Hubbard, Hall Services Commemorating World War II Throughout the 1994-95 season the Boston Sym- phony Orchestra will be commemorating the 50th anniversary of the end of World War II. To mark this anniversary, the Boston Symphony Orchestra Ar- chives has mounted an exhibition in the two display cases in the Huntington Avenue corridor of the Cohen Wing. The first case holds a display entitled "Silenced Voices: Music Banned by the Nazis," conceived by BSO violist Mark Ludwig, who is mounting a large-scale exhibit under the same name at Brandeis University, sponsored by Brandeis and theTerezin Music Foundation (October 2-November 8). The second case holds a display entitled "The Boston Symphony Orchestra and World War II," which examines the activities of the BSO and Boston Pops prior to and during the United States involvement in the War. Drawing on photographs, programs, newspaper clippings, and other memorabilia preserved in the Boston Symphony Archives, the exhibit highlights, among other events, the "First Concert Performance in the Western Hemisphere" of Shostakovich's Seventh Symphony, given by theTMC Orchestra at Tanglewood on August 14, 1942 (Toscanini and the NBC Symphony had broadcast the American premiere the previous month); and, pictured here, the War Bond Concert given by Serge Koussevitzky and the BSO at the Boston Garden on December 14, 1944. More than 13,000 people purchased $9,952,122 in war bonds to attend this benefit concert, representing, at the time, the largest amount ever raised at a single indoor orchestral performance in this country.

  • The 10Th Brian Law Opera Competition Gerald Finley, Honorary Patron
    The National Capital Opera Society presents The 10th Brian Law Opera Competition Gerald Finley, Honorary Patron Frédérique Drolet Bethany Horst Arminè Kassabian Erinne-Colleen Laurin Emanuel Lebel Jana Miller Philippe Sly, guest recitalist Rob Clipperton, host 19 November 2011 First Unitarian Congregation 30 Cleary Avenue, Ottawa The National Capital Opera Society The National Capital Opera Society was founded by volunteer opera lovers in 1983 upon the cancellation of the summer opera festival at the National Arts Centre. The Society’s original objective was to work towards the complete restoration of the festival. Today, the Society fosters interest in opera with opera-on-DVD showings, newsletters and social events for members. To aid young, gifted singers of the National Capital Region, the Society established the biennial Brian Law Opera Scholarship Competition (now called simply the Brian Law Opera Competition) and the associated Brian Law Fund, which provides the financial support for it. The Society also helps young singers striving to gain experience and recognition in opera through its contributions to Opera Lyra Ottawa’s Opera Studio and generally supports operatic events in the National Capital Region. We always welcome new members who share our passion for opera and join us in our activities. The Tenth Brian Law Competition is dedicated to the memory of Bobbi Cain Bobbi was one of the founders of the National Capital Opera Society and served as its president through most of the years between 1983 and 2005 when poor health forced her to resign. In 1991 she spearheaded the move to establish the Brian Law Opera Scholarship.
