After forty-one consecutive summers, our retail store has closed. Please visit our website: www.berkshirerecordoutlet.com Tanglewood The Tanglewood Festival On August 13, 15, and 16, 1936, the Boston Symphony Orchestra gave its fiRst concerts in the BeRkshiRe Hills of westeRn Massachusetts; music diRectoR SeRge Koussevitzky 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.

Su repertorio en gira abarca desde la música clásica hasta la contemporánea, con especial énfasis en las grandes obras sinfónicas de los períodos romántico y romántico tardío. Su alto nivel artístico y reconocimiento internacional han atraído a muchos de los más importantes directores y solistas a colaborar con la orquesta. Desde su fundación la han dirigido Abbado, Afkham, Blomstedt, Boulez, Chung, Sir C. Davis, Eötvös, Eschenbach, Fischer, Gatti, Haitink, Järvi, Jansons, Jordan, Jurowski, Metzmacher, Nagano, Neumann, Nott, Ozawa, Pappano, Viotti y Welser-Möst.
