On August 13, 15, and 16, 1936, the Boston Symphony Orchestra gave its first concerts in the Berkshire Hills of western ; music director conducted. But those outdoor concerts, attended by a total of 15,000 people, did not take place at Tanglewood: the orchestra performed nearby 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, under the direction of composer/conductor Henry Hadley. But after a second concert series in 1935, plans for 1936 proved difficult, for reasons including Hadley’s health and aspects of the musical programming; 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 the BSO’s concerts that summer, 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. The offer was gratefully accepted, a two-weekend festival was planned for 1937, and on August 5 that year, the festival’s largest crowd to date assembled under a tent for the first Tanglewood concert, an all-Beethoven program. At the all-Wagner concert that opened the 1937 festival’s second 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 inter- mission, 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 far beyond the festival’s immediate needs, and also well beyond the $100,000 budget. When his second, simplified plans were again deemed too expensive,

A banner advertising the 1939 Berkshire Symphonic Festival (BSO Archives) he finally 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 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. It has resounded to the music of the Boston Symphony Orchestra every summer since, except for the war years 1942-45, and has become almost a place of pilgrimage to millions of concertgoers. In 1959, as the result of a collabora- tion between the acoustical consultant Bolt Beranek and Newman and archi- tect Eero Saarinen and Associates, the installation of the then-unique Edmund Hawes Talbot Orchestra Canopy, along with other improve- After the storm of August 12, 1937, which precipitated a fundraising drive ments, produced the Shed’s present for the construction of the Tanglewood Shed (BSO Archives) world-famous acoustics. In 1988, on the occasion of its fiftieth anniversary, the Shed was rededicated as “The Serge Kousse- vitzky Music Shed,” recognizing the far-reaching vision of the BSO’s legendary music director. In 1940, the Berkshire Music Center (now the Tanglewood Music Center) began its operations. By 1941 the Theatre-Concert Hall, the Chamber Music Hall, and several small studios were finished, and the festival had so expanded its activities and reputation for excellence that it drew nearly 100,000 visitors. With the Boston Symphony Orchestra’s acqui- sition in 1986 of the Highwood estate adjacent to Tanglewood, the stage was set for the expan- sion 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 Tanglewood 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—the first new concert facility built at Tanglewood in more than a half-century— was inaugurated on July 7, 1994, providing a The tent at Holmwood, where the BSO played modern venue throughout the summer for its first Berkshire Symphonic Festival concerts in 1936 (BSO Archives) TMC concerts, and for the varied re- cital and chamber music concerts offered by the Boston Symphony Orchestra and its guests. Ozawa Hall with its attendant buildings also serves as the focal point of the Tanglewood Music Center’s Campus. Also each summer, the Boston University Tanglewood Institute sponsors a variety of programs offering individ- ual and ensemble instruction to talented younger students, mostly of high school age. Today, Tanglewood annually draws more than 300,000 visitors. Besides the concerts of the Boston Symphony Orchestra, there is a full schedule of chamber music and recital programs featuring prestigious guest artists in Ozawa Hall, Prelude Concerts, Saturday- morning Open Rehearsals, the annual Festival of Contemporary Music, and almost daily concerts by the gifted young musicians of the Tanglewood Music Center. The Boston Pops Orchestra appears annually, and the calendar also features concerts by a variety of jazz and other non-classical artists. The season offers not only a vast quantity of music, but also a vast range of musical forms and styles, all of it 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 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 with the intention of creating a first-class music academy where, with the resources of a great symphony orchestra at their disposal, young instrumentalists, vocalists, conductors, and composers would sharpen their skills under the tutelage of Boston Symphony musi- cians 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 to the war then raging in Europe. “So long as art and culture exist there is hope for humanity.” Randall Thompson’s Alleluia for unaccompanied chorus, Then BSO music director Seiji Ozawa, with bass drum, lead- specially written for the ceremony, ing a group of Music Center percussionists during a rehearsal arrived less than an hour before the for Tanglewood on Parade in 1976 (BSO Archives/photo by event began; but it made such an Heinz Weissenstein, Whitestone Photo) impression that it continues to be performed at each summer’s opening ceremonies. The TMC was Koussevitzky’s pride and joy for the rest of his life. He assembled an extraordinary faculty in composition, 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 Tanglewood Music Center 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 school’s reins, returning to Koussevitzky’s hands-on leadership approach while 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 Bernstein as general advisor. Leon Fleisher was the TMC’s artistic direc- tor from 1985 to 1997. In 1994, with the opening of Seiji Ozawa Hall, the TMC cen- tralized its activities on the Leonard Bernstein Campus, which also includes the Aaron Copland Library, chamber music studios, administrative offices, and the Leonard Bernstein Performers Pavilion adjacent to Ozawa Hall. Ellen Highstein became Direc- tor 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 train- ing—participate in an intensive program encompassing chamber and orchestral music, opera, and art song, with a strong emphasis on music of the 20th and 21st cen- turies. All participants receive full fellowships that underwrite tuition, room, and board. It would be impossible to list all of the distinguished musicians who have studied at the Tanglewood Music Center. 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 of the Tanglewood Music Center include , Luciano Berio, Leonard Bernstein, Stephanie Blythe, William Bolcom, Phyllis Curtin, David Del Tredici, Christoph von Dohnányi, Jacob Druckman, Lukas Foss, Michael Gandolfi, John Harbison, Gilbert Kalish, Oliver Knussen, Lorin Maazel, , , Sherrill Milnes, Osvaldo Golijov, Seiji Ozawa, , Ned Rorem, Sanford Sylvan, Cheryl Studer, , Dawn Upshaw, Shirley Verrett, and David Zinman. Today, alumni of the Tanglewood Music Center play a vital role in the musical life of the nation. Tanglewood and the Tanglewood Music Center, projects with which Serge Koussevitzky was involved until his death, have become a fitting shrine to his memory, a living embodiment of the vital, humanistic tradition that was his legacy. At the same time, the Tanglewood Music Center maintains its commitment to the future. Koussevit- zky conceived of the TMC as a laboratory in which the future of the musical arts would be discovered and explored, and the institution remains one of the world’s most important training grounds for the composers, conductors, instrumentalists, and vocalists of tomorrow.

From “The Berkshire Evening Eagle,” Thursday, August 4, 1938 (BSO Archives)

An exhibit commemorating the 75th anniversary of the Koussevitzky Music Shed has been mounted in the Tanglewood Visitor Center by the BSO Archives. The exhibit traces the origins of the Shed back to 1936, when Serge Koussevitzky and the BSO were first invited to perform in the Berkshire Symphonic Festival. Drawing on materials in the BSO Archives, the Stockbridge Library, the Lenox Library, and the Koussevitzky Collection at the Library of Congress, the exhibit covers the selection of Finnish architect Eliel Saarinen in 1937 to design a permanent structure; the modification of his plans by Stockbridge engineer Joseph Franz; and the construction of the Shed in 1938. The BSO extends special thanks to the Stockbridge Library Association Historical Collections for the loan of Joseph Franz’s model of the Shed, and for making photographs and documents available from the collections of Joseph Franz and David Milton Jones, with thanks also to the Lenox Library for access to Festi- val co-founder Gertrude Robinson Smith’s papers, and to the Library of Congress Music Division for access to the Koussevitzky Collection.

Leonard Bernstein Portrait Series at Highwood Also on display this year, at the Highwood Manor House, is a selection of oil paintings and photographs of Leonard Bernstein, including a 1958 oil painting of Bernstein (shown here) by Mirel Bercovici, donated in 2012 by her daughter Mirana Comstock and currently on view in High- wood’s main dining room.

Now in its 132nd season, the Boston Symphony Orchestra gave its inaugural concert in 1881, realizing the dream of its founder, the Civil War veteran/businessman/philan- thropist , 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 impor- tant 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 interna- tional standard 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. (BSO Archives) An 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 ini- tiatives 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 Karl Muck, who

The first photograph, actually an 1882 collage, of the Boston Symphony Orchestra under Georg Henschel (BSO Archives) served two tenures, 1906-08 and 1912-18. In 1915 the orchestra made its first transcon- tinental trip, playing thirteen concerts at the Panama-Pacific International Exposition in San Francisco. Henri Rabaud, engaged as conductor in 1918, was succeeded a year later by Pierre Monteux. These appointments marked the beginning of a French tradi- tion 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 Tanglewood Music Center). Koussevitzky was succeeded in 1949 by Charles Munch, who continued supporting con- temporary composers, introduced much French music to the repertoire, and led the BSO on its first international 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 1969 by William Steinberg. Seiji Ozawa became the BSO’s thir- teenth 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 On the lawn at Tanglewood in 1941, with a sign promoting a mainland China after the nor- gala benefit concert for the United Service Organizations and malization of relations. British War Relief (BSO Archives/courtesy The Berkshire Eagle) , named principal guest conductor in 1995 and Conductor Emeritus in 2004, has led the BSO in Boston, New York, at Tanglewood, 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 , from 1972 to 1984. The first American-born conductor to hold the position, 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, particu- larly from significant American composers; issued a number of live concert perform- ances on the orchestra’s own label, BSO Classics; taught at the Tanglewood 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 initiat- ed when the internationally acclaimed young Latvian conductor Andris Nelsons was announced as the BSO’s next music director, a position he takes up in the 2014-15 season, following a year as music director designate (see next page). 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. Andris Nelsons Named Next BSO Music Director

On May 16, 2013, the Boston Symphony Orchestra announced the appointment of Andris Nelsons as the BSO’s fifteenth music director since its founding in 1881. Born in Riga in 1978 into a family of musicians, he becomes the youngest music director to lead the orchestra in more than 100 years, and the first Latvian-born con- ductor to assume that post. Mr. Nelsons will serve as BSO Music Director Designate for the 2013-14 season and become the Ray and Maria Stata Music Director beginning in the fall of 2014. At thirty- four, he is the third-youngest conductor to be appointed music director since the BSO’s founding in 1881: Georg Henschel was thirty- one when he became the orchestra’s first music director in 1881, and Arthur Nikisch was thirty-three when he opened his first season with the BSO in 1889. Andris Nelsons is one of the most sought-after conductors on the international scene today, acclaimed for his work in both concert and opera with such distinguished institutions as the Berlin Philhar- monic, Vienna Philharmonic, the Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra Andris Nelsons conducting the BSO of Amsterdam, the Gewandhaus Orchestra of Leipzig, the Bavarian at Symphony Hall, January 2013 Radio Symphony, Vienna State Opera, , Vienna (photo by Stu Rosner) State Opera, Bayreuth Festival, and the , Covent Garden. Since 2008 he has been music director of the City of Birmingham Symphony Orchestra (CBSO), with which he has toured worldwide. He made his debut in Japan on tour with the Vienna Philharmonic and returns to the Far East on tour with the CBSO in November 2013. Prior to his position as the CBSO’s music director, he served as principal conductor of the Nordwestdeutsche Philharmonie in Herford, Germany, from 2006 to 2009, and was music director of the Latvian National Opera from 2003 to 2007. Mr. Nelsons began his career as a trumpeter in the Latvian National Opera Orchestra before studying conducting. He is married to the soprano Kristīne Opolais, who was recently acclaimed for her Metropolitan Opera debut as Magda in Puccini’s La rondine. They live in Riga with their one-and-a-half-year-old daughter Adriana. Andris Nelsons made his Boston Symphony Orchestra debut in March 2011, leading Mahler’s Symphony No. 9 at Carnegie Hall in place of James Levine, whom he succeeds as music director. Last summer he conducted both the BSO and the Tanglewood Music Center Orchestra as part of Tanglewood’s 75th Anniversary Celebration, following that the next after- noon with a BSO program of Stravinsky and Brahms. He made his BSO subscription series debut in January 2013, leads the BSO in Verdi’s at Tanglewood this sum- mer on July 27 (with Kristīne Opolais among the soloists), and, as BSO Music Director Designate, he will lead a pro- gram of Wagner, Mozart, and Brahms at Symphony Hall in (photo ©Marco Borggreve) October, followed by a one-night-only concert performance of ’s opera Salome in March. “I am deeply honored and touched that the Boston Symphony Orchestra has appointed me its next music director, as it is one of the highest achievements a conductor could hope for in his lifetime,” said Maestro Nelsons. “Each time I have worked with the BSO I have been inspired by how effectively it gets to the heart of the music, always leaving its audience with a great wealth of emotions. So it is with great joy that I truly look forward to joining this wonder- ful musical family and getting to know the beautiful city of Boston and the community that so clearly loves its great orchestra. As I consider my future with the Boston Sym- phony, I imagine us working closely together to bring the deepest passion and love that we all share for music to ever greater numbers of music fans in Boston, at Tanglewood, and throughout the world.”

NOTES ON THE PROGRAM

Hugo Wolf (1860-1903) was first and foremost a vocal composer. His songs—there are several hundred—represent for many a pinnacle of the genre in the second half of the nineteenth century. Like Schubert, Wolf grew up in an environment in which his earliest compositional efforts were performed by friends and extended family 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. Talented but prone to mood swings and uninterested in anything but music, at fifteen he was allowed to move to Vienna to stay with an aunt while he attended the Vienna

2 Conservatory. (There he became friendly with Mahler, also a conservatory student at that time.) The development of his style was affected by hero-worship of Wagner, whom he met briefly in 1875. A later encounter with the gruff Brahms in 1879 solid- ified his membership in the pro-Wagner and Liszt, anti-Brahms camp. By that time, he had been dismissed from the Conservatory for disciplinary reasons, and was mak- ing a living teaching music to the children of well-to-do Viennese families (a situation, given his impatience for this vocation, that amounted to patronage). Throughout his life, in spite of some successes, he was frustrated by lack of opportunity for per- formances of his music. With the exception of orchestrations of his songs, the Italian Serenade in its expanded scoring for string orchestra is the only Wolf work to be heard with any frequency in the orchestral repertoire. The piece began life as it is performed here, however—as a movement for string quartet. He wrote the piece in 1887, later deciding to enlarge it as a suite for string orchestra in several movements, although this was never com- pleted and the orchestral version remains just a single movement. Like a tiny sym- phonic poem, the piece seems to harbor a narrative of sorts with its strong themes and contrasting sections, worked out in a flowing, organic structure. Wolf, who had never been to Italy when he wrote this piece, seems to have been influenced as much by Franz Liszt’s fascination with and travels in Italy as by Liszt’s music. The first time (1840-1893) visited Florence with his brother Anatoly in the fall of 1877 he found it depressing. Nonetheless, something drew him back again and again, and he did some of his best work there—the Fourth Symphony, , the Suite for Orchestra No. 1, part of The Maid of Orleans, and much later The Queen of Spades. He owed the city what he thought of as “the happiest months of my life.” It was an escape from Moscow and at the same time it always made him nostalgic for home, marveling that as he basked in Tuscan sun- shine it was winter in Moscow, with “Muscovites, men and women, walking by... wrapped in furs, the quiet undisturbed by the noise of carriages, sleighs sliding silently by...” And once at least, to get to something more like home without actually returning, he left Florence for the colder March of Switzerland. In January 1890, Tchaikovsky, soon to be fifty, journeyed to Florence for what turned out to be the last time. On the last day of the month he began the score of The Queen of Spades, and he had made immense progress by the time he left at the end of March. As relaxation he turned to chamber music. The sketch of what was to be called Souvenir de Florence was completed in July and the full score in August: “I wrote it with the utmost pleasure and enthusiasm, and with no effort whatsoever,” he reported to his patroness Nadezhda von Meck (actually while work was still in progress). He arranged for a private hearing in November during the rehearsals for The Queen of Spades and on the basis of that resolved to rework the third and fourth movements. He was also busy with his opera Yolanta, with , and the symphonic ballad The Voyevode, with the result that work on Souvenir de Florence was

TANGLEWOODWEEK 1 PRELUDEPROGRAMNOTES 3 not finished until January 1892. The first public performance was given at a concert of the St. Petersburg Chamber Music Society on December 6, 1892, the players being Leopold Auer, Emmanuel Krüger, Franz Hildebrandt, Sergey Korguyev, Alexander Verzhbilovich, and Alexander Kuznetsov. Three string quartets, the A minor piano trio, and Souvenir de Florence comprise Tchaikovsky’s major works for chamber ensemble. The Florentine sextet is the last and the finest, rich in expansive and often subtly harmonized melody, gorgeously scored, and aglow with vitality and love.

10 NOTES ON THE PROGRAM

Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky (1840-1893) Violin Concerto in D, Opus 35 First performance: December 4, 1881, Vienna Philharmonic, Hans Richter cond., Adolf Brodsky, soloist. First BSO performances: January 1900, Wilhelm Gericke cond., Alexandre Petschnikoff, soloist. First Tanglewood performance: August 4, 1949, Serge Koussevitzky cond., , soloist. Most recent Tanglewood performance: July 19, 2008, Leonard Slatkin cond., Midori, soloist. In his rich and perceptive four-volume biography of Tchaikovsky, David Brown de- votes the entire second volume to a narrow span of four years in the composer’s life, as indicated by the volume’s subtitle: “The Crisis Years, 1874-1878.” The crisis was a real one and it had complicated elements, both professional and personal. Its centerpiece was the composer’s catastrophic marriage, a step taken in the hope of stopping supposition about his homosexuality. He and his bride had scarcely started off on their honeymoon before the composer recognized the folly of his action. In torment, he ran away to Switzerland to try to forget. It was there that he composed the Violin Concerto. The marriage was by no means Tchaikovsky’s only crisis during those years. At the beginning of the period in question, he had composed a piano con- certo for his close friend Nikolai Rubinstein, only to have the pianist declare the work worthless and unplayable. Utterly dismayed, Tchaikovsky finally managed to arrange a performance in far-away Boston—so that if it were a flop, he would not have to be present to hear it himself. Ironically that concerto rather quickly became one of the most popular of all piano concertos. Soon after, Tchaikovsky composed the ballet Swan Lake, arguably the finest ballet score of the entire nine- teenth century, though it was a failure in its first production, and the composer went to his grave without ever knowing that the world would regard his work as a master- piece. There were some assorted triumphs, though. The Fourth Symphony—deeply etched with his Slavic fatalism—was not only a success, but marked one of the first major works that he composed with the extraordinary patronage of Nadezhda von Meck, who sent him a regular stipend for a dozen years on the strict understanding that they were never to meet. The grateful composer declared that in the future his every note would be composed with an implicit dedication to her. But in the aftermath of his marriage there was only flight—frantic determination to get away. His wife Antonina was staying at Kamenka with the composer’s sister and her husband. Letters passed back and forth between all the members of the family, with Antonina sometimes making wild charges (such as the one that Tchaikovsky’s valet had bewitched him into hating her), sometimes expressing hope for a reconcil- iation, despite Tchaikovsky’s repeated insistence that such a thing could never be. He spent some months in Italy, where several of his brothers joined him, and he gradually grew calmer in the contemplation of Italian art and the Italian countryside. But financial necessity forced him to find a cheaper place to stay, and on March 9, 1878, he arrived in Clarens, Switzerland. He quickly telegraphed his student, friend, and possible lover, the violinist Yosif Kotek, who was then in Berlin, to inform him of the change of address. On the thirteenth he began a piano sonata, his first act of composition since the wedding. The next day Kotek arrived in Clarens. Within a few days, Tchaikovsky abandoned the piano sonata, which was not going well. Within a day or two, he and Kotek played through Lalo’s Symphonie espagnole, which, in spite of its title, is a violin concerto. His interest in this piece (he noted that it had “a lot

TANGLEWOODWEEK 1 FRIDAYPROGRAMNOTES 11 of freshness, lightness, of piquant rhythms, of beautiful and excellently harmonized melodies”) may well have turned his own mind in the direction of a violin concerto. He liked the way that Lalo does not strive after profundity, but carefully avoids routine, seeks out new forms, and thinks more about musical beauty than about observing established traditions, as do the Germans. Perhaps this experience persuaded him to give up the sonata entirely and turn to a concerto, particularly since he had a violinist at hand to give him technical advice about the solo part. On March 17 he began the new piece and discovered to his de- light that—unlike the piano sonata—it went easily. In just eleven days he sketched the entire concerto. The composer’s brother Modest and Kotek expressed reserva- tions about the slow movement, though they were enthusiastic about the two outer movements. Upon consideration, Tchaikovsky agreed with them, and on April 5 he replaced the original slow movement with a new piece. The enthusiasm of all three men was so great that Tchaikovsky finished the orchestration, too, in short order. By April 11 the concerto was complete. Now, however, he was in for another professional crisis—a repetition of his experi- ence with the First Piano Concerto. He dedicated the new work to Leopold Auer, hoping naturally that he would play the first performance, which was, in fact, adver- tised for March 22, 1879. The work had already been published, and Auer regretted (so he wrote thirty years later) that he had not been consulted before the work had been fixed in print. Auer is supposed to have declared the work to be “unplayable,” though he later defended himself by explaining that he meant only that, as written, some of the virtuoso passages would not sound as they should. In any case, Tchaikovsky was deeply wounded. Kotek himself declined to play the work in Russia. Two years later Tchaikovsky learned from his publisher that Adolf Brodsky had learned the piece and was planning to play it in Vienna. That perform- ance, which took place at the end of 1881, called forth one of the most notorious reviews by Vienna’s conservative music critic Eduard Hanslick. Tchaikovsky never got over it; to the end of his life he could quote it by heart. The Russian composer Tchaikovsky is surely no ordinary talent, but rather, an inflated one, obsessed with posturing as a genius, lacking discrimination and taste.... The same can be said for his new, long, and ambitious Violin Concerto. For a while it proceeds soberly, musically, and not mindlessly, but soon vulgarity

12 gains the upper hand and dominates until the end of the first movement. The violin is no longer played; it is tugged about, torn, beaten black and blue.... The Adagio is well on the way to reconciling us and winning us over, but it soon breaks off to make way for a finale that transports us to the brutal and wretched jollity of a Russian church festival. We see a host of savage, vulgar faces, we hear crude curses, and smell the booze. In the course of a discussion of obscene illus- trations, Friedrich Vischer once maintained that there were pictures which one could see stink. Tchaikovsky’s Violin Concerto for the first time confronts us with the hideous idea that there may be compositions whose stink one can hear. Hanslick, sitting in Vienna, found Russia, and everything Russian, as represented in Tchaikovsky’s music, to be uncivilized. How ironic that, among his contemporaries, Tchaikovsky was regarded as the westernized Russian, the one who had spurned the truly nationalistic approach of “The Five.” In any case, we have trouble today locating the “stink” in this music. For more than a century it has simply been one of the four or five most popular violin concertos in the literature, which is answer enough to Hanslick.

Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky (1840-1893) Symphony No. 5 in E minor, Opus 64 First performance: November 17, 1888, St. Petersburg, Tchaikovsky cond. First BSO per- formance: October 22, 1892, Arthur Nikisch cond. First Berkshire Festival performance: August 16, 1936, Boston Symphony Orchestra, Serge Koussevitzky cond. First Tangle- wood performance: August 11, 1940, Boston Symphony Orchestra, Koussevitzky cond. Most recent Tanglewood performance: July 29, 2012, Charles Dutoit cond. Since the premiere of his Fourth Symphony in 1878, ten years had gone by, years in which Tchaikovsky’s international reputation was consolidated, in which he had come to feel the need to give up his teaching at the Moscow Conservatory so as to have more time for composing, in which he began to be active as a conductor, in which he finished Eugene Onegin and three unsuccessful but not uninteresting operas (The Maid of Orleans, Mazeppa, and The Sorceress), in which he com- posed the Violin Concerto and the Second Piano Concerto, the three orches- tral suites and Mozartiana, the Italian Capriccio, the Serenade for Strings, the , the Vespers Service, the A minor trio, the Manfred Symphony, and some of his most appealing songs. Tchaikovsky himself led the premiere of his Fifth Symphony on November 26, 1888, in St. Petersburg. The Fourth had been the symphony of triumph over fate and was in that sense, and admittedly, an imitation of Beethoven’s Fifth. For Tchaikovsky’s own Fifth, we have nothing as explicitly revealing as the correspondence in which he set out the program of the Fourth for his patroness, Nadezhda von Meck. There is, however, a notebook page outlining a scenario for the first move- ment: “Introduction. Complete resignation before Fate, or, which is the same, before the inscrutable predestination of Providence. Allegro. (I) Murmurs, doubts, plaints, reproaches against XXX. (II) Shall I throw myself in the embraces of faith???” XXX is less likely to be a particular person than what he usually refers to in his diary

TANGLEWOODWEEK 1 FRIDAYPROGRAMNOTES 13 14 as Z or THAT—his homosexuality, which caused him deep pain and which, in addi- tion, terrified him as a potential cause of scandal. To pursue Tchaikovsky’s verbal plan through the first movement as he finally composed it is fruitless. (He also dis- liked attempts to interpret musical processes in too literal—and literary—a manner.) Clearly, though, the theme with which the clarinets in their lowest register begin the symphony has a function other than its musical one: it will recur as a catastroph- ic interruption of the second movement’s love song, as an enervated ghost that approaches the languid dancers of the waltz, and—in a metamorphosis that is per- haps the symphony’s least convincing musical and expressive gesture—in majestic and blazing E major triumph. Tchaikovsky’s wonderful gift of melody, his delight in “strong effects” and his skill at bringing them off, his fire and sentiment—these need neither introduction nor advocacy. As to the orchestra, Tchaikovsky produces remarkable effect with remark- able economy. His orchestra is anything other than extravagant, but the power and vividness of its fortissimo is amazing. And what delight there is in his delicate pas- sages—the color of the low strings in the introduction (with those few superbly cal- culated interventions of the second violins); the beautifully placed octaves of clar- inet and bassoon when the Allegro begins its melancholy and graceful song; the growls into which that movement subsides (with the timpani roll as the top note in a chord of cellos, basses, and bassoon); the low strings again in the measures that introduce the second movement’s famous horn solo; those great, swinging pizzicato chords that break the silence after the catastrophe; those faintly buzzing notes for stopped horns in the waltz; the enchantingly inventive filigree throughout the mid- dle part of that movement; those propulsive chuggings of cellos, basses, drums, and bassoons in the finale; the tough brilliance of the woodwind lines and the firmness of their basses. The composer’s own feelings about his Fifth Symphony blew hot and cold, not only about the music itself, but even as to whether he might have been “played out” as a composer. Of course Tchaikovsky had not written himself out. As soon as he returned from a journey to Prague, where the experience of conducting the Fifth produced the most depressed of all his reports on that work, he began work on The Sleeping Beauty. Within another year his finest operatic score, The Queen of Spades, was on its way, with The Nutcracker and Pathétique Symphony yet to come.

TANGLEWOODWEEK 1 SATURDAYPROGRAM 19 20 NOTES ON THE PROGRAM

Gustav Mahler (1860-1911) Symphony No. 3 First complete performance (some movements having already been introduced piecemeal): June 9, 1902, Allgemeiner Deutscher Musikverein, Krefeld, Mahler cond. First BSO perform- ances: (first movement only) March 1943, Richard Burgin cond.; (complete score) January 1962, Richard Burgin cond., Florence Kopleff, soloist, with the Chorus Pro Musica, Alfred Nash Patterson, cond. First Tanglewood performance: August 28, 1977, Seiji Ozawa cond., Birgit Finnilä, soloist, with the Tanglewood Festival Chorus, John Oliver, cond., and Boston Boy Choir, Theodore Marier, cond. Most recent Tanglewood performance by the Boston Symphony Orchestra: July 14, 2007, Boston Symphony Orches- tra, James Levine cond., Stephanie Blythe, mezzo-soprano, with the Tanglewood Festival Chorus, John Oliver, cond., and the American Boychoir, Fernando Malvar- Ruiz, cond. Most recent Tanglewood performance: July 17, 2010, Tanglewood Music Center Orchestra, Michael Tilson Thomas cond., Karen Cargill, mezzo-soprano, again with the Tanglewood Festival Chorus and the American Boychoir. When Mahler visited Sibelius in 1907—Mahler was then near to completing his Eighth Symphony—the two composers argued about “the essence of symphony,” Mahler rejecting his colleague’s creed of severity, style, and logic by counter- ing with “No, a symphony must be like the world. It must embrace every- thing.” Twelve years earlier, while actually at work on the Third, he had remarked that to “call it a symphony is really incorrect, as it does not follow the usual form. The term ‘symphony’—to me this means creating a world with all the technical means available.” The completion of the Second Symphony the previous summer had given him confidence: he was sure of being “in perfect control” of his technique. Now, in the summer of 1895, escaped for some months from his duties as principal conductor at the Hamburg Opera, installed in his new one-room cabin in Steinbach on the Attersee some twenty miles east of Salzburg, with his sister Justine and his friend Natalie Bauer-Lechner to look after him (this most crucially meant silencing crows, water birds, children, and whistling farmhands), Mahler set out to make a pantheistic world to which he gave the overall title The Happy Life— A Midsummer Night’s Dream (adding “not after Shakespeare, critics and Shakespeare mavens please note”). Before he wrote any music, he worked out a scenario in five sections, entitled What the forest tells me, What the trees tell me, What twilight tells me (“strings only” he noted), What the cuckoo tells me (scherzo), and What the child tells me. He changed all that five times during the summer as the music began to take shape in his mind and, with a rapidity that astonished him, on paper as well. The Happy Life disappeared, to be replaced for a while by the Nietzschean Gay Science (first My Gay Science). The trees, the twilight, and the cuckoo were all taken out, their places taken

TANGLEWOODWEEK 1 SATURDAYPROGRAMNOTES 21 by flowers, animals, and morning bells. He added What the night tells me and saw that he wanted to begin with the triumphal entry of summer, which would include an element of something Dionysiac and even frightening. In less than three weeks he composed what are now the second, third, fourth, and fifth movements. He went on to the Adagio and, by the time his composing vacation came to an end on August 20, he had made an outline of the first movement and composed two independent songs, Lied des Verfolgten in Turm (Song of the Prisoner in the Tower) and Wo die schönen Trompeten blasen (Where the beautiful trumpets sound). It was the richest summer of his life. In June 1896 he was back at Steinbach. He had made some progress scoring the new symphony and he had complicated his life by an intense and stormy affair with a young, superlatively gifted dramatic soprano newly come to the Hamburg Opera, Anna von Mildenburg. He also discovered when he got to Steinbach that he had for- gotten to bring the sketches of the first movement, and it was while waiting for them that he composed his little bouquet for critics, Lob des hohen Verstandes. In due course the sketches arrived, and Mahler, as he worked on them, gradually realized that the Awakening of Pan and the Triumphal March of Summer wanted to be one movement instead of two. He also saw, rather to his alarm, that the first movement was growing

22 hugely, that it would be more than half an hour long, and that it was also getting louder and louder. He deleted his finale, What the child tells me, which was the Life in Heaven song of 1892, putting it to work a few years later to serve as finale to the Fourth Symphony. That necessitated rewriting the last pages of the Adagio, which was now the last movement, but essentially the work was under control by the begin- ning of August. The Gay Science was still part of the title at the beginning of the sum- mer, coupled with what had become A Midsummer Noon’s Dream, but in the eighth and last of Mahler’s scenarios, dated August 6, 1896, the superscription is simply A Midsummer Noon’s Dream with the following titles given to the individual movements: First Part: Pan awakes. Summer comes marching in (Bacchic procession). Second Part: What the flowers in the meadow tell me What the animals in the forest tell me What humanity tells me What the angels tell me What love tells me At the premiere, the program page showed no titles at all, only tempo and generic indications. “Beginning with Beethoven,” wrote Mahler to the critic Max Kalbeck that year, “there is no modern music without its underlying program.—But no music is worth anything if you first have to tell the listener what experience lies behind it, respectively what he is supposed to experience in it.—And so yet again: pereat every program!—You just have to bring along ears and a heart and—not least—willingly surrender to the rhapsodist. Some residue of mystery always remains, even for the creator.” When, however, we look at the titles in the Third Symphony, we are, even though they were finally rejected, looking at an attempt, or a series of attempts, to put into a few words the material, the world of ideas, emotions, and associations that lay behind the choices Mahler made as he composed. We, too, can draw intimations from them, and then remove them as scaffolding we no longer need. And with that, let us turn to a brief look at the musical object Mahler left us. The first movement accounts for roughly one third of the symphony’s length. Start- ing with magnificent gaiety, it falls at once into a mood of tragedy—seesawing chords of low horns and bassoons, the drumbeats of a funeral procession, cries and out- rage. Mysterious twitterings follow, the suggestion of a distant quick march, and a grandly rhetorical recitative for the trombone. Against all that, Mahler poses a series

TANGLEWOODWEEK 1 SATURDAYPROGRAMNOTES 23

of quick marches (the realizations of what he had adumbrated earlier for just a few seconds), the sorts of tunes you can’t believe you haven’t known all your life and the sort that used to cause critics to complain of Mahler’s “banality,” elaborated and scored with an astounding combination of delicacy and exuberance. Their swagger is rewarded by a collision with catastrophe, and the whole movement—for all its out- size dimensions as classical a sonata form as Mahler ever made—is the conflict of the dark and the bright elements, culminating in the victory of the latter. Two other points might be made. One concerns Mahler’s fascination, not ignored in our century, with things happening “out of time.” The piccolo rushing the imita- tions of the violins’ little fanfares is not berserk: she is merely following Mahler’s di- rection to play “without regard for the beat.” That is playful, but the same device is turned to dramatic effect when, at the end of a steadily accelerating development, the snare drums cut across the oom-pah of the cellos and basses with a slower march tempo of their own, thus preparing the way for the eight horns in unison to blast the recapitulation into being. The other thing is to point out that several of the themes heard near the beginning will be transformed into the materials of the last three movements—fascinating especially when you recall that the first movement was written after the others. In the division of the work Mahler finally adopted, the first movement is the entire first section. What follows is, except for the finale, a series of shorter character pieces, beginning with the Blumenstück, the first music he composed for this symphony. It is a delicately sentimental minuet with access, in its contrasting section, to slightly sinister sources of energy. Curiously, it anticipates music not heard in the symphony at all, that is to say, the scurrying runs from the Life in Heaven song that was dropped from this design and finally made its way into the Fourth Symphony. In the third movement, Mahler draws on his song Ablösung im Sommer (Relief in Summer), whose text tells of waiting for Lady Nightingale to start singing as soon as the cuckoo is through. The marvel here is the landscape with posthorn, not only the lovely melody itself, but the way it is introduced: the magic transformation of the very “present” trumpet into distant posthorn, the gradual change of the post- horn’s melody from fanfare to song, the interlude for flutes, and, as Arnold Schoen- berg points out, the accompaniment “at first with the divided high violins, then, even more beautiful if possible, with the horns.” After the brief return of this idyll and before the snappy coda, Mahler makes spine-chilling reference to the “Great Summons” music in the Second Symphony’s finale. Low strings rock to and fro, the harps accenting a few of their notes, the seesawing horn chords from the first pages return, and a human voice intones the Midnight Song from Friedrich Nietzsche’s Thus spoke Zarathustra (see page 27). Each of its eleven lines is to be imagined as coming between the strokes of midnight. Pianississimo throughout, warns Mahler. From here, the music moves forward without a break, and as abruptly and drastically as it changed from the scherzo to Nietzsche’s midnight, so does it change from that darkness to the bells and angels of the fifth movement. The text comes from Des Knaben Wunderhorn (The Boy’s Magic Horn), though the interjections of “Du sollst ja nicht weinen” (“But you mustn’t weep”) are Mahler’s own. A three-part chorus of women’s voices carries most of the text, though the contralto returns to take the part of the sinner. The boys’ chorus, confined at first to bell noises, joins later in the exhortation “Liebe nur Gott” (“Only love God”) and for the final stanza. This move- ment, too, foreshadows the Life in Heaven that will not, in fact, occur until the Fourth Symphony: the solemnly archaic chords first heard at “Ich hab übertreten die Zehen

TANGLEWOODWEEK 1 SATURDAYPROGRAMNOTES 25 Gebot” (“I have trespassed against the Ten Commandments”) will be associated in the later work with details of the domestic arrangement in that mystical, sweetly scurrile picture of heaven. Violins drop out of the orchestra for this softly sonorous movement. The delicate balance between the regions of F (the quick marches of the first move- ment, and the third and fifth movements) and D (the dirges in the first movement, the Nietzsche song, and, by extension, the minuet, which is in A major) is now and finally resolved in favor of D. Mahler perceived that the decision to end the sympho- ny with an Adagio was one of the most special he made. “In Adagio movements,” he explained to Natalie Bauer-Lechner, “everything is resolved in quiet. The Ixion wheel of outward appearances is at last brought to a standstill. In fast movements—minuets, Allegros, even Andantes nowadays—everything is motion, change, flux. Therefore I have ended my Second and Third symphonies, contrary to custom... with Adagios— the higher form as distinguished from the lower.” A noble thought, but, not uniquely in Mahler, there is some gap between theory and reality. The Adagio makes its way at the last to a sure and grand conquest, but dur- ing its course—and this is a movement, like the first, on a very large scale—Ixion’s flaming wheel can hardly be conceived of as standing still. In his opening melody, Mahler invites association with the slow movement of Beethoven’s last quartet, Opus 135. Soon, though, the music is caught in “motion, change, flux,” and before the final triumph, it encounters again the catastrophe that interrupted the first move- ment. The Adagio’s original title, What love tells me, refers to Christian love—“agape”— and Mahler’s drafts carry the superscription: “Behold my wounds! Let not one soul be lost.” The performance directions, too, seem to speak to the issue of spirituality, for Mahler enjoins that the immense final bars with their thundering kettledrums be played “not with brute strength, [but] with rich, noble tone,” and that the last measure “not be cut off sharply,” so that there is some softness to the edge between sound and silence at the end of this most riskily and gloriously comprehensive of Mahler’s “worlds.”

This summer at Tanglewood with the Boston Symphony Orchestra, the Tanglewood Festival Chorus sings in Mahler’s Symphony No. 3 on July 6 with conductor Rafael Frühbeck de Burgos, Verdi’s Requiem on July 27 with conductor Andris Nelsons (who becomes BSO Music Director Designate this fall), Poulenc’s Stabat mater on August 2 with Stéphane Denève, Ravel’s complete Daphnis et Chloé on August 3 with Charles Dutoit, and Beethoven’s Ninth Symphony on August 25 with BSO LaCroix Family Fund Conductor Emeritus Bernard Haitink, as well as a Friday Prelude concert of its own on August 23, when John Oliver conducts an all-Britten program marking the centennial of the composer’s birth. Founded in January 1970 when conductor John Oliver was named Director of Choral and Vocal Activities at the Tanglewood Music Center, the Tanglewood Festival Chorus made its debut on April 11 that year, in a performance of Beethoven’s Ninth Symphony with Leonard Bernstein conducting the BSO. Made up of members who donate their time and talent, and formed originally under the joint

TANGLEWOODWEEK 1 GUESTARTISTS 29 sponsorship of Boston University and the Boston Symphony Orchestra for perform- ances during the Tanglewood season, the chorus originally numbered 60 well-trained Boston-area singers, soon expanded to a complement of 120 singers, and also began playing a major role in the BSO’s subscription season, as well as in BSO performances at New York’s Carnegie Hall. Now numbering over 300 members, the Tanglewood Festival Chorus performs year-round with the Boston Symphony Orchestra and Boston Pops. The chorus gave its first overseas performances in December 1994, touring with Seiji Ozawa and the BSO to Hong Kong and Japan. It performed with the BSO in Europe under James Levine in 2007 and Bernard Haitink in 2001, also giving a cappella concerts of its own on both occasions. In August 2011, with John Oliver conducting and soloist Stephanie Blythe, the Tanglewood Festival Chorus gave the world premiere of Alan Smith’s An Unknown Sphere for mezzo-soprano and chorus, commissioned by the BSO to mark the TFC’s 40th anniversary. The chorus’s first recording with the BSO, Berlioz’s with Seiji Ozawa, received a Grammy nomination for Best Choral Performance of 1975. In 1979 the ensemble received a Grammy nomination for its album of a cappella 20th-century American choral music recorded at the express invitation of Deutsche Grammophon, and its recording of Schoenberg’s Gurrelieder with Ozawa and the BSO was named Best Choral Recording by Gramophone magazine. The Tanglewood Festival Chorus has since made dozens of recordings with the BSO and Boston Pops, on Deutsche Grammophon, New World, Philips, Nonesuch, Telarc, Sony Classical, CBS Masterworks, RCA Victor Red Seal, and BSO Classics, with James Levine, Seiji Ozawa, Bernard Haitink, Sir Colin Davis, Leonard Bernstein, Keith Lockhart, and . Its most recent record- ings on BSO Classics, all drawn from live performances, include a disc of a cappella music released to mark the ensemble’s 40th anniversary in 2010, and, with James Levine and the BSO, Ravel’s complete Daphnis and Chloé (a Grammy-winner for Best Orches- tral Performance of 2009), Brahms’s Ein deutsches Requiem, and William Bolcom’s Eighth Symphony for chorus and orchestra, a BSO 125th Anniversary Commission composed specifically for the BSO and Tanglewood Festival Chorus. Besides their work with the Boston Symphony, members of the Tanglewood Festival Chorus have performed Beethoven’s Ninth Symphony with Zubin Mehta and the Israel Philharmonic at Tanglewood and at the Mann Music Center in Philadelphia; participated in a Saito Kinen Festival production of Britten’s Peter Grimes under Seiji Ozawa in Japan, and sang Verdi’s Requiem with Charles Dutoit to help close a month- long International Choral Festival given in and around Toronto. In February 1998, singing from the General Assembly Hall of the United Nations, the chorus represented

TANGLEWOODWEEK 1 GUESTARTISTS 31 the United States in the Opening Ceremonies of the Winter Olympics when Seiji Ozawa led six choruses on five continents, all linked by satellite, in Beethoven’s Ode to Joy. The chorus performed its Jordan Hall debut program at the New England Conservatory of Music in May 2004; had the honor of singing at Sen. Edward Kennedy’s funeral; has performed with the Boston Pops for the and , and can also be heard on the soundtracks to 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, western Massachusetts, Connecticut, Rhode Island, New Hampshire, Vermont, and Maine, and TFC alumni frequently return each summer from as far away as Florida and California to sing with the chorus at Tanglewood. Throughout its history, the Tanglewood Festival Chorus has established itself as a favorite of conductors, soloists, critics, and audiences alike.

John Oliver John Oliver founded the Tanglewood Festival Chorus in 1970 and has since prepared the TFC for more than 1000 performances, including appearances with the Boston Symphony Orchestra at Symphony Hall, Tanglewood, Carnegie Hall, and on tour in Europe and the Far East, as well as with visiting orchestras and as a solo ensemble. He has had a major impact on musical life in Boston and beyond through his work with countless TFC members, former students from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (where he taught for thirty-two years), and Fellows of the Tanglewood Music Center who now perform with distin- guished musical institutions throughout the world. Mr. Oliver’s affiliation with the Boston Symphony began in 1964 when, at twenty-four, he prepared the Sacred Heart Boychoir of Roslindale for the BSO’s performances and recording of excerpts from Berg’s Wozzeck led by Erich Leinsdorf. In 1966 he prepared the choir for the BSO’s performances and recording of Mahler’s Symphony No. 3, also with Leinsdorf, soon after which Leinsdorf asked him to assist with the choral and vocal music program at the Tanglewood Music Center. In 1970, Mr. Oliver was named Director of Vocal and Choral Activities at the Tanglewood Music Center and founded the Tanglewood Festival Chorus. He has since prepared the chorus in more than 200 works for chorus and orchestra, as well as dozens more a cappella pieces, and for more than forty commercial releases with James Levine, Seiji Ozawa, Bernard Haitink, Sir Colin Davis, Leonard Bernstein, Keith Lockhart, and John Williams. John Oliver made his Boston Symphony conducting debut in August 1985 at Tanglewood with Bach’s St. Matthew Passion and his BSO subscription series debut in December 1985 with Bach’s B minor Mass, later returning to the Tanglewood podium with music of Mozart in 1995 (to mark the TFC’s 25th anniversary), Beethoven’s Mass in C in 1998, and Bach’s motet Jesu, meine Freude in 2010 (to mark the TFC’s 40th anniversary). In February 2012, replacing Kurt Masur, he led the BSO and Tanglewood Festival Chorus in subscription performances of Beethoven’s Missa Solemnis, subsequently repeating that work with the BSO and TFC for his Carnegie Hall debut that March. In addition to his work with the Tanglewood Festival Chorus and Tanglewood Music Center, Mr. Oliver has held posts as conductor of the Framingham Choral Society, as a member of the faculty and director of the chorus at Boston University, and for many years on the faculty of MIT, where he was lecturer and then senior lecturer in music. While at MIT, he conducted the MIT Glee Club, Choral Society, Chamber Chorus, and Concert Choir. In 1977 he founded the John Oliver Chorale, which performed a wide- ranging repertoire encompassing masterpieces by Bach, Beethoven, Mozart, and Stra- vinsky, as well as seldom heard works by Carissimi, Bruckner, Ives, Martin, and Dalla- piccola. With the Chorale he recorded two albums for Koch International: the first of

TANGLEWOODWEEK 1 GUESTARTISTS 33 works by Martin Amlin, Elliott Carter, William Thomas McKinley, and Bright Sheng, the second of works by Amlin, Carter, and Vincent Persichetti. He and the Chorale also recorded Charles Ives’s The Celestial Country and Charles Loeffler’s Psalm 137 for Northeastern Records, and Donald Martino’s Seven Pious Pieces for New World Records. Mr. Oliver’s appearances as a guest conductor have included Mozart’s Requiem with the New Japan Philharmonic and Shinsei Chorus, and Mendelssohn’s Elijah and Vaughan Williams’s A Sea Symphony with the Berkshire Choral Institute. In May 1999 he prepared the chorus and children’s choir for André Previn’s performances of ’s Spring Symphony with the NHK Symphony in Japan; in 2001-02 he conducted the Carnegie Hall Choral Workshop in preparation for Previn’s Carnegie performance of Brahms’s Ein deutsches Requiem. John Oliver made his Montreal Sym- phony Orchestra debut in December 2011 conducting performances of Handel’s . In October 2011 he received the Alfred Nash Patterson Lifetime Achievement Award, presented by Choral Arts New England in recognition of his outstanding con- tributions to choral music. The 2013 Tanglewood season marks the 50th anniversary of Mr. Oliver’s Tanglewood debut.

The Boston University Tanglewood Institute (BUTI) In 1965, Erich Leinsdorf, then music director of the Boston Symphony Orchestra, invited the Boston University College of Fine Arts to create a summer training program for high school musicians as a counterpart to the BSO’s Tanglewood Music Center. Envisioned as an educational outreach initiative for the University, this new program would provide young advanced musicians with unprecedented opportunity for access to the Tanglewood Festival. Since then, the students of the Boston University Tanglewood Institute have participat- ed in the unique environment of Tanglewood, sharing rehearsal and performance spaces; attending a selection of BSO master classes, rehearsals, and activities; and enjoying unlim- ited access to all performances of the Boston Symphony Orchestra and the Tanglewood Music Center. Now in its 48th season, the Boston University Tanglewood Institute continues to offer aspiring young artists an unparalleled, inspiring, and transforming musical experience. Its intensive (photo by Kristen Seavey) programs, distinguished faculty, beautiful cam- pus, and interaction with the BSO and TMC make BUTI unique among summer music programs for high school musicians. BUTI alumni are prominent in the world of music as performers, composers, conductors, edu- cators, and administrators. The Institute includes Young Artists Programs for students age fourteen to nineteen (Orchestra, Voice, Wind Ensemble, Piano, Harp, and Composition) as well as Institute Workshops (Clarinet, Flute, Oboe, Bassoon, Saxophone, Trumpet, Horn, Trombone, Tuba/Euphonium, Percussion, Double Bass, and String Quartet). Many of the students are supported, by the BUTI Scholarship Fund with contributions from individuals, foundations, and corporations. If you would like further information about the Boston University Tanglewood Institute, please stop by our office on the Leonard Bernstein Campus on the Tanglewood grounds, or call (413) 637-1431 or (617) 353-3386.

Great Benefactors

In the building of his new symphony for Boston, the BSO’s founder and first benefactor, Henry Lee Higginson, knew that ticket revenues could never fully cover the costs of running a great orchestra. From 1881 to 1918 Higginson covered the orchestra’s annual deficits with personal contributions that exceeded $1 million. The Boston Symphony Orchestra now honors each of the following gener- ous donors whose cumulative giving to the BSO is $1 million or more with the designation of Great Benefactor.
