In December he returned to Europe to conduct in Switzerland, and from there flew to Tokyo to conduct several concerts by the Japan Philharmonic Orchestra. He returned to Boston in January to con- duct the concerts of three weeks as guest, and subsequently led the orchestras in Chicago, Pittsburgh and Philadelphia.

AREA CODE 413 — 6 JOHANN SEBASTIAN BACH Born in Eisenach, March 21, 1685; died in Leipzig, July 28, 1750 THE SIX BRANDENBURG CONCERTOS The set of six concert! grossi can be looked upon as an experiment in various instrumental combinations. They can also be looked upon as the most variegated expression of a tradition-bound form, the most eloquent and per- fectly modeled of its kind, and indeed the last, for the concerto grosso as a give and take between a large and small group with harpsichord continuo was soon to be superseded by the virtuoso concerto with a soloist and an accom- panying orchestra. Bach and his contemporary Handel both owed much to their Italian predecessors Corelli and Vivaldi. Handel's concertos hold their own with Bach's in modern performance, but they are looser in form and far less adven- turous in the use of wind instruments. Bach's Third and Sixth Brandenburg Concertos are for strings only, but are not in the least similar. In the Third Concerto Bach divides his forces into three complete and equal orchestras. At times, as in the first exposition, the three parts for each kind of instrument are in unison, making an ensemble of only three distinct parts (though the players themselves are distributed), giving a special sense of integration and solidity. At times the three parts CARNEGIE HALL EASTMAN THEATE R „. THE SUMME nter •in theW' concerts.

Using brief rhythmic figures, Bach estab- lishes and sustains an astonishing vitality in their varied manipulation. Unlike the Third Concerto, which has no solo parts, the Sixth Concerto is written for a pair of distinct and dueting viole da braccia, a pair of dueting viole da gamba, and a cello with a bass function. (The viola da braccia was the viola of Bach's time; cellos now usually replace the obsolete viola da gamba, a six-stringed "leg viol.") The First Concerto exploits other unusual instruments—two high French horns in F and a violino piccolo doubling the first violin part. The Second Concerto has four soloists with ripieno strings, a high trumpet in F, a flute, an oboe and a violin. The Fourth Concerto combines a principal violin part with two jiauti d'echo, flutes blown at the end, simulated by the modern recorders. The Fifth Concerto has for its star the harpsichord, here quite divorced from its humbler continuo role. It is matched with a principal violin and a flute. THE SUITES The suites, pamtas, and "overtures," so titled by Bach were no more than variants upon the suite form. When Bach labeled each of his orchestral suites as an "ouverture," there is no doubt that the French ouverture of Lully was in his mind. This composer, whom Bach closely regarded, had developed the operatic overture into a larger form with a slow introduction followed by ROUTE 20 HANCOCK SHAKER VILLAGE 5 Miles West of Pittsfield 7 furnished buildings open, crafts demonstrations, herb garden in preparation, famous round stone barn DAILY 9:30 TO 5:00 ADULTS $1 CHILDREN 50* BENJAMIN BRITTEN LENOX NATIONAL WAR BANK REQUIEM General Banking Service VOCAL SCORE 12.50 Travellers Cheques STUDY SCORE 10.00 Safe Deposit Boxes BOOSEY and HAWKES — 8 — a lively allegro of fugal character and a reprise.

Fisher Center for the Performing Arts at Bard College The Richard B. Fisher Center for the Performing Arts, an environment for world-class artistic presentation in the Hudson Valley, was designed by Frank Gehry and opened in 2003. Risk-taking performances and provocative programs take place in the 800-seat Sosnoff Theater, a proscenium-arch space; and in the 220-seat Theater Two, which features a flexible seating configuration. The Center is home to Bard College’s Theater and Dance Programs, and host to two annual summer festivals: SummerScape, which offers opera, dance, theater, operetta, film, and cabaret; and the Bard Music Festival, which celebrates its 22nd year in August, with “Sibelius and His World.” The Center bears the name of the late Richard B. Fisher, the former chair of Bard College’s Board of Trustees. This magnificent building is a tribute to his vision and leadership. The outstanding arts events that take place here would not be possible without the contributions made by the Friends of the Fisher Center.

  • Weekend Getaways to Berkshires, MA from Boston Or New York | Fodor's
    Arts and Culture Weekend Getaway in the Berkshire Mountains Distance from New York City: 169 miles Best time: May to November Best for: Girl's GetawayArts and CultureFood and Wine It's little wonder that culture hounds makes their way to Western Massachusetts each summer. The hamlets nestled in the Berkshire Mountains are blessed with terrific art, music, theater, and antiquing. Here, eight museums join renowned stage productions and dance festivals, plus a little music venue called Tanglewood. All that, plus a gorgeous natural setting of mountains and meadows—accessible on foot, bike, raft, balloon, horse, or even llama—is enough to uplift spirits. And there's no shortage of spas here, in the event you need extra help working out the kinks. –By Lisa Oppenheimer Friday The Berkshire Mountains Cheat Sheet View a printable list of all sights, restaurants, entertainment, and hotels from this itinerary. View 1. Get your bearings by venturing into Downtown Lenox. Poke your head in and around the shops and galleries located along the main thoroughfares of Main, Franklin, Church, and West streets. 2. Enjoy a lovely dinner in the outdoor courtyard of Cafe Lucia, a Berkshires favorite that's been dishing up Italian specialties based on local ingredients for the last three decades. 3. In season, there's nothing more soothing than al fresco entertainment on the historic grounds of Tanglewood. (Even with no show on, it's still worth visiting to experience the setting.) Classical greats perform at the Koussevitzky Shed, while smaller shows go on at the newer Ozawa Hall. Economical lawn seats are almost always available on the fly except during big events such as James Taylor nights.

  • Haydn's Symphony No. 94 'Surprise'
    Haydn’s Symphony IB No. 94 ‘Surprise’ Hanh Doan is a former AST and head of music, and currently works as a part-time music teacher at Beaumont School in Hanh Doan St Albans. She is the author of various books, and writes articles and resources for Music Teacher magazine, exam boards and other music education publishers. Introduction aydn’s ‘Surprise’ Symphony is one of the International Baccalaureate’s prescribed works for 2020-2021 and will feature in the listening paper. Students will have to answer questions about Hthe Symphony in terms of analysis, and if they are students doing music Higher level, they will need to compare elements from this work with the other prescribed work, Rachmaninov’s Rhapsody on a Theme of Paganini. This resource will give a detailed analysis of the work by movement, including the notable features of each of the elements. Context Haydn is often regarded as the ‘father of the symphony’, and over the 40 years in which he wrote his 106 symphonies, the nature of the genre changed dramatically, from a work that served a variety of musical and social functions to a genre that would become central to musical life for the next two centuries. Haydn’s output proves he was extraordinary at making this transition, and throughout his career he gradually reshaped the nature of the symphony, providing a model for future composers of the genre. Haydn’s symphonies are often separated into periods of time or places over the course of his career: Ɂ The symphonies for Eisenstadt (1761-5) Ɂ Esterház and the Advent of Sturm und Drang (1766-74) Ɂ The symphonies of 1775-84 Ɂ The Paris symphonies (1785-6) Ɂ The Tost symphonies (1787) Ɂ The symphonies for Comte d’Ogny (1788-9) Ɂ The ‘Salomon’ symphonies (London, 1791-5) Haydn wrote his ‘Surprise’ Symphony in 1791 for a concert series in London during one of his first visits to England.
