The Junior Council is pleased to announce a dieter's delight for the holiday season. Their newest item, the Symphony Tin, will be available for sale at the BSO Gift Shop empty as well as full. This colorful, decorative box—a perfect replica of Symphony Hall made exclusively in England for the BSO— is ordinarily sold with 36 Symphony Mints inside for $18. But during the holiday season, it will be available without the Mints for $6.50. Either way, the Symphony Tin makes an outstanding personal or corporate holiday gift. Sale of the Symphony Mint, Bark, and Tin is a project of the Junior Council to benefit the Boston Symphony Orchestra; the project is now in its fourth season. The Symphony Mint is an exclusive formulation of dark sweet chocolate laced with creme de menthe. The Symphony Bark is a miniature bar of dark, rich chocolate stuffed with whole toasted almonds. Both are embossed with the BSO colophon and are individually wrapped in gold foil. These products are made expressly for the BSO by Harbor Sweets of Marblehead. The Symphony Mint is available in the following quantities: Tasters, 3 pieces at $2.00; Hostess Box, 12 pieces at $6.00; Gift Box, 30 pieces at $12; and the filled Symphony Tin, 36 pieces at $18.00. Symphony Bark Tasters offer 2 pieces for $3.00; a Hostess Box of the Symphony Bark includes 8 pieces for $10.00. All of these items are available at the Junior Council table in the Massachusetts Avenue corridor of Symphony Hall near the elevator, and the larger items are available at the BSO Gift Shop, open during November and December.

  • Richard Strauss's Ariadne Auf Naxos
    Richard Strauss’s Ariadne auf Naxos - A survey of the major recordings by Ralph Moore Ariadne auf Naxos is less frequently encountered on stage than Der Rosenkavalier or Salome, but it is something of favourite among those who fancy themselves connoisseurs, insofar as its plot revolves around a conceit typical of Hofmannsthal’s libretti, whereby two worlds clash: the merits of populist entertainment, personified by characters from the burlesque Commedia dell’arte tradition enacting Viennese operetta, are uneasily juxtaposed with the claims of high art to elevate and refine the observer as embodied in the opera seria to be performed by another company of singers, its plot derived from classical myth. The tale of Ariadne’s desertion by Theseus is performed in the second half of the evening and is in effect an opera within an opera. The fun starts when the major-domo conveys the instructions from “the richest man in Vienna” that in order to save time and avoid delaying the fireworks, both entertainments must be performed simultaneously. Both genres are parodied and a further contrast is made between Zerbinetta’s pragmatic attitude towards love and life and Ariadne’s morbid, death-oriented idealism – “Todgeweihtes Herz!”, Tristan und Isolde-style. Strauss’ scoring is interesting and innovative; the orchestra numbers only forty or so players: strings and brass are reduced to chamber-music scale and the orchestration heavily weighted towards woodwind and percussion, with the result that it is far less grand and Romantic in scale than is usual in Strauss and a peculiarly spare ad spiky mood frequently prevails.
