† Deceased Tanglewood

The Tanglewood Festival On August 13, 15, and 16, 1936, the Boston Symphony Orchestra, led by Serge Koussevitzky, gave its first concerts in the Berkshire Hills of western Massachusetts. Those outdoor concerts did not take place at Tanglewood, however, but under a large tent at Holmwood, a former Vanderbilt estate that later became The Center at Foxhollow. In fact, the first Berkshire Symphonic Festival had taken place two summers earlier, at Interlaken, when, organized by a group of music-loving Berkshire summer residents, three outdoor concerts were given by members of the New York Philharmonic led by composer/conductor Henry Hadley. But after a second series of concerts in 1935, plans for 1936 proved difficult, so the organizing committee instead approached Koussevitzky and the BSO’s Trustees, whose enthusiastic response led to the BSO’s first concerts in the Berkshires. In the winter of 1936, following that summer’s BSO concerts, Mrs. Gorham Brooks and Miss Mary Aspinwall Tappan offered Tanglewood, the Tappan family estate, with its buildings and 210 acres of lawns and meadows, as a gift to Koussevitzky and the orchestra. A two-weekend festival was planned for 1937, and on August 5 that year, an enthusiastic crowd assembled under a tent for the first Tanglewood concert, an all-Beethoven program. At the all-Wagner concert that opened the 1937 festival’s sec- ond weekend, rain and thunder twice interrupted the Rienzi Overture and necessitated the omission altogether of the Siegfried Idyll, music too gentle to be heard through the downpour. At the intermission, Miss Gertrude Robinson Smith, one of the festival’s founders, made an appeal to raise funds for the building of a permanent structure. The appeal was broadened by means of a printed circular handed out at the two remaining concerts, and within a short time enough money was raised to begin active planning for a “music pavilion.” Eliel Saarinen, the eminent architect selected by Koussevitzky, proposed an elaborate design that went not only far beyond the festival’s immediate needs, but also well beyond the $100,000 budget. When his second, simplified plans were also deemed too expensive, he wrote that if the Trustees insisted on remaining within their budget, they would have “just a shed...which any builder could accomplish without the aid of

A banner advertising the 1939 Berkshire Symphonic Festival (BSO Archives) an architect.” The Trustees then asked Stockbridge engineer Joseph Franz to simplify Saarinen’s plans further, and the “Shed” he erected—which remains, with modifica- tions, to this day—was inaugurated on August 4, 1938, with the first concert of that year’s festival. Except for the war years 1942-45, the Shed has resounded to the music of the Boston Symphony Orchestra every summer since, becom- ing almost a place of pilgrimage to millions of concertgoers. In 1940, the Berkshire Music Center (now the Tanglewood Music Center) began its operations. By 1941 the Theatre-Concert Hall, the Chamber , and several small studios were finished, and the festival had so expanded its reputation for excellence that it drew nearly 100,000 visitors. In 1959, as the result of a collaboration After the storm of August 12, 1937, which precipitated a fundraising drive between the acoustical consultant Bolt for the construction of the Tanglewood Shed (BSO Archives) Beranek and Newman and architect Eero Saarinen and Associates, the installation of the then-unique Edmund Hawes Talbot Orchestra Canopy, along with other improvements, produced the Shed’s present world-famous acoustics. Since 1966, the Boston University Tanglewood Institute has sponsored programs offering individual and ensemble instruction to talented younger students, mostly of high school age. In 1988, the Shed was rededicated on the occasion of its 50th anniversary as “The Serge Koussevitzky Music Shed,” recognizing the far-reaching vision of the BSO’s legendary music director. With the BSO’s acquisition in 1986 of the High- wood estate adjacent to Tanglewood, the stage was set for the expansion of Tanglewood’s public grounds by some 40%. A master plan developed by the Cambridge firm of Carr, Lynch, Hack and Sandell to unite the Tangle- wood and Highwood properties confirmed the feasibility of using the newly acquired property as the site for a new concert hall to replace the outmoded Theatre-Concert Hall (which, with some modifications, has remained in use since 1941), and for improved Tanglewood Music Center facilities. Designed by the architectural firm William Rawn Associates of Boston, in collaboration with acoustician R. Lawrence Kirkegaard & Associates of Downer’s Grove, Illinois, Seiji Ozawa Hall was inaugurated on July 7, 1994, providing a modern venue for Tanglewood Music Center concerts, and for the varied recital and chamber music concerts The tent at Holmwood, where the BSO played offered by the BSO and its guests. Ozawa Hall its first Berkshire Symphonic Festival concerts in 1936 (BSO Archives) with its attendant buildings also became the focal point of the Tanglewood Music Center’s Leonard Bernstein Campus. This year, the opening of the Linde Center for Music and Learning provides additional rehearsal and performance space for the Tanglewood Music Center, while also housing the new Tanglewood Learning Institute. Today, Tanglewood annually draws more than 350,000 visitors . Besides the concerts of the Boston Symphony Orchestra, the schedule includes chamber music and recital programs featuring prestigious guest artists; Prelude Concerts; Saturday-morning Rehearsals; the annual Festival of Contemporary Music; concerts by the young musicians of the Tanglewood Music Center; appearances by the , and concerts by a variety of jazz and non-classical artists. The season offers not only a vast quantity of music, but also a vast range of musical forms and styles, all presented with a continuing regard for artistic excellence that maintains Tanglewood’s status as one of the world’s most significant music festivals.

The Tanglewood Music Center Since its start as the Berkshire Music Center in 1940, the Tanglewood Music Center (TMC) has become one of the world’s most influential centers for advanced musical study. Serge Koussevitzky, the BSO’s music director from 1924 to 1949, founded the Center to create a first- class music academy where, with the resources of a great symphony orchestra at their disposal, young instrumentalists, vocalists, conduc- tors, and composers would sharpen their skills under the tutelage of BSO musicians and other specially invited artists. The Music Center opened formally on July 8, 1940, with speeches and music. “If ever there was a time to speak of music, it is now in the New World,” said Koussevitzky, alluding Then TMC director Gunther Schuller (back to camera) leading to the war then raging in Europe. then BSO music director Seiji Ozawa, with bass drum, and a “So long as art and culture exist group of Music Center percussionists during a rehearsal for there is hope for humanity.” Randall Tanglewood on Parade in 1976 (BSO Archives/photo by Heinz Weissenstein, Whitestone Photo) Thompson’s Alleluia for unaccompa- nied chorus, written specifically for the ceremony, made such an impression that it is still performed at each summer’s opening ceremony. The TMC was Koussevitzky’s pride and joy for the rest of his life. He assembled an extraordinary faculty in composition,

Severe Weather Action Plan

LIGHTNING AND SEVERE WEATHER ARE NOT FULLY PREDICTABLE. Patrons, visitors, and staff are responsible for observing weather conditions, heeding storm warnings, and taking refuge. Storm shelters are identified on campus maps posted at main gates, in the Tanglewood program book, and on building signage. Please take note of the designated storm shelter nearest you and await notification of safe conditions. Please note that tent structures are not lightning-protected shelters in severe storm conditions. Readmission passes will be provided if you choose to take refuge in your vehicle during the storm.

PLEASE NOTE THAT A PERFORMANCE MAY BE DELAYED OR SUSPENDED during storm conditions and will be resumed when it is safe to do so. operatic and choral activities, and instrumental performance; he himself taught the most gifted conductors. Koussevitzky continued to develop the Tanglewood Music Center until 1950, a year after his retirement as BSO music director. Charles Munch, his successor, ran the TMC from 1951 through 1962, working with Leonard Bernstein and Aaron Copland to shape the school’s programs. In 1963, new BSO music director Erich Leinsdorf took over the reins while also restoring a renewed emphasis on contemporary music. In 1970, three years before his appointment as BSO music director, Seiji Ozawa became head of the BSO’s programs at Tanglewood, with Gunther Schuller leading the TMC and Leonard Bern- stein as general advisor. Leon Fleisher was the TMC’s artistic director from 1985 to 1997. In 1994, with the opening of Seiji Ozawa Hall, the TMC centralized its activities on the Leonard Bernstein Campus. Ellen Highstein became Director of the Tanglewood Music Center in 1997. The 150 young performers and composers in the TMC’s Fellowship Program— advanced musicians who generally have completed all or most of their formal training— participate in an intensive program encompassing chamber and orchestral music, , and art song, with a strong emphasis on music of the 20th and 21st centuries. All participants receive full fellowships that underwrite tuition, room, and board. According to recent estimates, 20% of the members of American symphony orchestras, and 30% of all first-chair players, studied at the TMC. Prominent alumni include Claudio Abbado, Leonard Bernstein, Stephanie Blythe, Phyllis Curtin, Christoph von Dohnányi, Michael Gandolfi, Osvaldo Golijov, John Harbison, Gilbert Kalish, Oliver Knussen, Lorin Maazel, Wynton Marsalis, Zubin Mehta, Seiji Ozawa, Leontyne Price, Ned Rorem, Sanford Sylvan, Michael Tilson Thomas, Dawn Upshaw, Shirley Verrett, and David Zinman. Tanglewood Music Center alumni play a vital role in the musical life of the nation, and the TMC remains one of the world’s most important training grounds for the composers, conductors, instrumentalists, and vocalists of tomorrow.

Tanglewood Learning Institute Representing one of the most significant milestones here since the founding of Tanglewood in 1937 and the inception of the Tanglewood Music Center in 1940, the newly inaugurated Tanglewood Learning Institute (TLI) offers participants—whether newcomers or longtime Tanglewood patrons—an unprecedented and expansive array of engaging cross-cultural programs reflecting the shift toward participatory activities that complement the concert experience. TLI’s offerings link Tanglewood performances to relevant themes from the worlds of visual arts, film, history, philosophy, and current events by exploring thought-provoking approaches designed to view the world through the lens of music, while also breaking down the traditional barrier between artist and listener. Notable TLI presenters this year include former Secretary of State Madeleine K. Albright; Pulitzer Prize-winning author and historian Doris Kearns Goodwin; cellist Yo-Yo Ma; soprano Renée Fleming; BSO Music Director Andris Nelsons; composer John Williams, and playwright Tom Stoppard, as well as other important artists and cultural figures of our time. Among the new TLI initiatives are Saturday-morning Focal Point programs for amateur visual artists; a Sunday-evening Cinematics film series related to Tanglewood programming; TLI Immersion Weekends that delve deeply into major musical themes of the summer; TLI OpenStudios, offering master classes led by leading performers; Meet the Makers, presenting a wide spectrum of creators sharing the inspiration behind their craft, and The Big Idea, featuring major societal thinkers of our time. The home of the Tanglewood Learning Institute is the Linde Center for Music and Learning, a new, four-building, multi-use complex that also provides concert and rehearsal space for the Tanglewood Music Center and establishes Tanglewood, for the first time in its 82-year history, as a year-round facility. Designed by William Rawn Associates Architects, the Linde Center represents the largest building project at Tangle- wood since the completion and inauguration in 1994, a quarter-century ago, of Seiji Ozawa Hall, also designed by William Rawn Associ- ates. The Linde Center for Music and Learning boasts three technically advanced studios designed to maximize its flexibility for per- formance, rehearsal, and educational offerings of the Tanglewood Learning Institute. In addition, Cindy’s Café offers an informal place for musicians and audience members to interact—a hub for visitors, TMC Fellows and faculty, BSO players, and TLI participants. The buildings gather around a 100-year-old red oak, with a serpentine covered walkway connecting each building and framing views and paths through the landscape. Also as a part of this major investment in Tanglewood, Studio E in the new Linde Center for Music and Learning (Robert Benson) the BSO has revitalized Tanglewood’s bucolic 524-acre campus with new plantings, improve- ments to pedestrian circulation, and the restoration of views of the Stockbridge Bowl. The opening of the Linde Center for Music and Learning, along with the establish- ment of the Tanglewood Learning Institute, marks a transformational milestone in the history of Tanglewood.

This Summer’s Special Archival Exhibit at the Tanglewood Visitor Center

A Blueprint for Excellence The Evolution of the Tanglewood Campus

To provide historical context relevant to the inaugu- ration this summer of the new Linde Center for Music and Learning, this summer’s special focus exhibit at the Tanglewood Visitor Center draws upon the BSO Archives’ extensive collection of photographs, architectural plans, and other memo- rabilia documenting the evolution of the Tangle- wood grounds from 1937 to the present. Besides documenting the origins and early owner- The lowering by crane of a steel arch to ship of the Tanglewood form the roof of Seiji Ozawa Hall, 1993 (Walter H. Scott) and adjacent Highwood Photo, c.1950, of the Theatre-Concert Hall, estates, the exhibit explores which was completed in 1941 (Egone) the early development of the Tanglewood grounds, and the construction from the late 1930s through the 1940s of the Shed, Theatre-Concert Hall, Chamber Music Hall, and Main Gate area, all designed originally by Finnish architect Eliel Saarinen and his son Eero Saarinen. Also included in the exhibit are materials pertinent to the integration of the Tangle- wood and Highwood estates following the BSO’s purchase of Highwood in 1986, which allowed not only for the merging of the two properties, but for the construction of Seiji Ozawa Hall, designed by William Rawn Associates, and the creation of the Tanglewood Music Center’s Leonard Bernstein Campus—ultimately setting the stage for this summer’s inauguration of both the new Linde Center for Music and Learning, also designed by William Rawn Associates, and the Tanglewood Learning Institute.

Andris Nelsons

The 2018-19 season is Andris Nelsons’ fifth as the Boston Symphony Orchestra’s Ray and Maria Stata Music Director. Named Musical America’s 2018 Artist of the Year, Mr. Nelsons led the BSO in fourteen wide-ranging subscription programs in 2018-19 at Symphony Hall in Boston, repeating two of them at New York’s Carnegie Hall. In summer 2015, following his first season as music director, Andris Nelsons’ contract with the BSO was extended through the 2021-22 season. He and the BSO have made three European tours together, in 2015, 2016, and 2018. In November 2017, he and the orchestra toured Japan together for the first time. In February 2018, Maestro Nelsons became Gewandhau- skapellmeister of the Gewandhausorchester Leipzig, in which capacity he brings the BSO and Orchestra together for a unique multi-dimensional alliance. The fifteenth music director in the history of the Boston Symphony Orchestra, Andris Nelsons made his BSO debut at Carnegie Hall in March 2011, his Tanglewood debut in July 2012, and his BSO subscription series debut in January 2013. His recordings with the BSO, all made live in concert at Symphony Hall, include the complete Brahms symphonies on BSO Classics; Grammy-winning recordings on Deutsche Grammophon (photo by Marco Borggreve) of Shostakovich’s symphonies 4, 5, 8, 9, 10, and 11 (The Year 1905) as part of a complete Shostakovich symphony cycle for that label; and a recent two-disc set pairing Shostakovich’s symphonies 6 and 7 (Leningrad). Under an exclusive contract with Deutsche Grammophon, Andris Nelsons is also recording the complete Bruckner symphonies with the Gewandhausorchester Leipzig and the complete Beethoven symphonies with the Vienna Philharmonic. The 2018-19 season marks Maestro Nelsons’ final season as artist-in-residence at the Konzerthaus Dortmund and first season as artist-in-residence at ’s Elbphilharmonie. In addition, he contin- ues his regular collaborations with the Vienna Philharmonic and Berlin Phil- harmonic. Throughout his career, he has also established regular collaborations with Amsterdam’s Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra, the Bavarian Radio Symphony Orchestra, and the Philharmonia Orches- tra, and has been a regular guest at the Bayreuth Festival and the Royal Opera House, Covent Garden. Born in Riga in 1978 into a family of musicians, Andris Nelsons began his career as a trumpeter in the Latvian

He was music director of the City of Birmingham Symphony Orchestra from 2008 to 2015, principal conduc- tor of the Nordwestdeutsche Philharmonie in Herford, , from 2006 to 2009, and music director of Latvian National Opera from 2003 to 2007. A Brief History of the Boston Symphony Orchestra

Now in its 138th season, the Boston Symphony Orchestra gave its inaugural concert in 1881, realizing the dream of its founder, the Civil War veteran/businessman/philan- thropist Henry Lee Higginson, who envisioned a great and permanent orchestra in his hometown of Boston. Today the BSO reaches millions of listeners, not only through its concert performances in Boston and at Tanglewood, but also via the internet, radio, television, educational programs, recordings, and tours. It commissions works from today’s most important composers; its summer season at Tanglewood is among the world’s most esteemed music festivals; it helps develop future audiences through BSO Youth Concerts and educational outreach programs involving the entire Boston community; and, during the Tanglewood season, it operates the Tanglewood Music Center, one of the world’s most important training grounds for young professional-caliber musicians. The Boston Symphony Chamber Players, made up of BSO principals, are known worldwide, and the Boston Pops Orchestra sets an international stan- dard for performances of lighter music. Launched in 1996, the BSO’s website, bso.org, is the largest and most- visited orchestral website in the United States, receiving approximately Major Henry Lee Higginson, 7 million visitors annually on its full site as well as its smart phone-/ founder of the Boston mobile device-friendly web format. The BSO is also on Facebook and Symphony Orchestra Twitter, and video content from the BSO is available on YouTube. An (BSO Archives) expansion of the BSO’s educational activities has also played a key role in strengthening the orchestra’s commitment to, and presence within, its surround- ing communities. Through its Education and Community Engagement programs, the BSO provides individuals of all backgrounds the opportunity to develop and build relationships with the BSO and orchestral music. In addition, the BSO offers a variety of free educational programs at Symphony Hall and Tanglewood, as well as special initiatives aimed at attracting young audience members. The Boston Symphony Orchestra gave its inaugural concert on October 22, 1881, under Georg Henschel, who remained as conductor until 1884. For nearly twenty years, BSO concerts were held in the old Boston Music Hall; Symphony Hall, one of the world’s most revered concert halls, opened on October 15, 1900. Henschel was succeeded by the German-born and -trained conductors Wilhelm Gericke, Arthur Nikisch, Emil Paur, and Max Fiedler, culminating in the appointment of the legendary

The first photograph, actually an 1882 collage, of the Boston Symphony Orchestra under Georg Henschel (BSO Archives) Karl Muck, who served two tenures, 1906-08 and 1912-18. In 1915 the orchestra made its first transcontinental trip, playing thirteen concerts at the Panama-Pacific Inter- national Exposition in San Francisco. Henri Rabaud, engaged as conductor in 1918, was succeeded a year later by Pierre Monteux. These appointments marked the begin- ning of a French tradition maintained, even during the Russian-born Serge Koussevitzky’s tenure (1924-49), with the employment of many French-trained musicians. It was in 1936 that Koussevitzky led the orchestra’s first concerts in the Berkshires; he and the players took up annual summer residence at Tanglewood a year later. Kousse- vitzky passionately shared Major Higginson’s dream of “a good honest school for musi- cians,” and in 1940 that dream was realized with the founding of the Berkshire Music Center (now called the Tangle- wood Music Center). Koussevitzky was succeeded in 1949 by Charles Munch, who continued supporting con- temporary composers, intro- duced much French music to the repertoire, and led the BSO on its first internation- al tours. In 1956, the BSO, under the direction of Charles Munch, was the first American orchestra to tour the Soviet Union. Erich Leinsdorf began his term as music director in 1962, to be followed in TMC faculty members Aaron Copland and Leonard Bernstein 1969 by William Steinberg. seated with Serge Koussevitzky during a Berkshire Music Center Seiji Ozawa became the BSO’s class photo shoot in the 1940s (Ruth Orkin/BSO Archives) thirteenth music director in 1973. His historic twenty-nine-year tenure extended until 2002, when he was named Music Director Laureate. In 1979, the BSO, under the direction of Seiji Ozawa, was the first American orchestra to tour mainland China after the normalization of relations. Bernard Haitink, named principal guest conduc- tor in 1995 and Conductor Emeritus in 2004, has led the BSO in Boston, New York, at Tangle wood, and on tour in Europe, as well as recording with the orchestra. Previous principal guest conductors of the orchestra included Michael Tilson Thomas, from 1972 to 1974, and the late Sir Colin Davis, from 1972 to 1984. The first American-born conductor to hold the position, James Levine was the BSO’s music director from 2004 to 2011. Levine led the orchestra in wide-ranging programs that included works newly commissioned for the orchestra’s 125th anniversary, particularly from significant American composers; issued a number of live concert performances on the orchestra’s own label, BSO Classics; taught at the Tangle wood Music Center; and in 2007 led the BSO in an acclaimed tour of European music festivals. In May 2013, a new chapter in the history of the Boston Symphony Orchestra was initiated when the internationally acclaimed young Latvian conductor Andris Nelsons was announced as the BSO’s fifteenth music director, a position he assumed in September 2015, following a year as music director designate. Today, the Boston Symphony Orchestra continues to fulfill and expand upon the vision of its founder Henry Lee Higginson, not only through its concert performances, edu- cational offerings, and internet presence, but also through its expanding use of virtual and electronic media in a manner reflecting the BSO’s continuing awareness of today’s modern, ever-changing, 21st-century world.

2 NOTES ON THE PROGRAM

ANTON BRUCKNER (1824-96), the great symphonist, was also an organist and ardent contrapuntalist. His work as a cathedral organist in , Austria, along with his love of choral music, led him to compose numerous sacred works for accompa- nied and for a cappella choirs, including several masses, psalm settings, and motets. Having taken up the Linz position in 1855, he remained for thirteen years, leaving only in 1868 to take a prominent post as professor of counterpoint at the Vienna Conservatory. He still kept in touch with his former life, however. He wrote the gradual “Locus iste” for a cappella mixed chorus for the dedication of the votive chapel in Linz’s new cathedral in 1869.

HUGO WOLF (1860-1903) grew up in an environment in which his earliest com- positional efforts were performed by friends and extended family. In addition to performances of instrumental music, Wolf was able to hear choral pieces as well, sung at the family home at Windischgraz, Styria (now Slovenj Gradec, in Slovenia). His Romantic inclinations led him to poetry, and he was to become the most prolific and sensitive composer of art songs of his generation. At fifteen he moved to Vienna to attend the city’s conservatory (where he became friendly with another student, Gustav Mahler). He was dismissed from the conservatory in 1877 for disciplinary reasons and after a few months at home returned to Vienna, where he chafed at teaching music to the children of well-to-do Viennese families. His ill-considered relationship with a relative of one of these families, Vally Franck, and its end in spring 1881 may have been an impetus for the subdued but questing Sechs geist- liche Lieder, unaccompanied choral settings of poems by Joseph von Eichendorff (1788-1857). “Resignation,” the third of these, depicts a weary traveler calling for night to arrive and grant him rest and peace. The song is nearly a chorale; the text is set mostly homophonically, with chromatic passing-tones enriching the harmony and texture.

HEINRICH SCHÜTZ (1585-1672) is universally recognized as the greatest of 17th-century German composers. Born in Saxony some fifty miles from Leipzig, he trained in Kassel in Hesse and with the aging Giovanni Gabrieli in Venice, remain- ing there some four years and returning north only after the master’s death in 1612. The Elector Johann Georg I of Saxony brought him to Dresden, where he became Hofkapellmeister in 1621. In the late 1620s Schütz made a further trip to Italy, where he worked with Claudio Monteverdi. Schütz’s assimilation of fresh Italian ideas and genres was a key factor in enlivening German traditions. Temporary posts outside Dresden helped to disseminate his more than 500 pieces, ranging from motets to Passion settings and secular drama. “So fahr ich hin zu Jesu Christ” (“So I go to Jesus Christ”) and “Selig sind die Toten” (“Blessed are the dead”) both come from the Geistliche Chormusik (published 1648), twenty-nine a cappella motets for five to seven voice parts. Both settings are highly contrapuntal and relatively sedate. So fahr ich hin (SSATB; from a poem by Nikolaus Hermann) takes on the calm restfulness of its text, e.g., “I sleep, and rest easy”; it animates somewhat with the second half, “No man can wake me.” Note the wonderful sonic detail of the rhythm of the “s” sounds in Selig sind die Toten (SSATTB, from Revelation), especially in the repeat of the first phrase of text. Madrigal-like text-setting includes the majesty of “Ja, der Geist spricht” (“Yes, the spirit says”) and the busy imitative texture of “their works.” The celebratory, double- chorus “Jauchzet dem Herrn” (“Make a joyful noise unto the Lord,” based on Psalm 100) is an early work, published in Dresden in 1619 as part of a collection of “Psalms

TANGLEWOOD WEEK 8 PRELUDE PROGRAM 3 4 of David.” The swing between dance-like triple-meter music and duple meter under- lines the intent of the text.

When he wrote the three a cappella double-chorus psalm settings of his Opus 78, FELIX MENDELSSOHN (1809-1847) was the recently appointed Kapellmeister in Berlin, a position given to him by Friedrich Wilhelm IV, King of Prussia. The com- poser had been a beloved central figure in the musical life of nearby Leipzig since 1835, and the king hoped for a similar revitalization of Berlin’s arts life. After some years of overlapping duties, he moved permanently to Berlin in late 1943, where he immersed himself in preparing new music for the Berlin Cathedral. He wrote the a cappella, double-chorus psalm settings Opus 78, nos. 2 and 3 for Easter season 1844. No. 2, “Richte mich, Gott” (“Vindicate me, God”), sets Psalm 43, which implores God to defend the singer against his enemies. The setting opposes the severe music of the first verses with the open, broad passages setting “Send me your light” and “Put your hope in God.”

Although motets were still being composed in 1720s Germany, the form was considered somewhat archaic even though 16th-century motets were still regularly performed to open Lutheran services. J.S. BACH (1685-1750), a master of virtually all genres past and contemporary, wrote independent motets as well as motet movements for many of his cantatas. The motet “Komm, Jesu, komm” sets two verses of a poem by Paul Thymich (1656-94), who had taught at the Leipzig Thomasschule in the gen- eration before Bach. The poem, written in 1684 as a funeral aria for St. Thomas’s rector, is a first-person prayer of resignation at the end of life and the anticipation of spiritual deliverance to Jesus Christ. It references the biblical verse John 14:6—“I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.” The two choral groups deliver the text antiphonally, as though in dialog, phrase by phrase or even occasionally word by word, as in “Komm, komm” at the start. The setting is otherwise flowing, with an uptick of energy at the third line, “My strength declines” within the first verse. The second block of text, “Come, come, I yield myself to thee” is brighter, moving from the 3/2 of the first verse to 4/4 time for the first two lines. The extended setting of the second two lines is in 6/8 and features highly melismatic (that is, strings of pitches sung to one syllable of text), flowing, almost instrumental textures. The final verse, “Therefore I put myself into Thy hands,” is dispatched quickly in a chorale setting.

ARNOLD SCHOENBERG’s unaccompanied choral work “Friede auf Erden” (“Peace on Earth”) dates from 1907, the end of the composer’s first, “late-Romantic” period; sketches from 1906 are concurrent with those for his Second String Quartet. Although this comparatively early choral piece is tonal, the choruses to which Schoenberg then had access still found the work too challenging to perform. He ultimately wrote an instrumental accompaniment for the piece to make it more

TANGLEWOOD WEEK 8 PRELUDE PROGRAM NOTES 5 practical, but this was met with little success when it was first performed in Vienna in 1911. Only later, under the direction of his pupil Anton Webern in the late 1920s, did it begin to receive suitable performances. In the meantime, Schoenberg had essentially given up writing for a cappella chorus. With its clear counterpoint and flowing lines, this setting’s arching, dramatic struc- ture has less in common with the music of his older contemporary Richard Strauss than with Johannes Brahms, two generations older. The smooth part-writing follows rules dating back to the Renaissance, though the chromatically tonal harmonic language is current with Schoenberg’s own time. The text is an 1886 Christmastime poem by the Swiss poet Conrad Ferdinand Meyer, and represents a pastoral, willfully naïve prediction for a better future.

Tanglewood Festival Chorus James Burton, BSO Choral Director and Conductor of the Tanglewood Festival Chorus John Oliver (1939-2018), Founder

Originally formed under the joint sponsorship of Boston University and the Boston Symphony Orchestra, the all-volunteer Tanglewood Festival Chorus was established in 1970 by its founding conductor, the late John Oliver, who stepped down from his leadership position with the TFC at the end of the 2015 Tanglewood season. In Feb- ruary 2017, following appearances as guest chorus conductor at Symphony Hall and Tanglewood, and having prepared the chorus for that month’s BSO performances of Bach’s B minor Mass led by Andris Nelsons, James Burton was named the new Conductor of the Tanglewood Festival Chorus, also being appointed to the newly created position of BSO Choral Director. He occupies the Alan J. and Suzanne W. Dworsky Chair on the Boston Symphony Orchestra roster. This summer, in addition to its annual Friday Prelude concert in Ozawa Hall (August 23), the Tanglewood Festival Chorus joins the BSO for performances of Verdi’s Requiem (July 13), Shostakovich’s

6 Symphony No. 2 and Ravel’s complete Daphnis et Chloé (July 26), and, in this summer’s final BSO concert, Schoenberg’s Friede auf Erden and Beethoven’s Symphony No. 9 (August 25). The chorus also participates this summer in the annual “John Williams’ Film Night” (August 24). Though first established for performances at the BSO’s summer home, the Tangle- wood Festival Chorus was soon playing a major role in the BSO’s subscription season as well as BSO concerts at Carnegie Hall; the ensemble now performs year-round with the Boston Symphony and Boston Pops. It has performed with the BSO on tour in Hong Kong and Japan, and on two European tours, also giving a cappella concerts of its own on those two occasions. The TFC made its debut in April 1970 at Symphony Hall, in a BSO performance of Beethoven’s Ninth Symphony with Leonard Bernstein conducting. Its first recording with the orchestra, Berlioz’s La Damnation de Faust with Seiji Ozawa, received a Grammy nomination for Best Choral Performance of 1975. The TFC has since made dozens of recordings with the BSO and Boston Pops, with Seiji Ozawa, Bernard Haitink, James Levine, Leonard Bernstein, Sir Colin Davis, Keith Lockhart, and John Williams. In August 2011, with John Oliver conducting and soloist Stephanie Blythe, the TFC gave the world premiere of Alan Smith’s An Unknown Sphere for mezzo-soprano and chorus, commissioned by the BSO for the ensemble’s 40th anniversary. Its most recent recordings on BSO Classics, all drawn from live perform- ances, include a disc of a cappella music marking the TFC’s 40th anniversary; Ravel’s complete Daphnis et Chloé (a 2009 Grammy-winner for Best Orchestral Performance), Brahms’s German Requiem, and William Bolcom’s Eighth Symphony for chorus and orchestra (a BSO 125th Anniversary Commission). On July 4, 2018, the Tanglewood Festival Chorus joined Keith Lockhart for the “Boston Pops Fireworks Spectacular” on the Charles River Esplanade. Besides their work with the BSO, TFC members have also performed with Zubin Mehta and the Israel Philharmonic and in a Saito Kinen Festival production of Britten’s Peter Grimes under Seiji Ozawa in Japan. The ensemble had the honor of singing at Sen. Edward Kennedy’s funeral; has performed with the Boston Pops for the Boston Red Sox and Boston Celtics; and can be heard on the soundtracks of Clint Eastwood’s Mystic River, John Sayles’s Silver City, and Steven Spielberg’s Saving Private Ryan. TFC members regularly commute from the greater Boston area and beyond to sing with the chorus in Boston and at Tanglewood. For more information about the Tanglewood Festival Chorus and upcoming auditions, please visit www.bso.org/tfc.

James Burton James Burton was appointed Conductor of the Tanglewood Festival Chorus, and to the newly created position of BSO Choral Director, in February 2017. He made his BSO subscription-series conducting debut in October 2018, leading the Tangle- wood Festival Chorus in Maija Einfelde’s Lux aeterna. Born in London, Mr. Burton holds a master’s degree in orchestral conducting from the Peabody Conservatory, where he studied with Frederik Prausnitz and Gustav Meier. He began his training at the Choir of Westminster Abbey, where he became head chorister, and was a choral scholar at St. John’s College, Cambridge. He has conducted concerts with the Royal Liverpool Philharmonic, the Orchestra of the Age of Enlightenment, the Hallé, the Orchestra of Scottish Opera, Royal Northern Sinfonia, BBC Concert Orchestra, and Manchester Camerata. He made his debut with the Boston Pops in December 2017, returned to the Pops podium last December, and led the Pops at Tanglewood this past June in a program cele- brating Queen with Marc Martel.

TANGLEWOOD WEEK 8 FRIDAY PROGRAM 11 NOTES ON THE PROGRAM

Felix Mendelssohn (1809-1847) Overture to “A Midsummer Night’s Dream,” Opus 21 First performance of the overture: April 29, 1827, in Stettin, Carl Loewe cond. First BSO performances: February 1883, Georg Henschel cond. First Tanglewood performance: August 10, 1963, Erich Leinsdorf cond. Most recent Tanglewood performance: August 5, 2017, Hans Graf cond., opening a theatrical adaptation by Bill Barclay of “A Mid- summer Night’s Dream” using Mendelssohn’s complete incidental music (the overture by itself having most recently been played by the BSO at Tanglewood on August 21, 2010, Susanna Mälkki cond.). Berlin in the 1820s was a populous, densely packed city with few open spaces, “a city without lungs,” wrote the art historian Karl Scheffler. Abraham Men- delssohn, father of Felix and a wealthy banker, was one of those who could afford to live beyond the city gates, where the open country made life more pleasant. The Mendelssohn home was a mansion, a small palace really, set on ten verdant acres. The residence boasted a hall for theatrical produc- tions, while the garden house was arranged so that its large interior could be used for concerts with an audience of several hundred. There were, in fact, reg- ular Sunday-afternoon musicales in the Mendelssohn household, with Felix and his older sister, Fanny, being regular participants. Also on the grounds was a beau- tiful garden, a magical place for young Felix, where the warm days of summer were spent reading and dreaming. In later years, he told his friend the English composer William Sterndale Bennett about an evening in July 1826, “It was in that garden one night that I encountered Shakespeare.”

12 The seventeen-year-old Felix particularly enjoyed the wondrous fantasy world of A Midsummer Night’s Dream, and plans for a work inspired by the play began to stir in his imagination. Early in July, he wrote in a letter, “I have grown accustomed to com- posing in our garden. Today or tomorrow I am going to dream there [the music to accompany] A Midsummer’s Night’s Dream. This is, however, an enormous audacity...” Within a few days, however, he had embarked on his “audacity” and was writing an overture to the play. By August 6th, the work was done. On November 19th, Felix and Fanny played the original piano duet version of the score on one of their Sunday musicales, and a private orchestral performance followed before the end of the year. In February, the work was first played publicly in Stettin. It immediately garnered a success that has never waned. The Overture to A Midsummer Night’s Dream is the greatest piece of orchestral music ever composed by one so young, including Mozart and Schubert. Woven into its sonata form are thematic representations of the woodland sprites, the shimmering light through forest leaves, the sweet sighs of the lovers, even the “ee-ah” braying of that memorable rustic, Bottom, when he is turned into an ass. In matters of formal construction, orchestral color, and artistic polish, this overture is, quite simply, a masterpiece.

Maurice Ravel (1875-1937) Piano Concerto in G

First performance: January 14, 1932, Paris, Ravel cond., Marguerite Long, soloist. First BSO performance: April 22, 1932, Serge Koussevitzky cond., Jesús María Sanromá, soloist. First Tanglewood performance: August 6, 1950, Leonard Bernstein, cond. and soloist. Most recent Tanglewood performance: July 17, 2016, Gustavo Gimeno cond., Yuja Wang, soloist. At about the same time that Paul Wittgenstein, a concert pianist who had lost his right arm during World War I, asked Ravel if he would write a concerto for him, Ravel’s longtime interpreter Marguerite Long asked for a concerto for herself. Thus, although he had written no piano music for a dozen years, he found himself in 1930 writing two concertos more or less simultaneously. The concerto for the left hand turned out to be one of his most serious compositions, but the G major concerto, dedicated to and first performed by Madame Long, falls into the delightful category of high-quality diversion. Ravel’s favorite term of praise was divertissement de luxe, and he succeeded in producing just such a piece with this concerto. The motoric high jinks of the first movement are set off by the cracking of a whip, though they occasionally yield to lyric contemplation. The second movement is a total contrast, hushed and calm, with a tune widely regarded as one of the loveliest melodies Ravel ever wrote. The effort cost him dearly, and it may have been here that he first realized that his powers of composition were failing; they broke down completely in 1932, when the shock of an automobile collision brought on a ner- vous breakdown, and he found himself thereafter incapable of sustained work. For this concerto, he found it necessary to write the Adagio assai one or two measures at a time. The final Presto brings back the rushing motor rhythms of the opening, and both movements now and then bear witness that Ravel had traveled in America and

TANGLEWOOD WEEK 8 FRIDAY PROGRAM NOTES 13 had become acquainted with jazz and recent popular music. He also met George Gershwin and told him that he thought highly of his Rhapsody in Blue; perhaps it is a reminiscence of that score that can be heard in some of the “blue” passages here and there.

STEVEN LEDBETTER Steven Ledbetter was program annotator of the Boston Symphony Orchestra from 1979 to 1998.

Franz Schubert (1797-1828) Symphony No. 2 in B-flat, D.125 First public performance: October 20, 1877, Crystal Palace, London, August Manns cond. First BSO performance: December 20, 1944, Dimitri Mitropoulos cond. First Tanglewood performance: August 11, 1949, Leonard Bernstein cond. Most recent Tangle- wood performance by the BSO: July 21, 1985, Charles Dutoit cond. Schubert began his Symphony No. 2 on December 10, 1814, and finished it on March 14, 1815. It may have been given a reading, soon after that, by the orchestra of the Vienna seminary where Schubert had been a student and to whose director he dedicated the manuscript score. It was likely performed privately, too, by an amateur orchestra that had grown out of the Schubert family string quartet; but the first public performance came only in October 1877, under the direction of August Manns, conducting from manuscript, in Lon- don, on which occasion a newspaper reported that it was being “produced probably for the very first time since its birth.” Of the fourteen children born to Schubert’s parents, four besides himself survived: three elder brothers, Ignaz, Ferdinand, and Karl, and a younger sister, Maria Theresa, born when Franz was four. Schubert’s early musical training came at home. Ignaz gave him his first piano lessons, and his father taught him violin. In the family string quartet, Ignaz and Ferdinand played violin, his father cello, and Franz viola. Like his brothers, Schubert was sent to Michael Holzer, organ- ist of the Liechtental parish church, for lessons in voice, organ, and counterpoint. Holzer recognized the boy’s abilities and later recalled that “if I wished to instruct

14 him in anything fresh, he already knew it. Consequently I gave him no actual train- ing but merely talked to him, and watched with silent astonishment.” At eleven, Schubert was accepted as a chorister in the Imperial court chapel and took up residence at the Stadtkonvikt, a communal boarding home which also housed the Choir School. There he sang and studied under the direction of Hofkapellmeister , who, while giving the boy a firm grounding in compositional practice, also did his best to discourage Franz’s leanings toward German poetry and to expunge the language of Haydn and Mozart from the boy’s musical vocabulary. There, too, he played in the school orchestra as first violinist and was occasionally trusted to lead rehearsals; the repertory regularly included symphonies of Haydn and Mozart, Beethoven’s first two symphonies, and overtures, as well as music of other composers. It was this orchestra that first played Schubert’s D major symphony, his First, which he completed in October 1813. Schubert’s voice changed when he was fifteen, ending his time as a chorister, and he left the Stadtkonvikt shortly afterwards. He spent a year training as a teacher, in accordance with his father’s wishes, and then assisted at his father’s school. The hours spent in front of the classroom were not happy, and Schubert was apparently a strict disciplinarian—especially when distracted from the musical ideas running through his head. In 1818 he gave up teaching altogether, breaking completely with convention and choosing the bohemian life we know from the anecdotes, but by this time he had managed to compose hundreds of songs (including Gretchen am Spinnrade and Erlkönig, written when he was seventeen and eighteen, respectively), works for stage, church, and chamber ensemble, and five symphonies. Though it was only toward the end of his life that he would begin to develop a reputation outside his own circle and only well after his death that his real importance would be recog- nized, his course was set. Though the practice of comparing one composer’s music to another can be both dangerous and misleading, one does hear something of Mozart, Haydn, and Beethoven in Schubert’s Second: Mozart in the first movement’s lyric second theme and in the minor-mode third movement; Haydn in the variation scheme of the slow movement; and Beethoven in the fist-shaking gesture that is the first loud music to be heard in the finale. And there is certainly something about the sound of the orchestra in Schubert’s early symphonies that can suggest Haydn or Mozart, even if only because the size of the instrumental group is right. But this is momentary. Schubert’s own voice is immediately recognizable: the shape of the string phrases and the airiness of the wind writing in the opening measures of the piece are enough to convince. The first-movement Allegro is wonderfully buoyant and energetic; its characteristic Schubertian length grows naturally from the composer’s fashioning of thematic material. Even the lyric contrast midway through the exposition is provided with a backdrop of constant motion. The ease of the movement’s progress is also tied to Schubert’s use, again characteristic, of subdominant harmonies; there is a sense of relaxation and comfort even in passages of whirlwind activity. The second movement presents a deceptively simple E-flat major theme and five variations; the fourth of these, in C minor, prepares the way for the gruff third-movement minuet in that key. Schubert begins the finale seemingly in mid-thought. This movement, like the first, is all energy and motion, with lots of bounce thrown in for good measure.

TANGLEWOOD WEEK 8 SATURDAY PROGRAM 19 John Williams’ Film Night at Tanglewood The George and Roberta Berry Concert Saturday, August 24, 2019 The Boston Pops performance on Saturday evening is supported by a generous gift from Roberta Berry, wife of the late George Berry, and her family. George was elected to the BSO Board of Overseers in 1998 and became an Overseer Emeritus in 2010. As BSO Great Benefactors, George and Roberta have contributed their time and resources to many parts of the BSO. They have generously supported the Annual Funds and Opening Nights at Symphony, Tanglewood, and the Pops, and are members of the Walter Piston Society. In addition to their annual support, George and Roberta have contributed to the endowment in support of the Artistic Initiative, the Tanglewood Music Center Opera Program, and the Tanglewood Forever Fund Initiative. They established the George and Roberta Berry Fund for Tanglewood and the George and Roberta Berry Fellowship at the Tanglewood Music Center, and they named the Boston Pops Conductor Laureate Chair held by John Williams and the Boston Pops Films in Concert Series for the 2016-17 and 2017-18 seasons. Along with Roberta, George was among the most devoted supporters of the Boston Pops. Growing up in Ohio, George’s first exposure to orchestral music was through listening to recordings of Arthur Fiedler conducting the Pops. George attended Pops performances for more than forty years, and after he wooed her with a tour of Tanglewood, Roberta was by his side for nearly thirty of them. The Berrys brought their children, Matthew and Jonathan, to Pops concerts when Star Wars, E.T., and Raiders of the Lost Ark were blockbuster hits, and they continue to support the Pops’ tradition of performing movie music by naming a Film Night concert with John Williams each summer at Tanglewood. George and Roberta chaired Opening Night at Pops in 2002, and they served on many committees for Opening Night at Pops, Symphony, and Tanglewood, as well as the Tanglewood Wine Auction. In addition, the couple traveled with the orchestra on the 2007 European Festivals Tour and the 2014 Asia Tour.

John Williams In a career spanning six decades, John Williams has become one of America’s most accomplished and successful composers for film and for the concert stage; he remains one of our nation’s most distinguished and contributive musical voices. In January 1980, Mr. Williams was named nineteenth conductor of the Boston Pops Orchestra, succeeding the legendary Arthur Fiedler. He currently holds the title of George and Roberta Berry Boston Pops Conductor Laureate, which he assumed following his retirement in December 1993, after fourteen highly successful seasons. He also holds the title of Artist-in-Residence at Tanglewood and maintains thriving artistic relationships with many of the world’s great or- chestras. His forty-year artistic partnership with director Steven Spielberg has resulted in such acclaimed and successful films as Schindler’s List, E.T. The Ex- tra-Terrestrial, Jaws, Jurassic Park, Close Encounters of the Third Kind, the Indiana Jones films, Lincoln, Saving Private Ryan, and The Post. Mr. Williams also composed the scores for all of the Star Wars films, the first three Harry Potter films, and Superman, among many others. With five Academy Awards and 51 Oscar nominations, he is the Acad- emy’s most-nominated living person. For television, he wrote scores for many early anthology series and the themes for NBC Nightly News (“The Mission”), NBC’s Meet the Press, and PBS’s Great Performances. His works for the concert stage include two symphonies, and concertos for violin, viola, cello, flute, , clarinet, , horn, , tuba, and harp. Mr. Williams has composed music for many important cultural and commemorative events, including Liberty Fanfare for the rededication of the Statue of Liberty, American Journey for the “America’s Millennium” concert in Washington, D.C., and themes for the 1984, 1988, and 1996 Summer Olympic Games, and the 2002 Winter Olympic Games. John Williams is a recipient of the National Medal of Arts, the highest award given to artists by the United States government; the Olympic Order, the IOC’s highest honor; and the Kennedy Center Honor. He composed and arranged Air and Simple Gifts especially for the January 2009 inaugural ceremony of President Barack Obama. In June 2016 he received the 44th Life Achievement Award from the American Film Institute.

David Newman David Newman is one of today’s most accomplished creators of music for film. In his thirty-year career he has scored more than 110 films, ranging from War of the Roses, Matilda, Bowfinger, and Heathers to the more recent Five Flights Up and Serenity. His music has brought to life the critically acclaimed dramas Brokedown Palace and Hoffa; the top-grossing comedies Galaxy Quest and Throw Momma from the Train; and the award-winning animated films Ice Age, The Brave Little Toaster, and Anastasia. Mr. Newman earned an Academy Award nomination for his score to Anastasia and was the first composer to have a piece—1001 Nights — performed in the Los Angeles Philharmonic’s “Filmharmonic” series, conducted by Esa-Pekka Salonen. A highly sought-after conductor, Mr. Newman appears with leading orchestras throughout the world, including the New York Phil- harmonic, Los Angeles Philharmonic, Royal Philharmonic Orchestra, the Deutsches Symphonie-Orchester Berlin, the Schleswig-Holstein Festival Orchestra, San Diego Symphony, Boston Symphony Orchestra, Philadelphia Orchestra, and Cleveland Orchestra. In fall 2017, he conducted the world premiere of the screenings of the epic film series Star Wars (Episodes IV, V, VI, and VII) with the New York Philharmonic

TANGLEWOOD WEEK 8 ARTISTS 21 performing John Williams’s iconic scores.

TANGLEWOOD WEEK 8 SUNDAY PROGRAM 27 NOTES ON THE PROGRAM

Arnold Schoenberg “Friede auf Erden,” Opus 13 Arnold Schoenberg, who for many epitomizes the avant-garde iconoclast in music history, revered Brahms and thought of his own work as a continuation of the long Germanic musical tradition—even when he moved into free atonality and devel- oped the seismically influential twelve-tone compositional technique around 1920. Schoenberg’s earliest mature scores included the colorful, lush, and intensely expressive late-Romantic string sextet/string orchestra piece Verklärte Nacht (“Transfigured Night”) and an orchestral tone poem based on Maeterlinck’s dreamy Pelléas et Mélisande, as well as much of the work on his vast orchestral cantata Gurrelieder (only completed in 1911). The chromatically saturated Chamber Symphony, Opus 9, and the Second String Quartet, Opus 10, the last movement of which is one of the composer’s first forays into atonality, date from 1907 and 1908, respectively, and indicate Schoenberg’s aesthetic alignment with what would become known as German Expressionism. His great atonal works Pierrot Lunaire, the Five Pieces for Orchestra, Opus 16, and the monodrama Erwartung followed in the next few years, and his first definitively twelve-tone work appeared in 1923 (the Suite for Piano, Opus 25). Although Schoenberg’s most important works thereafter were all written using the twelve-tone technique, he continued occasionally to write and arrange tonal works as well. Schoenberg’s unaccompanied choral work Friede auf Erden (“Peace on Earth”) dates from 1907, the end of the composer’s first, “late-Romantic” period; sketches from 1906 are concurrent with those for his Second String Quartet. Although this comparatively early choral piece is tonal, the choruses to which Schoenberg then had access still found the work too challenging to perform. He ultimately wrote an instrumental accompaniment for the piece to make it more practical, but this was met with little success when it was first performed on December 9, 1911, in Vienna, with Franz Schreker conducting. Only later, under the direction of his pupil Anton Webern in the late 1920s, did it begin to receive suitable performances. In the meantime, Schoenberg had essentially given up writing for a cappella chorus. With its clear counterpoint and flowing lines, Schoenberg’s arching, dramatic struc- ture in this setting has less in common with the music of his older contemporary Richard Strauss than with Johannes Brahms, two generations older. Schoenberg’s smooth part-writing follows rules dating back to the Renaissance, though his chro- matically tonal harmonic language is current with his own time. The text is an 1886 Christmastime poem by the Swiss poet Conrad Ferdinand Meyer and represents a pastoral, willfully naive prediction for a better future.

28 “Friede auf Erden” Poem by Conrad Ferdinand Meyer Translation by Martin Thurn-Mithoff

Da die Hirten ihre Herde When the shepherds left their flock Ließen und des Engels Worte To bring the Angel’s words Trugen durch die niedre Pforte Through the narrow doorstep Zu der Mutter und dem Kind, To the Mother and the Child Fuhr das himmlische Gesind All the angels up in heaven Fort im Sternenraum zu singen Went on singing through the universe, Fuhr der Himmel fort zu klingen: And all heavens sounded: “Friede, Friede auf der Erde!” “Peace, peace on Earth!”

Seit die Engel so geraten, Since these words of angels, O wie viele blut’ge Taten Oh, how many bloody deeds Hat der Streit auf wildem Pferde, On wild horses has the fierce Der geharnischte vollbracht! and cruel fight committed! In wie mancher heil’gen Nacht In how many holy nights Sang der Chor der Geister zagend, Did the angel’s choir sing, Dringlich flehend, leis verklagend: Despairing, imploring and quietly accusing: “Friede, Friede auf der Erde!” “Peace, peace on Earth!”

Doch es ist ein ewger Glaube, Yet, there is faith, eternally, Daß der Schwache nicht zum Raube That not each weak and feeble creature Jeder frechen Mordgebärde To impudent, shameless murder Werde fallen allezeit: Will fall prey: Etwas wie Gerechtigkeit Something like justice Webt und wirkt in Mord und Grauen, Lives and works in murder and atrocity, Und ein Reich will sich erbauen, To erect a kingdom Das den Frieden sucht der Erde. That strives for peace on earth.

Mählich wird es sich gestalten, Gradually will it take its shape, Seines heil’gen Amtes walten, Administering holy justice, Waffen schmieden ohne Fährde, Forging weapons without danger, Flammenschwerter für das Recht, Flaming swords to defend the right, Und ein königlich Geschlecht And a truly royal kind Wird erblühn mit starken Söhnen, Will blossom up, of strongest sons, Dessen helle Tuben dröhnen: And the trumpets will proclaim: “Friede, Friede auf der Erde!” “Peace, peace on Earth!”

Beethoven’s Ninth Symphony in D minor is one of the most beloved and influential of symphonic works, and one of the most enigmatic. Partly it thrives in legends: the unprece dented introduction of voices into a symphony, singing Schiller’s “Ode to Joy”; the Vienna premiere in 1824, when the deaf composer could not hear the frenzied ovations behind him; the mystical begin- ning, like matter coalescing out of the void, that would be echoed time and again by later composers—Brahms, Bruckner, Mahler. Above all there is the choral theme of the last movement, one of the most familiar tunes in the world. On the face of it, that in his last years Beethoven would compose a paean to joy is almost unimaginable. As early as 1802, when he faced the certainty that he was going deaf, he cried in the “Heiligenstadt Testament”: “For so long now the heartfelt echo of true joy has been a stranger to me!” Through the next twenty years before he took up the Ninth, he lived with painful and humiliating illness. The long struggle to become legal guardian of his nephew, and the horrendous muddle of their rela- tionship, brought him to the edge of madness. The idea of setting Schiller’s Ode to music was actually not a conception of Beetho- ven’s melancholy last decade. The poem, written in 1785 and embodying the revolu- tionary fervor of that era, is a kind of exalted drinking song, to be declaimed among comrades with glasses literally or figuratively raised. Schiller’s utopian verses were the young Beethoven’s music of revolt; it appears that in his early twenties he had already set them to music. In old age we often return to our youth and its dreams. In 1822, when Vienna had become a police state with spies every where, Beethoven received a commission for a symphony from the Philharmonic Society of London. He had already been sketch- ing ideas; now he decided to make Schiller’s fire-drunk hymn to friendship, marriage, freedom, and universal brotherhood the finale of the symphony. Into the first three movements he carefully wove foreshadowings of the “Joy” theme, so in the finale it would be unveiled like a revelation. The dramatic progress of the Ninth is usually described as “darkness to light.” Scholar Maynard Solomon refines that idea into “an extended metaphor of a quest for Elysium.” But it’s a strange darkness and a surprising journey. The first movement begins with whispering string tremolos, as if coalescing out of silence. Soon the music bursts into figures monumental and declamatory, and at the same time gnarled and searching. The gestures are decisive, even heroic, but the harmony is a restless flux that rarely settles into a proper D minor, or anything else. What kind of hero is rootless and uncertain? The recapitulation (the place where

TANGLEWOOD WEEK 8 SUNDAY PROGRAM NOTES 31 the opening theme returns) appears not in the original D minor but in a strange D major that erupts out of calm like a scream, sounding not triumphant but some- how frightening. As coda there’s a funeral march over an ominous chromatic bass line. Beethoven had written funeral marches before, one the second movement of the Eroica Symphony. There we can imagine who died: the hero, or soldiers in bat- tle. Who died in the first movement of the Ninth? After that tragic coda comes the Dionysian whirlwind of the scherzo, one of Beetho- ven’s most electrifying and crowd-pleasing movements, also one of his most complex. Largely it is manic counterpoint dancing through dazzling changes of key, punctuated by timpani blasts. In the middle comes an astonishing Trio: a little wisp of folksong like you’d whistle on a summer day, growing through mounting repetitions into something hypnotic and monumental. So the second movement is made of com- plexity counterpoised by almost childlike simplicity—a familiar pattern of Beethoven’s late music. Then comes one of those singing, time-stopping Adagios that also mark his last period. It is alternating variations on two long-breathed, major-key themes. The variations of the first theme are liquid, meandering, like trailing your hand in water beside a drifting boat. There are moments of yearning, little dance turns, everything unfolding in an atmosphere of uncanny beauty. The choral finale is easy to outline, hard to explain. Scholars have never quite agreed on its formal model, though it clearly involves a series of variations on the “Joy” theme. But why does this celebration of joy open with a dissonant shriek that Richard Wagner called the “terror fanfare,” shattering the tranquility of the slow movement? Then the basses enter in a quasi-recitative, as if from an oratorio but wordless. We begin to hear recollections of the previous movements, each rebuffed in turn by the basses: opening of the first movement... no, not that despair; second movement... no, too frivolous; third movement... nice, the basses sigh, but no, too sweet. (Beethoven originally sketched a singer declaiming words to that effect, but he decided to leave the ideas suggested rather than spelled out.) This, then: the ingenuous little Joy theme is played by the basses unaccompanied, sounding rather like somebody (say, the composer) quietly humming to himself. The theme picks up lovely flowing accompaniments, begins to vary. Then, out of nowhere, back to the terror fanfare. Now in response a real singer steps up to sing a real recitative: “Oh friends, not these sounds! Rather let’s strike up something more agreeable and joyful.” Soon the chorus is crying “Freude!”—“Joy!”—and the piece is off, exalting joy as the god-engendered daughter of Elysium, under whose influence love could flour- ish, humanity unite in peace. The variations unfold with their startling contrasts. We hear towering choral proclamations of the theme. We hear a grunting, lurching mil- itary march heroic in context (“Joyfully, like a hero toward victory”) but light unto satiric in tone, in a style the Viennese called “Turkish.” That resolves inexplicably into an exalted double fugue. We hear a kind of Credo reminiscent of Gregorian chant (“Be embraced, you millions! Here’s a kiss for all the world!”). In a spine- tingling interlude we are exhorted to fall on our knees and contemplate the Godhead (“Seek him beyond the stars”), followed by another double fugue. The coda is boundless jubilation, again hailing the daughter of Elysium. So the finale’s episodes are learned, childlike, ecclesiastical, sublime, Turkish. In his quest for universality, is Beethoven embracing the ridiculous alongside the sublime? Is he signifying that the world he’s embracing includes the elevated and the popular, West and East? Does the unsettled opening movement imply a rejection of the heroic voice that dominated his middle years, making way for another path?

32 In a work so elusive and kaleidoscopic, a number of perspectives suggest themselves. One is seeing the Ninth in light of its sister work, the Missa Solemnis. At the end of Beethoven’s Mass the chorus is declaiming “Dona nobis pacem,” the concluding prayer for peace, when the music is interrupted by the drums and trumpets of war. Just before the choir sings its last entreaty, the drums are still rolling in the distance. The Mass ends, then, with an unanswered prayer. Beethoven’s answer to that prayer is the Ninth Symphony, where hope and peace are not demanded of the heavens. Once when a composer showed Beethoven a work on which he had written “Finished with the help of God,” Beethoven wrote under it: “Man, help yourself!” In the Ninth he directs our gaze upward to the divine, but ultimately returns it to ourselves. Through Schiller’s exalted drinking song, Beethoven proclaims that the gods have given us joy so we can find Elysium on earth, as brothers and sisters, husbands and wives. In the end, though, the symphony presents us as many questions as answers, and its vision of utopia is proclaimed, not attained. What can be said with some certainty is that its position in the world is probably what Beethoven wanted it to be. In an un precedented way for a composer, he stepped into history with a great ceremonial work that doesn’t simply preach a sermon about freedom and brotherhood, but aspires to help bring them to pass. Partly because of its enigmas, so many ideologies have claimed the music for their own; over two centuries Communists, Christians, Nazis, and humanists have joined in the chorus. Leonard Bernstein conducted the Ninth at the celebration of the fall of the Berlin Wall, and what else would do the job? Now the Joy theme is the anthem of the European Union, a symbol of nations joining together. If you’re looking for the universal, here it is. One final perspective. The symphony emerges from a whispering mist to fateful proclamations. The finale’s Joy theme, prefigured in bits and pieces from the begin- ning, is almost constructed before our ears, hummed through, then composed and recomposed and decomposed. Which is to say, the Ninth is also music about music, about its own emerging, about its composer composing. And for what? “Be embraced, you millions! This kiss for all the world!” run the telling lines in the finale, in which Beethoven erected a movement of monumental scope on a humble little tune that anybody can sing, and probably half the world knows. The Ninth Symphony, forming and dissolving before our ears in its beauty and ter- ror and simplicity and complexity, is itself Beethoven’s embrace for the millions, from East to West, high to low, naive to sophisticated. When the bass soloist speaks the first words in the finale, an invitation to sing for joy, the words come from Beethoven, not Schiller. It’s the composer talking to everybody, to history. There’s something singularly moving about that moment when Beethoven greets us person to person, with glass raised, and hails us as friends.

Boston University Tanglewood Institute Boston University Tanglewood Institute (BUTI) is recognized internationally as a premier summer training program for advanced young musicians ages 10–20, and is the only program of its kind associated with a major university and one of the world’s great symphony orchestras. BUTI’s intensive and innovative programs, distinguished faculty, and the opportunities afforded through its unique affiliation with the Boston Symphony Orchestra and Tanglewood Music Center have combined to give it a celebrated and distinctive reputation among its peers. Founded in 1966, BUTI resulted from the vision of Erich Leinsdorf, then music director of the BSO, who invited Boston University College of Fine Arts to create a summer program that would complement the existing offerings of the BSO’s Tanglewood Music Center. More than fifty years later, BUTI continues to build upon its legacy of excellence, annually offering a transformative experience to more than 400 young instrumentalists, composers, and singers from across the country and around the world. BUTI alumni contribute to today’s musical world as prominent performers and conductors, com- posers and educators, and administrators, supporters, and audience members. Currently, fifteen members of the BSO are BUTI alumni. (photo by Stratton McCrady) Each summer, BUTI presents more than 100 performances throughout the Berkshires, including six concerts in Seiji Ozawa Hall. All events are free and open to the public unless otherwise noted. For more information about BUTI, please stop by our office on the Leonard Bernstein Campus on the Tanglewood grounds, call 617.353.3386, or visit us online at bu.edu/tanglewood.
