Boston Symphony Orchestra Concert Programs, Season 89, 1969-1970 BOSTON SYMPHONY FOUNDED IN 1881 BY HENRY LEE HIGGINSON FRIDAY—SATURDAY 2 CAMBRIDGE 1 TUESDAY B 1 EIGHTY-NINTH SEASON 1969-1970 MHMMJV , Exquisite Sound From the palaces of ancient Egypt to the concert halls 7 of our modern cities, the wondrous music of the harp has compelled attention from all peoples and all countries. Through this passage of time many changes have been made in the original design. The early instruments shown in drawings on the tomb of Rameses II (1292-1225 B.C.) were richly decorated but lacked the fore-pillar. Later the "Kinner" developed by the Hebrews took the form as we know it today. The pedal harp was invented about 1720 by a Bavarian named Hochbrucker and through this ingenious device it be- came possible to play in eight major and five minor scales complete. Today the harp is an important and familiar instrument providing the "Exquisite Sound" and special effects so important to modern orchestration and arrange- ment. The certainty of change makes necessary a continuous review of your insurance protection. We welcome the opportunity of providing this service for your business or personal needs.

Something tells us his Will is not up to date. It's not something he's really conscious of. In fact, he would probably be surprised to find out how many things the Will ignores: his children, for one thing. The summer place in Maine, for another. And all the other things he and his wife have accumulated over the years. If he should die, it could be quite a mess. You'd be surprised how many people are in this boat. And that's a constant source of amazement to us, since it's so simple for a man to keep his Will up to date. If you haven't reviewed your Will lately, it might be a good idea to set up an appointment with your lawyer this week. And if you think there might be a place in the picture for Old Colony as executor or trustee, we'd be glad to talk it over.

  • PROGRAM NOTES Gustav Mahler Symphony No. 1 in D Major
    PROGRAM NOTES by Phillip Huscher Gustav Mahler Born July 7, 1860, Kalischt, Bohemia. Died May 18, 1911, Vienna, Austria. Symphony No. 1 in D Major Mahler did most of the work on his First Symphony in February and March of 1888, incorporating music that had been written much earlier. He revised the score on several occasions. The first performance was given on November 20, 1889, in Budapest, with the composer conducting. The score calls for four flutes and three piccolos, four oboes and english horn, four clarinets, two E-flat clarinets and bass clarinet, three bassoons and contrabassoon, seven horns, four trumpets, three trombones and tuba, timpani, bass drum, cymbals, triangle, tam-tam, harp, and strings. Performance time is approximately fifty-seven minutes. The Chicago Symphony Orchestra's first subscription concert performances of Mahler's First Symphony were given at Orchestra Hall on November 6 and 7, 1914, with Frederick Stock conducting. Our most recent subscription concert performances were given on April 5, 6, 7, and 10, 2007, with Gustavo Dudamel conducting. The Orchestra first performed this symphony at the Ravinia Festival on July 19, 1949, with William Steinberg conducting, and most recently on June 24, 2005, with James Conlon conducting. When Alma Schindler first met Gustav Mahler, whom she later married, she could only remember how much she had disliked his First Symphony. She wasn't alone. The history of this symphony, even into relatively recent times, is one of misunderstanding and rejection. The first performance, in Budapest in 1889, was greeted with indifference, bewilderment, and, in the words of the local critic, "a small, but, for all that, audible element of opposition." Mahler seldom understood the animosity his music aroused.
