Boston Symphony Orchestra Concert Programs, Season 87, 1967 BOSTON SYMPHONY ORCHESTRA FOUNDED IN 1881 BY HENRY LEE HIGGINSON //Z£ Up t CAMBRIDGE SERIES EIGHTY-SEVENTH SEASON 1967-1968 EI' Exquisite B' Sound From the palaces of ancient Egypt to the concert halls of our modern cities, the wondrous music of the harp has compelled attention from all peoples and all countries. Through this passage of time many changes have been made in the original design. The early instruments shown in drawings on the tomb of Rameses II (1292-1225 B.C.) were richly decorated but lacked the fore-pillar. Later the "Kinner" developed by the Hebrews took the form as we know it today. The pedal harp was invented about 1720 by a Bavarian named Hochbrucker and through this ingenious device it be- came possible to play in eight major and five minor scales complete. Today the harp is an important and familiar instrument providing the "Exquisite Sound" and special effects so important to modern orchestration and arrange- ment.

He finished the Prague Symphony in 1786, and it was first performe at Prague on January 19 1787. The Boston Symphony Orchestra, conducted b George Henschel, first performed the Symphony on January 27 1882. 'The 6th [December 1786] A symphony. — 2 violini, 2 viole, 2 flauti 2 oboe, 2 corni, 2 fagotti, 2 clarini, timpany e Basso.' In this way followed by the opening bars of its slow introduction in short score Mozart entered in his autograph List of all my works the symphom which has since become known as the 'Prague'. In Germany it i often referred to as the 'Symphony without minuet' — appropriate!' enough, but this title could equally well be applied to the 'Paris' am to many of Mozart's earlier symphonies which are more obvious! Italian overtures in their fast-slow-fast pattern of three movement? It is true that the 'Prague' is the only one of the six symphonies Mozart's Vienna years to lack a minuet, but considerations of tim are certainly not responsible for the three-movement form, and it i indeed highly questionable whether one is right to talk of a 'lack' a* all in so carefully : integrated and superb a work. The summer and autumn of 1786 was not a particularly settled o happy period for Mozart, yet between June and the end of the year h produced such masterpieces (this list is not complete) as the E fla piano quartet, the fourth horn concerto, the G major trio K. 496, th F major sonata for piano duet, the clarinet trio, the D major strim quartet K. 499, the B flat trio, the wonderful but often underestimate< C major piano concerto

The New York Philharmonic has welcomed the Lunar New Year with an annual celebration since 2012. Chinese American composer Zhou Tian’s Gift, written for Long Yu and the Shanghai Symphony Orchestra, reflects “my own musical identity after 18 years of living abroad.” Korean composer Texu Kim shares his name with a famous Korean table tennis player; Spin-Flip — the title of which alludes to both astrophysical phenomena and table tennis techniques — “conveys the driving energy of a (good) Ping-Pong match … its alternating harmonic pattern and somewhat random form reflect the alternation of service and unpredictable result, respectively.” American violinist Gil Shaham recorded The Butterfly Lovers, which reflects both Chinese and Western traditions and was banned during the Cultural Revolution, with the Singapore Symphony Orchestra in 2007.

How Professional Pianists Experience Music Performance Anxiety by Erin Dempsey and Gilles Comeau, University of Ottawa One of the most important aspects of a professional career in music is public performance. Feelings of nervousness commonly accompany the musician before, during, or even after a performance. For some individuals, this becomes an “exaggerated, often incapacitating fear of public performance” (Wilson & Roland, 2002, p. 47), which is classified as music performance anxiety (MPA). A comprehensive definition from Kenny (2011) states that music performance anxiety is “an experience of persistent anxious apprehension related to musical performance and is manifested through a combination of psychological, physiological, cognitive, and behavioral symptoms. It often occurs in situations involving an evaluative threat (audience)” (p.
