The Marathon is of course one of the BSO's primary fundraising efforts, and it also serves as one of the most exciting and direct ways for volunteers to become involved with the orchestra. Planning for this year's Marathon began virtually as soon as last year's ended, and the range of this year's nearly 300 premiums is extraordinary: BSO "exclusives" highlighting the orchestra's international reputation with an "around-the- world" theme focusing on major cities to which the BSO has toured; premiums offered by orchestra members and staff and ranging from homebaked bread to evening-length recitals,- gift certificates from restaurants and items from retail stores; tickets for concert, theater, and sports events,- and nearly 25 premiums from the Berkshires, including weekend or overnight stays. This year's Marathon catalog, underwritten by New England Telephone, will be available in mid-March. WCVB-TV-Channel 5 will once again make available two-and-a-half hours of prime time for the Marathon concert broadcast on Sunday evening, 18 April. In addition to all of this, works by more than 75 artists in all media— including sculpture, photography, etchings, and paintings—have been donated for the Marathon Fine Arts Show, which will open in Symphony Hall on Monday evening, 5 April. A "Preview Party" for the Fine Arts Show will be held in the Hatch Room on Monday, 5 April from 5 to 8 p.m. There is no admission charge; refreshments donated by Concord Caterers will be served, and music will be provided by New England Conservatory musicians. If you would like to receive an invitation to the "Preview Party" please phone the Marathon Office at 266-1492, ext. 230. 'Presidents at Pops' A very special night at Pops, and a first for the BSO, is being planned by a committee of business leaders, BSO Trustees, and Overseers. Designed to solidify and broaden the relationship between the BSO and the business community, it will make possible corporate support of the BSO and, at the same time, the establishment of new business contacts, the honoring of employees and spouses, or the conclusion of a company business meeting with a pleasant evening. This "Presidents at Pops" Concert will be held on 15 June 1982 with an outstanding program and buffet supper. Tickets will be sold as a "package" to include two adjoining Pops floor tables of five seats each and ten balcony seats. In addition there will be a Presidents Dinner, an elegant and fun evening at Symphony Hall on 10 May 1982 for 100 Presidents of supporting companies who will be guests of the BSO. "Presidents at Pops" already has more than seventy businesses in the greater Boston area committed to attend. For further information on this and other aspects of the Boston Symphony's Business Leadership Program, please contact Frank Pemberton in the BSO's Development Office at (617) 266-1492. BSO/WCRB Musical Marathon '82: Musical Premiums The dedicated volunteers who contribute each year to the creative planning, efficient organization, and talented staffing of the BSO/WCRB Musical Marathon are augmented annually by another category of special helpers: orchestra members and BSOrelated musicians who donate their artistry in the form of recital premiums. Looking through the twenty-page Marathon Catalog, to be mailed in mid-March, you will discover that your pledge of support to the BSO can bring you the gift of music. For example, BSO trombonist Gordon Hallberg offers a duo-recital with violinist Priscilla Hallberg of the Pops Esplanade Orchestra, including violin showpieces, music for trombone, and even a few rare duos for the two together. Burton Fine, BSO principal violist, offers a recital by the Famous Fine Family and Friends, to include harp, viola, and several surprise addi- tions. Luise Vosgerchian, particularly familiar to our Stage Door Lecture audiences, offers either a solo piano recital or a chamber concert of Mozart piano quartets. And the Empire Brass Quintet is offering Wi hours of chamber music—for which half the premium pledge will provide a talented young musician a Fellowship to the Berkshire Music Center! Other instrumentalists are donating to the Marathon in non-musical ways: BSO principal trumpet Charles Schlueter, for example, will cook and serve a Chinese dinner for four. Last year, BSO members themselves raised more than $22,000 by donating their talents. Their contributions to the Marathon are essential, and their recital premiums and other donations are among the most invaluable gifts offered to our supporters.

  • PROGRAM NOTES Gustav Mahler Symphony No. 1 in D Major
    PROGRAM NOTES by Phillip Huscher Gustav Mahler Born July 7, 1860, Kalischt, Bohemia. Died May 18, 1911, Vienna, Austria. Symphony No. 1 in D Major Mahler did most of the work on his First Symphony in February and March of 1888, incorporating music that had been written much earlier. He revised the score on several occasions. The first performance was given on November 20, 1889, in Budapest, with the composer conducting. The score calls for four flutes and three piccolos, four oboes and english horn, four clarinets, two E-flat clarinets and bass clarinet, three bassoons and contrabassoon, seven horns, four trumpets, three trombones and tuba, timpani, bass drum, cymbals, triangle, tam-tam, harp, and strings. Performance time is approximately fifty-seven minutes. The Chicago Symphony Orchestra's first subscription concert performances of Mahler's First Symphony were given at Orchestra Hall on November 6 and 7, 1914, with Frederick Stock conducting. Our most recent subscription concert performances were given on April 5, 6, 7, and 10, 2007, with Gustavo Dudamel conducting. The Orchestra first performed this symphony at the Ravinia Festival on July 19, 1949, with William Steinberg conducting, and most recently on June 24, 2005, with James Conlon conducting. When Alma Schindler first met Gustav Mahler, whom she later married, she could only remember how much she had disliked his First Symphony. She wasn't alone. The history of this symphony, even into relatively recent times, is one of misunderstanding and rejection. The first performance, in Budapest in 1889, was greeted with indifference, bewilderment, and, in the words of the local critic, "a small, but, for all that, audible element of opposition." Mahler seldom understood the animosity his music aroused.

He has been called “the Leonard Bernstein of the piano” (Chicago Tribune); "Jeffrey Siegel has everything: massive technique, musical sensitivity and character, wide tonal resources, immense reserves of power, and the ability to communicate" (Los Angeles Times). In presenting these “concerts with lively commentary” Mr. Siegel offers comments on the work, the composer, even the times in which the work was composed and then gives a virtuosic performance of a piano masterpiece. A lively Q&A concludes the concert. His presentations enrich the listening experience for the avid music lover as well as provide an inviting, instantly accessible introduction to great music for those new to classical music. "Siegel's programs strengthen the fragile bonds of communication between composer and listener and are as welcome as they are rare." (Chicago Tribune). For his concert on Saturday, August 24, Mr. Siegel will perform MOZART AND HAYDN – HUMOR AND HEARTACHE, an evening of irresistible charm and wit – and deep anguish and sadness. Haydn’s exuberant “Gypsy Rondo” and melancholy “F Minor Variations,” Mozart’s passionate “A Minor Sonata.” The inaugural Keyboard Conversations® With Jeffrey Siegel commences on Saturday, August 24 at 7:30 pm.

  • A Collection of Stan Ruttenberg's Reviews of Mahler Recordings From
    A collection of Stan Ruttenberg’s Reviews of Mahler Recordings from the Archives Of the Colorado MahlerFest (Symphonies 3 through 7 and Kindertotenlieder) Colorado MahlerFest XIII Recordings of the Mahler Third Symphony Of the fifty recordings listed in Peter Fülöp’s monumental discography (up to 1955, and many more have been added since then), I review here fifteen at my disposal, leaving out two by Boulez and one by Scherchen as not as worthy as the others. All of these fifteen are recommendable, all with fine points, all with some or more weaknesses. I cannot rank them in any numerical order, but I can say that there are four which I would rather hear more than the others — my desert island choices. I am glad to have the others for their own particular merits. Getting ready for MFest XIII we discovered that the matter of score versions and parts is complex. I use the Dover score, no date but attributed to Universal Edition; my guess this is an early version. The Kalmus edition is copied from who knows which published version. Then there is the “Critical Edition,” prepared by the Mahler Gesellschaft, Vienna. I can find two major discrepancies between the Dover/Universal and the Critical (I) the lack of horns at RN25-5, doubling the string riff and (ii) only two harp glissandi at the middle of RN28, whereas the Critical has three. Our first horn found another. Both the Dover and Critical have the horn doublings, written ff at RN 67, but only a few conductors observe them.

  • London Philharmonic Orchestra Announces Karina Canellakis As Principal Guest Conductor from 2020/21 Season
    LONDON PHILHARMONIC ORCHESTRA ANNOUNCES KARINA CANELLAKIS AS PRINCIPAL GUEST CONDUCTOR FROM 2020/21 SEASON The London Philharmonic Orchestra today announces the appointment of American conductor Karina Canellakis as its new Principal Guest Conductor from September 2020. One of the most dynamic and exciting conductors of our time, Karina Canellakis made an immediate impact on the players of the LPO when she made her debut with them in October 2018 in a concert of Sibelius, Dvořák and Bartók at the Royal Festival Hall. Currently Chief Conductor of the Netherlands Radio Philharmonic and Principal Guest Conductor of the Rundfunk Sinfonieorchester Berlin, Canellakis’s international reputation has quickly grown since winning the Sir Georg Solti Conducting Award in 2016. Canellakis began her career as a violinist, graduating from the Curtis Institute of Music, performing frequently as soloist and chamber musician, and playing for two years in the Berlin Philharmonic as a member of their Orchester-Akademie.
