Reis, Public Relations An Inside View The current exhibit in the Cohen Wing display cases features photographs by two former BSO members—George Zazofsky (BSO violinist, 1941- 70) and Gordon Hallberg (BSO bass trombonist, 1971-85)—showcasing their talent as photogra- phers and providing a behind-the-scenes look at the life of BSO players. Their photographs from rehearsals and recording sessions provide candid glimpses of Leonard Bern- stein, Jascha Heifetz, Gregor Piatigorsky, and many others. Pictured at left are BSO violinist Victor Manusevitch and composer Dimitri Shostakovich during a 1959 reception for five Soviet composers who came to hear their works performed by the BSO; at right are Charles Munch and pianist Van Cliburn at the time of a 1958 recording session. The BSO Archives are grateful to Erika Zazofsky Goldberg and Gordon Hallberg for bringing these photographs to our attention and making them available for this exhibit.
