The higher or smaller instruments were named by the French "haulx-bois" or "hault- bois" which was transcribed by the Italians into oboe which name is now used in English, German and Italian to distinguish the smallest instrument • In a symphony orchestra, it usually gives the pitch to the other instruments • Is it time for you to take note of your insurance needs? • We welcome the opportunity to analyze your present program and offer our professional service to provide you with intelligent, complete protection.

Moreover, the collaboration here is one that is es- pecially appropriate, as both are masters of the Romantic repertoire and style. Brahms' First Concerto is a "big" concerto, originally con- ceived as a symphony, that imposes heavy demands on both soloist and orchestra. Cliburn, Leinsdorf and the Boston Sym- phony meet this challenge in a re- cording that captures all the essen- tial passion and intensity of Brahms' score. This first collaboration between Cliburn, Leinsdorf and the Boston Symphony is also a "first" in two other respects : it is the first record- ing of this work by Cliburn, and the first recording of this impor- tant work in Dynagroove sound.

To such a loyal public much gratitude [5] is due. This letter is first and foremost a thank-you, or, if you please, a return acknowledgment. (onrad Your support gives us freedom to plan artistically instead of looking anxiously handler to the day-to-day box office. Your trust liberates musical policies from that kind of reliance. Feeling gratitude and re- sponsibility, I want to tell a few things which might be of interest as a subject for reflection during the summer months. Our activities are many. Even those among you who attend twenty-four pro- grams each season witness only about one-fifth of all the concerts which the Boston Symphony Orchestra plays each winter. The scheduled events for the Orchestra in Boston and out-of-town amount to one hundred and fifteen and one Pension Fund concert, these in ad- dition to the Pops, Tanglewood and Es- planade seasons. Our regular work in- cludes four or five rehearsals each week, recording sessions, and a weekly "free day" which the members of the Orches- tra must have if they are to meet the requirements of their most distinguished and exceedingly taxing job. (There is also the new schedule of the Boston Symphony Chamber Players.) This is what happens in all fields of endeavor, once you get into the upper reaches of women the "major league." When I first came to Boston I prom- salute the ised to plan programs on a long-range basis, to give our audiences an overall costume in acquaintance with music of the last two hundred years, to avoid excessive spe- Spring navy cialization, to combine the great master- works with new music and with some- what lesser-known works of the past repertoire. I have been helped, and in- deed much cheered, by a great volume Refreshing Spring-weight master of personal correspondence from listen- sheer, eloquent ribbon flowers ers—by no means all of them approving and cartridge pleating trimming everything performed.

[6] . There are two overriding motivations for this program policy: the desire to keep the greatest of the masterworks as fresh as they were on the day when the 1 world first heard them; and to establish the Boston Symphony Orchestra as one of the very few which play the most varied repertoire with complete stylistic differentiation. In a similar way, a great actor in the best tradition of repertory theatre can portray many roles of differ- ent styles, eras, and demands with equal conviction. The second objective is actually easier to obtain than the first. To keep the greatest masterworks fresh and to pre- vent their being taken for granted, to have all of us—performers and audi- ences alike—approach them as if they were new, requires an amount of pa- tience and understanding from all of you. It may seem to many members of the public a problematic procedure to spend some of our time in preparing and performing works which are pleasant and beautiful, but not necessarily great masterworks. It is so much easier, these arguments run, and so much more grati- fying to cultivate only the summit of the repertoire. Not so if we produce a minimum of twenty-four programs each year. I have made it my particular concern to keep sufficient space between performances of the four Brahms symphonies, the nine Beethoven symphonies, the three GAD! Could you believe it popular Tchaikovsky symphonies, and So this is what I get with similar "super" works of the symphonic little repertoire.

CommEntS by PhilliP huSChEr ne hundred years ago, the Chicago Symphony paid tribute Oto the centenary of the birth of Franz Liszt with the pro- gram of music Riccardo Muti conducts this week to honor the bicentennial of the composer’s birth. Today, Liszt’s stature in the music world seems diminished—his music is not all that regularly performed, aside from a few works, such as the B minor piano sonata, that have never gone out of favor; and he is more a name in the history books than an indispensable part of our concert life.

    NEW STYLE A A. A prophet may be without honor in his own country, but the litem&l)smlm PIANOS, on the contrary, are held in the highest esteem by all who know them. Mr. George W. Chadwick, Director of the New England Conserva- tory of Music, says of these pianos: " I wish to express my great satisfac- tion with the Grand Pianos of your manufacture, which I am now using. The tone is very musical, and seems to improve with use. The action is particularly even and firm, and I have never had a piano which stood so well in tune. The piano seems to combine power and beauty of tone to a remarkable extent, and I congratulate you on the production of so fine an instrument."
