Boston Symphony Orchestra Concert Programs, Season 129, 2009-2010, Subscription, Volume 01 BOSTON SYM PHONY ORCHESTRA 2009-2010 SEASON Opening Night At Symphony September 23, 2009 Season Sponsor: James Levine Music Director Bernard Haitink Conductor Emeritus UBS Seiji Ozawa Music Director Laureate Dip dyed "Brides de Gala" silk twill scarves. Boston 320 Boylston Street (617) 482-8707 Hermes.com I Welcome Back to Symphony Hall! Welcome to Opening Night of the 2009-10 Boston Symphony season. We are in for a musical feast this evening— and for the entire season. Under James Levine's unparalleled artistic lead- ership, our orchestra is providing us with one remarkable performance after another. Through concerts, recordings, education, and community outreach, and its world-class website, the BSO now reaches more than 17 million people each year. In addition to Chopin's Piano Concerto No. 2 played by the prodigious Evgeny Kissin, tonight's program brings back our renowned Ann Hobson Pilot, the recently retired BSO principal harpist of the BSO, as the featured soloist in the world premiere of John Williams's On Willows and Birches, written especially for her. With Debussy's La Mer and Berlioz's Roman Carnival Overture also being performed, tonight's colorful program sets the stage for a season filled with musical highlights. To name just a few, the orchestra will play music of Mozart, Mahler, Mendelssohn, Berlioz, and Ravel, as well as the complete cycle of nine Beethoven symphonies— a first for Maestro Levine and the BSO. The impressive array of guest conductors includes Sir Colin Davis, Christoph von Dohnanyi, and Sir Andrew Davis. And the roster of guest soloists truly whets the musical appetite and includes Renee Fleming, Stephanie Blythe, and Peter Serkin, as well as the BSO's own Steven Ansell and Elizabeth Rowe. A successful Opening Night only occurs when chaired by dedicated, inspiring, and tireless individuals. This year a wonderful benefactor committee was led by the unsurpassable John and Diddy Cullinane. They and their committee deserve our very special thanks for a record- breaking performance. Diddy has said that Opening Night at Symphony deserves to be the most important social event of Boston's fall season, and she, John, and her committee have proved she's right. I also want to salute the BSO's sponsors without whom this orchestra could simply not function. UBS is now in its seventh year as our season sponsor, and we are deeply grateful to them. As in years past, the Boston Symphony Association of Volunteers, led by BSAV President Aaron Nurick, has provided invaluable assistance in making this a special evening, and we also extend our thanks to them. Let me close this message as I normally do by encouraging all of you to return to Symphony Hall as often as possible during the upcoming season and to bring your family and friends with you. This year we have some new and exciting initiatives for young people. Occupying a unique place in the world of symphonic music, our beloved orchestra offers our city a listening this experience few other communities can equal. I hope you will take advantage of opportunity. Please have fun tonight— and every other time you come to Symphony Hall to delight in great music performed by one of the greatest orchestras in the world. Feel free to brag to your less fortunate friends in other cities. Edward H. Linde Chairman, Boston Symphony Orchestra Board of Trustees OPENING NIGHT WELCOME 1 IS3%«1 •;..

  • The Dallas Symphony Orchestra Presents: the Nature of Music May, 2021 Dear Fellow Educators
    The Dallas Symphony Orchestra Presents: The Nature of Music May, 2021 Dear Fellow Educators, As spring arrives each year, I am reminded of the powerful relationship between nature and music. Both start as a single seed (or note!) and go on to blossom into something beautiful. Each plant, like each piece of music, is both a continuation of what came before and the start of something new. With Earth Day just a few weeks before our May concert, we wanted to use this Youth Concert as a way to explore and honor our planet through the lens of classical music. During our program, The Nature of Music, you and your students will hear music inspired by rivers, wildflowers, birds, and a busy bumblebee! Musicians have often used the earth’s natural beauty as inspiration for their music, and they try to use musical sounds to paint a picture for our ears, much like an artist would use different colors to paint a picture for our eyes. Each lesson will help your students explore and experience this connection. This concert will be offered virtually (available May 16 – June 4) but we are also accepting reservations for in-person viewing! Our two back-to-back concerts will be on Wednesday, May 5 at 10am and 11:30am. Please contact me or email my colleague in sales, Sabrina Siggers (contact information below), to reserve your classes reservation. You can see up-to-date Meyerson safety protocol below. We humans have a responsibility to respect and care for animals, plants, and the earth’s natural resources.

  • TOCC 0285 Dayas Organ Booklet Copy
    WILLIAM HUMPHREYS DAYAS, ONE OF LISZT’S LAST PUPILS by Jan Lehtola William Humphreys Dayas (1863–1903) was one of the last stars of the Franz Liszt piano school. In music for the organ, he is a forgotten member of the circle which included Liszt and Reubke. His two organ sonatas, especially the Second, take their place in a series beginning with Liszt’s Fantasy and Fugue on the chorale ‘Ad nos, ad salutarem undam’ (1850) and Reubke’s Sonata Der 94ste Psalm (1857). Dayas lef published copies of his organ sonatas to Richard Faltin (1835–1918), organist of what was then St Nicholas’s Church (now Helsinki Cathedral), which is how they came to be in the Sibelius Academy Library, where I discovered them in 1997. Written in ink in the score are some minor amendments probably made by Dayas himself. I came across Dayas’ transcription of the Tème varié (originally for piano), by Arthur H. Bird – another long-forgotten composer – entirely accidentally in the British Library in London in 2013. Very few people are familiar with Dayas’ organ sonatas. In the early years of the twentieth century they featured in the repertoire of such Finnish organists as Faltin and Karl Sjöblom (1861–1939), but as far as I know, I am the only organist to have performed these peices since his own day. Wherever I have done so – at the Gewandhaus in Leipzig, St Tomas in Dresden and the Riga Dom, for example – they have met with astonishment and excitement, frstly because they are totally unfamiliar and secondly because they are so good.

  • Sullivan-Journal Nr. 10 (Dezember 2013)
    Sullivan-Journal Nr. 10 (Dezember 2013) Diese Ausgabe des Sullivan-Journals greift Themen auf, die im Mai nächsten Jahres mit dem Folgeband von SullivanPerspektiven weiter vertieft werden. Sullivans Erfahrungen in Leipzig spielen auch in dem erneut von Albert Gier, Meinhard Saremba und Benedict Taylor herausge- gebenen Buch SullivanPerspektiven II – Arthur Sullivans Bühnenwerke, Oratorien, Schau- spielmusik und Lieder eine Rolle, und zwar in einem Beitrag über die Einflüsse der deutschen Oper auf Sullivans Wirken in Großbritannien. Die Hintergrundinformationen zu der Kantate The Martyr of Antioch in diesem Journal bieten eine wesentliche Grundlage für die musikali- schen und literarischen Analysen dieses Werks in dem geplanten Buch. Und mit dem Beitrag von Klaus Aringer und Martin Haselböck ergänzen wir Roger Norringtons Essay aus dem ers- ten Band von SullivanPerspektiven über Sullivans Klangwelt. Die Hinweise zum Orchester in Weimar – das nicht allzu weit von Sullivans Studienort Leipzig entfernt liegt – und zur Instru- mentalentwicklung im 19. Jahrhundert tragen zu einem weiter reichenden Verständnis von Sul- livans musikalischen Erfahrungen bei. Darüber hinaus berichten wir über einen sensationellen Fund von Sullivan-Texten, die Jahr- zehnte lang der Aufmerksamkeit entgangen waren. Unser besonderer Dank für die Unterstützung bei der Recherche geht vor allem an die Kurato- rin Frances Barulich der Morgan Library in New York (Mary Flagler Cary Curator of Music Manuscripts and Printed Music, The Morgan Library & Museum), sowie an die
