Britten and his stage director, Eric Crozier, traveled from England to oversee the production. Leonard Bernstein conducted the orchestra of the Berkshire Music Center (now the Tanglewood Music Center) and the vocalists were chosen from members of the Music Center's opera department. In recognition of that event's fiftieth anniversary—being cele- brated here this summer by Tanglewood Music Center per- formances of Peter Grimes under Seiji Ozawa's direction—the Boston Symphony Archives, with the assistance of the Historical Preservation Com- mittee of the BSAV at Tanglewood, has mounted an exhibit including reproductions of rehearsal and production photographs as well as correspondence and newspaper clippings about the production. The exhibit is free of charge and located in the Tanglewood Visitor Center on the first floor of the Tanglewood Manor House at the rear of the lawn across from the Koussevitzky Music Shed. The photograph is of Benjamin Britten and Serge Koussevitzky at Tanglewood in 1946. Administration Kenneth Haas, Managing Director Daniel R.
