Boston Symphony Orchestra Concert Programs, Season 88, 1968-1969 •""*! m f ^W' SYMPH FOUNDED HENRY LEE THURSDAY A EIGHTY-EIGHTH SEASON 1968-1969 Exquisite Sound From the palaces of ancient Egypt to the concert halls of our modern cities, the wondrous music of the harp has compelled attention from all peoples and all countries. Through this passage of time many changes have been made in the original design. The early instruments shown in drawings on the tomb of Rameses II (1292-1225 B.C.) were richly decorated but lacked the fore-pillar. Later the "Kinner" developed by the Hebrews took the form as we know it today. The pedal harp was invented about 1720 by a Bavarian named Hochbrucker and through this ingenious device it be- came possible to play in eight major and five minor scales complete. Today the harp is an important and familiar instrument providing the "Exquisite Sound" and special effects so important to modern orchestration and arrange- ment.

TICKET RESALE AND RESERVATION PLAN The ticket resale and reservation plan has now operated for the past five seasons and has proved a great success. The Trustees wish again to thank subscribers who have taken part, and to bring it once more to the atten- tion of all other subscribers and Friends. Should you find that you are unable to attend one of the concerts for which you have tickets, the Trustees hope that you will allow others, who cannot obtain tickets for this subscription series, to have the opportunity to hear the Orchestra. You can do this by telephoning Symphony Hall (266-1492), and giving your name and ticket location to the switchboard operator. Your ticket then becomes available for resale, and the income gained is used to reduce the Orchestra's deficit. Sub- scribers who release their tickets for resale will receive a copy of the program of the concert they miss, and written acknowledgment of their gift for their tax records. Those who wish to request tickets for a specific concert should tele- phone Symphony Hall and ask for 'Reservations'. Requests will be attended to in the order in which they are received, and, since the Management has learned by experience how many returned tickets to expect, no reservation will be confirmed unless the caller can be assured of a seat. Tickets ordered in this way may be bought and collected from the box office on the day of the concert two hours before the start of the program. Tickets not claimed half an hour before concert time will be released. Last season the ticket resale and reservation plan helped reduce the Orchestra's deficit by more than $21,900. 11 Those new book reviews in The Boston Globe speak volumes. The man responsible is The Globe's Arts Editor, Herbert Kenny, who has over 200 of the most knowledgeable reviewers around Boston on call. There's more to it. Maybe that's how come everybody's reading The Globe these days. 12 . Steinberg's Choice: the new records/by Michael Steinberg, music critic of The Boston Globe The symphony: alive andwell.

The higher or smaller instruments were named by the French "haulx-bois" or "hault- bois" which was transcribed by the Italians into oboe which name is now used in English, German and Italian to distinguish the smallest instrument • In a symphony orchestra, it usually gives the pitch to the other instruments • Is it time for you to take note of your insurance needs? • We welcome the opportunity to analyze your present program and offer our professional service to provide you with intelligent, complete protection.

As before, I must remind readers that preparing such a large review – especially large this time – carries the risk of incorrect catalogue numbers or purchase links, though I have tried to make the latter clearer than before. Please check before ordering. Some time ago I mentioned that trusty old Winamp, though it works with downloads in Windows 10, has not been updated for quite some time and that I had noticed occasional glitches. Recently I have been trying another free programme, MusicBee (https://getmusicbee.com/) and have found it to work well after a few initial problems. It does everything that Winamp does and adds the ability to display the artwork, if it’s included in the metadata – which isn’t always the case. An alternative would be MediaGo (http://mediago.sony.com/enu/download), actually designed to work with the high-res digital Sony Walkman, but a useful programme in itself and operating very much like MusicBee.
