Boston Symphony Orchestra Concert Programs, Season 100, 1980-1981 #*M // « - \ 11 9 flil * Mi undredth Season HE BEING THERE... It can make a performance simultaneously electrifying and deeply personal. Clearly, there is no way to quite equal that experience at home. And even though we at Dahlquist design loudspeakers, we have always under- stood this. But being there isn't always possible for us, so we've devel- oped a loudspeaker that puts us almost there. It's called IM the Dahlquist DQ-10 Phased Array. And we're proud that over the years, music lovers have been so impressed with its ability to capture the elusive qualities of classical music that the DQ-10 has itself become a classic. What we've done is to restore the missing third dimension —depth. The DQ-10 gives the music back its substance and form and lets you explore its inner spaces. Subtlety, power, contrast, shading — perhaps even emotion and intent — stand revealed. There's nothing between you and the There are good technical reasons for this and if you write to us at the address below, we'll be glad to tell you about them. But all we want to say here is this — if music and musicality are im- portant in your life, visit a Dahlquist representative soon to audition the DQ-10. It's almost like being there. i : i * • 1 1 j 601 Old Willets Path.

BSO BSO Centennial Souvenirs The sales booth in the first-floor Symphony Hall stairwell near the entrance to the Centennial Exhibit offers two mementos of the BSO's hundredth-anniversary season: the souvenir poster specially created by American artist Robert Rauschenberg to honor the BSO's centennial, and the souvenir booklet, "The First Hundred Years," which offers a wonderful assortment of photographs, many in full color, and essays on the orchestra and various aspects of its history by writers including Aaron Copland- biographer Vivian Pedis; architecture critic Paul Goldberger; the former senior music critic of the New York Times, Harold Schoenberg; Michael Steinberg, and Steven Ledbetter. The essays include, among others, a survey of the BSO's first century, a profile of Music Director Seiji Ozawa, an appreciation of Symphony Hall, a recollection of the orchestra's triumphant tour of China, and a reminiscence of Aaron Copland's long- standing association with the BSO 1981 BSO/WCRB Musical Marathon Tops Quarter-Million Dollars! This year's annual BSO/WCRB weekend-long fundraiser, held this year on 27-29 March, continues to draw overwhelming response! By the conclusion of the Marathon's actual radio broadcast time, $254,822 had been pledged; however, a continued momen- tum of donations has promised the BSO at least $257,000. The earliest tabulation shows at least 1,000 new donors, and at least 1,000 donors have increased their pledges from previous years. Nine hours after the Marathon ended, months of post-Marathon work began. Throngs of volunteers, members of the Council of the BSO, arrive daily at Symphony Hall from all areas of greater Boston and beyond to do some of the Marathon's most important work: under the direction of Ruth Hertz, Lee Ghublikian, Kitty Mead, and Kate-Alden Hough, they open thousands of envelopes, deposit the checks, multi-file the pledge cards, mail countless premiums, and share the heartwarming, unique, and humorous letters which continue to arrive from BSO/WCRB Musical Marathon listeners. Much appreciation and thanks to our Council volunteer staffers and problem- solvers. From now and throughout the month of May, the Marathon Office on the third floor of Symphony Hall will be open from 10 a.m. until 4 p.m. for those donors who would like to pick up their premiums. The Council of the BSO is deeply grateful to everyone who pledged support to the orchestra during the 1981 BSO/WCRB Musical Marathon. 1981 '82 Boston Symphony Subscriptions Subscribers please note that renewal brochures for the Boston Symphony Orchestra's 1981-82 hundredth-birthday season will be mailed in early May, even though news of the season has already reached local papers. Current subscribers will be given priority in renewing their present seats and series. Information for new subscribers will be made available through newspaper advertisements in mid-May, after which subscription brochures will be available from Symphony Hall. Opening Night at Pops The Junior Council is busy with plans for the 1981 opening performance of John Williams and the Boston Pops on Tuesday, 28 April. The evening is the seventh annual "Opening Night at Pops" sponsored by the Junior Council for the benefit of the Boston Symphony Orchestra. Conductor John Williams will conduct a brand new march of his own, composed in honor of Arthur Fiedler, and guest soloist for the evening will be trumpeter Doc Severinsen. Symphony Hall doors will open at 5:30 p.m. for cocktails; supper with wine will be served at 6:30, followed by the concert at 8. Seats are available throughout the hall, priced from $17.50 to $100; all tickets include supper. For further information, please contact ticket chairman Mrs. Barbara Steiner at 237-5530. The Junior Council is a group of young men and women who undertake a variety of fundraising activities on behalf of the Boston Symphony Orchestra, including "Open- ing Night at Pops" and sale of the Symphony Mint at all BSO/Symphony Hall events. New members are admitted in September, January, and May. Membership inquiries are most welcome and should be directed to the Friends' Office, Symphony Hall, 266-1492. Symphony Hall Tours Guided tours of Symphony Hall are available on most Tuesdays, and some Wednesdays, from 12:30 p.m. to 2 p.m. until the end of the Pops season in mid-July; other days may be available by special arrangement.

    A MESSAGE FROM THE MILKEN ARCHIVE FOUNDER Dispersed over the centuries to all corners of the earth, the Jewish people absorbed elements of its host cultures while, miraculously, maintaining its own. As many Jews reconnected in America, escaping persecution and seeking to take part in a visionary democratic society, their experiences found voice in their music. The sacred and secular body of work that has developed over the three centuries since Jews first arrived on these shores provides a powerful means of expressing the multilayered saga of American Jewry. My personal interest in music and deep abiding commitment to synagogue life and the Jewish people united as I developed an increasing appreciation for the quality and tremendous diversity of music written for or inspired by the American Jewish experience. Through discussions with contemporary Jewish composers and performers during the 1980s, I realized that while much of this music had become a vital force in American and world culture, even more music of specifically Jewish content had been created, perhaps performed, and then lost to current and future generations. Believing that there was a unique opportunity to rediscover, preserve, and transmit the collective memory contained within this music, the Milken Archive of American Jewish Music was founded in 1990. This project would unite the Jewish people’s eternal love of music with their commitment to education, a commitment shared by the Milken Family Foundation since our founding in 1982. The passionate collaboration of many distinguished artists, ensembles, and recording producers has created a vast repository of musical resources to educate, entertain, and inspire people of all faiths and cultures.
