with percussionist Colin Currie. His extensive discography on the Philips, EMI, Deutsche Grammphon, BIS, and Ondine labels includes his latest recording with the Bergen Philharmonic and John Storgårds of Rolf Wallin’s concerto Fisher King. Previous discs feature new arrangements of popular film and pop melodies with the Academy of St Martin in the Fields (BIS), a Gruber and Schwertsik disc with the Swedish Chamber Orchestra (also BIS), and his trumpet concerto CD with the Gothenburg Symphony (Deutsche Grammophon). Born in Malmö, Sweden, Håkan Hardenberger began studying the trumpet at age eight with Bo Nilsson in Malmö and continued his studies at the Paris Conservatoire with Pierre Thibaud and in Los Angeles with Thomas Stevens. He is a professor at the Malmö Conservatoire. Mr. Hardenberger made his BSO debut in January 2012 playing the American premiere of Mark-Anthony Turnage’s trumpet concerto From the Wreckage, subsequently returning for his Tanglewood debut last summer with a performance of Rolf Martinsson’s trumpet concerto Bridge, and for subscription performances of Brett Dean’s Dramatis personae this past November.

Yo-Yo Ma Yo-Yo Ma’s multi-faceted career is testament to his continual search for new ways to communicate with audiences, and to his personal desire for artistic growth and renewal. Whether performing new or familiar works from the cello repertoire, coming together with colleagues for chamber music, or exploring cultures and musical forms outside the Western classical tradition, he strives to find connections that stimulate the imagination. Mr. Ma maintains a balance between his engagements as soloist with orchestras worldwide and his recital and chamber music activities. Throughout his career, he has expanded the cello repertoire, performing lesser- known music of the twentieth century and premieres of new works by a diverse group of composers. His wide-ranging discography of over ninety albums includes more than seventeen Grammy award-winners. One of Mr. Ma’s goals is the explo- ration of music as a means of communication and as a vehicle for the migration of ideas across a range of cultures throughout the world. To that end, he has taken time to immerse himself in subjects as diverse as native Chinese music with its distinc- tive instruments and the music of the Kalahari bush people in Africa. Expanding upon this interest, in 1998, Mr. Ma established Silkroad, a nonprofit organization that seeks to create meaningful change at the intersections of the arts, education, and business. Under his artistic direction, Silkroad presents performances by the acclaimed Silk Road Ensemble and develops new music, cultural partnerships, education programs, and cross-disciplinary collaborations. More than eighty new musical and multimedia works have been commissioned for the Silk Road Ensemble from composers and arrangers around the world. Silkroad’s ongoing affiliation with has made it possible to broaden and enhance educational programming. As the Chicago Symphony Orchestra’s Judson and Joyce Green Creative Consultant, Mr. Ma helps provide collaborative musical leadership and guidance on innovative program develop- ment for the Negaunee Music Institute of the Chicago Symphony Orchestra, and for Chicago Symphony artistic initiatives. His work focuses on the transformative power music can have in individuals’ lives, and on increasing the number and variety of

32 opportunities audiences have to experience music in their communities. Mr. Ma was born in Paris to Chinese parents who later moved the family to New York. He began to study cello at age four, attended the Juilliard School, and in 1976 graduated from Harvard University. His numerous awards include the Avery Fisher Prize, the Glenn Gould Prize, the National Medal of the Arts, the Dan David Prize, the Son- ning Prize, the World Economic Forum’s Crystal Award, the Presidential Medal of Freedom, the Polar Music Prize, and the Vilcek Prize in Contemporary Music. Yo-Yo Ma serves as a UN Messenger of Peace and as a member of the President’s Committee on the Arts & the Humanities. He has performed for eight American presidents, most recently at the invitation of President Obama on the occasion of the 56th Inaugural Ceremony. For more information, visit www.yo-yoma.com, www.silkroadproject.org, and www.opus3artists.com. This summer (along with Emanuel Ax) he is one of Tanglewood’s two inaugural Koussevitzky Artists, named for the legendary founder of the BSO’s summer music festival, and reflecting the BSO’s deep appreciation for his commitment to teaching and performing at Tanglewood, as well as his more than three decades’ involvement with the BSO. Also this summer at Tanglewood he collabo- rates with Leonidas Kavakos and Emanuel Ax performing Brahms’s three piano trios in Ozawa Hall on Thursday night, August 6; performs the complete Beethoven cello sonatas with Mr. Ax on Sunday night, August 8; and participates in an Ozawa Hall concert entitled “A Distant Mirror” on Thursday night, August 13. Since his BSO debut in February 1983, Yo-Yo Ma has appeared many times with the orchestra in Boston, at Tanglewood, and on tour.

Steven Ansell Steven Ansell joined the Boston Symphony Orchestra as principal viola in September 1996, occupying the Charles S. Dana chair, having previously appeared with the BSO in Symphony Hall as guest principal viola. A native of Seattle, he also remains a member of the acclaimed Muir String Quartet, which he co-founded in 1979, and with which he has toured extensively throughout the world. A graduate of the Curtis Institute of Music, where he studied with Michael Tree and Karen Tuttle, Mr. Ansell was named professor of viola at the University of Houston at twenty-one and became assistant principal viola of the Pittsburgh Symphony Orchestra under André Previn at twenty-three. As a recording artist he has received two Grand Prix du Disque awards and a Gramophone magazine award for Best Chamber Music Recording of the Year. He has appeared on PBS’s “In Performance at the White House,” has participated in the Tanglewood, Marlboro, Schleswig-Holstein, Newport, Blossom, Spoleto, and Snowbird music festivals, and premiered Ezra Laderman’s Concerto for Viola and Orchestra with the Berkshire Symphony Orchestra. Mr. Ansell teaches at the Boston University College of Fine Arts. As principal viola of the Boston Symphony Orchestra, he is also a member of the Boston Symphony Chamber Players. His solo appearances with the Boston Symphony Orchestra have included performances of Mozart’s Sinfonia concertante for violin and viola, Bruch’s Concerto for Viola, Clarinet, and Orchestra, Berlioz’s Harold in Italy, and Strauss’s Don Quixote (on six previous occasions with the orchestra, first in April 1997 in Boston and New York under Seiji Ozawa, and most recently in January 2015 with Andris Nelsons conducting).

TANGLEWOODWEEK 5 SOCIETYGIVINGATTANGLEWOOD 37 The Walter Piston Society

The Walter Piston Society was established in 1987 and named for the Pulitzer Prize-winning composer and noted musician who endowed the BSO’s Principal Flute Chair with a bequest. The Society recognizes and honors those who have established one or more “planned” gifts for the future benefit of the Boston Symphony Orchestra, Boston Pops, or Tanglewood. Such gifts include bequest intentions (through one’s will, personal trust, IRA, or insurance policy), charitable trusts, and gift annuities. If you would like information about how to include the BSO in your gift plans, or if you find that your name is not included with other Walter Piston Society members and should be, please contact Jill Ng, Director of Planned Giving and Senior Major Gift Officer, at (617) 638-9274 or [email protected]. ‡ This symbol denotes a deceased donor.

Boston University Tanglewood Institute (BUTI) The Boston University Tanglewood Institute (BUTI) is recognized internationally as one of the premier summer training programs for advanced high-school age musicians and is the only program of its kind associated with one of the world’s great orchestras. Founded in 1966, BUTI is a result of the collaborative vision of Erich Leinsdorf, then music director of the Boston Symphony Orchestra, who invited the College of Fine Arts at Boston University to create a summer training program for high school musicians as a counterpart to the BSO’s Tanglewood Music Center. Today, nearly 50 years later, BUTI continues to build upon its legacy of excellence, offering a transformative experience to more than 350 budding instrumentalists, composers, and singers who reside at its 64-acre campus in Lenox, Massachusetts. Its intensive programs, distin- guished faculty, and the opportunities afforded through its unique affiliation with the BSO and TMC have com- bined to give BUTI a celebrated and distinctive reputa- tion among summer music programs of its kind. BUTI’s season includes six performances at Seiji Ozawa Hall and more than fifty concerts and recitals in and around Lenox. BUTI alumni contribute to today’s musical world as prominent performers and conduc- tors, composers and educators, and administrators and board members. Currently, sixteen members of the BSO are BUTI alumni. The program demonstrates great commitment to students from around the country and world, nearly half of whom are supported by the BUTI Scholarship Fund, made possible by contributions from individuals, founda- tions, and corporations. If you would like further information about BUTI, please stop by our office on the Leonard Bernstein Campus on the Tanglewood grounds, or call (413) 637-1430 or (617) 353-3386.

In the building of his new symphony for Boston, the BSO’s founder and first benefactor, Henry Lee Higginson, knew that ticket revenues could never fully cover the costs of running a great orchestra. From 1881 to 1918 Higginson covered the orchestra’s annual deficits with personal contributions that exceeded $1 million. The Boston Symphony Orchestra now honors each of the following generous donors whose cumulative giving to the BSO is $1 million or more with the designation of Great Benefactor.
