Boston Symphony Orchestra Concert Programs, Summer, 1994

/f^^sMvU- w$Wm&w&:mm^mmmB ifi Welcome This evening the Boston Symphony Orchestra celebrates at one time both the reali- zation of a dream and the well-deserved recognition of two musicians who discovered their professional lives at Tanglewood and became mentors and models for thousands of young artists who over the decades since have made the world of music their own. With the opening of Seiji Ozawa Hall and the new Leonard Bernstein Campus, head- quarters of the Tanglewood Music Center, the decades before us hold promise of excit- ing possibilities. The need for these new facilities became manifest more than ten years ago, as a con- sequence of the irreversible erosion in the condition of the old Theatre-Concert Hall. Their creation became possible on December 31, 1986, with the agreement of Mr. and Mrs. Mason Harding to sell to the Boston Symphony the Highwood estate. Leader- ship givers Norio Ohga, Jane and Jack Fitzpatrick, the Kresge Foundation, Sony Corporation of America, Liz and George Krupp,< and the Florence Gould Foundation were joined by hundreds of other generous donors whose names are listed in the com- memorative book we have published today, entitled "Seiji Ozawa Hall: A Room for Music. " Mr. Ohga, a leading figure in the business world as GEO of Sony Corpora- tion, is also a deeply committed musician. Given the privilege of naming the new hall, he chose to name it for his countryman Seiji Ozawa as the culmination of Mr. Ozawa's 20th Anniversary Year as Music Director of the BSO and in tribute to his important influence on music throughout the world in his thirty-four-year association with the Tanglewood Music Center. Architect William Rawn Associates, acoustician Lawrence Kirkegaard, and an out- standing team of consultants and artisans have given us a hall of great beauty, simplic- ity, and versatility. Seiji Ozawa Hall will be the site of orchestra and choral concerts,\ chamber music performances, solo recitals, and many other activities including record- ings. With scheduling foresight, our design and building committees helped to make it possible for construction to be accomplished on time and within the approved budget. The new campus and ancillary structures follow a thoughtful master plan conceived by William Porter and Catherine Verhulst of the firm of Carr, Lynch, Hack and Sandell. Their goal, and ours, was to provide for the future of Tanglewood without losing the magical atmosphere that has meant so much to generations of musicians and music lovers,. We hope you will agree that that goal has been achieved. With deep gratitude we direct your attention to the listings in "A Room for Music" of donors, designers, and workers who have collaborated so successfully on the reali- zation of Seiji Ozawa Hall. Tonight's concert is the culmination of a week of rehearsals and special events honoring all of these participants. NEC, the longtime and generous sponsor of the BSO's concert tours, has underwritten this special opening week for the 1994 Tanglewood season. We offer thanks as well to all of the performing artists who are contributing their services for this concert, to John Williams—another star in the Tanglewood firma- ment—for creating his new cello concerto for this event, and to all those whose pres- ence in the audience signifies their devotion to the continual renewal of/the Tangle- wood ideal. » /e<rvic- George H.
