Beethoven's Symphony No.9 A COMMUNITY SUPPORTED ORCHESTRA Beethoven's Symphony No.9 August 2, 2017 7 pm at the DCR’s Hatch Shell SPONSORED BY: Dear Concertgoer, We are thrilled that you have chosen to spend a summer evening with us at the DCR’s Hatch Memorial Shell on the banks of the Charles River for one of our 2017 series of free orchestral concerts. Last year, we celebrated our 15th anniversary as the Boston Landmarks Orchestra, and this year, we celebrate our 10th anniversary performing at this iconic and historic venue on the Esplanade. Our mission is to make orchestral music free and accessible to everyone in the greater Boston community, and visitors from near and far. We are proud of our Music Director Christopher Wilkins’s artistic integrity and musical leadership, as well as his “strategy of participation” to engage with community partners from all over our city, and youth and adults in every Boston neighborhood. We have grown fond of repeating the phrase “our concerts are free, but they are not free to produce!” The members of our orchestra are among Boston’s finest, most highly trained professional musicians. We provide the best sound engineering possible for our venue. And we invest significantly in our education and community outreach programs and our community partnerships. Please consider a suggested contribution of $20 to the Boston Landmarks Orchestra to help us continue this summertime tradition for many years to come, adding immeasurably to the quality of life in Boston. You may return the enclosed reply envelope and your contribution to one of our volunteers in blue t-shirts or drop it off at our Information Tent. Visit www.landmarksorchestra.org/donate to donate securely online. Contributions may also be mailed to: Boston Landmarks Orchestra, 214 Lincoln Street, Suite 331, Boston, MA 02134 Please enjoy the evening, and we hope to see you again soon.

The Orchestra—made up of some of Boston’s most accomplished professional musicians—uses great symphonic music as a means of gathering together people of all backgrounds and ages in joyful collaboration. The Orchestra regularly collaborates with a range of cultural and social service organizations to ensure participation across ethnic, economic, and cultural divides. The Boston Landmarks Orchestra is committed to BREAKING DOWN BARRIERS to access for people with disabilities. It offers braille, large-print, and text-to-speech programs, assisted listening devices, and ambassadors to greet and assist people at a handicapped drop-off point. The Orchestra works with American Sign Language (ASL) interpreters as performers at select concerts. Rather than providing direct translation of the spoken word, interpreters communicate the feeling of the music and the remarks given during the concert.

  • Many Thanks to Many People by Paul R. Judy
    HarmonyTM FORUM OF THE SYMPHONY ORCHESTRA INSTITUTE NUMBER 7 • OCTOBER 1998 Many Thanks to Many People To subscribe to Harmony or provide support to the Institute, contact: Symphony Orchestra Institute 1618 Orrington Avenue, Suite 318 Evanston, IL 60201 Tel: 847.475.5001 Fax: 847.475.2460 e-mail: [email protected] www.soi.org ©1998 by the Symphony Orchestra Institute. All rights reserved. vii Many Thanks to Many People The Symphony Orchestra Institute was activated in the fall of 1995 as a catalyst for organizational change within the community of North American symphony orchestra organizations. The Institute was a new resident moving into a long- established and tightly bounded community; we were greeted with caution. As we pursued our mission and initiated early programs, we needed to build the trust of many constituencies. After three years, we believe that trust has been established, and that a groundswell of interest and enthusiasm is building in the direction of change which the Institute has fostered. The momentum of this wave arises from the breadth of involvement of many people who have helped undergird the Institute during the past three years. This is a note of thanks to all those people. The Institute’s acceptance by the leadership of other industry institutions was vital. Special personal thanks go to Brad Buckley (Saint Louis Symphony Orchestra), former chair of the International Conference of Symphony and Opera Musicians (ICSOM), his successor Robert Levine (Milwaukee Symphony Orchestra), and their colleagues on the ICSOM governing board, for the early recognition of the Institute, its independence, and its unbiased interest in better- functioning symphony organizations.

  • Superb Sibelius
    Superb Sibelius Friday, May 12 10:30am Join the BPO in welcoming back guest conductor Christopher Wilkins and presenting the Buffalo debut of British pianist Mark Bebbington! Sibelius’ grand Symphony No. 2 forms the centerpiece of this program, as British pianist Mark Bebbington brings the work of often-overlooked English composer John Ireland to Kleinhans. REPERTOIRE Christopher Wilkins, conductor Mark Bebbington, piano WEBER Overture to Der Freischütz IRELAND Piano Concerto in E-Flat Major In tempo moderato Lento espressivo Allegretto giocoso INTERMISSION SIBELIUS Symphony No. 2 in D Major, Op. 43 I. Allegretto II. Tempo Andante, ma rubato III. Vivacissimo IV. Allegro moderato Overture to Der Freischütz: Carl Maria von Weber (1786-1826) Composed in 1820, 10 Minute Duration Weber’s opera Der Freischütz tells the age-old tale of making a deal with the devil in return for favors. In this situation, the protagonists make a deal with a Black Huntsmen in return for seven magic bullets that will always hit their mark. The catch is that bullet No. 7 will be guided by the Black Huntsmen himself. The Overture appropriately establishes all of the main themes of the opera from the ominous sketches and horn music meant to represent the Black Huntsmen to the soaring string and wind melody which represents the hero’s future bride. Piano Concerto in E-Flat Major: John Nicholson Ireland (1879-1962) Composed in 1930, 23 Minute Duration John Ireland’s Piano Concerto features a perfect blend of Romantic timbre and 20th century harmonies. The first movement expresses fragmentation of melodies with string as well as piano solos while the second movement pays lyrical homage to Chopin and Brahms with solo and orchestra interplay.

    Second Thoughts and Short Reviews: Spring 2020/#1B By Brian Wilson, Johan van Veen and David Barker This is the second part of Spring 2020/1. It’s indexed in the first part. Richard STRAUSS (1864-1949) Metamorphosen, TRV290 (1945) [28:43] Ludwig van BEETHOVEN (1770-1827) Symphony No.3 in E flat, Op. 55 ‘Eroica’ (1804) [46:32] Sinfonia Grange au Lac/Esa-Pekka Salonen rec. July 2018, La Grange au Lac, Évian, France. DDD. Reviewed as lossless (.wav) press preview ALPHA 544 [75:20] CD available from I mentioned this recording briefly in Autumn 2019/1 – I was waiting for a better (lossless) transfer than the low-rate mp3 which Outhere had originally sent and I received the wav version only at the last minute, as I was completing that edition. My only reservation was to Stream from wonder if there really was a clientele of those who wanted these two works together, but then I found myself comparing the mood of Furtwängler’s recording of Beethoven’s Fifth (1944) with Strauss’s Metamorphosen, a work which must have been gestating at around the same time and was performed the year after that recording. Also, I had forgotten that the Strauss contains a quotation from the Eroica, as if to call upon the spirit of Beethoven, lost in the war years. Thus, I have negated my own reservations about a recording which Michael Cookson reviewed favourably, prompted myself to look at it again, and now enjoy the coupling much more.
