This series marks the BSO’s foray into satellite radio, gaining exposure for the orchestra to a much broader national audience as it enters a new artistic chapter under Marin Alsop. The historic inaugural concert marking Maestra Alsop’s directorship features John Adams’ Fearful Symmetries, and a hallmark of Alsop’s repertoire, Gustav Mahler’s Symphony No. 5, and will be broadcast live on XM Classics from the Music Center at Strathmore in N. Bethesda, Md. at 8 p.m. ET on Thursday, September 27, with an encore broadcast on Sunday, September 30, at 3 p.m. ET.

  • Timothy Burris—Baroque Lute
    Early Music in the Chapel at St Luke's Les Goûts Réunis Timothy Neill Johnson—tenor & Timothy Burris—Lute with Michael Albert—violin & Eliott Cherry—'cello So wünsch ich mir zu guter letzt ein selig Stündlein J.S. Bach (1685 - 1750) Jesu, meines Herzens Freud Bist du bei mir Der Tag ist hin Et è per dunque vero Claudio Monteverdi (1567 - 1643) Sonata seconda Dario Castello (c. 1590 – c. 1658) Prelude Amila François Dufaut (1600 – 1671) Tombeau de Mr Blanrocher Music for a while Henry Purcell (1659 – 1695) Evening Hymn Sweeter than roses Domine, Dominus noster André Campra (1660 – 1744) The Composers J.S. Bach The three chorales with figured bass included here are from the Gesangbuch published by Georg Christian Schemelli in 1736. The 69 pieces attributed to Bach in the mammoth Gesangbuch (which contains no fewer than 950 pieces!) are marked by quiet and pious sentiments, unobtrusive and effortless harmonies. The aria “Bist du bei mir” (BWV 508) was part of Gottfried Heinrich Stölzel's opera Diomedes, oder die triumphierende Unschuld that was performed in Bayreuth on November 16, 1718. The opera score is lost. The aria had been part of the Berlin Singakademie music library and was considered lost in the Second World War, until it was rediscovered in 2000 in the Kiev Conservatory. The continuo part of BWV 508 is more agitated and continuous in its voice leading than the Stölzel aria; it is uncertain who provided it, as the entry in the Notebook is by Anna Magdalena Bach herself. Claudio Monteverdi Claudio Monteverdi, the oldest of five children, was born in Cremona, where he was part of the cathedral choir and later studied at the university.

    THE MARKETPLACE HOW WELL DID EDISON RECORDS SELL? During the latter part of 1919 Thomas A. Edison, Inc. began to keep cumulative sales figures for those records that were still available. The documents were continued into 1920 and then stopped. While the documents included sales figures for all series of discs time allowed me to copy only those figures for the higher priced classical series. Thus the present article includes the 82,000 ($2.00); 82,500 ($2.50); 83,000 ($3.00) and 84,000 ($4.00) series. Should there be sufficient interest it may be possible to do the other series at a later date. While the document did list some of the special Tone-Test records pressing figures were included for only two of them. I have arbitrarily excluded them and propose to discuss the Edison Tone Tests at a later date. The documents also originally included supplementary listings, which, for the sake of convenience, have been merged into the regular listings. The type copy of the major portion of the listings has been taken from regular Edison numerical catalogs and forms the framework of my forthcoming Complete Edison Disc Numerical Catalog. Several things may be noted: 1) Many of the sales figures seem surprisingly small and many of the records must be classed as rarities; 2) Deletion was not always because of poor sales-mold damage also played a part; 3) Records were retained even with extremely disappointing sales. Without a knowledge of the reason for discontinuance we cannot assume anything concerning records that had already been discontinued.
