To celebrate Mr. Ozawa's twenty-fifth anniversary as music director, the BSO Archives has mounted an exhib- it in the Cohen Wing display cases examining and illustrating not only many highlights of his tenure with the BSO, but also his education and early life, his experiences as a student at Tanglewood, and his appointment as the orchestra's thirteenth music director. In addition to items preserved in the BSO Archives, the exhibit also draws on materials lent by the Ozawa family. Programs copyright ©1999 Boston Symphony Orchestra. Inc.

Harry T. Burleigh was a star student of Dvorákˇ at the National Conservatory in New York. A talented composer and singer, he exposed the Czech composer to American spirituals and was in turn encouraged by Dvorákˇ to perform his native African American folk music. Two generations later, Copland and Bernstein conceived a clean, clear American sound that conveys the wonder and awe of open spaces and endless possibilities.

He had recorded Prokofiev’s Second Violin Concerto for RCA (with the Boston Symphony Orchestra under Erich Leinsdorf) as early as 1966, and Mendelssohn’s Concerto (with the London Symphony Orchestra and André Previn; see volume 5) six years later. He had also gone on to commit a further interpretation of each work to disc: the Prokofiev with the BBC Symphony Orchestra and Gennady Rozhdestvensky in 1980 (see volume 29), the Mendelssohn with the Amsterdam Concertgebouw and Bernard Haitink in 1983 (volume 33).

U-M freshman Brandon Blazo performed the pre-concert carillon recital. FORTIETH CONCERT OF THE 114TH SEASON THIRTIETH ANNUAL CHAMBER ARTS SERIES PROGRAM NOTES Serenade No. 12 in E-flat major, K. 375 Mozart Mozart wrote this Serenade in Vienna, in October 1781, for six instruments - pairs of clarinets, horns, and bassoons. A few months later he added parts for a pair of oboes and tightened up the form considerably. On November 3, 1781, he wrote to his father that the piece had so pleased the players (of the first version) that to celebrate his name day, "at eleven o'clock at night I was treated to a serenade of my own composition. The six men who played it are poor beggars, but they play very well together. They came to the center of my courtyard, and just as I was about to undress they surprised me most pleasantly with the E-flat chord. [Abridged]" These "social" works are not unlike his symphonies, except that they are usually looser in form and lighter in tone, and they may have extra slow movements or minuets or both.

  • A Collection of Stan Ruttenberg's Reviews of Mahler Recordings From
    A collection of Stan Ruttenberg’s Reviews of Mahler Recordings from the Archives Of the Colorado MahlerFest (Symphonies 3 through 7 and Kindertotenlieder) Colorado MahlerFest XIII Recordings of the Mahler Third Symphony Of the fifty recordings listed in Peter Fülöp’s monumental discography (up to 1955, and many more have been added since then), I review here fifteen at my disposal, leaving out two by Boulez and one by Scherchen as not as worthy as the others. All of these fifteen are recommendable, all with fine points, all with some or more weaknesses. I cannot rank them in any numerical order, but I can say that there are four which I would rather hear more than the others — my desert island choices. I am glad to have the others for their own particular merits. Getting ready for MFest XIII we discovered that the matter of score versions and parts is complex. I use the Dover score, no date but attributed to Universal Edition; my guess this is an early version. The Kalmus edition is copied from who knows which published version. Then there is the “Critical Edition,” prepared by the Mahler Gesellschaft, Vienna. I can find two major discrepancies between the Dover/Universal and the Critical (I) the lack of horns at RN25-5, doubling the string riff and (ii) only two harp glissandi at the middle of RN28, whereas the Critical has three. Our first horn found another. Both the Dover and Critical have the horn doublings, written ff at RN 67, but only a few conductors observe them.

  • Decca Discography
    DECCA DISCOGRAPHY >>2 GREAT BRITAIN: ffrr, 1944-57 In a business where exclusive contracts were the norm, it was very difficult for a newcomer to become established and Decca’s initial roster of classical artists was unable to compete with established rivals. In March 1932 an agreement with Polydor provided access to a substantial catalogue of German artists and a year later the company virtually abandoned classical recording to concentrate on dance bands. The move to Thames Street Studios provided more scope for orchestral sessions and a bold policy of recording contemporary British music enhanced the label’s reputation. The newly formed Boyd Neel Orchestra was signed up in 1934, followed by the Griller String Quartet in 1935, Clifford Curzon in 1937, Peter Pears in 1944, Kathleen Ferrier in 1946 and Julius Katchen in 1947. War broke the link with Polydor, leaving Decca with a respectable catalogue of chamber music, but little symphonic repertoire. Armed with ffrr technology, the company began to remedy this in 1944, engaging Sidney Beer’s National Symphony Orchestra until 1947 and the misleadingly named New Symphony Orchestra (it had made its first recordings in 1909) from 1948. Neither developed into a house band to rival EMI’s Philharmonia and, with the Royal Philharmonic also exclusive to EMI, Decca had to resort to the LSO and the LPO, both in rather run-down condition in the post-war years. Meanwhile every opportunity was taken to impress visiting continental orchestras with ffrr sessions and it was evident that the company intended to transfer much of its symphonic work to Paris, Amsterdam, Geneva and Vienna as soon as practicable.
