Hubbard, Hall Services Commemorating World War II Throughout the 1994-95 season the Boston Sym- phony Orchestra will be commemorating the 50th anniversary of the end of World War II. To mark this anniversary, the Boston Symphony Orchestra Ar- chives has mounted an exhibition in the two display cases in the Huntington Avenue corridor of the Cohen Wing. The first case holds a display entitled "Silenced Voices: Music Banned by the Nazis," conceived by BSO violist Mark Ludwig, who is mounting a large-scale exhibit under the same name at Brandeis University, sponsored by Brandeis and theTerezin Music Foundation (October 2-November 8). The second case holds a display entitled "The Boston Symphony Orchestra and World War II," which examines the activities of the BSO and Boston Pops prior to and during the United States involvement in the War. Drawing on photographs, programs, newspaper clippings, and other memorabilia preserved in the Boston Symphony Archives, the exhibit highlights, among other events, the "First Concert Performance in the Western Hemisphere" of Shostakovich's Seventh Symphony, given by theTMC Orchestra at Tanglewood on August 14, 1942 (Toscanini and the NBC Symphony had broadcast the American premiere the previous month); and, pictured here, the War Bond Concert given by Serge Koussevitzky and the BSO at the Boston Garden on December 14, 1944. More than 13,000 people purchased $9,952,122 in war bonds to attend this benefit concert, representing, at the time, the largest amount ever raised at a single indoor orchestral performance in this country.
