Craigie, he said, has marched the streets of Belmont, leading the band for every parade in the town over more than 20 years as the school district’s music director. “He’s formed the bands, and formed the children who perform in them every year.

MUSIC FESTIVAL CONTINUED FROM PAGE A5 his recitals, recordings, and appearances with orchestras throughout the world. His concerts attract a wide range of audiences, as he has ea- gerly embraced traditional pi- ano literature, as well as an eclectic range of repertoire, including new music com- missioned especially for him, world music and his own transcriptions. Mr. Fan’s en- gaging personality, technical assurance, lyricism and sheer musicality win over au- diences wherever he per- forms. As a recording artist, Mr. Fan scored two consecu- tive Billboard Top 10 Debuts with his solo CDs World Keys and West of the Sun. The Brahms “Third Sym- phony” was written in 1883, and is perhaps the composer's most elusive symphony. It is certainly his most adventur- ous, featuring daring modu- lations in the first movement, and a Schumann-esque scheme of thematic inter-re- lationships that culminate in an unusually subdued coda in the finale. It is notable that the first performance of Tchaikovsky’s “Piano Con- certo No. 1” premiered on Oct. 25, 1875 in Boston, Mass., and has since become one of the most popular of Tchaikovsky’s compositions and among the best known of all piano concerti. Classics concerts are priced from $20 to $65, and tickets may be easily pur- chased online.
