Boston Symphony Orchestra Concert Programs, Summer, 1969 BOSTON POPS FESTIVAL ORCHESTRA ARTHUR FIEDLER conductor S#l(« S^i^ Sunday August 31 1969 at 2.30 pm TANGLEWOOD ARTHUR FIEDLER, Conductor of the Boston Pops, has been described as 'an institution in his hometown'. Born in the Back Bay on December 17 1894, he was brought up in an atmosphere of music. His father was a violinist in the Boston Symphony Orchestra, his mother was also a musi- cian. When his family returned to their Viennese home, he went with them, and later entered the Royal Academy in Berlin. Returning to Boston at the start of the first world war, he joined the Boston Symphony at the age of twenty. Nine years later he formed a chamber orchestra, the Boston Sin- fonietta, and in 1929 launched the free concerts on the Charles River Esplanade, which remain one of Boston's chief summer attractions. In 1930 Arthur Fiedler was appointed conductor of the Boston Pops, the position he has held without interruption ever since. His recordings for RCA are famous throughout the world, and even today he is an indefatig- able traveler, guest conducting regularly on all five continents. Arthur Fiedler has left an indelible mark on the musical tastes of millions in every corner of the globe. ANTHONY PARATORE is a graduate of the School of Fine and Applied Arts at Boston University and of the Juiiiiard School of Music. His teachers have been Mario Mantini, Leo Litwin, Bela Nagy and Rosina Lhevinne. He and his brother Joseph form a duo-piano team. Anthony Paratore has appeared on many occasions with Arthur Fiedler and the Boston Pops.

    People care about Dannon because Dannon cares about yogurt. The way Dannon watches over its yogurt! The fruit has to be just so. Everything has to be 100% natural— nothing artificial. Packages even spell out the dating in plain English. And they're delivered direct to each store— so the yogurt is always in fresh, perfect condition. Is it worth going to all this trouble? All we can tell you is that Dannon is America's best-selling yogurt by far. Dannon The natural one. No artificial anything.

Response from audience and critics is favorable. • 1890 - By this time, the public customarily refers to these “popular” concerts in the shorthand “Pop” or “Pops.” • 1896 - The tradition of annual “college nights” at the Pops begins when Harvard hosts Harvard Night at the Pops. Harvard was followed by MIT in 1897, Tufts in 1901, and a host of others. • 1897 - A new march by John Philip Sousa, The Stars and Stripes Forever, is played in its orchestral version for the first time. Works by other American composers are played more frequently at the concerts, contributing to their increasing “American-ness.” The Move to Symphony Hall: 1900– 1929 • 1900 - The BSO management officially changes the name of the concerts to the “Pops,” andThe Stars and Stripes Forever regularly serves as the grand finale. • Symphony Hall, the new home of the Boston Symphony and Boston Pops, opens in October.
