Only the few will recognize jm more than a century of technical in- /f| novation; today, that innovation is reflected in our ultra-thin mech- Meiais Piguet anical movements, the sophistica- tion of our perpetual calendars, and more recently, our dramatic new watch with dual time zones. Only the few will appreciate The CEO Collection which includes a unique selection of the finest Swiss watches man can create. Audemars Piguet makes only a limited number of watches each year.

Wellington Boston Symphony Orchestra concerts are funded in part by the National Endowment for the Arts and the Massachusetts Cultural Council, a state agency. Celebrating the 90th Anniversary of Symphony Hall On display in the first-floor Huntington Avenue corridor of the Cohen Wing is an archival exhibit celebrating the 90th anniversary of Symphony Hall. In addition to newspaper accounts of the building's opening in 1900, the exhibit includes period photographs and a tribute to acoustician Wallace Clement Sabine. Articles on various aspects of Symphony Hall will be featured in the BSO program book throughout the season. The cover shows part of an architect's rendering of Symphony Hall, with lettering for "The Boston Music Hall" visible above what was originally the main entrance on Huntington Avenue. The new building was never so named, however, since the old Music Hall, where the BSO performed until Symphony Hall opened in 1900, was not torn down as planned.

  • ARSC Journal
    A Discography of the Choral Symphony by J. F. Weber In previous issues of this Journal (XV:2-3; XVI:l-2), an effort was made to compile parts of a composer discography in depth rather than breadth. This one started in a similar vein with the realization that SO CDs of the Beethoven Ninth Symphony had been released (the total is now over 701). This should have been no surprise, for writers have stated that the playing time of the CD was designed to accommodate this work. After eighteen months' effort, a reasonably complete discography of the work has emerged. The wonder is that it took so long to collect a body of information (especially the full names of the vocalists) that had already been published in various places at various times. The Japanese discographers had made a good start, and some of their data would have been difficult to find otherwise, but quite a few corrections and additions have been made and some recording dates have been obtained that seem to have remained 1.Dlpublished so far. The first point to notice is that six versions of the Ninth didn't appear on the expected single CD. Bl:lhm (118) and Solti (96) exceeded the 75 minutes generally assumed (until recently) to be the maximum CD playing time, but Walter (37), Kegel (126), Mehta (127), and Thomas (130) were not so burdened and have been reissued on single CDs since the first CD release. On the other hand, the rather short Leibowitz (76), Toscanini (11), and Busch (25) versions have recently been issued with fillers.

If the operetta itself has proved somewhat ephemeral, its rollicking overture has found deserved permanence on orchestral programs.
