The Boston Symphony Orchestra and "The Revolution of Expression," 1911-13 "The Revolution of Expression" celebrates artistic achievements around the world between the years 1911 and 1913. To mark this celebration, the Boston Symphony Orchestra Archives has mounted an historical display in the Cohen Wing lobby. Using photographs, letters, programs, and other historical documents preserved in the Archives, the exhibit explores the BSO between the years 1911 and 1913 and the orchestra's performances of important works composed during those years. In the photograph above, Pierre Monteux, music director of the BSO from 1919 to 1924, is shown with the score for Igor Stravinsky's Le Sacre du printemps (The Rite of Spring). Monteux conducted the first performance of the ballet production by Diaghilev's Ballet Russe at the Theatre des Champs-Elysees in Paris on May 29, 1913. right asset manager could well be your most important asset.
