You can also hear an informal discussion led by the B.S.O.'s Michael Steinberg, 45 minutes before the rehearsal begins. Seiji Ozawa Seiji Ozawa became Music Director of the Boston Symphony Orchestra in the fall of 1973. He is the thirteenth conductor of the Orchestra since its founding in 1881. He was born in Hoten, Manchuria in 1935, and studied both Western and Oriental music as a child. He attended Toho School of Music in Tokyo and graduated with first prizes in composition and conducting. Shortly after his graduation, he won first prize at the International Competition of Conducting at Besanqon, France, and was invited by Charles Munch, then Music Director of the Boston Symphony and a judge at the competition, to spend a summer studying at Tanglewood. In 1964 and for the next five seasons, Mr. Ozawa was Music Director of the Ravinia Festival. At the beginning of the 1965-66 season he became Music Director of the Toronto Symphony, a position he relinquished four seasons later to study and guest conduct. In 1970 he accepted the position of Artistic Director of the Berkshire Music Festival, and in December of the same year he began his inaugural season as Conductor and Music Director of the San Francisco Symphony Orchestra, titles that he held concurrently with his position as Music Director of the Boston Symphony. In the spring of 1976 he resigned his San Francisco position although he remained Honorary Conductor for the 1976-77 season. Mr. Ozawa pursues an active international career and is a regular and favorite guest conductor with the Berlin Philharmonic, the Orchestre de Paris, and at the Salzburg Festival each year. He has conducted at Covent Garden, and returns to Japan annually to conduct the New Japan Philharmonic and other orchestras. The newest items on his large and growing discography with the Boston Symphony, are Bartok's Miraculous Mandarin Suite, and Music for Strings, Percussion, and Celeste, and Tchaikovsky's Symphony No. 5 (all on Deutsche Grammophon), and Roger Sessions's When Lilacs Last in the Dooryard Bloom d New World Records). Seating within string sections follows a system of rotation. Since string players periodically occupy different chairs, the listing of string personnel after principal chairs is alphabetical.

  • ARSC Journal
    A Discography of the Choral Symphony by J. F. Weber In previous issues of this Journal (XV:2-3; XVI:l-2), an effort was made to compile parts of a composer discography in depth rather than breadth. This one started in a similar vein with the realization that SO CDs of the Beethoven Ninth Symphony had been released (the total is now over 701). This should have been no surprise, for writers have stated that the playing time of the CD was designed to accommodate this work. After eighteen months' effort, a reasonably complete discography of the work has emerged. The wonder is that it took so long to collect a body of information (especially the full names of the vocalists) that had already been published in various places at various times. The Japanese discographers had made a good start, and some of their data would have been difficult to find otherwise, but quite a few corrections and additions have been made and some recording dates have been obtained that seem to have remained 1.Dlpublished so far. The first point to notice is that six versions of the Ninth didn't appear on the expected single CD. Bl:lhm (118) and Solti (96) exceeded the 75 minutes generally assumed (until recently) to be the maximum CD playing time, but Walter (37), Kegel (126), Mehta (127), and Thomas (130) were not so burdened and have been reissued on single CDs since the first CD release. On the other hand, the rather short Leibowitz (76), Toscanini (11), and Busch (25) versions have recently been issued with fillers.

Mendelssohn composed his Overture to 'A Midsummer Night's Dream' Intermission at seventeen (1826), with a miraculous deftness and deli- cacy, an elfin imagination and humor then unmatched. Yet, near the end of his life (1843), Mendelssohn did match the Sibelius: Symphony No. 6 Op. 104 miracle. He was invited by the King of Prussia to compose incidental music for a Berlin production of Ein Sommernachts- I. Allegro molto moderato traum. His youthful enthusiasm for Shakespeare surged II.
