Eliel Saarinen, the eminent architect selected by Koussevitzky, proposed an elaborate design that went far beyond the immediate needs of the festival and, more important, went well beyond the budget of $100,000. His second, simplified plans were still too expensive, and 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 turned to a Stockbridge engineer, Joseph Franz, to make further simplifications in Saarinen's plans in order to lower the cost. The building that he erected remains, with modifications, to this day; it is still called simply "the Shed." The Shed was inaugurated for the first concert of the 1938 festival. It has echoed with 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. By 1941, the Theatre- Concert Hall, the Chamber Music c>. Hall, and several small studios — all part of the Berkshire Music Center, which had begun operations the preceding year — were finished, and the festival had so expanded its activities and its reputation for excellence that it attracted nearly 100,000 visitors.

    1 Part I Chronicle, 1926-2001 This listing of some 711 programs includes staged opera performances performed under the auspices of the MCMA (in the 1930s), and later operas (1961- ) performed with the Madison Opera. The chronicle does not include chamber music concerts sponsored by the MCMA and concerts by the Madison Civic Band. It was commonplace in the early years of the MCMA to include chamber works and art songs on the orchestra’s concerts. These works (marked by an asterisk) are listed in the chronicle, but are not indexed in Part II. Each program is listed by the date of performance. An asterisk following the date indicates that the program was repeated, usually on the next day.
