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.

In 2018, recording of Symphony No.10 by Mahler and Symphony No.9 by Bruckner won the Best Recording of the 31th Music Pen Club Music Award. After studying music at the University of Cambridge, singing and flute at the Royal Northern College of Music in Manchester and conducting in London, he began his career at the opera houses in Mrankfurt and Wiesbaden where he conducted all major works of the repertoire including Wagner’s complete Ring cycle. The year 1997 marked the beginning of a special relationship with Switzerland: as principal conductor of the Lucerne Symphony Orchestra he took an active part in the inaugural period of the new KKL where he also performed with the Ensemble Intercontemporain founded by Pierre Boulez, and of which he was the music director from 2000 to 2003. His sixteen years as principal conductor of the Bamberg Symphony Orchestra from 2000 until 2016 were filled with varied and enriching experiences: he created artist-in-residence programmes, went on several international tours with the orchestra, he received a Midem Award in 2010 for his recording of Mahler’s Ninth Symphony, and he launched the Gustav Mahler Conducting Competition from which have emerged some of today’s world famous conductors such as Gustavo Dudamel and Lahav Shani.

Les hommages pleuvent de toutes parts : compositeurs, musiciens, politiciens ou simples mélomanes, aucun ne trouve assez de mots pour exprimer son désarroi face à cette perte immense. Il est vrai que, de son vivant même, Gioacchino Rossini est devenu une légende, lui qui, après avoir composé des chefs-d'œuvres immortels, dont plus de trente opéras, a décidé, dès 1830, de se retirer en n'écrivant plus que pour ses amis. Cette longue « retraite » voit naître tout de même des œuvres extrêmement célèbres telles que le Stabat Mater (1841) ou la Petite Messe Solennelle (1864). L'Italie est en deuil Verdi souhaite un hommage au maître digne de son talent, de son génie. Non pas un simple concert hommage ou des discours... Il faut une œuvre monumentale qui rappelle au monde, aux générations futures, à quel point Rossini était immense.

  • Interview with David Alan Miller
    The Classical Beat By Stephen Dankner INTERVIEW WITH MAESTRO DAVID ALAN MILLER Looking as if a few choice, slightly seedy blocks were snatched up from Greenwich Village and plunked down in Albany’s central city district, Lark Street is a fascinating, hip place. With a row of laid-back watering holes, eateries and latte dens, it was a good place to sit down for awhile with David Alan Miller, the conductor and Music Director of the Albany Symphony Orchestra over a cup of coffee. Miller is a young and energetic man, charming and likeable, irrepressible and ardent. He has the same messianic zeal that Leonard Bernstein had – a mission to convince you of his love for music – all kinds of it – and to prove to you, through the force of his high strung but always cheerful personality, that classical music is really important – it’s not just entertainment or an indulgence for an elite class of sedate listeners. No, it’s absolutely necessary. Listen to him for just a few minutes and you’ll be convinced; I have rarely encountered a more articulate spokesman for the cause. Miller has a talent for speaking off the cuff; his knowledge of music history and the full repertoire of classical music enable him to fire off facts, figures and opinions at his popular pre-concert conversations. It’s clear that audiences love him, judging by the filled seats for the talks one hour before the ASO concerts. Right about now he’s thinking seriously about next season. All orchestras have to schedule their programs at least a year in advance.

Giuseppe Verdi Messa da Requiem per soli, coro e orchestra 16 marzo 1874: “...quella Diavola di Messa, la quale finalmente è finita”. Dopo trent’anni e passa di dedizione pressoché totale al melodramma, Verdi completava un approdo alla musica sacra che oggi ci appare tutt’altro che casuale o privo di significato. Un approdo, certo, non un ritorno: troppo lontane nel tempo, ma soprattutto nello spazio mentale, le composizioni giovanili scritte a Busseto, prima che il teatro diventasse definitivamente la sua professione. Ma, a ben vedere, fra quei giorni ormai sbia- diti nella memoria e questo poderoso presente un filo sottile sottile di continuità forse c’è. La prima pietra l’aveva posta nel 1868, alla morte di Gioachino Rossini, lanciando l’idea di un Requiem collettivo in sua memo- ria, musicato una parte per ciascuno dai principali composi- tori italiani.
