Christoph von Dohnányi will open the season with music of Brahms and Mahler, returning later for three all-Beethoven programs. BSO LaCroix Family Conductor Emeritus Bernard Haitink will lead music of Ravel, Steven Stucky, Schumann, and Brahms, and Lorin Maazel’s three season-ending programs offer music of Mozart, Mahler, Mussorgsky, Rachmaninoff, Tchaikovsky, Glinka, and Berlioz. Acclaimed British conductor Daniel Harding makes his BSO debut, and two returning artists take dual roles, Christoph Eschenbach as conductor-pianist and Leonidas Kavakos as conductor- violinist. Returning guest conductors also include Thomas Adès, Andrew Davis, Charles Dutoit, Rafael Frühbeck de Burgos, Daniele Gatti, Manfred Honeck, Andris Nelsons, and Robert Spano. In addition, David Newman makes his BSO subscription series debut leading the complete score of Leonard Bernstein’s West Side Story to accompany a newly remas- tered, high-definition print of the film, and BSO Assistant Conductor Andris Poga leads his first full subscription program. And in addition to an internationally acclaimed roster of guest soloists throughout the season, the BSO will again spotlight members of the orches- tra without a conductor, when BSO players are joined by guest pianists Richard Goode and Menahem Pressler for two all-Mozart programs. 2013-14 brings the premieres of four works commissioned by the BSO, three of them by American composers: the American premiere in October of British composer Mark-Anthony Turnage’s Speranza; the world premiere in November of Marc Neikrug’s Concerto for Bassoon and Orchestra, featuring BSO principal bassoon Richard Svoboda; the world pre- miere in January of Justin Dello Joio’s Piano Concerto, featuring Garrick Ohlsson; and the world premiere in April of Bernard Rands’s Concerto for Piano and Orchestra, featuring Jonathan Biss. Further, British composer-pianist-conductor Thomas Adès returns in October for his third BSO appearance in four years; and, in late October/early November, to mark the 80th birthday of the great Polish composer Krzysztof Penderecki, Charles Dutoit leads the composer’s Concerto Grosso No. 1 for three cellos and orchestra, with which Dutoit, the work’s dedicatee, has been closely associated since leading the 2001 world premiere in Tokyo. In conjunction with performances of Benjamin Britten’s War Requiem in November and the five Beethoven piano concertos featuring Yefim Bronfman under Christoph von Dohnányi in March, the BSO is pleased to introduce—in collaboration with local institutions including Harvard University, the John F. Kennedy Library and Museum, the Museum of Fine Arts, and the New England Conservatory of Music—two “Insights” series investigating, through week 25 bso news 7 film presentations, lectures, and additional musical performances, the cultural context in which these works were composed, all further enhanced by in-depth video podcasts on the BSO’s website, bso.org, with full details to be announced later.

  • A Culture of Recording: Christopher Raeburn and the Decca Record Company

    A Culture of Recording: Christopher Raeburn and the Decca Record Company

    A Culture of Recording: Christopher Raeburn and the Decca Record Company Sally Elizabeth Drew A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy The University of Sheffield Faculty of Arts and Humanities Department of Music This work was supported by the Arts & Humanities Research Council September 2018 1 2 Abstract This thesis examines the working culture of the Decca Record Company, and how group interaction and individual agency have made an impact on the production of music recordings. Founded in London in 1929, Decca built a global reputation as a pioneer of sound recording with access to the world’s leading musicians. With its roots in manufacturing and experimental wartime engineering, the company developed a peerless classical music catalogue that showcased technological innovation alongside artistic accomplishment. This investigation focuses specifically on the contribution of the recording producer at Decca in creating this legacy, as can be illustrated by the career of Christopher Raeburn, the company’s most prolific producer and specialist in opera and vocal repertoire. It is the first study to examine Raeburn’s archive, and is supported with unpublished memoirs, private papers and recorded interviews with colleagues, collaborators and artists. Using these sources, the thesis considers the history and functions of the staff producer within Decca’s wider operational structure in parallel with the personal aspirations of the individual in exerting control, choice and authority on the process and product of recording. Having been recruited to Decca by John Culshaw in 1957, Raeburn’s fifty-year career spanned seminal moments of the company’s artistic and commercial lifecycle: from assisting in exploiting the dramatic potential of stereo technology in Culshaw’s Ring during the 1960s to his serving as audio producer for the 1990 The Three Tenors Concert international phenomenon.
