Carlos and Velia Tosi have a great fondness for the Symphony. "My
mother, Luisa Ardizzoni Tosi, was an opera singer whose students sang
on the Symphony Hall stage," said Mr. Tosi. It's easy to understand
why Mr. and Mrs. Tosi chose to endow a seat in Symphony Hall in
memory of their son. Their charitable gift annuity funded the seat in
perpetuity. They both feel that this was a good investment. "It was the
easiest decision we could have made — from the heart."

TANGLEWOOD
The Tanglewood Festival
In August 1934 a group of music-loving summer residents of the Berkshires organized a
series of three outdoor concerts at Interlaken, to be given by members of the New York
Philharmonic under the direction of Henry Hadley. The venture was so successful that the
promoters incorporated the Berkshire Symphonic Festival and repeated the experiment during
the next summer.
The Festival Committee then invited Serge Koussevitzky and the Boston Symphony
Orchestra to take part in the following year's concerts. The orchestra's Trustees accepted,
and on August 13, 1936, the Boston Symphony Orchestra gave its first concerts in the
Berkshires (at Holmwood, a former Vanderbilt estate, later the Center at Foxhollow). The
series again consisted of three concerts and was given under a large tent, drawing a total of
nearly 15,000 people.
In the winter of 1936 Mrs. Gorham Brooks and Miss Mary Aspinwall Tappan offered
Tanglewood, the Tappan family estate, with its buildings and 210 acres of lawns and mead-
ows, as a gift to Koussevitzky and the orchestra. The offer was gratefully accepted, and on
August 5, 1937, the festival's largest crowd to that time assembled under a tent for the first
Tanglewood concert, an all-Beethoven program.
At the all-Wagner concert that opened the 1937 festival's second weekend, rain and
thunder twice interrupted the Rienzi Overture and necessitated the omission altogether of
the "Forest Murmurs" from Siegfried, music too delicate to be heard through the downpour.
At the intermission, Miss Gertrude Robinson Smith, one of the festival's founders, made an
appeal to raise funds for the building of a permanent structure. The appeal was broadened
by means of a printed circular handed out at the two remaining concerts, and within a short
time enough money had been raised to begin active planning for a "music pavilion."
Eliel Saarinen, the eminent architect selected by Koussevitzky, proposed an elaborate
design that went far beyond the immediate needs of the festival and, more important, went
well beyond the budget of $100,000. His second, simplified plans were still too expensive; he
finally wrote that if the Trustees insisted on remaining within their budget, they would have
"just a shed," "which any builder could accomplish without the aid of an architect." The
Trustees then turned to Stockbridge engineer Joseph Franz to make further simplifications
in Saarinen's plans in
order to lower the cost.
The building he erected
was inaugurated on the
evening of August 4,
1938, when the first
concert of that year's
festival was given, and
remains, with modifica-
tions, to this day. It has
echoed with the music
of the Boston Sym-
phony Orchestra every
After the storm of August 12, 1937, which precipitated a fundraising summer since, except
drive for the construction of the Tanglewood Shed f or j- ne war years 1942-
45, and has become almost a place of pilgrimage to millions of concertgoers. In 1959, as the
result of a collaboration between the acoustical consultant Bolt Beranek and Newman and
architect Eero Saarinen and Associates, the installation of the then-unique Edmund Hawes
Talbot Orchestra Canopy, along with other improvements, produced the Shed's present

world-famous acoustics. In 1988, on the occasion of its fiftieth anniversary, the Shed was
rededicated as "The Serge Koussevitzky Music Shed," recognizing the far-reaching vision of
the BSO's legendary music director.
In 1940, the Berkshire Music Center (now the Tanglewood Music Center) began its
operations. By 1941 the Theatre-Concert Hall, the Chamber Music Hall, and several small
studios were finished, and the festival had so expanded its activities and its reputation for
excellence that it attracted nearly 100,000 visitors.
With the Boston Symphony Orchestra's acquisition in 1986 of the Highwood estate
adjacent to Tanglewood, the stage was set for the expansion of Tanglewood's public grounds
by some 40%. A master plan developed by the Cambridge firm of Carr, Lynch, Hack and
Sandell to unite the Tanglewood and Highwood properties confirmed the feasibility of
using the newly acquired property as the site for a new concert hall to replace the outmod-
ed Theatre-Concert Hall (which was used continuously with only minor modifications
since 1941, and which with some modification has been used in recent years for the Tangle-
wood Music Center's opera productions), and for improved Tanglewood Music Center
facilities. Inaugurated on July 7, 1994, Seiji Ozawa Hall — designed by the architectural firm
William Rawn Associates of Boston in collaboration with acoustician R. Lawrence Kirke-
gaard & Associates of Downer's Grove, Illinois, and representing the first new concert facil-
ity to be constructed at Tanglewood in more than a half-century — now provides a modern
venue for TMC concerts, and for the varied recital and chamber music concerts offered by
the Boston Symphony Orchestra throughout the summer. Ozawa Hall with its attendant
buildings also serves as the focal point of the Tanglewood Music Center's Leonard Bernstein
Campus, as described below. Also at Tanglewood each summer, the Boston University
Tanglewood Institute sponsors a variety of programs that offer individual and ensemble
instruction to talented younger students, mostly of high school age.
Two "Special Focus" Exhibits at the Tanglewood Visitor Center
Celebrating Two Anniversaries at Tanglewood This Summer
Two "Special Focus" exhibits have been mounted by the BSO Archives at the Tangle-
wood Visitor Center this summer.
"John Williams and the BSO: A 25-Year Collaboration" cel-
ebrates Mr. Williams's 25-year relationship with the Boston
Symphony Orchestra. Mr. Williams was the nineteenth Con-
ductor of the Boston Pops from 1980 to 1993, then became
Laureate Conductor of the Boston Pops and Artist-in-Resi-
dence at Tanglewood. The exhibit features photographs and
other materials documenting this 25-year association, including concert activities, tours,
recordings with the Boston Pops Orchestra, and the recordings he made of the original
film scores for Schindlers List and Saving Private Ryan conducting members of the BSO
in Symphony Hall. The photo here is of Mr. Williams backstage at Carnegie Hall on the
occasion of his debut as Boston Pops Conductor, on January 22, 1980 (photograph by
Peter Schaaf).
This year's second "Special Focus" exhibit, "A Room for Music: Seiji Ozawa Hall Turns
Ten!," celebrating the hall's tenth anniversary this summer,
focuses on the building and construction of Seiji Ozawa Hall.
Featuring photographs, construction plans, and other memo-
rabilia, this exhibit explores the hall's architectural design and
the festivities that opened this award-winning venue ten
years ago on July 7, 1994. The photo, from June 22, 1993,
shows a steel truss being lifted into place by crane (photo-
graph by BSO Life Trustee Dean Freed).

NATHANIEL HAWTHORNE REVISITED
This summer marks the bicentennial of Nathaniel Hawthorne's birth on July 4, 1804. The
local influence of Nathaniel Hawthorne — the author of Tanglewood Tales — is clearly linked
to Tanglewood: all who enter Tanglewood via the Lion Gate see the replica of the "little
red cottage" where the Hawthorne family lived from May 1850 until November 1851, and
where he wrote The House of
the Seven Gables. In the dis-
-^■bbb| tance rises Monument Moun-
tain, where Hawthorne met
Herman Melville on a summer
outing in August 1850. Their
relationship inspired Melville's
literary ambitions, as reflected
in the epic scale of his master-
piece, Moby-Dick, dedicated to
Hawthorne "In Token of my
Admiration for his Genius."
Materials dating from
Nathaniel Hawthorne's stay
at the little red cottage are on
view in the Tanglewood Visitor
Center as part of the display documenting the early history of the Tappan family estate
(Tanglewood). The cottage was destroyed by fire in 1890. A replica duplicating the original
exterior was dedicated in July 1947. (The interior now provides classroom and studio space
for the Tanglewood Music Center.) The photo shows the 1947 dedication ceremony, with
Serge Koussevitzky seated second from left on the porch.
To commemorate the Hawthorne bicentennial, the Lenox Library has published Haw-
thorne Revisited, a collection of essays exploring this Berkshire literary legacy (available at
the library and in the Tanglewood shops). On Sunday morning, August 8, the meeting of
Hawthorne and Melville will be celebrated in a hike up Monument Mountain; anyone
interested should meet at 10 a.m. that day in the parking lot on Route 7 at the base of the
mountain. On Saturday, October 9, at 8 p.m., a gala celebration in Ozawa Hall sponsored
by Shakespeare & Company and hosted by Mike Wallace will feature Jane Fonda, Marisa
Tomei, and David Strathairn performing and reading from Hawthorne's works. For more
information on this event, call (413) 637-1199, ext. 113.
Today Tanglewood annually draws more than 300,000 visitors. Besides the concerts of
the Boston Symphony Orchestra, there are weekly chamber music concerts, Friday-evening
Prelude Concerts, Saturday-morning Open Rehearsals, the annual Festival of Contempo-
rary Music, and almost daily concerts by the gifted young musicians of the Tanglewood
Music Center. The Boston Pops Orchestra appears annually, and the season closes with a
weekend-long Jazz Festival. The season offers not only a vast quantity of music but also a
vast range of musical forms and styles, all of it presented with a regard for artistic excellence
that makes the festival unique.
The Tanglewood Music Center
Since its start as the Berkshire Music Center in 1940, the Tanglewood Music Center has
become one of the world's most influential centers for advanced musical study. Serge Kous-
sevitzky, the Boston Symphony Orchestra's music director from 1924 to 1949, founded the
Center with the intention of creating a premier music academy where, with the resources of
a great symphony orchestra at their disposal, young instrumentalists, vocalists, conductors,
and composers would sharpen their skills under the tutelage of Boston Symphony Orchestra
musicians and other specially invited artists.
The Music Center opened formally on July 8, 1940, with speeches and music. "If ever
there was a time to speak of music, it is now in the New World," said Koussevitzky, alluding
to the war then raging in Europe. Randall Thompson's Alleluia for unaccompanied chorus,
specially written for the ceremony, arrived less than an hour before the event began but made
such an impression that it continues to be performed at the opening ceremonies each sum-
mer. The TMC was Koussevitzky 's pride and joy for the rest of his life. He assembled an
extraordinary faculty in composition, operatic and choral activities, and instrumental perform-
ance; he himself taught the most gifted conductors.
Koussevitzky continued to develop the Tanglewood Music Center until 1950, a year
after his retirement as the BSO's music director. Charles Munch, his successor in that posi-
tion, ran the Tanglewood Music Center from 1951 through 1962, working with Leonard
Bernstein and Aaron Copland to shape the school's programs. In 1963, new BSO Music
Director Erich Leinsdorf took over the school's reins, returning to Koussevitzky 's hands-on
leadership approach while restoring a renewed emphasis on contemporary music. In 1970,
three years before his appointment as BSO music director, Seiji Ozawa became head of the
BSO's programs at Tanglewood, with Gunther Schuller leading the TMC and Leonard
Bernstein as general advisor. Leon Fleisher served as the TMC's Artistic Director from 1985
to 1997. In 1994, with the opening of Seiji Ozawa Hall, the TMC centralized its activities
on the Leonard Bernstein Campus, which also includes the Aaron Copland Library, cham-
ber music studios, administrative offices, and the Leonard Bernstein Performers Pavilion
adjacent to Ozawa Hall. In 1997, Ellen Highstein was appointed Director of the Tanglewood
Music Center, operating under the artistic supervision of Seiji Ozawa.
The Tanglewood Music Center Fellowship Program offers an intensive schedule of study
and performance for advanced musicians who have completed all or most of their formal
training. Some 150 young artists, all attending the TMC on full fellowships which under-
write the costs of tuition, room, and board, participate in a program including chamber and
orchestral music, opera and art song, and a strong emphasis on music of the 20th and 21st
centuries. This year's first TMC Orchestra concert is under the direction of Ingo Metz-
macher, who, in his first collaboration with the TMC, leads music of Dallapiccola (honoring
that composer's centennial), Schoenberg, and Berlioz. Also this summer the TMCO per-

forms under the batons of Kurt Masur, Rafael Friihbeck de Burgos, Robert Spano, and
James DePreist. In addition, Seiji Ozawa returns to the TMCO podium leading music of
Takemitsu and Verdi as part of the August 1 gala concert marking the 10th anniversary of
Seiji Ozawa Hall. Also in 2004, the Mark Morris Dance Group returns for its second an-
nual week-long collaboration with the TMC intertwining music and dance, culminating in
two joint MMDG/TMC performances of works choreographed by Mark Morris to music
of Vivaldi, Bartok and Bach. The TMC Opera Program returns this summer to the work
of Benjamin Britten, a composer historically associated with Serge Koussevitzky and the
Music Center — Britten's Shakespeare-inspired opera A Midsummer Night's Dream. Conduc-
tor Robert Spano once again directs the annual Festival of Contemporary Music, this year
featuring works of Bernard Rands (celebrating his 70th birthday year) and Elliott Carter
(marking his 95th birthday year), with works by the Finnish composers Salonen, Sallinen,
Saariaho, and Lindberg also highlighting the 2004 FCM programs. In another of the TMC's
new music programs, TMC composers will work throughout the summer with gifted young
film and video artists, creating short collaborative works to be presented during the Festival.
Ongoing TMC programs include seminars in the string quartet and piano quartet, and a
series of free concerts, the "Steinway Series" on Monday afternoons in the Chamber Music
Hall, highlighting works for solo piano and piano chamber music.
It would be impossible to list all of the distinguished musicians who have studied at the
Tanglewood Music Center. According to recent estimates, 20% of the members of American
symphony orchestras, and 30% of all first-chair players, studied at the TMC. Besides Seiji
Ozawa, prominent alumni of the Tanglewood Music Center include Claudio Abbado, Luciano
Berio, the late Leonard Bernstein, David Del Tredici, Christoph von Dohnanyi, the late
Jacob Druckman, Lukas Foss, John Harbison, Gilbert Kalish (who headed the TMC fac-
ulty for many years), Oliver Knussen, Lorin Maazel, Wynton Marsalis, Zubin Mehta,
Sherrill Milnes, Leontyne Price, Ned Rorem, Sanford Sylvan, Cheryl Studer, Michael
Tilson Thomas, Dawn Upshaw, Shirley Verrett, and David Zinman.
Today, alumni of the Tanglewood Music Center play a vital role in the musical life of the
nation. Tanglewood and the Tanglewood Music Center, projects with which Serge Kousse-
vitzky was involved until his death, have become a fitting shrine to his memory, a living
embodiment of the vital, humanistic tradition that was his legacy. At the same time, the
Tanglewood Music Center maintains its commitment to the future as one of the world's
most important training grounds for the composers, conductors, instrumentalists, and vocal-
ists of tomorrow.

SEIJIOZAWAHALL
Just (Some of) the Facts
Seiji Ozawa Hall's Florence Gould Auditorium is an 1,180-seat enclosed concert space
designed to accommodate a variety of performance, rehearsal, and recording activities at
Tanglewood, the BSO's summer home. Folding doors at the west end of the building permit
the Hall to open directly onto a lawn which provides space for at least 2,000 additional lis-
teners. With the doors closed, the Hall is also designed to serve as a recording facility.
The Leonard Bernstein Performers Pavilion adjacent to the main structure contains back-
of-house facilities encompassing a conductor's suite, dressing rooms, instrument storage
space, practice rooms, and a recording booth, all organized around a cloister-like court-
yard that can serve as a gathering place for the Tanglewood Music Center Fellows.

Reflections on Ozawa Hall — Ten Years Later
by William Rawn, FAIA
Seiji Ozawa Hall opened on July 7, 1994. William Rawn Associates, Architects, Inc., of Bos-
ton designed the building working closely with Larry Kirkegaard, Acoustician, and Theatre
Projects Consultants, Inc.. The national American Institute of Architects (AIA) awarded Seiji
Ozawa Hall an Honor Award for Architecture in 1995 and an Honor Award for Interiors in
2000, and the building was on the cover of Architecture" magazine in December 1994.
Here, William Rawn discusses some of the ideas influencing the design and reflects on the
ten years since the opening of Seiji Ozawa Hall in 1994.
Without question, the ten years since the opening of Ozawa Hall have been marked by
the special loyalty of concertgoers who attend so many performances in the Hall and by
the intensity and excellence of the performers — world-class musicians and Tanglewood
Music Center students — who have played there. For me, personally, the ten years has
been marked by the many generous comments made by friends and strangers alike.
Maybe there is an element of good New England manners here. (Who would strongly
criticize a building directly to its architect?) But the enthusiastic — and spontaneous —
response to the building has been a highlight of my professional career over the past
decade.
For an architect, each project is a hands-on learning experience. Only after develop-
ing a design, following it through working drawings, and then overseeing the construc-
tion can an architect begin to apply that learning to the next project. The act of building
is as critical as is the act of designing. This explains why architects tend to do their best
work in their sixties and seventies, the culmination of a career of constant learning.
Frank Lloyd Wright applied that learning to great buildings deep into his eighties, and
Frank Gehry is now at the top if his game well into his seventies — the opposite of
dancers and professional athletes.
The opportunity to design a building like Ozawa Hall so early in my architectural
career has had a profound impact on our practice. My life and the lives of my colleagues
have been changed by that experience. I know, too, that the buildings we are designing
now and in the future reflect the learning gained in the building of Ozawa Hall. For
this, I am deeply indebted to Tanglewood.
While I had never designed a concert hall when I began work at Tanglewood, to
compensate for that seeming inexperience, early in the project I spent three weeks in
Europe studying the spatial qualities of a dozen halls. The acoustics of a hall were obvi-
ously most important, and we were confident in our bringing Larry Kirkegaard to the
team as acoustician. But it seemed to me that the intimacy and intensity of a concert
experience were human qualities critical to the overall success of a hall. While in
Europe, I photographed; I measured; I attended concerts to get the "feel" of each hall
I visited. Larry Kirkegaard joined me at two of his favorite halls, the Concertgebouw in
Amsterdam and the Musikvereinssaal in Vienna, not only to show me first-hand the
reasons for their acoustic excellence, but also to share with me his subjective feelings for
both halls. Richard Pilbrow (Theatre Projects Consultants, Inc.) pushed us to maintain
intimacy by careful organizing of the seating, and his advice informed that trip.
What, then, explains the enthusiastic reaction of so many people to the Hall. I sus-
pect three things:
1. The acoustics are wonderful, if I can say so myself. Credit for that goes to Larry
Kirkegaard. From opening night (and Edward Rothstein's next day article in The
New York Times) to the recent book, Concert Halls and Opera Houses by Leo

Beranek, the acoustic accolades have been consistent. Beranek recently devel-
oped a rating system (based on interviews with conductors and performers)
which showed Ozawa Hall to be thirteenth-best in the world, fourth-best hall
in the United States, and one of the four best halls built in the last fifty years.
Larry Kirkegaard's vision and brilliance is palpable. His natural love of being the
teacher, his understanding of the necessity of teamwork between acoustician and
architect, were fundamental to the success of the building. Seiji Ozawa remarked
ten years ago that he thought the Hall sounded as good with the big barn doors
open as with the doors closed. High praise indeed for Larry's inventive solution
to a seemingly insoluble acoustic problem.
2. The Hall feels to be part of the land of the Stockbridge Bowl. Is it the curved
roof referencing the soft hills of the Berkshires? Is it the way the Hall nestles
into the landscape of the Highwood Estate, choosing not to be placed at the
promontory brow of the hill but choosing a site down the Hill? Of course,
buildings do not make such choices. Architects do. Bill Porter was Master Plan-
ner for the site and he strongly supported our decision to place the Hall in this
deferential position. We pointed out that all the music buildings at Tanglewood
(the Shed, the Theatre, and now Ozawa Hall) were placed well back from the
brow of the Hill. They defer to Tappan House and Highwood Manor House,
indeed letting them establish themselves as the Estate Houses on an estate open
to 15,000 people. The music buildings literally became the working "barns"
("sheds") of the estate.
3. The interior of the Hall, of course, gets much mention. In a way I always love it
when people — strangers and friends alike — engage me in a conversation about
the architectural intentions of the interior. A variety of theories about precedents
and sources abound. While wanting to acknowledge a range of sources for ideas
natural to any architect's work, nonetheless one idea has been constant from the
beginning. My sense of Tanglewood has always focused on the essential demo-
cratic nature of the place: that sense that it is open and accessible to anyone and
everyone. I always say: most of the week, whether it is a CEO of a Fortune 500
Company or a family visiting from 2000 miles away, everyone is welcome to
wander the "estate" and perhaps hear master classes taught by the world's lead-
ing musicians.
We wanted Ozawa Hall to share in that democratic spirit. My model was as
much a New England Meeting House as any other architectural form: the clear
and simple rectangular room, relatively unadorned, warm and welcoming, cap-
turing a democratic spirit. Attending a wedding in Strafford, Vermont, Meeting
House five years ago, I felt very strongly that I was in a space that became a
subliminal source of our architectural ideas for Ozawa Hall. Obviously there
are differences: the teak and Douglas fir; the joinery; the wood patterns which
combine the gridded formality of the balcony fronts with the informality of the
summer breezes wafting through those grilles; the fact that from almost any seat
you can see outside, not only to the sky but to the green of trees and lawn. All
these elements modulate the strict interpretation of Ozawa Hall as Meeting
House. But the spirit remains. To see how audience and performers react to the
Hall, reaffirms this special democratic — and perhaps very American — spirit of
the place.
What I love today is what has happened in the Hall and how people have used the
Hall in ways almost unimaginable. The way people congregate in the arcades at inter-
mission, catching up with their friends, gazing quietly at the landscape; the way the
Tanglewood Music Center (TMC) concerts have become so popular with visitors and
cognoscenti alike (remember how we worried about small audiences for TMC recitals
and how we organized the space so that it could feel "full" even with a small audience);
how the Hall accommodates the inventions of the Contemporary Music Festival, or,
more recently, the never-imagined inventions of a Mark Morris dance performance.
This sense of a living and growing Hall, always expanding its vision, always surprising,
is special.
There is a saying in the law that "hard cases can make bad law." In a similar but
more positive vein, the experience at Ozawa Hall has proved to me that a supportive
and collaborative client makes great buildings. And here all the credit goes to the BSO
organization. George Kidder, then President, asked Dean Freed (the BSO Trustee who
chaired the BSO's Building and Grounds Committee at that time; now a BSO Life
Trustee), the late BSO Overseer Haskell Gordon, and Dan Gustin (at that time the
BSO's Manager of Tanglewood and BSO Assistant Managing Director) to be the three-
person committee directing me, my colleagues Alan Joslin and Clifford Gayley, and
John Fish of Suffolk Construction Company. In addition, Kidder asked Robert Campbell
to be architectural adviser to that committee. The four-member BSO group (which
sadly was reduced to three by Haskell's untimely death halfway through the project)
brought a spirit of teamwork that inspired us, pushed us, nurtured us. That collaborative
spirit — call it the architectural equivalent of musical ensemble — is celebrated by this
building.
To the BSO, to all the musicians who have performed there, and to the audiences
who have supported the Hall for the past ten years, I offer my deepest thanks.
In the past decade, William Rawn's architectural work with concert halls and theaters has
expanded considerably. Both the Sorenson Theater at Babson College and the Koka Booth
Amphitheatre in Cary, North Carolina, won design awards from the United States Institute for
Theatre Technology. The Strathmore Concert Hall in Bethesda, MD (a 2,000-seat enclosed
concert hall serving as the second home for the Baltimore Symphony Orchestra) and the Wil-
liams College Class of '62 Center for Theatre and Dance (with three separate theater venues)
will open in the spring of 2005. William Rawn Associates, Architects, also has projects on a
number of important college and university campuses nationwide, as well as three large-scale
public projects under design — the United States Courthouse, Cedar Rapids, IA; the Cambridge
(MA) Public Library, and the Green Music Center at Sonoma State University, CA.

Creating a "New" Tanglewood
by Robert Campbell
Robert Campbell, architectural critic for The Boston Globe, was Architectural Advisor to the
BSO's Design Committee for the building ofSeiji Ozawa Hall. He originally wrote this essay
for the souvenir book A Room For Music" produced in conjunction with the Hall's opening
in 1994.
It began with the land. In December 1986 the size of Tanglewood suddenly and unex-
pectedly doubled, with the acquisition, from the Mason Harding family, of the High-
wood estate next door.
You couldn't walk out onto this new piece of land without noticing a long, gentle
slope of field, back behind the house, that terminated in a natural backdrop of pines.
You couldn't help feeling that Providence must have created that slope in the hope that
someone, some day, would sit there listening to music, as it drifted out from somewhere
among the pines. Even before Highwood became available, the decision had already
been made to build a new concert hall at Tanglewood. The old Theatre-Concert Hall,
across the lawn from the Koussevitzky Music Shed, was becoming derelict and inade-
quate. A preliminary design for a new concert hall was actually created by another
architect. When Highwood became available all this work came to a screeching halt.
The BSO realized, at once, that it needed professional help to assess the potential of the
new property. It hired the nationally known Cambridge firm of Carr, Lynch, Hack 6c
Sandell as site planners. Bill Porter and Catherine Verhulst of that office took charge of
the job. They quickly confirmed everyone's early intuition: the grassy slope at Highwood
was the right place for the new concert hall.
Porter and Verhulst pointed out other things, too. They noticed that a single unbro-
ken ridge of lawn extended from the old Tanglewood property right through the new
estate, all of it with a view of the Stockbridge Bowl to the south. They called this ridge
the "performance plateau" and conceived it as a means of uniting the old campus with
the new. They noticed that if the new concert hall were placed down the slope from this
plateau, it would stand in the same relation to Highwood Manor House as the Shed
does to the Tanglewood Manor House. There would be a sort of visual rhyme: Tangle-
wood Manor and its Shed, Highwood Manor and its concert hall. The new estate would
immediately feel like Tanglewood.
Porter and Verhulst did many other things. They surveyed the property and declared
most of it a protected wedand. With what remained, besides the site for the concert hall,
they created a new string of roads and parking lots, carefully nesded among the existing
woodlands, to relieve pressure on the old traffic patterns. They renovated the former
carriage barn into offices and studios for some of Tanglewood's staff and faculty. They
removed the Box Lot parking from the performance plateau and raised the grade of this
part of the lawn by several feet, using material excavated for the new concert hall, in
order to improve views into the shed. They developed a landscape plan for all of Tangle-
wood, new and old. And they found locations for, and then designed, new gates, rest
rooms, utilities, practice studios, snack booths, ticket booths, paths, plantings, a new gift
shop, a new lawn cafe, and much else that was needed to transform the Highwood es-
tate into a true working part of Tanglewood.
But the centerpiece of the new Tanglewood would be, of course, the new concert
hall. Because of the new site, it was decided to make a fresh start in planning for this
facility. Several nationally known architects were interviewed before the selection of a
relative newcomer, William Rawn of Boston, as the designer. Rawn impressed the selec-
tion committee by the time and care he devoted to visiting and studying Tanglewood,
11
and especially by the verbal eloquence with which he was able to invoke Tanglewood's
essential magic.
Endless debates ensued. How many seats should the new hall have? Twelve hundred,
give or take, it was finally decided. Where, precisely, should it stand? Rawn persuaded
everyone it should be pushed far enough up the slope so as not to feel remote. Should
it, like its predecessor, serve for both opera and concerts? No, it was determined: Now
that it would be possible to preserve the old Theatre-Concert Hall, it made better sense
to convert the older building for opera in the future.
But the critical issue of the debate was over a different issue. Should the new hall be
suitable for recording purposes? If so, it would have to be a much heavier, much more
solid acoustic shell than anything else at Tanglewood. It would be a new and different
kind of building altogether, and a costlier one too. The decision eventually fell in favor
of recording, and the building began, in Rawn's office, to assume its present shape.
It was exciting to watch the hall as it evolved over time in a long series of discussions,
drawings, and models. Two BSO Board members, Dean Freed and the late Haskell
Gordon, participated in virtually every meeting and contributed a great deal to the
shaping of the hall. So did the BSO's Tanglewood Manager Dan Gustin and Tangle-
wood Music Center Administrator Richard Ortner, among many others. Rawn traveled
through Europe to look at famous halls. He returned with a determination to create not
an auditorium, in which the performers on the stage are quite separate from the audi-
ence, but rather a more congenial, more sociable space in which the performers and the
audience would gather together as if in a large room. The audience would sit on three
sides, and up on balconies too, so that its members could look across at one another,
enjoying the ritual pleasure of assembling. They would sit in informal chairs, as if on a
Shaker porch. A big opening at the rear would open to the sloping lawn, in the Tangle-
wood tradition, where hundreds could sit and see and hear. Above this opening, there
would be a musician's gallery, a place for a fanfare before the performance.
Too often, when an architect and an acoustician collaborate, one or the other domi-
nates. In the case of Seiji Ozawa Hall something very different occurred. Rawn and his

acoustician, Lawrence Kirkegaard — himself trained as an architect — developed a give-
and-take working relationship in which each seemed to be trying to optimize the other's
goals. The building acquired the massive walls and ceiling that Kirkegaard needed to
reflect the bass notes. But it also acquired a remarkable sense of light and air. Glass-
block windows served to contain the sound, while simultaneously permitting views out
to the sky. Broken-up surfaces of wall and ceiling, necessary for blending and dispersing
the sound, took the form of handsome architectural coffers, bays, and corrugations.
As it finally took form, and as it now has been built, Seiji Ozawa Hall is a building
with an exterior that is a reddish blend of several shades of brick. The brick isn't the
usual machine-cut type but a more irregular, richly textured variety made by casting
each brick separately. It is trimmed in red sandstone imported from India, with Alaskan
yellow cedar at the exterior galleries. The round vaulted roof is lead-coated copper. The
overall impression is of a building that looks both durable and purposeful, commanding
its site without looking in any way grand. It is angled slightly toward the Highwood
manor house — an angle, as it happens, that is identical with that of the Shed. Connected
with it, at the rear, is a smaller pavilion for the musicians, framed and surfaced in wood,
where dressing and practice rooms ring four sides of an interior courtyard with a con-
tinuous porch for informal socializing. The musicians' pavilion is like a tugboat pushing
the liner of Ozawa Hall. Together, the two buildings share a modest entry court.
Indoors, Seiji Ozawa Hall is made of stucco walls painted a warm off-white. Two
tiers of balcony line three sides, faced with railings in teak. The ceiling is of pre-cast
concrete coffers whose natural color is the same as that of the walls. Above the ceiling,
beneath the copper vault, is the mechanical room, with fans for air changes and modest
air-conditioning of the stage and its instruments. On the stage, the musicians sit on a
stepped terrace floor, the elements of which can be telescoped back beneath one another
when a flat floor is needed. The terrace is Kirkegaard's invention and allows the orches-
tra members to be easily visible to one another and to the audience.
Behind the stage is a balcony for choruses. If desired, the hall can be reversed for
intimate performances, in which case this balcony becomes seating for a small audience,
and the musician performs against a temporary movable backdrop. Invisible behind all
this, within the walls and above the ceiling, is the structural skeleton of steel columns,
beams, and trusses.
Seen purely as architecture, Ozawa Hall is hard to categorize simply. Architect Rawn
has little patience with passing fads or styles, but he does possess a strong urge to accom-
modate new buildings within the traditions of the past. Ozawa Hall's interior is a tradi-
tional shoebox shape, like Symphony Hall in Boston. Details like the coffered ceiling
and gridded balcony rails can't exactly be called ornamental, but they do embody a
memory, simplified as befits a country setting, of the gilded and sculptured interiors of
the past. Outdoors, the wood galleries recall the long lazy porches of resorts and summer
camps, and the big brick shape suggests the great rural mills of New England. Taken as
a whole, Seiji Ozawa Hall reminds this writer of only one other building, a personal
favorite, the tiny but monumental church of Santa Maria dei Miracoli in Venice, another
powerful, round-vaulted, self-confident shape.
Summer has come to Tanglewood now. The leaves are on the trees and the breeze
drifts cool off the Stockbridge Bowl. The unsuspecting visitor will arrive, unaware that
the beloved Tanglewood is, suddenly, twice as big, twice as wonderful. It will be as if
you sat down to a small-screen black and white movie, only to watch it explode into
wide-screen color. On that new and larger screen, Seiji Ozawa Hall takes its place as the
central figure in the newest act of the ever-unfolding drama that is Tanglewood.

SEIJI OZAWA HALL, 1994-2003
A Concise Performance History of the BSO's Recital Series
In addition to the concerts presented each summer by the Tanglewood Music Center,
the Boston University Tanglewood Institute, and the Boston Symphony Chamber
Players, as well as the annual Festival of Contemporary Music, and the regular Friday-
night Prelude Concerts performed by members of the BSO, frequent guest artists, and
the Tanglewood Festival Chorus, the following recitalists and ensembles have been fea-
tured in the BSO's weeknight (and occasional Sunday- night) recital series in Florence
Gould Auditorium during Ozawa Hall's first ten years.
Seiji Ozawa Hall also serves as the primary venue for Tanglewood's annual Jazz
Festival each Labor Day Weekend (see page 21); as a recording venue; and as a venue
for such important Berkshire community functions as graduation ceremonies, fund-
raising events, and concerts by local ensembles.

The World is Waiting
What persuades a young person to accept
her own greatness? What allows her to
see the connection between the fire in
her heart and her destiny to change a small cor-
ner of the world or the world itself? What con-
vinces a girl that the world needs her discover-
ies, her solutions, her creations?
The torch of leadership will be passed to a new
generation. That is a certainty. But is it also a
certainty that the new generation will be pre-
pared to lead? Yes, if the adults involved with
young people make it their priority.
Nurturing girls' potential is serious business.
Our job as parents, teachers, mentors, and
friends is to let a girl know what great promise
she has. A girl will recognize that promise if
she knows we have seen it too.
Before there can be leadership, there must be
the idea of leadership. That is, before a young
person can face her future with solid confi-
dence, she must have a clear idea of her power
to achieve and her ability to lead. The time for
a girl to catch a glimpse of the powerful person
she is to become is between the ages of 14 and
18. It is then that she can envision herself
twenty feet tall and think the unthinkable about
what she can accomplish.
That is where we begin. But leadership is also
about passion, about caring deeply, and, then,
about creating a vision for change in the
mind's eye. What matters to adolescents
today? Sit with a girl long enough and she'll tell
you that she worries about the environment,
about violence in the world, about children
without hope. Her conscience is stirred. Sit
with her a little longer and she will start to talk
about her plans. The groundwork for a new
approach is forming.
It is when this adolescent energy is bursting
forth that adults can help to give it shape. The
high school years are about more than acquir-
ing knowledge, as important as that is. It is in
these formative years, when a girl begins to
clarify her ethical positions, that we must be
there to encourage her to connect her vision of
how to make the world better with her ability to
accomplish the task.
Leadership takes practice also. It's all about a
girl's working up the nerve to speak out in a
meeting, to edit the school paper, to run for
class office, or to find an elegant solution to a
perplexing problem. Confidence grows cumu-
latively. In an enlightened community a girl has
the chance to be in charge and the encourage-
ment to try.
This country, this world, needs the strength,
compassion, and brains of all its young people.
But participation in democracy begins with
young people knowing that they count. It is
hard to be apathetic when the large idea that
fills your mind and soul is that you can, must,
and will make a difference.
In Nine and Counting: The Women of the Senate,
author Catherine Whitney writes, "Each of the
women senators understands that at any given
moment, she could have a substantial impact
on someone's life." Think how we would feel
about the future of this society if we thought
that every young person was prepared and
committed to making a "substantial impact."
Then, look at your daughter, granddaughter,
niece, the neighbor's girl. See in her the cure
we haven't discovered, the peace treaty not yet
written, the great art not yet created. Now, tell
her that the world needs what only she can
offer. Tell her that the world is waiting for her.

MARK MORRIS
Mark Morris was born on August 29, 1956, in Seattle, Washington, where
he studied as a young man with Verla Flowers and Perry Brunson. In the
early years of his career, he performed with Lar Lubovitch, Hannah Kahn,
Laura Dean, Eliot Feld, and the Koleda Balkan Dance Ensemble. He
formed the Mark Morris Dance Group in 1980, and has since created over
100 works for the company. From 1988-1991 he was Director of Dance at
the Theatre Royal de la Monnaie in Brussels, the national opera house of
Belgium. Among the works created during his tenure were three evening-
length dances: The Hard Nut, L 'Allegro, il penseroso ed il moderato; and Dido and Aeneas. In 1990
he founded the White Oak Dance Project with Mikhail Baryshnikov. Mr. Morris is also much
in demand as a ballet choreographer. He has created four works for the San Francisco Ballet
since 1994 and has received commissions from such companies as American Ballet Theatre,
Boston Ballet, and the Paris Opera Ballet. His work is in the repertory of the Geneva Ballet,
New Zealand Ballet, English National Ballet, and the Royal Ballet, Covent Garden. He has
worked extensively in opera, directing and choreographing productions for New York City
Opera, English National Opera, and the Royal Opera, Covent Garden. Mr. Morris was named
a Fellow of the MacArthur Foundation in 1991. He has received honorary doctorates from the
Boston Conservatory of Music, the Juilliard School, Long Island University, Pratt Institute,
and Bowdoin College. Mr. Morris is the subject of a biography by Joan Acocella (Farrar, Straus
&. Giroux). In 2001, Marlowe &, Company published Mark Morris' LAllegro, il Penseroso ed il
Moderato: A Celebration, a volume of photographs and critical essays.

MARK MORRIS DANCE GROUP
Mark Morris Dance Group was formed in 1980 and gave its first concert that year in New
York City. The company's touring schedule steadily expanded to include cities both in the U.S.
and in Europe, and in 1986 it made its first national television program for the PBS series
"Dance in America." In 1988 the Dance Group was invited to become the national dance com-
pany of Belgium, and spent three years in residence at the Theatre Royal de la Monnaie in
Brussels. The company returned to the United States in 1991 as one of the worlds leading
dance companies, performing across the U.S. and at major international festivals. It has main-
tained and strengthened its ties to several cities around the world, most notably Berkeley, CA,
where Cal Performances presents the company in two annual seasons, including engagements
of The Hard Nut each December. It appears regularly in Boston, MA; Fairfax, VA; Seattle, WA;
Urbana- Champaign, IL; and at the Jacob's Pillow Dance Festival in Becket, MA. It made its
debut at the Mostly Mozart Festival in 2002 and at Tanglewood in 2003. The company's Lon-
don seasons have garnered two Laurence Olivier Awards. MMDG is noted for its commitment
to live music, a feature of every performance on its full international touring schedule since
1996. Cellist Yo-Yo Ma has frequently collaborated with the Dance Group; their projects
include the 1997 Emmy Award-winning film Falling Down Stairs, using Bach's Suite No. 3 for
Unaccompanied Cello, and the 2002 dance Kolam, created for the Silk Road Project in collabo-
ration with Indian composer Zakir Hussain and jazz pianist Ethan Iverson of The Bad Plus.
MMDG's film and television projects include Dido and Aeneas, The Hard Nut, and two docu-
mentaries for the U.K.'s South Bank Show. In 2001, the Mark Morris Dance Center opened in
Brooklyn, New York. The 30,000-square foot facility features three studios and a school for
dance students of all ages.
CRAIG SMITH
Craig Smith is both founder and artistic director of Emmanuel Music and,
from 1988-91, held the post of permanent guest conductor of the Theatre
Royal de la Monnaie in Brussels. With Emmanuel Music, he conducts a
weekly Bach cantata as part of the Sunday service at Boston's Emmanuel
Church, and a popular and critically acclaimed concert series which has
included J. S. Bach's St. Matthew and St. John Passions, the Christmas Ora-
torio, and B minor Mass; Mozart and Handel operas; Schubert's rarely
heard opera Alfonso and Estrella; major symphonic works; a chamber music
series, and world premieres and commissions by composer and Emmanuel Music principal
guest conductor John Harbison. Mr. Smith has collaborated with stage director Peter Sellars in
opera productions at Pepsico Summerfare, the Brooklyn Academy of Music, Chicago Lyric
Opera, the Guthrie Theatre in Minneapolis, the American Repertory Theatre, and the Opera
Company of Boston. Their productions of Mozart's Cosifan tutte, Le nozze di Figaro, and Don
Giovanni were premiered at Pepsico Summerfare, performed throughout the U.S. and Europe,
filmed with the Vienna Symphony for European and American television, and later released on
video by Decca. Their recent collaboration on Bach cantatas 199 and 82, with mezzo-soprano
Lorraine Hunt Lieberson, was presented in Boston, New York, Paris, London, and Lucerne,
and has been released to critical acclaim on Nonesuch Records. As guest conductor of the
Monnaie Theatre in Brussels, Mr. Smith collaborated with choreographer Mark Morris in
numerous productions that have since been presented in Boston, Minneapolis, New York City's
Lincoln Center, Hong Kong, Los Angeles, Holland, Israel, Los Angeles, and New Zealand.
Mr. Smith made his Houston Grand Opera debut conducting Handel's Giulio Cesare, directed
by Nicholas Hytner. In Boston, he has conducted Cosifan tutte, The Barber of Seville, and Don
Giovanni with Opera Aperta. With Emmanuel Music he has completed recordings of music by
Heinrich Schiitz; John Harbison, and J.S. Bach. Mr. Smith has taught at Juilliard, MIT, and
the New England Conservatory of Music, and is currently on the faculties of Boston University
and the Tanglewood Music Center. Upcoming performances with Emmanuel Music next sea-
son include Handel's Israel in Egypt in November and Robert Schumann's rarely heard opera
Genoveva in April.

NOTES ON THE PROGRAM
Luigi Dallapiccola (1904-1975)
Variations for Orchestra
Luigi Dallapiccola first became acquainted with the music of Schoenberg in 1924, when
he heard a performance of Pierrot Lunaire. The young Italian composer would eventual-
ly come to be the torchbearer for the twelve-tone method in his native land, where
32
things did not always go smoothly for him. His opposition to the Fascist government
during World War II, combined with the fact that his wife was Jewish, forced him into
hiding and brought him to the realization that "the world of. . .carefree serenity closed
for me." His wartime experience imbued his music with themes of liberty and protest.
The Variations for Orchestra (1954) are essentially an or-
chestration of an earlier work, Quaderno musicale di Annalibera
for piano ("Annalibera's Musical Notebook"), composed in
1952. Dallapiccola's note for the world premiere recording —
by the Louisville Orchestra, which had commissioned the
work and premiered it on October 2, 1954 — demonstrates
both his dodecaphonic approach to composition and his polit-
ical preoccupations:
[The] Variazioni per Orchestra are not at all variations in the
traditional sense of the word. At the base of the whole com-
position there is the same twelve-tone row that I am using
for my Songs of Liberation, a work for chorus and orchestra now in progress, and that
I used for [Annalibera's Musical Notebook]. The Variations represent the orchestral
interpretation of the latter. Annalibera is the name of my little daughter, and her
name stems from the same root as liberation. In the notebook I have tried to explain
the treatment of the twelve-tone row applied to the different elements of music. In
the orchestral version I have eliminated the original titles. . .and kept only the tempo
indications. The twelve-tone row is varied in each piece in a different way.
Though Dallapiccola removed them, it seems of interest to note the titles originally
attached to the movements: Symbol, Accents, Contrapunctus primus, Lines, Contra-
punctus secundus, Friezes, Contrapunctus tertius, Rhythms, Color, Shadows, and
Quatrain, respectively.
The rigid methods of serialism have often drawn comparison with the fugal and
canonic techniques of Bach (Schoenberg saw himself as a direct descendant of that line-
age), and the Variations for Orchestra contain both explicit and indirect references to
the Baroque master. The first movement is based upon Bach's well-known musical
monogram, B-flat, A, C, B-natural ("H" in German nomenclature), while Dallapiccola's
systematic exploration of different permutations of the row — along with the application
of the label "contrapunctus" to movements three, five, and seven in the original work for
piano — evoke Bach's compendium of fugal techniques, The Art of the Fugue. And of
course, the title of the original piano work reminds one of Bach's Notebook for Anna
Magdalena Bach, although Bach intended his work to be played by his dedicatee, while
Dallapiccola surely did not, given the work's difficult metric shifts.

Arnold Schoenberg (1874-1951)
Five Pieces for Orchestra, Opus 16
At the beginning of the 20th century, adherents of the Modernist aesthetic were search-
ing for a new way of organizing the raw materials of art. One can see this most explicit-
ly in an art form like painting or literature: consider the way in which Picasso renders
the body, or Joyce dialogue. Arnold Schoenberg was likewise the instigator of a Modern
music, one that would overturn the current organizing principle of music — tonality —
and require the "invention" of an entirely new process for composing music, the twelve-
tone method, a technique using a strictly ordered series of tones, manipulated according
to the operations of inversion (a mirror of the original series), retrograde (the series in
reverse order), retrograde inversion, and transposition.
The Five Pieces for Orchestra, Opus 16, composed during the spring and summer
33
9m
of 1909, fall in between Schoenberg's farewell to tonality and the development of his
twelve-tone method (the first wholly twelve-tone work, the Opus 23 piano pieces, would
not be written until 1920). Many of his watershed pieces in establishing an atonal musi-
cal language cluster around this date — the Opus 11 piano
pieces (1909), the monodrama Erwartung (1910), Pierrot
Lunaire (1912). That Opus 16 was premiered abroad — in
London on March 6, 1912 — and was not heard in his native
Vienna until 1969, gives one some idea of the attitude of con-
temporary musicians towards Schoenberg's revolutionary
music; the
Vienna Philharmonic of his era refused to play it. Indeed,
Schoenberg had to form the Society for the Performance of
New Music in 1919 in order to hear his own chamber compo-
sitions.
Schoenberg described Opus 16 (somewhat redundantly) as "just a colorful, uninter-
rupted variation of color, rhythms and moods." To be sure, at the time of the work's
composition Schoenberg (also an amateur painter) was indeed preoccupied with musical
color, i.e., instrumentation and orchestration:
I cannot unreservedly agree with the distinction between color and pitch. I find that
a note is perceived by its color, one of whose dimensions is pitch If the ear could
discriminate between differences of color, it might be feasible to invent melodies that
are built of colors.
Tonality aside, Schoenberg was clearly also re-imagining the very nature of melody,
which was traditionally, until the 20th century, a focal point in any composition. The
result is the so-called Klangfarbenmelodie (literally "melody based in sound-colors"),
where a succession of differing timbres is treated as analogous to the succession of dif-
fering pitches in a melody, and which would come to be associated more with Schoen-
berg's student Anton Webern. Schoenberg put these new ideas into practice in Opus 16,
especially in the third movement, "Chord Colors," as is evident from the title. To these
ends, the orchestra is as large and as rich as in the uber- Romanticism of Strauss or
Mahler; Schoenberg was not ready to jettison every element of 19th-century tradition
he inherited.
All the movements bear programmatic titles, which Schoenberg grudgingly added at
the insistence of the publisher, despite his belief that "whatever was to be said has been
said, by the music." The titles he devised seem overly general and perfunctory, as is indi-
cated by his sarcastic annotations to them in a diary entry:
I. Premonitions (everybody has those)
II. The Past (everybody has that too)
III. Chord Colors (technical)
IV. Peripetia (general enough, I think)
V The Obbligato (perhaps better the "fully developed"
or the "endless") Recitative
Schoenberg added his hope that the printed score would indicate that "these titles
were added for technical reasons of publication and should not give a poetic content."
Yet they do prove somewhat useful as characterizations of each movement. For instance,
the first movement offers a "premonition" of sorts in that it is built from motivic trans-
formations of material presented in the first few bars (the seeds of the twelve-tone
method are beginning to be sown), while the outburst that opens the fourth movement
invokes the meaning of "peripetia" in Greek literature: a sudden and unexpected turn of
events.

Hector Berlioz (1803-1869)
Sympboniefantastique, Episode from the life of an artist, Opus 14
Sigmund Freud held that art was the result of the sublimation of sexual and aggressive
drives inherent to the id; he would have found a ready-made "poster child" in Hector
Berlioz. Even at a young age, Berlioz had already employed music as a translation of his
desire: in 1815, when he was just twelve years old, he felt "an electric shock" when he
first beheld the eighteen-year old Estelle Duboeuf, the niece of one of his grandfather's
neighbors in the village of Meylan, and subsequently com-
posed an "intensely sad song" based on his experience. The
connections of this youthful crush to the Symphonie fantastique
are manifold: even in his formative years, the composer al-
ready exhibited the same sort of "love at first sight" and deep
yearning for an idealized woman that would eventually spur
the composition of this most famous work. In fact, he actually
resurrects the melody he composed for Estelle as the violin
melody in the Largo that begins the symphony.
On September 11, 1827, Berlioz attended a performance
of Shakespeare's Hamlet in Paris (the Bard being very much in
vogue on the continent at that time). Ophelia was portrayed by an Irish actress named
Harriet Smithson, and Berlioz again found himself infatuated. For several months, Ber-
lioz tried in vain to bring himself to her attention, by writing letters, with his music, and
through social machinations. But when she left Paris in 1829, they had not yet met and
she probably had no idea of the true nature of the obsessive desire Berlioz had been
nourishing for her (these days, we would probably call it "stalking"): "If she could for
one moment conceive all the poetry, all the infinity of such a love, she would fly to my
arms, even if she must die from my embrace."
It was during this time that Berlioz began to contemplate a "grand symphony in
which the development of my infernal passion is to be depicted." Also, shortly after
Smithson left Paris, Berlioz heard some (unfounded) gossip reporting a liaison between
her and her manager, which no doubt provided the impetus for the disillusioned and
dark imagery of the ultimate program, which begins to creep into the third movement
("What if she were deceiving him?"). In a letter to Humbert Ferrand dated April 16,
1830, he outlined the program for the work, in a form very close to that of its final
incarnation, complete with a formulation of its central melodic idea:
Whenever the image of his loved one appears before his mind's eye it is accompanied
by a musical thought in whose character he finds a grace and a nobility akin to those
he attributes to his beloved. This. . .idee fixe pursues him incessantly. . .in every move-
ment of the symphony.
Vaguely prefiguring the Wagnerian leitmotiv, Berlioz's idee fixe reflects the thoughts
of his main "character."
Berlioz secured a performance of the work on December 5, 1830, before he departed
for Italy as the winner of the prestigious Prix de Rome (which, just as with Smithson,
he had been adamandy pursuing for quite some time). By his own account, the critics
were split over the work, with some "understanding what I was aiming for" and "assess-
ing me sanely," and others (unjustly) bristling against the "crudeness of certain modula-
tions" or the "systematic failure to observe certain fundamental rules of music." (This
would be only the beginning of Berlioz's clash with the conservative Parisian musical
establishment, which would block him from attaining a post at the Conservatoire.)
Berlioz makes no specific mention, however, of the critics' reaction to the most revo-
lutionary aspect of the work: his handling of the orchestra, from which he extracted

Berlioz's Own Program for his "Symphonie fantastique"
PROGRAM
of the Symphony
A young musician of morbidly sensible temperament and fiery imagination poisons
himself with opium in a fit of lovesick despair. The dose of the narcotic, too weak to
kill him, plunges him into a deep slumber accompanied by the strangest visions,
during which his sensations, his emotions, his memories are transformed in his sick
mind into musical thoughts and images. The loved one herself has become a melody
to him, an idee fixe as it were, that he encounters and hears everywhere.
PART I— REVERIES, PASSIONS
He recalls first that soul-sickness, that vague des passions, those depressions, those
groundless joys, that he experienced before he first saw his loved one; then the vol-
canic love that she suddenly inspired in him, his frenzied suffering, his jealous rages,
his returns to tenderness, his religious consolations.
PART II— A BALL
He encounters the loved one at a dance in the midst of the tumult of a brilliant party.
PART III— SCENE IN THE COUNTRY
One summer evening in the country, he hears two shepherds piping a ranz des
vaches* in dialogue; this pastoral duet, the scenery, the quiet rustling of the trees gen-
tly brushed by the wind, the hopes he has recently found some reason to entertain —
all concur in affording his heart an unaccustomed calm, and in giving a more cheer-
ful color to his ideas. But she appears again, he feels a tightening in his heart,
painful presentiments disturb him — what if she were deceiving him? — One of the
shepherds takes up his simple tune again, the other no longer answers. The sun
sets — distant sound of thunder — loneliness — silence.
PART IV— MARCH TO THE SCAFFOLD
He dreams that he has killed his beloved, that he is condemned to death and led to
the scaffold. The procession moves forward to the sounds of a march that is now
somber and fierce, now brilliant and solemn, in which the muffled sound of heavy
steps gives way without transition to the noisiest clamor. At the end, the idee fixe
returns for a moment, like a last thought of love interrupted by the fatal blow.
PART V— DREAM OF A WITCHES' SABBATH
He sees himself at the sabbath, in the midst of a frightful troop of ghosts, sorcerers,
monsters of every kind, come together for his funeral. Strange noises, groans, bursts
of laughter, distant cries which other cries seem to answer. The beloved's melody
appears again, but it has lost its character of nobility and shyness; it is no more than
a dance tune, mean, trivial, and grotesque: it is she, coming to join the sabbath. — A
roar of joy at her arrival. — She takes part in the devilish orgy. — Funeral knell, bur-
lesque parody of the Dies irae, sabbath round-dance. The sabbath round and the Dies
irae combined.
*A ranz des vaches is defined in The New Grove as "a Swiss mountain melody sung or played on an
alphorn by herdsmen in the Alps to summon their cows." — Ed.

sounds never before heard in the history of music, breaking the bounds of the more
"compartmentalized" treatment of the ensemble evident in the music of the Classic era
and expanding its size to unprecedented proportions. His techniques of orchestration,
as manifest in both his music and in his Treatise on Orchestration, are indeed his greatest
legacy — the cliched phrase "orchestral palette of color" cannot be fully applied to any
composer prior to Berlioz. Also, the Symphonie fantastique can been regarded as the
symbolic fountainhead for the great Romantic tradition of program music, carried on
in the tone poems of Franz Liszt and Richard Strauss. Along these lines, the really re-
markable thing about the work is the degree to which the music seems "pictorial," pre-
figuring many of the gestures now familiar in the idiom of film music. (Consider the
fourth movement, where the executioner's blow is echoed by pizzicato strings, repre-
senting the decapitated head's bounce into the basket, or the garish woodwinds of the
fifth movement, when the idee fixe returns in a grotesque form.)
And what of unrequited love? It was after Berlioz returned from Rome that the
work would face its most important critic. Smithson had since returned to Paris, and
through the influence of a mutual acquaintance had been induced to attend a perform-
ance of the work on December 9, 1832, on which occasion it was accompanied by its
"sequel," Lelio, or the Return to Life, a musical monodrama (a sort of play with only one
character, set to music).
Sitting in the audience that evening, she made the connection between the young
musician who had unsuccessfully pursued her two years earlier, the subject of the musi-
cal works before her, and the fervent passion that she supposed was still burning in Ber-
lioz's heart. Apparently, she was at last moved. A meeting between the two was finally
arranged the following day, and they were married in the fall. Sadly, there was not to be
a fairy tale ending: theirs was a miserable union, and they separated in 1844.

NOTES ON THE PROGRAM
Even today, in an age that has heard Bach's Mass in B minor, Beethoven's Missa Solem-
nis, and the Requiems of Berlioz and Verdi, the Monteverdi Vespers of 1610 is astonish-
ing for the grandeur of its conception and the opulence of its sound. For its time, it was
unprecedented. No other surviving work from that time is written on such a scale, com-
bining the grandest of public music with the most intimate of solo songs; no other such
work calls for the many colorful obbligato instruments and uses them in such a daringly
modern, virtuosic way.
Like the music itself, the performing forces required by the
Vespers are on a grand scale. Monteverdi calls for seven solo
singers. The chorus must be large enough to divide into any-
where from four to ten voice parts, and it sometimes divides
into separate choirs. The orchestra displays a rich variety of
instrumental colors, including virtuosic solo parts for violins
and cornetti, but the instruments are specified only in certain
movements. For much of the piece, it is the conductor who
must determine the orchestration — whether to double voice
parts with instruments and, if so, where to do it, as well as
which instruments to use in the many parts of the music
where they are not specified. It is also left to the conductor to decide whether to assign
some passages in the choral movements to solo singers. Thus the Vespers can vary gready
from one performance to another.
The orchestra for this early Baroque work is still essentially a large Renaissance
ensemble. While a later orchestra would normally be built around a central core of the
string section and add various solo winds, Monteverdi's orchestra consists of three more
40
or less equal sections. There is the string section comprised of violins, violas, cellos, and
violone, the last being the double bass of the gamba family, an instrument with six strings
and frets. Second, there are the winds. These include three cornetti, curved wooden
instruments with about the same range as the trumpet; they are virtuosic instruments
like the violins, and occasionally have to play in their extreme high range in this work.
The winds also include three sackbuts (early trombones), Renaissance recorders, and, in
our performance, a dulcian (early bassoon). Finally there is the continuo section, which
is responsible for playing the bass line and improvising the harmonic accompaniment.
For this, our performance uses an organ, a harpsichord, two lutes (one of them the larg-
er theorbo), and a cello.
When the Vespers first appeared in print (Venice, 1610), Monteverdi was still em-
ployed at the ducal court in Mantua. No one knows whether it was actually performed
in Mantua or written with an eye toward applying elsewhere — Venice or perhaps even
Rome (the publication was dedicated to Pope Paul V). In any case, it must certainly
have served Monteverdi well when he applied for and won the prestigious post of maes-
tro di cappella at the Basilica of St. Mark's in Venice in August of 1613.
The Structure of the Piece
By Monteverdi's time, the Catholic church had developed a strong cult of the Virgin
Mary, and a good deal of music was dedicated to her. There were a number of special
Marian feasts during the course of the year, and Monteverdi's music sets texts that all of
these feasts have in common. In addition, the Vespers includes a sonata, as well as non-
liturgical motets, which Monteverdi interpolates between the psalms. The music could
therefore be used for various Marian feasts during the year.
In order to make a complete service, one would have to add to Monteverdi's music
the parts of the liturgy that change from one feast to another. This would have been
done by inserting the chants appropriate for that day before each of the psalms and the
Magnificat. We follow that practice in this performance, using chants for the Feast of
the Assumption (August 15). There are two reasons for choosing chants for this partic-
ular feast. For one, a major Marian feast, such as this one, might be an appropriate
occasion to employ a large ensemble, such as the one Monteverdi requires here. In addi-
tion, the Feast of the Assumption occurs at the time of year when Monteverdi was
auditioning for his post at St. Mark's, and he almost certainly would have performed the
work at that time.
One of the most glorious and moving features of this Vespers is found in the way
Monteverdi has chosen to unify it. Like Bach, who draws inspiration from the restric-
tions of writing in the most complex counterpoint, Monteverdi undertook the forbid-
ding task of building all his major movements — all the psalms, the sonata, the hymn,
and the entire Magnificat — upon the traditional Gregorian chants for those texts. In
other words, he used the notes of the old chant as a fixed voice {cantus firmus) upon
which he built elaborate compositions. This is easiest to hear in the closing Magnificat,
where, in one short movement after another, the chant is sung in long notes, while solo
singers and instruments perform faster notes around it. This creates a clash of styles —
an astonishing variety of "modern" music superimposed upon an old-style technique.
The two styles are reconciled with breathtaking beauty, and the technique allows
Monteverdi to build an enormous structure that goes beyond anything his contempo-
raries were able to achieve.
Of the endless details in the Vespers, here are a few that might be useful while listening.
The Nigra sum (the only solo song in the Vespers) and Pulchra es are settings of sensual

poetry from the Song of Solomon, poetry that had long been associated allegorically with
Mary.
In Duo seraphim, two angels, sung by two tenors, are calling to each other across
vast space. When the text turns to the Trinity, a third tenor joins them; and at the words
"these three are one," the three voices come together on a single note.
The Audi coelum features a wonderful wordplay: from a distance, one tenor echoes
the phrase endings of the other, and as he echoes only a part of the last word, he forms
a new word as an answer to the first tenor.
The Sonata sopra Sancta Maria is the only real instrumental piece in the whole Ves-
pers. As the virtuosic instrumental music unfolds, the sopranos of the chorus repeat a
phrase of chant eleven times over constantly varying music.
As mentioned above, the Vespers ends with a Magnificat in which the Magnificat
chant is sung in long notes throughout every section of the movement. It is a stunning
encyclopedia of the old and new styles.

NOTES ON THE PROGRAM
In the hands of a master, the string quartet medium elicits singular qualities from ideas
of symphonic complexity, intensifying and individualizing the emotional expression of
the materials while, at the same time, revealing their abstract structural and psychologi-
cal aspects with unsurpassable clarity. Such mastery has endowed tonight's three quar-
tets with inexhaustible fascination.
The Quartet in F minor, Opus 55, No. 2, of Franz Joseph Haydn (1732-1809) earned
a curious nickname during a visit paid to the composer by the English music publisher
John Bland. As they engaged in small talk, Haydn remarked, "I would give my best
quartet for a set of decent razors." Bland fetched his own luxurious shaving kit from his
lodgings, and in return, a grateful Haydn gave him this score,
known ever since as Haydn's Razor Quartet.
Written c.1788, the Razor was one of twelve quartets
(Opp. 54, 55, and 64) dedicated to the violinist- turned-entre-
preneur Johann Peter Tost — and almost any one of the dozen
could qualify as "my best quartet." By now possessing sover-
eign control of momentum, Haydn had also unlocked his
potential for unlimited artistic ripening — a ripening that
would continue to accelerate until failing health after 1800
made it impossible for him to bear the strain of composing.
Cast in a favorite form synthesized by Haydn, the first
movement of this quartet presents two variations on a complex of two alternating and
related themes, one plaintive in minor mode, the other in serene major. The first varia-
tion treats each theme to a different sort of rhythmic elaboration; the second showcases
the cello both in pattering bass (minor) and tenor lyricism (major). The bold F minor
theme that opens the second-movement sonata-allegro returns in a major-key variant to
launch the second subject. In the development, this theme is so fully exploited in vertig-
inous modulations and a spiky fugue that Haydn advisedly omits the first subject in the
reprise. The genial F major minuet is a contrapuntal tour-de-force, with melody and
bass exchanging registers and roles. Cautionary minor-mode resurfaces in the central
Trio. A high-spirited finale in skipping jig patterns abounds in rhythmic surprises. In
the development, Haydn improbably turns the principal theme upside-down.
Spanning some three decades, the six quartets of Bela Bartok (1881-1945) constitute
one of the greatest chamber music achievements of the twentieth
century. Each reflects the full range of his achievement to date
in crystallized, rarefied four-voice terms. His Quartet No. 1,
completed on January 27, 1909, after months of labor, took
shape when Bartok was moving beyond his earliest Straussian
style — coming to grips with coloristic-harmonic Impression-
ism a la Debussy while, at the same time, making his first
studies of Hungarian folk music. Premiered on March 19,
1910, in Budapest, the score is cast in three movements heard
without pause. Ethnic concerns surface chiefly in the finale. In
the previous movements, Impressionist enrichments of late
Romanticism combined with Bartok's ever-lively rhythms result in intense expressivity.
Bartok called the first movement (written in the wake of a failed love affair) "my
funeral dirge." From the outset, he approaches the string quartet as a polyphonic genre,
presenting a mournful two-violin canon subsequently amplified by the other instruments.
47
In a central section, animated viola commentary takes the spotlight from the nominal
violin melody; eventually the canon is counterstated. Duets bridge to a waltz-like Alle-
gretto in foreshortened sonata form. Here, an oft-repeated four-note motif will bear
watching. Presently, viola and second violin provide a flowing melody. A rhythmically
broader development section shows unexpected capacity for passion. Introductory dance
in alternation with free-rhythmed cello oration summons the exhilarating finale, in
which the four-note motif reappears as an important theme beneath chugging repeated
notes and later undergoes exhaustive, oft-witty development.
Surely no body of Western art-music is more highly revered than the last group
of string quartets (Nos. 12-16, plus the Grosse Fuge) by Ludwig van Beethoven (1770-
1827). Innovative in every dimension — form, expression, harmony, and narrative metho-
dology — these scores offer profound illumination of psychic travails and epiphanies.
Beethoven's Quartet No. 11 was almost a decade behind
him when, in January 1823, he accepted a commission for
three new quartets from Prince Galitizin. So deeply, however,
was he then embroiled in his Diabelli Variations and Ninth
Symphony that he got to the commission only in June 1824.
With Quartet No. 12 nearly complete that December, Bee-
thoven commenced the present quartet in A minor.
A health crisis in April forced Beethoven to put aside the
A minor for about a month; and recovery inspired a "convales-
cent's prayer of thanksgiving after a serious illness" as the slow
movement. In June, Beethoven began a third quartet (the B-
flat major, Op. 130), and the A minor reached completion in July 1825, receiving its
premiere on November 6 in Vienna. Curiously, the number 13 went to the later B-flat
quartet, while an even later quartet (C-sharp minor) became No. 14. The A minor, per-
force, appeared as Quartet No. 15, Op. 132.
Ostensibly cast in five movements, Quartet No. 15 actually follows the traditional
four-section sonata layout, for the fourth movement functions as an introduction to the
finale. Beethoven opens with a brooding four-note chromatic cello motif that will play
an important role throughout the first movement. The tempo speeds with a florid violin
outburst, and a first-subject complex based on a dotted-rhythm melodic fragment
unfolds. The second subject brings a theme of piercing lyric consolation, commenced by
second violin. After the eventful development section, the reprise finds the themes in
the "wrong" keys, tonal balance being restored by a "coda- raw- ^recapitulation."
An A major minuet continually redeploys two elements, always with a certain a
humorous lumpiness. The central Trio begins as a celestial yet childlike musette. In the
"prayer of thanksgiving," Beethoven creates an air of timeless antique mystery by using
the sharped fourth of the Lydian mode, and by evoking the archaic Chorale Prelude
form. An echo of the chorale's last phrase summons an Andante of lilting euphoria
(Beethoven labels this section "feeling new strength"). When the prelude resumes, deco-
ration takes on greater rhythmic complexity, and the Andante also returns varied. Ulti-
mately the chorale abandons its original shape to undergo fluid imitative treatment.
Beethoven opens the fourth movement with a robust march. What initially seems
The Juilliard Quartet included Beethoven's A minor string quartet, Opus 132, as
part of its very first Ozawa Hall program, on July 10, 1994.
48
like a Trio section is derailed as the first violin embarks on an intensely operatic recita-
tive that ushers in the finale. The main theme here suggests a harried protagonist cop-
ing with an immeasurably tragic situation. The second subject brings only ephemeral
lightening of mood, and after the rondo theme resurfaces, dense development pits jost-
ling motifs in contention. A coda following the normal reprise seems destined to climax
in a frenzied crash of the first theme. But glints of major mode suddenly emerge, and
soon, all is lightness, ease, and play, the work ending in ebullient triumph.

GUEST ARTISTS
Juilliard String Quartet
Celebrated for its performances of works by com-
posers as diverse as Beethoven, Schubert, Bartok,
and Elliott Carter, the Juilliard String Quartet has
been recognized for over fifty years as the quintes-
sential American string quartet. The 2003-04 season
included tours of the United States and Canada, as
well as programs in Diisseldorf, Austria, Italy, Den-
mark, Switzerland, and Mexico. Also in 2003-04,
the quartet celebrated its 40th anniversary as quar-
tet-in-residence at the Library of Congress, an event
marked by a ten-concert complete Beethoven cycle
interspersed with works by American composers whose works the quartet has championed
throughout its existence. As quartet-in-residence at New York City's Juilliard School, the
Juilliard String Quartet is widely admired for its seminal influence on aspiring string players
around the world. In a momentous occasion at Tanglewood in 1997, the Juilliard String
Quartet's founder and first violinist Robert Mann retired from the group after fifty years.
Also that season, Musical America named the quartet "Musicians of the Year." The Juilliard
String Quartet has performed a comprehensive repertoire of some 500 works, ranging from
the great classical composers to masters of the current century. It was the first ensemble to
play all six Bartok quartets in the United States (including the first complete cycle, at Tan-
glewood in 1948), and it was through the group's performances that the quartets of Arnold
Schoenberg were rescued from obscurity. An ardent champion of contemporary American
music, the quartet has premiered more than sixty compositions of American composers and
is a persuasive advocate for the string quartets of Elliott Carter; a landmark recording of
those works was issued in 1991 by Sony Classical. The ensemble records exclusively for Sony
Classical and has been associated with that label, in its various incarnations, since 1949. With
more than 100 releases to its credit, the ensemble is one of the most widely recorded string
quartets of our time; and its recordings of the complete Beethoven quartets, the complete
Schoenberg quartets, and the Debussy and Ravel string quartets have all received Grammy
Awards. The members of the Juilliard String Quartet are all American-born and -trained.
Violinist Joel Smirnoff is a native of New York City; a former Boston Symphony violinist, he
has been a member of the quartet for nearly sixteen years, the last six as the ensemble's
leader, having previously been the group's second violinist. Born in Arkansas, violinist Ronald
Copes joined the ensemble as second violinist in 1997. Violist Samuel Rhodes, a New York
native, celebrates his 35th season as a member of Juilliard String Quartet and faculty member
at the Juilliard School. As cellist of the Juilliard String Quartet since 1974, Joel Krosnick has
recorded most of the great quartet literature and has performed throughout the world.

NOTES ON THE PROGRAM
Felix Mendelssohn (1809-1847)
Overture to Ruy Bias, Opus 95
Mendelssohn's overtures were among his most popular works during his lifetime (as
they are now), although most — such as the Hebrides and A Midsummer Nights Dream —
were not conceived as overtures in the traditional theatrical sense. The Ruy Bias Over-
ture, however, was indeed originally composed as a prelude to a production of Victor
Hugo's eponymous play in Leipzig in 1839, where it was
given as a benefit for the pension fund of the Leipzig Theater.
At first, Mendelssohn was not enthusiastic when ap-
proached about providing a few vocal numbers for the per-
formance; he considered the play to be "utterly wretched and
beneath contempt." Almost inexplicitly, at the very last min-
ute the former wunderkind decided to compose an overture,
apparently just to see if he could carry off such a feat at the
eleventh hour: in order to have sufficient rehearsal time, he
had to complete the work and have the parts copied in just six
days. Though he remained disdainful of the play, he was quite
satisfied with the hastily composed overture and seems to have passed his own stress
test. He immediately made plans to adapt the work outside of its dramatic context, jok-
ing about jettisoning the name of the abhorrent play:
It was performed with the dreadful play, and I enjoyed it as much as anything I've
done. In the next. . .concert we will play it again, by popular demand; though this
time I won't call it an "Overture to Ruy Bias," but instead, "Overture to the Theater
Pension Fund."
Hugo's play is one of intrigue and melodrama set in the Spanish court of King Charles
II, a locality evident in the rhythms that underlie the second, more lyrical theme of the
overture. The opening chords in the winds — followed by an agitated figure in the strings
that foreshadows the main theme — cannot fail to conjure the same grim portent of pal-
ace mayhem that one finds in the preludes to Verdi's Rigoletto or Macbeth. With its slow
dotted-rhythm introduction and frenetic Allegro, the overture is cast from a standard mold,
not surprisingly given Mendelssohn's flip, last-minute approach to the entire project.
Zoltan Kodaly (1882-1967)
Hdryjdnos Suite
Zoltan Kodaly may be destined to go down in the history of 20th century music as that
"other" Hungarian composer, standing in the shadow of his friend and colleague Bela
Bartok, with whom he collected, published, and promulgated Hungarian folk music. In
addition to his ethnographical research, Kodaly established an educational method that
employed the singing of folk music (supplemented by art music) as its central compo-
nent in fostering musical literacy through simplified musical notation, solmization, hand
signs (later featured in the film Close Encounters of the Third Kind), and body movement.
Ever an educator, Kodaly was concerned with instilling a heightened appreciation for
music in the public at large through his own compositions as well. He felt this was best
achieved in combining the dramatic appeal of theatrical works with the cultural reso-
nance of folk materials: "Once the walls of our theaters and the ears of our people have
become attuned to folk music, it will be possible to move on to work of a higher order. . . .
We must first arouse in them the consciousness of their own musical language." It was
51
in this spirit that in 1926 he began work on the opera Hdry Jdnos, from which he would
extract the orchestral suite at the suggestion of Bartok.
Kodaly characterizes the main character of both the opera and the suite as a colorful
raconteur whose embellished yarns hold a certain poignant fascination:
Day after day he sits in the tavern and recounts his incredible heroic feats [in the
Napoleonic wars]. He is a true peasant, and his grotesque inventions are a touching
mixture of realism and naivete, of comedy and pathos.. . .On the surface he may ap-
pear to be no more than an armchair hero, but in essence he is a poet, carried away
by his dreams and feelings. His tales are not true, but that is not the point. They are
the fruits of his lively fantasy, which creates for himself and for
others a beautiful world of dreams.
The comedy of the stage production instantly finds its way
into the suite: an opening "sneeze" — a glissando slowly rising
across the whole orchestra and than falling again, more quick-
ly, in the piano — indicates (according to the Hungarian folk
tradition) that what follows is to be taken with a grain of salt,
in a sense deflating the brooding music that ensues. Indeed,
Kodaly never takes Hary too seriously, as the melodramatic
^Wi ^k I moments in the piece are always offset by the incredulous
*Jm,W A I reproach of comic gestures or orchestration. The defeat of
Napoleon is tinged with irony, as the caricatured pompousness of the brass and percus-
sion is mocked by a comical saxophone, jagged intervals, and apparent metric disinte-
gration. Adding another lighthearted element, the chirping timbres of the woodwinds
often dominate ("Viennese Musical Clock," "Entrance of the Emperor"). Kodaly also
calls for an ample battery of percussion instruments, including the cimbalom — a ham-
mered dulcimer from the Hungarian gypsy tradition — that adds an especially folkish
color to the quasi-improvisatory third movement ("Song"), in which Hungarian inflect-
ed figurations are perhaps most transparent.
Richard Wagner (1813-1883)
Prelude and Liebestod from Tristan und Isolde
To modern sensibilities, Richard Wagner's life as of August 1857 seems complicated.
In exile in Zurich as a result of his role in the 1848 political uprising in Dresden, the
habitually indigent composer was enjoying the hospitality of Otto Wesendonck, while
also engaged in an intense personal and probably sexual relationship with that man's
wife, Mathilde (there has been some dispute as to whether
or not Wagner and Mathilde ever consummated their affec-
tions). He was also hard at work on Act II of Siegfried, the
third installment of his mammoth tetralogy Der Ring des
Nibelungen, a practical application of his new and ambitious
vision for the future of music.
At the same time another project was weighing on his
mind, probably for a variety of reasons. The prospects for a
performance of the Ring looked grim, due to its massive size,
its demands on vocalists, and the fact that no commission had
emerged for it. Also, since 1854 Wagner had been consumed
by the philosophy of Arthur Schopenhauer, and the new work under contemplation was
deeply in the spirit of that world-view. A pessimist, Schopenhauer posited an unrelent-
ing and unknowable Will that drove all existence, an underlying reality of sexual desire
and violence that held humanity in its thrall. Wagner's new opera, Tristan und Isolde,
52
relates the mythical story of two lovers brought together against all logic and loyalty,
whose inescapable attraction to one another destroys them yet unites them in death
{Liebestod, or "love-death"). Wagner put Siegfried aside and began work on Tristan, com-
pleting the work by August 1859.
The Prelude to Tristan, like that of Die Meistersinger von Niirnberg, took on a life
of its own in the concert hall before the entire opera was even staged, partly owing to
Wagner's difficulty in finding someone willing to produce it. The devoted Wagnerian
Hans von Bulow (another man whose wife, Cosima, Wagner would later steal and this
time marry) conducted the piece in Prague and Leipzig in 1859, having composed his
own concert ending since in its original context the Prelude leads without pause directly
into the drama. Wagner himself conducted the Prelude in early 1860 in Paris (now with
his own ending), as part of his campaign to establish himself there and hopefully mount
a production of the full opera, which never materialized, a disappointment to be repeat-
ed in Vienna later that year.
It was in a St. Petersburg concert of March 10, 1863, that Wagner first coupled the
Prelude with Tristans final scene, which he referred to as the heroine's "transfiguration."
(The appellation "Liebestod" became inextricably attached to Isolde's monologue when it
was labeled as such in Liszt's piano transcription of the opera; Wagner actually consis-
tently applied this term to the Prelude.) As the voices of her companions fade from her
perception, Isolde's transfiguration transcends the temporal world (which barred a feasi-
ble union with Tristan), and she begins to see breath anew in Tristan's crumpled body —
he lives again for her alone as she joins him in an ideal realm of fulfilled desire. Wagner
wrote:
Yet what Fate divided in life now springs into transfigured life in death: the gates of
the union are thrown open. Over Tristan's body the dying Isolde receives the blessed

fulfillment of ardent longing. Eternal union in measureless space, without barriers,
without fears, inseparable!
In orchestral concerts, the Liebestod is usually performed without the vocal part. This
is fortuitous in a sense, because in Schopenhauer's philosophy it is really only instru-
mental music that grants unencumbered access to the Will. Of course, the notion that
music offers a window into pure feeling, unmitigated by language, is a common trope in
19th century thought. Indeed the lush orchestration, surging climaxes, and heaving
sighs of Tristan seem to codify the very sound of Romanticism.
WAGNER Liebestod from "Tristan und Isolde"
Mild und leise wie er lachelt,
wie das Auge hold er offnet —
seht ihr's, Freunde? Seht ihr's nicht?
Immer lichter wie er leuchtet,
sterm-umstrahlet hoch sich hebt?
Seht ihr's nicht?
Wie das Herz ihm mutig schwillt,
voll und hehr im Busen ihm quillt?
Wie den Lippen, wonnig mild,
siisser Atem sanft entweht —
Freunde! Seht!
Fiihlt und seht ihr's nicht?
Hore ich nur diese Weise,
die so wundervoll und leise,
Wonne klagend, alles sagend,
mild versohnend aus ihm tonend,
in mich dringet, auf sich schwinget,
hold erhallend um mich klinget?
Heller schallend, mich umwallend,
sind es Wellen sanfter Liifte?
Sind es Wogen wonniger Diifte?
Wie sie schwellen, mich umrauschen,
soil ich atmen, soil ich lauschen?
Soil ich schliirfen, untertauchen?
Suss in Diiften mich verhauchen?
In dem wogenden Schwall,
in dem tonenden Schall,
in des Welt-Atems wehendem All —
ertrinken, versinken —
unbewusst —
hochste Lust!
— Richard Wagner
Softly, calmly, how he's smiling,
how his eyes are gently opening —
See this, friends? Don't you see?
Ever brighter, how he's shining,
star-illumined, nobly rising?
Don't you see?
How his heart, with courage swelling,
fills his breast with noble splendor;
how from his lips, all blissful, tender,
freshened breath is softly stealing —
Friends! Look!
Don't you see and feel this?
Can no others hear this strain
which, full of wonder and so gentle,
rapture-toning, all things telling,
reconciling, from him sounding,
urged upon me, upward- soaring,
gently echoing, rings all round me?
Brightly sounding, flowing round me,
are these wafts of gende breezes?
Are they waves of rapturous vapors?
As they swell and roar about me,
shall I breathe them, shall I heed them,
shall I drain them, plunge beneath them,
sweet with life-end's fragrance scented?
In the billowing swell,
in the all-sounding knell,
in the world-breath's encompassing All —
now drowning — now sinking —
freed from sense —
utmost bliss!

Felix Mendelssohn
Symphony No. 3 in A minor, Opus 56, Scottish
If his overtures brought Mendelssohn recognition as a composer, his symphonies failed
to establish a foothold in the concert hall during his lifetime. The lack of enthusiasm
for his symphonies may explain some delays in their publication, which gives a mistaken
impression of the order of composition: symphonies nos. 4
and 5 were earlier works published posthumously, while the
symphony published as No. 3, the Scottish, was in fact the last
one Mendelssohn finished before his untimely death.
Though it was his last completed symphony, the Scottish
originated in August 1829 during Mendelssohn's extensive
travels throughout England, France, and Italy — the same tour
that inspired his other famous "landscape" pieces, the Italian
Symphony No. 4 and the Hebrides Overture, also conceived
on the British Isles. While on a jaunt to Scotland from Lon-
don (where his music would always be warmly received), Men-
delssohn impetuously sketched the first sixteen bars of the symphony, so taken was he
with the fragmented Medieval romance of his surroundings:
Everything here looks so stern and robust, half wrapped in haze or smoke or fog —
In the twilight today we went to the palace where Queen Mary lived and loved —
the chapel beside it has now lost its roof, it is overgrown with grass and ivy, and at
the broken altar Mary was crowed Queen of Scotland. Everything is ruined, decayed,
and open to sky.
Despite this initial enthusiasm, the Scottish Symphony would soon be put aside as
Mendelssohn's attention turned to the sunny Italian Symphony upon his arrival in that
country: "Who can wonder that I find it difficult to return to my misty Scottish mood?"
he wrote. The work would not be completed until January 1842, and the temporal
remove apparently diluted Mendelssohn's nationalistic sympathies: when the work
was published a year later it bore no descriptive title. (Rather than referencing the
work's inspiration, he used the preface of the published score in order to insist that the
movements be performed without pause, a desire usually unheeded.) Such ambivalence
as to the programmatic association of the work on the part of the composer begs the
question of what Scottish elements can actually be found in the piece. Revealing just
how slippery perceived "meaning" can be in a non-representational art form such as
music, Robert Schumann notoriously mistook the present symphony for the Italian,
asserting that it was "so beautiful as to compensate the listener who had never been in
Italy."
On his tour of Scotland, Mendelssohn witnessed a bagpipe competition, and many
commentators have found echoes of bagpipe tunes in the scherzo, particularly in a
rhythmic turn known as the "Scotch snap" at the end of phrases. Ultimately, if the lis-
teners have Scotland in mind, they cannot fail to feel that the music conjures that land-
scape (just as Schumann, with Italy in mind, was able to find it); really, this is the whole
point of attaching a programmatic title. The dark, reedy coloration of the introductory
Andante will indeed seem to hang over the first movement, which it frames, like those
mists with which Mendelssohn was so taken. The purposeful gallop of the ensuing
Allegro — with its "folkish" grace notes — may suggest knightly deeds, the ghosts of those
ruined casdes Mendelssohn visited.
Though Mendelssohn's symphonies on the whole were unsuccessful, the Scottish
Symphony found a receptive audience, perhaps owing to the colorful landscape listeners
found in it, and perhaps simply because it is a tightly composed work, as is typical of

tinguished conductor and humanist. In September 2002, he became music
director of the Orchestre National de France in Paris. Since September
2000 he has been principal conductor of the London Philharmonic. From
1991 to 2002 he was music director of the New York Philharmonic; fol-
^ M lowing his eleven-year tenure he was named Music Director Emeritus,
: ^^ becoming the first New York Philharmonic music director to receive that
Bk. jfl I title, and only the second (after the late Leonard Bernstein, who was
named Laureate Conductor) to be given an honorary position. The New York Philharmonic
established the "Kurt Masur Fund for the Orchestra," which will endow "conductor debut
week" at the Philharmonic in perpetuity in his honor. Mr. Masur served as Gewandhaus
Kapellmeister of the Leipzig Gewandhaus Orchestra (1970-96); upon his retirement from
that post, the Gewandhaus named him its first-ever Conductor Laureate. Mr. Masur is a
guest conductor with the world's leading orchestras and also holds the lifetime title of Hon-
orary Guest Conductor of the Israel Philharmonic Orchestra. He has received numerous
honors, among them the titles of Commander of the Legion of Honor from the French gov-
ernment and New York City Cultural Ambassador from the City of New York; the Cross
with Star of the Order of Merit of the Federal Republic of Germany, and numerous hon-
orary doctorates. He is also an Honorary Citizen of his hometown Brieg. Kurt Masur made
his United States debut in 1974 with the Cleveland Orchestra; also that year he took the
Gewandhaus Orchestra on its first American tour. He made his New York Philharmonic
debut in 1981. Engagements in the 2003-04 season included appearances with the Schleswig-
Holstein Music Festival Orchestra, the Chicago Symphony Orchestra, the New York Phil-
harmonic, the Israel Philharmonic, the Dresden Philharmonic, and three tours with the

NOTES ON THE PROGRAM
Most of the songs on this varied program connect — some direcdy, others quite oblique-
ly, as we shall see — to early 20th-century England's vital musical scene. The imported
composers who had long dominated the nations concert, operatic, and amateur musical
life now saw their hegemony waning; for, after two centuries of mediocrity, the country
was again producing world-class composers, artists who drew sustenance from Great
Britain's rich folk music traditions.
Ralph Vaughan Williams (1872-1958) was a key figure in this Renaissance. His Songs
of Travel, composed between 1901 and 1904, reflect an interest in England's pastoral
heritage shared by many British intellectuals of his time. Stri-
ding masculine wanderlust suffuses "The Vagabond," while
tender, shimmering colors dominate "Let Beauty awake." Breath-
less ardor in "The Roadside Fire" culminates in a paean to
song. Heartbeat rhythms bespeaking emotional vulnerability
in "Youth and Love" provoke an elated climax.
Dissonances heighten the despair of "In Dreams," a slow
lament, while continually expanding rolled-chordal spaces
reflect the gleams of "The infinite shining heavens." Vaughan
Williams idealizes folk atmosphere in the noble gestures and
melancholy, recurring, minor-mode cadence of "Whither Must
I Wander?" Hymnodic grandeur introduces exalted meditations on the permanence of
art in "Bright is the ring of words," and that opening strain reappears at the close of "I
have trod," resolving dark meditations with a luminous benediction.
As English musicians researched their own folk music, they also ventured into Scot-
land, Ireland, and Wales. Thus traditional songs from those three nations — such as the
sturdy "Ye banks and braes," the nostalgic "Danny Boy," and the tranquil "Ar Hyd y
Nos" (better known as "All through the night") — became an integral part of the British-
American heritage. Mr. Terfel adds two folklike songs by 20th-century Welsh composers:
the English-language "My Litde Welsh Home" in which W.S. Gwynne Williams

(1896-1978) achieved dignity through extreme simplicity; and the melancholy lullaby
"Sul y Blodau" ("Palm Sunday") by Owen Williams (1877-1956).
Ivor Guerney (1890-1937) showed brilliant promise as a student of Vaughan Wil-
liams but suffered a poison gas attack in World War I and never recovered, either physi-
cally or psychologically. Among his Elizabethan Songs — a conservatory effort from 1912
— "Sleep" stands out as an unqualified masterpiece. His sure combination of Elizabethan-
tinged melody with post-Brahmsian harmony and delicate hints of Rachmaninoff-like
ecstasy results in music not quite like anything else. Over hypnotic keyboard undulation,
Gurney spins out a haunting melodic thread that derives almost painful expressivity
from dissonant passing tones and sudden flights of sinuous melisma.
"Peter Warlock" was the composing pseudonym-cz/m-alter ego of the skilled English
musicologist Phillip Heseltine (1894-1930). Warlock's rollicking "Captain Stratton's
Fancy" (1920) combines a melody in pure folk style with a simple-seeming accompani-
ment somewhat enriched by late-Romantic harmonies that reveal the influence of Fred-
erick Delius. The song was issued as one of "Two true topers' tunes to troll with trulls
and trollops in a tavern."
It is all too easy to underrate the deft, gentle art of the English composer Roger
Quilter (1877-1953). Producing 112 songs, admired for their charm and unforced
declamation, Quilter won acclaim for his Shakespeare set-
tings, clothing the Bard's verse in harmonically conservative
music replete with cozy Victorian poise, though free of Vic-
torian stuffiness and vulgarity. The Three Shakespeare Songs,
Opus 6, written in 1904 or 1905, all draw on the Bard's com-
edies, the first two sung by the jester Feste in Twelfth Night.
In "Come away, death," strategic gleams of major mode
through the minor create a bittersweet tableau, culminating
in a heartfelt "weeping" melisma. After a carefree beginning,
"O mistress mine" waxes lusty, but leaves a final, quiet glowing
image of the beloved. In "Blow, blow thou winter wind" from
As You Like It, Quilter 's music traces a commendably convincing emotional path from
the angry verses to the jollicose refrain.
Benjamin Britten (1913-1976), heir to the generation of Vaughan Williams, arrived
in North America in 1939 intending to make his home here, but gradually became dis-
^g^ enchanted. In mid- 1941 he vented his homesickness by ex-
£ m^ ploring his roots in a series of British folksong arrangements.
Repatriating in 1942, Britten arranged several more songs
and the results appeared in a volume published in 1943. Dur-
ing the next two decades, Britten would produce volumes 2
through 6.
Britten's arrangements differ considerably from turn-of-
the-century transcriptions by Ralph Vaughan Williams and
I his circle, which had provided unobtrusive accompaniments
^i and traditional tonal harmonies. Britten thought such attempts
. JH .... J at "authenticity" merely grounded the songs in the nineteenth
century. In his arrangements he used his own distinctive harmonic vocabulary, imbedded
in pellucid textures that display the elemental nature of folk songs in a contemporary
61

context. "The foggy, foggy Dew" (from Volume 3, 1945-46) sports guitar-like simplifi-
cation of both chordal and bass-line progressions. "The Salley Gardens," the first song
in Volume 1, features Schubertian or Berliozian chordal patter punctuated by salient
lower-register motifs. The sassy nursery rhyme "Oliver Cromwell" (Volume 1) evokes
merciless child-laughter with cheerfully clangorous dissonances.
It was Britten at the piano, accompanying the tenor Peter Pears, his life partner, who
in 1951 premiered the first set of Old American Songs by his colleague Aaron Copland
(1900-1990). Britten, as we have seen, had long been produc-
ing such arrangements but, curiously, this was Copland's first
vocal exploration of the folksy Americana that had long in-
formed his instrumental music. Copland observed: "Every-
body seemed to enjoy singing and hearing the Old American
Songs so much that I decided to arrange a second set in 1952."
At the premiere of this set on July 24, 1953, Copland accom-
panied the bass-baritone William Warfield.
Copland's open-textured, plaintive setting of "The Little
Horses" emphasizes the song's pentatonic ancestry. "At the
River" proves a splendid fit for Copland's own harmonic style,
particularly the stepwise dissonances created by accompaniment lines in motion. The
joyous "Ching-a-ring Chaw" is at once a musical delight and a sobering piece of history,
reflecting the widespread 19th-century African- American hopes for establishing a black
nation in Haiti or Liberia.
Although born in Italy, Paolo Tosti (1846-1916) became
one of the imported composers that Victorian England lion-
ized, receiving a knighthood in 1906. Named "Singing Master
to the English Royal Family," Tosti produced dozens of slight
but extremely attractive songs, mostly in Italian, which enjoyed
ubiquity in British drawing rooms and entered the repertories
of operatic superstars. In "Sogno" (1886), ardent preliminaries
set up a broad Italianate melody. "La serenata" (1888) charm-
ingly evokes background strumming by a wooer who sets out
to charm. "Chanson de l'adieu" (1898), one of Tosti's French
Songs, breathes genuine poignancy.

GUEST ARTISTS
Bryn Terfel
Welsh bass-baritone Bryn Terfel studied at the Guildhall School of Music
and Drama with Arthur Reckless and Rudolf Piernay, winning the 1988
Kathleen Ferrier Scholarship and the 1989 Gold Medal Award. That year
he also won the Lieder Prize at the Cardiff Singer of the World Compe-
tition. Other significant awards include BBC Music Magazines "Artist of
the Year" 1999; the 1992 Gramophone Magazine "Young Singer of the
Year"; "Newcomer of the Year" in the inaugural International Classical
Music Awards in 1993; winning the solo vocal category in the Gramo-
phone Awards 1995 for his album "An die Musik"; the People's Award in 1996, voted by lis-
teners of Classic FM, at the Gramophone Awards for his recording "The Vagabond"; and the
1996 Grammy Award for Best Classical Vocal performance for his recording "Opera Arias."
He has performed in all the great opera houses of the world, and is especially recognized for
his portrayals of Figaro and Falstaff. Other roles include Don Giovanni, Leporello, Jochan-
aan in Salome, Nick Shadow in The Rake's Progress, Wolfram in Tannhduser, Balstrode in Peter
Grimes, the Four Villains in Les Contes d'Hoffmann, Dulcamara in L'e/isir d'Amore, and the
title role in Sweeney Todd. Mr. Terfel is known for his versatility as a performer, with high-
lights ranging from The Last Night of the Proms to singing at the opening and closing cere-
monies of the Rugby World Cup and performing at the Royal Variety Performance in the
presence of HRH The Prince of Wales. He has given recitals in many of the major cities of
the world, and also hosts his own festival every year in Faenol, North Wales, which won the
Welsh Tourism Awards' title "Greatest Show in Wales — Event of the Year" in 2002. Bryn
Terfel's versatility is further demonstrated in his numerous recordings, which range from
Mendelssohn's Elijah, Schumann's Liederkreis, and Verdi's Falstaff to "Something Wonderful,"
a collection of songs by Rodgers and Hammerstein; his gold-selling collection of Welsh tra-
ditional songs "We'll Keep a Welcome," and his most recent release, the platinum-selling
album "Bryn." Operatic roles in the 2003-04 season included the title role in a new produc-
tion of Falstaff 'for the Vienna Staatsoper, Jochanaan in Salome at the Metropolitan Opera,
and Mephisto in a new production of Faust for the Royal Opera House, Covent Garden.
Forthcoming plans include his debut as Wotan in Das Rheingold and Die Walkure in the
Royal Opera Houses production of Der Ring des Nibelungen. In 2003, Bryn Terfel was
awarded a CBE in the Queen's New Year Honours list, for his services to opera. Mr. Terfel
made his Boston Symphony debut on the Opening Night concert of the 1997-98 season and
appeared atTanglewood — with the BSO and also in recital with Malcolm Martineau — in
1998. This coming Saturday night he sings excerpts from Wagner's Die Meistersinger von
Niirnberg under the direction of Rafael Friihbeck de Burgos.

Dixit Dominus Domino meo:
sede a dextris meis:
donee ponam inimicos tuos,
scabellum pedum tuorum.
Virgam virtutis tuae emittet Dominus
ex Sion:
dominare in medio inimicorum tuorum.
Tecum principium in die virtutis tuae
in splendoribus sanctorum,
ex utero ante luciferum genui te.
Juravit Dominus, et non poenitebit
eum:
Tu es sacerdos in aeternum
secundum ordinem Melchisedech.
Dominus a dextris tuis,
confregit in die irae suae reges.
Dixit Dominus
The Lord said unto my Lord:
sit thou at my right hand,
until I make thine enemies
thy footstool.
The Lord shall send the rod of thy
strength out of Sion:
rule thou in the midst of thine enemies.
Thine is the foundation in the day of thy
power;
in the beauties of holiness
I have born thee from the womb before
the morning star.
The Lord hath sworn and will not
repent:
Thou art a priest for ever
after the order of Melchizedek.
The Lord at thy right hand has broken
kings in the day of his anger.

III. Motet:
Nigra sum sed formosa filia Jerusalem.
Ideo dilexit me Rex, et introduxit
in cubiculum suum et dixit mihi:
Surge, arnica mea, et veni.
lam hiems transiit, imber abiit et
recessit,
flores apparuerunt in terra nostra;
tempus putationis advenit.
He will judge the nations, he will fill
them with ruins:
he will break the heads in the populous
land.
He shall drink of the torrent on the way;
therefore he shall lift up his head.
Glory be to the Father. . .
Nigra sum
I am a black but beautiful daughter of
Jerusalem.
So the King loved me, and led me
into his chamber and said to me:
Arise, my love, and come away.
Now winter has passed, the rain has
gone
and flowers have appeared in our land;
the time of pruning has come.

IV. Psalm 112:
Laudate pueri Dominum,
laudate nomen Domini.
Sit nomen Domini benedictum,
ex hoc nunc et usque in saeculum.
A solis ortu usque ad occasum
laudabile nomen Domini.
Excelsus super omnes gentes Dominus,
et super coelos gloria ejus.
Quis sicut Dominus Deus noster,
qui in altis habitat et humilia
respicit in coelo et in terra?
Suscitans a terra inopem,
et de stercore erigens pauperem,
ut collocet eum cum principibus,
cum principibus populi sui.
Qui habitare facit sterilem in domo,
matrem filiorum laetantem.
Gloria Patri. . .
Laudate pueri
Praise the Lord, ye children,
praise the name of the Lord.
Blessed be the name of the Lord
from this time forth for evermore.
From sunrise to sunset
the Lord's name is worthy of praise.
The Lord is high above all nations,
and his glory above the heavens.
Who is like the Lord our God,
who dwells on high and looks down on
the humble things in heaven and earth?
He raises the helpless from the earth,
and lifts the poor man from the dung
heap,
to place him alongside princes,
with the princes of his people.
He makes a home for the barren woman,
a joyful mother of children.
Glory be to the Father. . .
V. Motet:
Pulchra es, arnica mea,
suavis et decora filia Jerusalem.
Pulchra es, arnica mea,
suavis et decora sicut Jerusalem,
terribilis sicut castrorum acies ordinata.
Averte oculos tuos a me,
quia ipsi me avolare fecerunt.
Pulchra es
You are beautiful, my love,
a sweet and comely daughter of
Jerusalem.
You are beautiful my love,
sweet and comely as Jerusalem,
terrible as the sharp lines of a military
camp.
Turn your eyes from me,
because they have put me to flight.

Laetatus sum in his, quae dicta sunt
mihi:

Stantes erant pedes nostri in atriis tuis,
Jerusalem.
Jerusalem, quae aedificatur ut civitas:
cujus participatio ejus in idipsum.
Illuc enim ascenderunt tribus,
tribus Domini: testimonium Israel
ad confitendum nomini Domini.
Quia illic sederunt sedes in judicio,

Rogate quae ad pacem sunt Jerusalem:
et abundantia diligentibus te.
Fiat pax in virtute tua:
et abundantia in turribus tuis.
Propter fratres meos et proximos meos,
loquebar pacem de te;
propter domum Domini Dei nostri,
quaesivi bona tibi.
Gloria Patri. . .
I was glad when they said unto me:
we shall go into the house of the Lord.
Our feet shall stand within thy gates,
O Jerusalem.
Jerusalem, which is built as a city
that is compact together.
For thither ascend the tribes,
the tribes of the Lord, to testify unto
Israel,
to give thanks to the name of the Lord.
For there are the seats of judgment,
the seats over the house of David.
pray for the peace of Jerusalem:
and may prosperity attend those who
love thee.
Peace be within thy strength,
and prosperity within thy towers.
For my brothers and my
sake,
1 will ask for peace for thee;
for the sake of the house of the Lord
our God
I have sought blessings for thee.
Glory be to the Father. . .

VIII. Psalm 126:
Nisi Dominus aedificaverit domum,
in vanum laboraverunt qui aedificant
earn.
Nisi Donimus custodierit civitatem,
frustra vigilavit qui custodit earn.
Vanum est vobis ante lucem surgere:
surgite postquam sederitis,
qui manducatis panem doloris.
Cum dederit dilectis suis somnum:
ecce haereditas Domini filii:
merces, fructus ventris.
Sicut sagittae in manu potentis:
ita filii excussorum.
Beatus vir qui implevit desiderium
suum
ex ipsis: non confundetur
cum loquetur inimicis suis in porta.
Gloria Patri.
Audi coelum verba mea,
plena desiderio

You have been blessed by the Lord,
O daughter,
for through you we have partaken of
the fruit of life.
Nisi Dominus
Except the Lord build the house,
they labour in vain that build it.
Except the Lord keep the city,
the watchman waketh but in vain.
It is vain for you to rise before dawn:
rise when you have sat down,
ye who eat the bread of sorrow,
when he has given sleep to those he
loves.
Behold, children are an inheritance of
the Lord,
a reward, the fruit of the womb.
As arrows in the hand of the mighty,
so are children of the vigorous.
Blessed is the man who has fulfilled his
longing
by them: he shall not be perplexed
when he speaks to his enemies at the
gate.
Glory be to the Father. . .
IX. Motet: Audi coelum
Hear, o heaven, my words,
full of desire
and suffused with joy.
I hear.
Die, quaeso, mihi: Quae est ista
quae consurgens ut aurora rutilat,
ut benedicam?
Dicam.
Die, nam ista pulchra ut luna,
electa ut sol, replet laetitia
terras, coelos, maria.
Maria.
Maria Virgo ilia dulcis,
praedicata de propheta Ezechiel
porta orientalis.
Talis.
Tell me, I pray: who is she
who rising like the dawn,
shines, that I may bless her?
I shall tell you.
Tell, for she is beautiful as the moon,
exquisite as the sun, which fills with joy
the earth, the heavens and the seas.
Mary.
Mary, that sweet Virgin
foretold by the prophet Ezechiel,
gate of the rising sun,
Such is she!
Ilia sacra et felix porta,
per quam mors fuit expulsa,
introducta autem vita.
Ita.
Quae semper tutum est medium
inter homines et Deum,
pro culpis remedium.
Medium.
Omnes. . .
Omnes hanc ergo sequamur,
quae cum gratia mereamur
vitam aeternam. Consequamur.
Sequamur.
Praestet nobis Deus,
Pater hoc et Filius
et Mater, cujus nomen invocamus
dulce miseris solamen.
Amen.
Benedicta es, Virgo Maria,
in saeculorum saecula.
that holy and happy gate
through which death was driven out,
but life brought in,
Even so!
who is always a sure mediator
between man and God,
a remedy for our sins.
A mediator.
All...
So let us all follow her
by whose grace we gain
Eternal life. Let us seek after her.
Let us follow.
May God grant us this,
the Father and the Son
and the Mother, on whose name we call,
sweet solace for the unhappy.
Amen.
Blessed art thou, Virgin Mary,
world without end.
Antiphon
Pulchra es et decora, filia Jerusalem, You are lovely and beauteous, O
daughter of Jerusalem,
terribilis ut castrorum acies ordinata. awe-inspiring as an army arrayed for
battle.
X. Psalm 147: Lauda, Jerusalem
Lauda, Jerusalem, Dominum:
lauda Deum tuum, Sion.
Quoniam confortavit seras portarum
tuarum:
benedixit filiis tuis in te.
Qui posuit fines tuos pacem:
et adipe frumenti satiat te.
Qui emittit eloquium suum terrae:
velociter currit sermo ejus.
Qui dat nivem sicut lanam:
nebulam sicut cinerem spargit.
Mittit cristallum suum sicut buccellas:
ante faciem frigoris ejus quis sustinebit?
Emittet verbum suum, et liquefaciet ea:
flabit spiritus ejus, et fluent aquae.
Qui annuntiat verbum suum Jacob:
justitias et judicia sua Israel.
Non fecit taliter omni nationi:
et judicia sua non manifestavit eis.
Gloria Patri. . .
Praise the Lord, O Jerusalem:
praise thy God, O Sion.
For he hath strengthened the bars of
your gates:
he hath blessed thy children within thee.
He maketh peace in thy borders:
and filleth thee with the finest of the
wheat.
He sendeth forth his commandment
upon earth:
his word runneth very swiftly.
He giveth snow like wool:
he scattereth the cloud like ashes.
He casteth forth his ice like morsels:
who will stand before his cold?
He will send out his word and melt
them:
he will cause his wind to blow and the
waters will flow.
He sheweth his word unto Jacob:
his statutes and judgments unto Israel.
He hath not dealt so with any nation:
and he has not shown his judgments to
them.
Glory be to the Father. . .

XL Sonata sopra "Sancta Maria,
ora pro nobis"
Sancta Maria, ora pro nobis. Holy Mary, pray for us.
Ave maris Stella,
Dei mater alma,
atque semper virgo,
felix coeli porta.
Sumens illud Ave
gabrielis ore,
funda nos in pace,
mutans Evae nomen.
Solve vincla reis,
profer lumen caecis,
mala nostra pelle,
bona cuncta posce.
Monstra te esse matrem:
sumat per te preces,
qui pro nobis natus,
tulit esse tuus.
Virgo singularis,
inter omnes mitis,
nos culpis solutos
mites fac et castos.
Vitam praesta puram,
iter para tutum,
ut videntes Jesum
semper collaetemur.
Sit laus Deo Patri,
summo Christo decus,
spiritui Sancto,
tribus honor unus. Amen
XII. Hymn: Ave maris Stella
Hail, star of the sea,
life-giving mother of God
and perpetual virgin,
happy gate of heaven.
Receiving that 'ave'
from the mouth of Gabriel,
keep us in peace,
reversing the name 'Eva.'
Loosen the chains from the guilty,
bring forth light to the blind,
drive out our ills,
ask for blessings for all.
Show yourself to be his mother:
may he receive through you our prayers
who, born for us,
deigned to be yours.
Peerless virgin,
gentle above all others,
when we are pardoned for our sins,
make us gentle and pure.
Grant us a pure life,
prepare a safe journey,
so that seeing Jesus
we may rejoice for ever.
Praise be to God the Father,
glory to Christ most high,
and to the Holy Spirit,
triple honour in one. Amen.
Antiphon
Virgo prudentissima, quo progrederis,
quasi aurora valde rutilans? Filia Sion,
tota formosa et suavis es, pulchra ut
luna,
electa ut sol.
O Virgin most wise, whither are you
advancing,
shining brightly like the dawn?
O daughter of Sion,
you are so beautiful and sweet, lovely as
the moon,
supreme as the sun.
XIII: Magnificat
1. Magnificat anima mea Dominum.
2. Et exultavit spiritus meus in Deo
salutari meo.
3. Quia respexit humilitatem ancillae
suae: ecce enim ex hoc beatam me
dicent omnes generationes.
4. Quia fecit mihi magna qui potens est:
et sanctum nomen ejus.
5. Et misericordia ejus a progenie
in progenies timentibus eum.
6. Fecit potentiam in brachio suo:
dispersit superbos mente cordis sui.
7. Deposuit potentes de sede
et exaltavit humiles.
8. Esurientes implevit bonis: et divites
dimisit inanes.
9. Suscepit Israel puerum suum,
recordatus misericordiae suae,
10. Sicut locutus est ad patres nostros,
Abraham et semini ejus in saecula.
11. Gloria Patri et Filio, et Spiritui
Sancto
12. Sicut erat in principio, et nunc et
semper, et in saecula saeculorum.
Amen.
1. My soul doth magnify the Lord.
2. And my spirit hath rejoiced in God
my saviour.
3. For he hath regarded the lowliness of
his handmaiden, for behold from
henceforth all generations shall call
me blessed.
4. For he that is mighty hath magnified
me, and holy is his name.
5. And his mercy is on them that fear
him throughout all generations.
6. He hath shewed strength with his
arm; he hath scattered the proud in
the imagination of their hearts.
7. He hath put down the mighty from
their seat and hath exalted the
humble and meek.
8. He hath filled the hungry with good
things and the rich he hath sent
empty away.
9. He remembering his mercy hath
holpen his servant Israel;
10. As he promised to our forefathers,
Abraham and his seed for ever.
11. Glory be to the Father, and to the
Son, and to the Holy Ghost.
12. As it was in the beginning, is now
and ever shall be, world without end.
Amen.

"Songs of Travel"
Texts by Robert Louis Stevenson (1850-1894)
The Vagabond
Give to me the life I love,
Let the lave go by me,
Give the jolly heaven above,
And the byway nigh me.
Bed in the bush with stars to see,
Bread I dip in the river -
There's the life for a man like me,
There's the life for ever.
Let the blow fall soon or late,
Let what will be o'er me;
Give the face of earth around,
And the road before me.
Wealth I seek not, hope nor love,
Nor a friend to know me;
All I seek, the heaven above,
And the road below me.
Or let autumn fall on me
Where afield I linger,
Silencing the bird on tree,
Biting the blue finger.
White as meal the frosty field -
Warm the fireside haven -
Not to autumn will I yield,
Not to winter even!
Let the blow fall soon or late,
Let what will be o'er me;
Give the face of earth around,
And the road before me.
Wealth I ask not, hope nor love,
Nor a friend to know me;
All I seek, the heaven above,
And the road below me.
Let Beauty awake
Let Beauty awake in the morn from
beautiful dreams,
Beauty awake from rest!
Let Beauty awake
For Beauty's sake
In the hour when the birds awake
in the brake
And the stars are bright in the west!
Let Beauty awake in the eve from the
slumber of day,
Awake in the crimson eve!
In the day's dusk end
When the shades ascend,
Let her wake to the kiss of a tender friend,
To render again and receive!

The Roadside Fire
I will make you brooches and toys for your delight
Of bird-song at morning and star-shine at night,
I will make a palace fit for you and me
Of green days in forests, and blue days at sea.
I will make my kitchen, and you shall keep your room,
Where white flows the river and bright blows the broom;
And you shall wash your linen and keep your body white
In rainfall at morning and dewfall at night.
And this shall be for music when no one else is near,
The fine song for singing, the rare song to hear!
That only I remember, that only you admire,
Of the broad road that stretches and the roadside fire.
Youth and Love
To the heart of youth the world is a highwayside.
Passing for ever, he fares; and on either hand,
Deep in the gardens golden pavilions hide,
Nestle in orchard bloom, and far on the level land
Call him with lighted lamp in the eventide.
Thick as stars at night when the moon is down,
Pleasures assail him. He to his nobler fate
Fares; and but waves a hand as he passes on,
Cries but a wayside word to her at the garden gate,
Sings but a boyish stave and his face is gone.
In Dreams
In dreams unhappy, I behold you stand
As heretofore:
The unremember'd tokens in your hand
Avail no more.
No more the morning glow, no more
the grace,
Enshrines, endears.
Cold beats the light of time upon your face
And shows your tears.
He came and went. Perchance you
wept awhile
And then forgot.
Ah me! but he that left you with a smile
Forgets you not.
The infinite shining heavens
The infinite shining heavens
Rose, and I saw in the night
Uncountable angel stars
Showering sorrow and light.
I saw them distant as heaven,
Dumb and shining and dead,
And the idle stars of the night
Were dearer to me than bread.
Night after night in my sorrow
The stars looked over the sea,
Till lo! I looked in the dusk
And a star had come down to me.
Whither Must I Wander?
Home no more home to me, whither must I wander?
Hunger my driver, I go where I must.
Cold blows the winter wind over hill and heather:
Thick drives the rain and my roof is in the dust.
Loved of wise men was the shade of my roof- tree,
The true word of welcome was spoken in the door -
Dear days of old with the faces in the firelight,
Kind folks of old, you come again no more.
Home was home then, my dear, full of kindly faces,
Home was home then, my dear, happy for the child.
Fire and the windows bright glittered on the moorland;
Song, tuneful song, built a palace in the wild.
Now when day dawns on the brow of the moorland,
Lone stands the house, and the chimney-stone is cold.
Lone let it stand, now the friends are all departed,
The kind hearts, the true hearts, that loved the place of old.
Spring shall come, come again, calling up the moorfowl,
Spring shall bring the sun and the rain, bring the bees and flowers;
Red shall the heather bloom over hill and valley,
Soft flow the stream through the even-flowing hours.
Fair the day shine as it shone on my childhood -
Fair shine the day on the house with open door;
Birds come and cry there and twitter in the chimney -
But I go for ever and come again no more.
Bright is the ring of words
Bright is the ring of words
When the right man rings them,
Fair the fall of songs
When the singer sings them,
Still they are carolled and said -
On wings they are carried -
After the singer is dead
And the maker buried.
Low as the singer lies
In the field of heather,
Songs of his fashion bring
The swains together.
And when the west is red
With the sunset embers,
The lover lingers and sings
And the maid remembers.
I have trod the upward and the downward slope
I have trod the upward and the downward slope;
I have endured and done in days before;
I have longed for all, and bid farewell to hope;
And I have lived and loved, and closed the door.
— Robert Louis Stevenson

Ye banks and braes (Traditional)
Ye banks and braes o' bonnie Doon,
How can ye bloom sae fair!
How can ye chant, ye little birds,
And I sae fu o' care!
Thou'll break my heart, thou bonnie bird
That sings upon the bough;
Thou minds me o' the happy days
When my fause Luve was true.
Thou'll break my heart, thou bonnie bird
That sings beside thy mate;
For sae I sat, and sae I sang,
And wist na o' my fate.
Aft hae I roved by bonnie Doon
To see the woodbine twine,
And ilka bird sang o' its love;
And sae did I o' mine.
Wi' lightsome heart I pud a rose
Frae aff its thorny tree;
And my fause luver staw the rose,
But left the thorn wi' me.
—Robert Burns (1759-1796)
Danny Boy (Traditional)
Oh Danny boy, the pipes, the pipes are calling
From glen to glen, and down the mountain side
The summer's gone, and all the flowers are dying,
Tis you, 'tis you must go and I must bide.
But come ye back when summer's in the meadow
Or when the valley's hushed and white with snow
Tis I'll be here in sunshine or in shadow
Oh Danny boy, oh Danny boy, I love you so.
And if you come, when all the flowers are dying
And I am dead, as dead I well may be,
You'll come and find the place where I am lying
And kneel and say an "Ave" there for me.
And I shall hear, tho' soft you tread above me,
And all my dreams will warm and sweeter be
If you'll not fail to tell me that you love me
I'll simply sleep in peace until you come to me.
Ar Hyd y Nos (Traditional)
Holl amrantau'r ser ddywedant,
Ar hyd y nos,
"Dyma'r ffordd i fro gogoniant,"
Ar hyd y nos.
All Through the Night
All the stars that shine are saying,
All through the night,
"Here's the way to glory, beaming"
All through the night.
Golau arall yw tywyllwch,
I arddangos gwir brydferthwch,
Teulu'r nefoedd mewn tawelwch,
Ar hyd y nos.
mor siriol gwena seren,
Ar hyd y nos,
1 oleuo'i chwaer ddaearen,
Ar hyd y nos.
Nos yw henaint pan ddaw cystudd,
Ond i harddu dyn a'i hwyr ddydd,
Rho'wn ein goleu gwan i'n gilydd,
Ar hyd y nos.
—John Ceiriog Hughes (1832-1887)
Darkness is but other lighting
To display true beauty shining,
Heaven s family peacefully sleeping
All through the night.
Oh so charming, stars are smiling,
All through the night,
Over earth their light is shining,
All through the night.
Darkness folds us in our suffering,
And adorns us in our aging,
Dimming lights, let us be sharing
All through the night.

My Little Welsh Home
I am dreaming of the mountains of my home
Of the mountains where in childhood I would roam
I have dream't 'neath summer skies where the Summer never dies
But my heart is in the mountains of my home
I can see the little homestead of the hill
I can hear the magic music of the rill
There is nothing to compare with the love that once was there
In that lonely little homestead on the hill
I can see the quiet churchyard down below
Where the mountain breezes wander to and fro
And when God my soul will keep it is there I want to sleep
With those dear old folks that loved me long ago

Flower Sunday
Where the flow 'rs and gray stones hide,
Sleep, my pearl, below
That no harm shall e'er betide thee
I and father know.
Litde graves are never lonely,
Angels guard their kin;
Sleep my child thyself there only,
Sleep, Goronwy Wyn.
Under that gray stone, Goronwy,
Slumber yet a while;

Leaving thee alone.
Strange that cradle hand of mother
Need not rock thee now;
Sleep until we meet each other
Sleep, and blest be thou.

Sleep
Come, sleep, and with thy sweet deceiving
Lock me in delight awhile;
Let some pleasing dream beguile
All my fancies, that from thence
I may feel an influence,
All my powers of care bereaving.
Tho' but a shadow, but a sliding,
Let me know some little joy.
We, that suffer long annoy,
Are contented with a thought
Thro' an idle fancy wrought:
O let my joys have some abiding.

Captain Stratton's Fancy
Oh, some are fond of red wine and some are fond of white,
And some are all for dancing by the pale moonlight,
But rum alone s the tipple and the heart's delight
Of the old, bold mate of Henry Morgan.
Oh, some are fond of Spanish wine and some are fond of French,
And some'll swallow tay and stuff fit only for a wench,
But I'm for right Jamaica till I roll beneath the bench,
Says the old, bold mate of Henry Morgan.
Oh, some are for the lily and some are for the rose,
But I am for the sugar cane that in Jamaica grows,
For it's that that makes the bonny drink to warm my copper nose,
Says the old, bold mate of Henry Morgan.
Oh, some are fond of fiddles and a song well sung,
And some are all for music for to lit upon the tongue,
But mouths were made for tankards and for sucking at the bung,
Says the old, bold mate of Henry Morgan.
Oh, some that's good and godly ones they hold that it's a sin
To troll the jolly bowl around and let the dollars spin,
But I'm for toleration and for drinking at an inn,
Says the old, bold mate of Henry Morgan.

Three Shakespeare Songs, Opus 6
Come away, death (from Twelfth Night)
Come away, come away, death,
And in sad cypress let me be laid;
Fly away, fly away, breath;
I am slain by a fair cruel maid.
My shroud of white, stuck all
with yew,
O prepare it!
My part of death, no one so true
Did share it.
Not a flower, not a flower sweet,
On my black coffin let there be strown;
Not a friend, not a friend greet
My poor corpse, where my bones shall be thrown:
A thousand, thousand sighs to save,
Lay me, O where
Sad true lover never find my grave,
To weep there!
Please turn the page quietly,

Oh mistress mine (from Twelfth Night)
O mistress mine, where are you roaming?
O stay and hear, your true love's coming
That can sing both high and low.
Trip no further, pretty sweeting;
Journeys end in lovers' meeting,
Ev'ry wise man's son doth know.
What is love? 'Tis not hereafter;
Present mirth hath present laughter;
What's to come is still unsure:
In delay there lies no plenty;
Then come kiss me, sweet and twenty;
Youth's a stuff will not endure.
Blow, blow, thou winter wind (from As You Like It)
Blow, blow, thou winter wind,
Thou art not so unkind
As man's ingratitude;
Thy tooth is not so keen
Because thou art not seen,
Although thy breath be rude.
Heigh ho! sing heigh ho! unto the green holly:
Most friendship is feigning, most loving mere folly:
Then, heigh ho! the holly!
This life is most jolly.
Freeze, freeze thou bitter sky,
Thou dost not bite so nigh
As benefits forgot:
Though thou the waters warp,
Thy sting is not so sharp
As friend remember'd not.
Heigh ho! sing heigh ho! unto the green holly:
Most friendship is feigning, most loving mere folly:
Then, heigh ho! the holly!
This life is most jolly.

BENJAMIN BRITTEN (1913-1976)
The foggy, foggy Dew
When I was a bachelor I lived all alone
And worked at the weaver's trade
And the only, only thing that I ever did wrong,
Was to woo a fair young maid.
I wooed her in the winter time, and in the summer too.
And the only, only thing I did that was wrong
Was to keep her from the foggy, foggy dew.
One night she came to my bedside when I lay fast asleep,
She laid her head upon my bed and she began to weep.
She sighed, she cried, she damn'd near died,
She said: "What shall I do?"
So I hauled her into bed and I covered up her head,
Just to keep her from the foggy, foggy dew.
Oh, I am a bachelor and I live with my son,
And we work at the weaver's trade.
And ev'ry single time that I look into his eyes,
He reminds me of the fair young maid.
He reminds me of the winter time, and of the summer too,
And of the many, many times that I held her in my arms,
Just to keep her from the foggy, foggy dew.

The Salley Gardens
It was down by the Salley gardens, my love and I did meet.
She crossed the Salley gardens with little snow-white feet.
She bid me take love easy, as the leaves grow on the tree,
But I was young and foolish, and with her did not agree.
In a field down by the river, my love and I did stand.
And on my leaning shoulder, she laid her snow-white hand.
She bid me take life easy, as the grass grows on the weirs,
But I was young and foolish, and now am full of tears.
Down by the Salley gardens, my love and I did meet.
She crossed the Salley gardens with little snow-white feet.
She bid me take love easy, as the leaves grow on the tree,
But I was young and foolish, and with her did not agree.
—William Butler Yeats (1865-1939)
Oliver Cromwell
Oliver Cromwell lay buried and dead,
Hee-haw, buried and dead,
There grew an old apple-tree over his head,
Hee-haw, over his head.
The apples were ripe and ready to fall,
Hee-haw, ready to fall,
There came an old woman to gather them all,
Hee-haw, gather them all.
Oliver rose and gave her a drop,
Hee-haw, gave her a drop,
Which made the old woman go hippety hop,
Hee-haw, hippety hop.
The saddle and bridle, they He on the shelf,
Hee-haw, lie on the shelf,
If you want any more you can sing it yourself,
Hee-haw, sing it yourself.

AARON COPLAND (1900-1990)
from Old American Songs
The Little Horses (Lullaby)
Hush you bye, don t you cry,
go to sleepy little baby.
When you wake, you shall have,
all the pretty little horses.
Black and bays, dapples and grays,
Coach and six- a little horses. . .
Hush you bye, don't you cry,
go to sleepy little baby.
When you wake, you'll have sweet cake,
and all the pretty little horses.
A brown and a gray, and a black and a bay,
and a coach and six-a little horses. . .
At the River (Hymn Tune)
Shall we gather by the river,
where bright angels feet have trod,
with its crystal tide forever
flowing by the throne of God.
Yes we'll gather by the river,
the beautiful, the beautiful river,
gather with the saints by the river
that flows by the throne of God.
Soon we'll reach the shining river,
soon our pilgrimage will cease,
soon our happy hearts will quiver
with the melody of peace.
Yes we'll gather by the river. . .
Ching-a-ring Chaw (Minstrel Song)
Ching-a-ring-a ring ching ching,
Ho-a ding-a ding kum larkee. . .
Brothers gather round,
listen to this story,
iDout the promised land,
an' the promised glory.
You don' need to fear,
if you have no money,
you don' need none there,
to buy you milk and honey.
There you'll ride in style,
coach with four white horses,
there the evenin' meal,
has one two three four courses.
Ching-a-ring-a ring. . .
Nights we all will dance,
to the harp and fiddle,
waltz and jig and prance,
"Cast off down the middle."
When the mornin' come,
all in grand and splendour,
stand out in the sun,
and hear the holy thunder.
Brothers hear me out,
the promised land's a-comin',
dance and sing and shout,
I hear them harps a-strummin'.
Ching-a-ring ching...

FREDERICO PAOLO TOSTI (1846-1916)
Sogno
Ho sognato che stavi a ginocchi
come un santo che prega il Signor,
mi guardavi nel fondo degl'occhi,
Sfavillava il tuo sguardo d'amor.
Tu parlavi e la voce sommessa
mi chiedea dolcemente merce.
Solo un guardo che fosse promessa
imploravi curvata al mio pie.
Io tacevo e coll'anima forte
il desio tenatore lotto.
Ho provato il martirio e la morte,
pur mi vinsi e ti dissi di no.
Ma il tuo labbro sfioro la mia faccia
e la forza del cor mi tradi.
Chiusi gli occhi, ti stesi le braccia,
ma sognavo e il bel sogno svani!
—Lorenzo Stecchetti (1845-1876)
Dream
I dreamed that you were kneeling
Like a saint praying to the Lord,
You looked deep into my eyes,
Your glance shone with love,
You were speaking and your soft voice
Gently asked me for pity.
Kneeling at my feet you begged
For only a look, as a promise.
I was silent and battled manfully
Against the tempting desire,
I suffered martyrdom and death,
Yet conquered myself and said no.
But your lips brushed my face
And the strength of my heart failed me.
I closed my eyes, opened my arms to you,
But I was dreaming, and the lovely
dream vanished!
Please turn the page quietly,
and only after the music has stopped.

La serenata
Vola, O serenata:
La mia diletta esola,
E, con la bella testa
Posa tra le lenzuola:
O serenata, vola.
Splende pura la luna:
L'alle il silenzio stende,
E dietro I veli dell'alcova bruna
La lampada s'accende:
Pura la luna splende.
Vola, O serenata, vola.
La mia diletta e sola,
Ma sorridendo ancor mezzo assonnata,
Torna fra le lenzuola:
O serenata, vola.
L'onda sogna su'l lido,
E'l vento su la fronda;
E abaci miei ricusa ancora un nido
La mia signora bionda. . .
—Giovanni Alfredo Cesareo (1861-1937)
Chanson de l'adieu
Partir c'est mourir un peu,
C'est mourir a ce qu'on aime;
On laisse un peu de soi-meme
En toute heure et dans tout lieu.
C'est toujours le deuil d'un voeu,
Le dernier vers d'un poeme;
Partir c'est mourir un peu
C'est mourir a ce qu'on aime
Et Ton part, et c'est un jeu
Et jusqu'a l'adieu supreme
C'est son ame que Ton seme
Que Ton seme en chaque adieu.
Partir, c'est mourir un peu,
Partir, c'est mourir un peu.
—Edmond Haraucort (1856-1942)
The Serenade
Fly, serenade:
My darling is alone,
And, laying down her beautiful head,
She rests between the sheets:
O serenade, fly.
The moon is shining clearly;
The silence of the night is spreading its
wings,
And behind the veils of the dark
chamber
The lamp is lighted;
The moon is shining clearly.
Fly, serenade.
My darling is alone,
But, still sleepy and smiling,
She goes back between the sheets:
O serenade, fly.
The wave dreams on the sandy beach,
The wind between the leafy branches,
And my fair lady
Still refuses all my kisses. . .
Song of Farewell
To part is to die a little,
To die to that which we love.
One leaves a little of one's self
In every hour and in every place.
It is always the mourning of a wish,
The last verse of a poem.
To part is to die a little,
To die to that which we love.
And one leaves, and it's a game,
And until the final farewell
With one's soul one makes
One's mark at each goodbye.
To part is to die a little,
To part is to die a little.

THE WALTER PISTON SOCIETY
Jean-Noel Tariot's musical heritage is impressive. His great-great grandfather,
great grandfather, and great uncle, Alexandre Tariot, were accomplished French
musicians and acquainted with the great composers of their time. Mr. Tariot and
his wife Mona felt compelled to create a lasting legacy at the Boston Symphony
Orchestra by endowing a French horn term-chair as a tribute to the music they
love so much. The Tariot's charitable gift annuity makes it possible to enjoy this
family legacy NOW, and will give them an income for life.

TANGLEWOOD
The Tanglewood Festival
In August 1934 a group of music-loving summer residents of the Berkshires organized a
series of three outdoor concerts at Interlaken, to be given by members of the New York
Philharmonic under the direction of Henry Hadley. The venture was so successful that the
promoters incorporated the Berkshire Symphonic Festival and repeated the experiment during
the next summer.
The Festival Committee then invited Serge Koussevitzky and the Boston Symphony
Orchestra to take part in the following year's concerts. The orchestra's Trustees accepted,
and on August 13, 1936, the Boston Symphony Orchestra gave its first concerts in the
Berkshires (at Holmwood, a former Vanderbilt estate, later the Center at Foxhollow). The
series again consisted of three concerts and was given under a large tent, drawing a total of
nearly 15,000 people.
In the winter of 1936 Mrs. Gorham Brooks and Miss Mary Aspinwall Tappan offered
Tanglewood, the Tappan family estate, with its buildings and 210 acres of lawns and mead-
ows, as a gift to Koussevitzky and the orchestra. The offer was gratefully accepted, and on
August 5, 1937, the festival's largest crowd to that time assembled under a tent for the first
Tanglewood concert, an all-Beethoven program.
At the all-Wagner concert that opened the 1937 festival's second weekend, rain and
thunder twice interrupted the Rienzi Overture and necessitated the omission altogether of
the "Forest Murmurs" from Siegfried, music too delicate to be heard through the downpour.
At the intermission, Miss Gertrude Robinson Smith, one of the festival's founders, made an
appeal to raise funds for the building of a permanent structure. The appeal was broadened
by means of a printed circular handed out at the two remaining concerts, and within a short
time enough money had been raised to begin active planning for a "music pavilion."
Eliel Saarinen, the eminent architect selected by Koussevitzky, proposed an elaborate
design that went far beyond the immediate needs of the festival and, more important, went
well beyond the budget of $100,000. His second, simplified plans were still too expensive; he
finally wrote that if the Trustees insisted on remaining within their budget, they would have
"just a shed," "which any builder could accomplish without the aid of an architect." The
Trustees then turned to Stockbridge engineer Joseph Franz to make further simplifications
in Saarinen's plans in
order to lower the cost.
The building he erected
was inaugurated on the
evening of August 4,
1938, when the first
concert of that year's
festival was given, and
remains, with modifica-
tions, to this day. It has
echoed with the music
of the Boston Sym-
phony Orchestra every
After the storm of August 12, 1937, which precipitated a fundraising summer since, except
drive for the construction of the Tanglewood Shed f or tne war vears 1942-
45, and has become almost a place of pilgrimage to millions of concertgoers. In 1959, as the
result of a collaboration between the acoustical consultant Bolt Beranek and Newman and
architect Eero Saarinen and Associates, the installation of the then-unique Edmund Hawes
Talbot Orchestra Canopy, along with other improvements, produced the Shed's present

world-famous acoustics. In 1988, on the occasion of its fiftieth anniversary, the Shed was
rededicated as "The Serge Koussevitzky Music Shed," recognizing the far-reaching vision of
the BSO's legendary music director.
In 1940, the Berkshire Music Center (now the Tanglewood Music Center) began its
operations. By 1941 the Theatre-Concert Hall, the Chamber Music Hall, and several small
studios were finished, and the festival had so expanded its activities and its reputation for
excellence that it attracted nearly 100,000 visitors.
With the Boston Symphony Orchestra's acquisition in 1986 of the Highwood estate
adjacent to Tanglewood, the stage was set for the expansion of Tanglewood's public grounds
by some 40%. A master plan developed by the Cambridge firm of Carr, Lynch, Hack and
Sandell to unite the Tanglewood and Highwood properties confirmed the feasibility of
using the newly acquired property as the site for a new concert hall to replace the outmod-
ed Theatre-Concert Hall (which was used continuously with only minor modifications
since 1941, and which with some modification has been used in recent years for the Tangle-
wood Music Center's opera productions), and for improved Tanglewood Music Center
facilities. Inaugurated on July 7, 1994, Seiji Ozawa Hall — designed by the architectural firm
William Rawn Associates of Boston in collaboration with acoustician R. Lawrence Kirke-
gaard Sc Associates of Downer's Grove, Illinois, and representing the first new concert facil-
ity to be constructed at Tanglewood in more than a half-century — now provides a modern
venue for TMC concerts, and for the varied recital and chamber music concerts offered by
the Boston Symphony Orchestra throughout the summer. Ozawa Hall with its attendant
buildings also serves as the focal point of the Tanglewood Music Center's Leonard Bernstein
Campus, as described below. Also at Tanglewood each summer, the Boston University
Tanglewood Institute sponsors a variety of programs that offer individual and ensemble
instruction to talented younger students, mostly of high school age.
Two "Special Focus" Exhibits at the Tanglewood Visitor Center
Celebrating Two Anniversaries at Tanglewood This Summer
Two "Special Focus" exhibits have been mounted by the BSO Archives at the Tangle-
wood Visitor Center this summer.
"John Williams and the BSO: A 25-Year Collaboration" cel-
ebrates Mr. Williams's 25-year relationship with the Boston
Symphony Orchestra. Mr. Williams was the nineteenth Con-
ductor of the Boston Pops from 1980 to 1993, then became
Laureate Conductor of the Boston Pops and Artist-in-Resi-
dence at Tanglewood. The exhibit features photographs and
other materials documenting this 25 -year association, including concert activities, tours,
recordings with the Boston Pops Orchestra, and the recordings he made of the original
film scores for Schindler's List and Saving Private Ryan conducting members of the BSO
in Symphony Hall. The photo here is of Mr. Williams backstage at Carnegie Hall on the
occasion of his debut as Boston Pops Conductor, on January 22, 1980 (photograph by
Peter Schaaf).
This year's second "Special Focus" exhibit, "A Room for Music: Seiji Ozawa Hall Turns
Ten!," celebrating the hall's tenth anniversary this summer,
focuses on the building and construction of Seiji Ozawa Hall.
Featuring photographs, construction plans, and other memo-
rabilia, this exhibit explores the hall's architectural design and
the festivities that opened this award-winning venue ten
years ago on July 7, 1994. The photo, from June 22, 1993,
shows a steel truss being lifted into place by crane (photo-
graph by BSO Life Trustee Dean Freed).
NATHANIEL HAWTHORNE REVISITED
This summer marks the bicentennial of Nathaniel Hawthorne's birth on July 4, 1804. The
local influence of Nathaniel Hawthorne — the author of Tanglewood Tales — is clearly linked
to Tanglewood: all who enter Tanglewood via the Lion Gate see the replica of the "little
red cottage" where the Hawthorne family lived from May 1850 until November 1851, and
where he wrote The House of
the Seven Gables. In the dis-
< KIHM| tance rises Monument Moun-
tain, where Hawthorne met
Herman Melville on a summer
outing in August 1850. Their
relationship inspired Melville's
literary ambitions, as reflected
in the epic scale of his master-
piece, Moby-Dick, dedicated to
Hawthorne "In Token of my
Admiration for his Genius."
Materials dating from
Nathaniel Hawthorne's stay
at the little red cottage are on
view in the Tanglewood Visitor
Center as part of the display documenting the early history of the Tappan family estate
(Tanglewood). The cottage was destroyed by fire in 1890. A replica duplicating the original
exterior was dedicated in July 1947. (The interior now provides classroom and studio space
for the Tanglewood Music Center.) The photo shows the 1947 dedication ceremony, with
Serge Koussevitzky seated second from left on the porch.
To commemorate the Hawthorne bicentennial, the Lenox Library has published Haw-
thorne Revisited, a collection of essays exploring this Berkshire literary legacy (available at
the library and in the Tanglewood shops). On Sunday morning, August 8, the meeting of
Hawthorne and Melville will be celebrated in a hike up Monument Mountain; anyone
interested should meet at 10 a.m. that day in the parking lot on Route 7 at the base of the
mountain. On Saturday, October 9, at 8 p.m., a gala celebration in Ozawa Hall sponsored
by Shakespeare & Company and hosted by Mike Wallace will feature Jane Fonda, Marisa
Tomei, and David Strathairn performing and reading from Hawthorne's works. For more
information on this event, call (413) 637-1199, ext. 113.
Today Tanglewood annually draws more than 300,000 visitors. Besides the concerts of
the Boston Symphony Orchestra, there are weekly chamber music concerts, Friday-evening
Prelude Concerts, Saturday-morning Open Rehearsals, the annual Festival of Contempo-
rary Music, and almost daily concerts by the gifted young musicians of the Tanglewood
Music Center. The Boston Pops Orchestra appears annually, and the season closes with a
weekend-long Jazz Festival. The season offers not only a vast quantity of music but also a
vast range of musical forms and styles, all of it presented with a regard for artistic excellence
that makes the festival unique.

The Tanglewood Music Center
Since its start as the Berkshire Music Center in 1940, the Tanglewood Music Center has
become one of the world's most influential centers for advanced musical study. Serge Kous-
sevitzky, the Boston Symphony Orchestra's music director from 1924 to 1949, founded the
Center with the intention of creating a premier music academy where, with the resources of
a great symphony orchestra at their disposal, young instrumentalists, vocalists, conductors,
and composers would sharpen their skills under the tutelage of Boston Symphony Orchestra
musicians and other specially invited artists.
The Music Center opened formally on July 8, 1940, with speeches and music. "If ever
there was a time to speak of music, it is now in the New World," said Koussevitzky, alluding
to the war then raging in Europe. Randall Thompson's Alleluia for unaccompanied chorus,
specially written for the ceremony, arrived less than an hour before the event began but made
such an impression that it continues to be performed at the opening ceremonies each sum-
mer. The TMC was Koussevitzky s pride and joy for the rest of his life. He assembled an
extraordinary faculty in composition, operatic and choral activities, and instrumental perform-
ance; he himself taught the most gifted conductors.
Koussevitzky continued to develop the Tanglewood Music Center until 1950, a year
after his retirement as the BSO's music director. Charles Munch, his successor in that posi-
tion, ran the Tanglewood Music Center from 1951 through 1962, working with Leonard
Bernstein and Aaron Copland to shape the school's programs. In 1963, new BSO Music
Director Erich Leinsdorf took over the school's reins, returning to Koussevitzky s hands-on
leadership approach while restoring a renewed emphasis on contemporary music. In 1970,
three years before his appointment as BSO music director, Seiji Ozawa became head of the
BSO's programs at Tanglewood, with Gunther Schuller leading the TMC and Leonard
Bernstein as general advisor. Leon Fleisher served as the TMC's Artistic Director from 1985
to 1997. In 1994, with the opening of Seiji Ozawa Hall, the TMC centralized its activities
on the Leonard Bernstein Campus, which also includes the Aaron Copland Library, cham-
ber music studios, administrative offices, and the Leonard Bernstein Performers Pavilion
adjacent to Ozawa Hall. In 1997, Ellen Highstein was appointed Director of the Tanglewood
Music Center, operating under the artistic supervision of Seiji Ozawa.
The Tanglewood Music Center Fellowship Program offers an intensive schedule of study
and performance for advanced musicians who have completed all or most of their formal
training. Some 150 young artists, all attending the TMC on full fellowships which under-
write the costs of tuition, room, and board, participate in a program including chamber and
orchestral music, opera and art song, and a strong emphasis on music of the 20th and 21st
centuries. This year's first TMC Orchestra concert is under the direction of Ingo Metz-
macher, who, in his first collaboration with the TMC, leads music of Dallapiccola (honoring
that composer's centennial), Schoenberg, and Berlioz. Also this summer the TMCO per-

forms under the batons of Kurt Masur, Rafael Friihbeck de Burgos, Robert Spano, and
James DePreist. In addition, Seiji Ozawa returns to the TMCO podium leading music of
Takemitsu and Verdi as part of the August 1 gala concert marking the 10th anniversary of
Seiji Ozawa Hall. Also in 2004, the Mark Morris Dance Group returns for its second an-
nual week-long collaboration with the TMC intertwining music and dance, culminating in
two joint MMDG/TMC performances of works choreographed by Mark Morris to music
of Vivaldi, Bartok and Bach. The TMC Opera Program returns this summer to the work
of Benjamin Britten, a composer historically associated with Serge Koussevitzky and the
Music Center — Britten's Shakespeare-inspired opera A Midsummer Night s Dream. Conduc-
tor Robert Spano once again directs the annual Festival of Contemporary Music, this year
featuring works of Bernard Rands (celebrating his 70th birthday year) and Elliott Carter
(marking his 95th birthday year), with works by the Finnish composers Salonen, Sallinen,
Saariaho, and Lindberg also highlighting the 2004 FCM programs. In another of the TMC's
new music programs, TMC composers will work throughout the summer with gifted young
film and video artists, creating short collaborative works to be presented during the Festival.
Ongoing TMC programs include seminars in the string quartet and piano quartet, and a
series of free concerts, the "Steinway Series" on Monday afternoons in the Chamber Music
Hall, highlighting works for solo piano and piano chamber music.
It would be impossible to list all of the distinguished musicians who have studied at the
Tanglewood Music Center. According to recent estimates, 20% of the members of American
symphony orchestras, and 30% of all first-chair players, studied at the TMC. Besides Seiji
Ozawa, prominent alumni of the Tanglewood Music Center include Claudio Abbado, Luciano
Berio, the late Leonard Bernstein, David Del Tredici, Christoph von Dohnanyi, the late
Jacob Druckman, Lukas Foss, John Harbison, Gilbert Kalish (who headed the TMC fac-
ulty for many years), Oliver Knussen, Lorin Maazel, Wynton Marsalis, Zubin Mehta,
Sherrill Milnes, Leontyne Price, Ned Rorem, Sanford Sylvan, Cheryl Studer, Michael
Tilson Thomas, Dawn Upshaw, Shirley Verrett, and David Zinman.
Today, alumni of the Tanglewood Music Center play a vital role in the musical life of the
nation. Tanglewood and the Tanglewood Music Center, projects with which Serge Kousse-
vitzky was involved until his death, have become a fitting shrine to his memory, a living
embodiment of the vital, humanistic tradition that was his legacy. At the same time, the
Tanglewood Music Center maintains its commitment to the future as one of the world's
most important training grounds for the composers, conductors, instrumentalists, and vocal-
ists of tomorrow.

SEIJIOZAWAHALL
Just (Some of) the Facts
Seiji Ozawa Hall's Florence Gould Auditorium is an 1,180-seat enclosed concert space
designed to accommodate a variety of performance, rehearsal, and recording activities at
Tanglewood, the BSO's summer home. Folding doors at the west end of the building permit
the Hall to open directly onto a lawn which provides space for at least 2,000 additional lis-
teners. With the doors closed, the Hall is also designed to serve as a recording facility.
The Leonard Bernstein Performers Pavilion adjacent to the main structure contains back-
of-house facilities encompassing a conductor's suite, dressing rooms, instrument storage
space, practice rooms, and a recording booth, all organized around a cloister-like court-
yard that can serve as a gathering place for the Tanglewood Music Center Fellows.

Reflections on Ozawa Hall — Ten Years Later
by William Rawn, FAIA
Seiji Ozawa Hall opened on July 7, 1994. William Rawn Associates, Architects, Inc., of Bos-
ton designed the building working closely with Larry Kirkegaard, Acoustician, and Theatre
Projects Consultants, Inc.. The national American Institute of Architects (AIA) awarded Seiji
Ozawa Hall an Honor Award for Architecture in 1995 and an Honor Award for Interiors in
2000, and the building was on the cover of Architecture" magazine in December 1994.
Here, William Rawn discusses some of the ideas influencing the design and reflects on the
ten years since the opening of Seiji Ozawa Hall in 1994.
Without question, the ten years since the opening of Ozawa Hall have been marked by
the special loyalty of concertgoers who attend so many performances in the Hall and by
the intensity and excellence of the performers — world-class musicians and Tanglewood
Music Center students — who have played there. For me, personally, the ten years has
been marked by the many generous comments made by friends and strangers alike.
Maybe there is an element of good New England manners here. (Who would strongly
criticize a building directly to its architect?) But the enthusiastic — and spontaneous —
response to the building has been a highlight of my professional career over the past
decade.
For an architect, each project is a hands-on learning experience. Only after develop-
ing a design, following it through working drawings, and then overseeing the construc-
tion can an architect begin to apply that learning to the next project. The act of building
is as critical as is the act of designing. This explains why architects tend to do their best
work in their sixties and seventies, the culmination of a career of constant learning.
Frank Lloyd Wright applied that learning to great buildings deep into his eighties, and
Frank Gehry is now at the top if his game well into his seventies — the opposite of
dancers and professional athletes.
The opportunity to design a building like Ozawa Hall so early in my architectural
career has had a profound impact on our practice. My life and the lives of my colleagues
have been changed by that experience. I know, too, that the buildings we are designing
now and in the future reflect the learning gained in the building of Ozawa Hall. For
this, I am deeply indebted to Tanglewood.
While I had never designed a concert hall when I began work at Tanglewood, to
compensate for that seeming inexperience, early in the project I spent three weeks in
Europe studying the spatial qualities of a dozen halls. The acoustics of a hall were obvi-
ously most important, and we were confident in our bringing Larry Kirkegaard to the
team as acoustician. But it seemed to me that the intimacy and intensity of a concert
experience were human qualities critical to the overall success of a hall. While in
Europe, I photographed; I measured; I attended concerts to get the "feel" of each hall
I visited. Larry Kirkegaard joined me at two of his favorite halls, the Concertgebouw in
Amsterdam and the Musikvereinssaal in Vienna, not only to show me first-hand the
reasons for their acoustic excellence, but also to share with me his subjective feelings for
both halls. Richard Pilbrow (Theatre Projects Consultants, Inc.) pushed us to maintain
intimacy by careful organizing of the seating, and his advice informed that trip.
What, then, explains the enthusiastic reaction of so many people to the Hall. I sus-
pect three things:
1. The acoustics are wonderful, if I can say so myself. Credit for that goes to Larry
Kirkegaard. From opening night (and Edward Rothstein's next day article in The
New York Times) to the recent book, Concert Halls and Opera Houses by Leo
Kfding with Commonwealth Worldwide gives you time to think,
time to work, time to relax . . .

Beranek, the acoustic accolades have been consistent. Beranek recently devel-
oped a rating system (based on interviews with conductors and performers)
which showed Ozawa Hall to be thirteenth-best in the world, fourth-best hall
in the United States, and one of the four best halls built in the last fifty years.
Larry Kirkegaard's vision and brilliance is palpable. His natural love of being the
teacher, his understanding of the necessity of teamwork between acoustician and
architect, were fundamental to the success of the building. Seiji Ozawa remarked
ten years ago that he thought the Hall sounded as good with the big barn doors
open as with the doors closed. High praise indeed for Larry's inventive solution
to a seemingly insoluble acoustic problem.
2. The Hall feels to be part of the land of the Stockbridge Bowl. Is it the curved
roof referencing the soft hills of the Berkshires? Is it the way the Hall nestles
into the landscape of the Highwood Estate, choosing not to be placed at the
promontory brow of the hill but choosing a site down the Hill? Of course,
buildings do not make such choices. Architects do. Bill Porter was Master Plan-
ner for the site and he strongly supported our decision to place the Hall in this
deferential position. We pointed out that all the music buildings at Tanglewood
(the Shed, the Theatre, and now Ozawa Hall) were placed well back from the
brow of the Hill. They defer to Tappan House and Highwood Manor House,
indeed letting them establish themselves as the Estate Houses on an estate open
to 15,000 people. The music buildings literally became the working "barns"
("sheds") of the estate.
3. The interior of the Hall, of course, gets much mention. In a way I always love it
when people — strangers and friends alike — engage me in a conversation about
the architectural intentions of the interior. A variety of theories about precedents
and sources abound. While wanting to acknowledge a range of sources for ideas
natural to any architect's work, nonetheless one idea has been constant from the
beginning. My sense of Tanglewood has always focused on the essential demo-
cratic nature of the place: that sense that it is open and accessible to anyone and
everyone. I always say: most of the week, whether it is a CEO of a Fortune 500
Company or a family visiting from 2000 miles away, everyone is welcome to
wander the "estate" and perhaps hear master classes taught by the world's lead-
ing musicians.
We wanted Ozawa Hall to share in that democratic spirit. My model was as
much a New England Meeting House as any other architectural form: the clear
and simple rectangular room, relatively unadorned, warm and welcoming, cap-
turing a democratic spirit. Attending a wedding in Strafford, Vermont, Meeting
House five years ago, I felt very strongly that I was in a space that became a
subliminal source of our architectural ideas for Ozawa Hall. Obviously there
are differences: the teak and Douglas fir; the joinery; the wood patterns which
combine the gridded formality of the balcony fronts with the informality of the
summer breezes wafting through those grilles; the fact that from almost any seat
you can see outside, not only to the sky but to the green of trees and lawn. All
these elements modulate the strict interpretation of Ozawa Hall as Meeting
House. But the spirit remains. To see how audience and performers react to the
Hall, reaffirms this special democratic — and perhaps very American — spirit of
the place.
What I love today is what has happened in the Hall and how people have used the
Hall in ways almost unimaginable. The way people congregate in the arcades at inter-
mission, catching up with their friends, gazing quietly at the landscape; the way the
Tanglewood Music Center (TMC) concerts have become so popular with visitors and
cognoscenti alike (remember how we worried about small audiences for TMC recitals
and how we organized the space so that it could feel "full" even with a small audience);
how the Hall accommodates the inventions of the Contemporary Music Festival, or,
more recently, the never-imagined inventions of a Mark Morris dance performance.
This sense of a living and growing Hall, always expanding its vision, always surprising,
is special.
There is a saying in the law that "hard cases can make bad law." In a similar but
more positive vein, the experience at Ozawa Hall has proved to me that a supportive
and collaborative client makes great buildings. And here all the credit goes to the BSO
organization. George Kidder, then President, asked Dean Freed (the BSO Trustee who
chaired the BSO's Building and Grounds Committee at that time; now a BSO Life
Trustee), the late BSO Overseer Haskell Gordon, and Dan Gustin (at that time the
BSO s Manager of Tanglewood and BSO Assistant Managing Director) to be the three-
person committee directing me, my colleagues Alan Joslin and Clifford Gayley, and
John Fish of Suffolk Construction Company. In addition, Kidder asked Robert Campbell
to be architectural adviser to that committee. The four-member BSO group (which
sadly was reduced to three by Haskell's untimely death halfway through the project)
brought a spirit of teamwork that inspired us, pushed us, nurtured us. That collaborative
spirit — call it the architectural equivalent of musical ensemble — is celebrated by this
building.
To the BSO, to all the musicians who have performed there, and to the audiences
who have supported the Hall for the past ten years, I offer my deepest thanks.
In the past decade, William Rawn's architectural work with concert halls and theaters has
expanded considerably. Both the Sorenson Theater at Babson College and the Koka Booth
Amphitheatre in Cary, North Carolina, won design awards from the United States Institute for
Theatre Technology. The Strathmore Concert Hall in Bethesda, MD (a 2,000-seat enclosed
concert hall serving as the second home for the Baltimore Symphony Orchestra) and the Wil-
liams College Class of '62 Center for Theatre and Dance (with three separate theater venues)
will open in the spring of 2005. William Rawn Associates, Architects, also has projects on a
number of important college and university campuses nationwide, as well as three large-scale
public projects under design — the United States Courthouse, Cedar Rapids, IA; the Cambridge
(MA) Public Library, and the Green Music Center at Sonoma State University, CA.

Creating a "New" Tanglewood
by Robert Campbell
Robert Campbell, architectural critic for The Boston Globe, was Architectural Advisor to the
BSOs Design Committee for the building ofSeiji Ozawa Hall. He originally wrote this essay
for the souvenir book A Room For Music" produced in conjunction with the Hall's opening
in 1994.
It began with the land. In December 1986 the size of Tanglewood suddenly and unex-
pectedly doubled, with the acquisition, from the Mason Harding family, of the High-
wood estate next door.
You couldn't walk out onto this new piece of land without noticing a long, gentle
slope of field, back behind the house, that terminated in a natural backdrop of pines.
You couldn't help feeling that Providence must have created that slope in the hope that
someone, some day, would sit there listening to music, as it drifted out from somewhere
among the pines. Even before Highwood became available, the decision had already
been made to build a new concert hall at Tanglewood. The old Theatre-Concert Hall,
across the lawn from the Koussevitzky Music Shed, was becoming derelict and inade-
quate. A preliminary design for a new concert hall was actually created by another
architect. When Highwood became available all this work came to a screeching halt.
The BSO realized, at once, that it needed professional help to assess the potential of the
new property. It hired the nationally known Cambridge firm of Carr, Lynch, Hack &
Sandell as site planners. Bill Porter and Catherine Verhulst of that office took charge of
the job. They quickly confirmed everyone's early intuition: the grassy slope at Highwood
was the right place for the new concert hall.
Porter and Verhulst pointed out other things, too. They noticed that a single unbro-
ken ridge of lawn extended from the old Tanglewood property right through the new
estate, all of it with a view of the Stockbridge Bowl to the south. They called this ridge
the "performance plateau" and conceived it as a means of uniting the old campus with
the new. They noticed that if the new concert hall were placed down the slope from this
plateau, it would stand in the same relation to Highwood Manor House as the Shed
does to the Tanglewood Manor House. There would be a sort of visual rhyme: Tangle-
wood Manor and its Shed, Highwood Manor and its concert hall. The new estate would
immediately feel like Tanglewood.
Porter and Verhulst did many other things. They surveyed the property and declared
most of it a protected wedand. With what remained, besides the site for the concert hall,
they created a new string of roads and parking lots, carefully nestled among the existing
woodlands, to relieve pressure on the old traffic patterns. They renovated the former
carriage barn into offices and studios for some of Tanglewood's staff and faculty. They
removed the Box Lot parking from the performance plateau and raised the grade of this
part of the lawn by several feet, using material excavated for the new concert hall, in
order to improve views into the shed. They developed a landscape plan for all of Tangle-
wood, new and old. And they found locations for, and then designed, new gates, rest
rooms, utilities, practice studios, snack booths, ticket booths, paths, plantings, a new gift
shop, a new lawn cafe, and much else that was needed to transform the Highwood es-
tate into a true working part of Tanglewood.
But the centerpiece of the new Tanglewood would be, of course, the new concert
hall. Because of the new site, it was decided to make a fresh start in planning for this
facility. Several nationally known architects were interviewed before the selection of a
relative newcomer, William Rawn of Boston, as the designer. Rawn impressed the selec-
tion committee by the time and care he devoted to visiting and studying Tanglewood,
11
and especially by the verbal eloquence with which he was able to invoke Tanglewood's
essential magic.
Endless debates ensued. How many seats should the new hall have? Twelve hundred,
give or take, it was finally decided. Where, precisely, should it stand? Rawn persuaded
everyone it should be pushed far enough up the slope so as not to feel remote. Should
it, like its predecessor, serve for both opera and concerts? No, it was determined: Now
that it would be possible to preserve the old Theatre-Concert Hall, it made better sense
to convert the older building for opera in the future.
But the critical issue of the debate was over a different issue. Should the new hall be
suitable for recording purposes? If so, it would have to be a much heavier, much more
solid acoustic shell than anything else at Tanglewood. It would be a new and different
kind of building altogether, and a costlier one too. The decision eventually fell in favor
of recording, and the building began, in Rawn's office, to assume its present shape.
It was exciting to watch the hall as it evolved over time in a long series of discussions,
drawings, and models. Two BSO Board members, Dean Freed and the late Haskell
Gordon, participated in virtually every meeting and contributed a great deal to the
shaping of the hall. So did the BSO's Tanglewood Manager Dan Gustin and Tangle-
wood Music Center Administrator Richard Ortner, among many others. Rawn traveled
through Europe to look at famous halls. He returned with a determination to create not
an auditorium, in which the performers on the stage are quite separate from the audi-
ence, but rather a more congenial, more sociable space in which the performers and the
audience would gather together as if in a large room. The audience would sit on three
sides, and up on balconies too, so that its members could look across at one another,
enjoying the ritual pleasure of assembling. They would sit in informal chairs, as if on a
Shaker porch. A big opening at the rear would open to the sloping lawn, in the Tangle-
wood tradition, where hundreds could sit and see and hear. Above this opening, there
would be a musician's gallery, a place for a fanfare before the performance.
Too often, when an architect and an acoustician collaborate, one or the other domi-
nates. In the case of Seiji Ozawa Hall something very different occurred. Rawn and his

acoustician, Lawrence Kirkegaard — himself trained as an architect — developed a give-
and-take working relationship in which each seemed to be trying to optimize the other's
goals. The building acquired the massive walls and ceiling that Kirkegaard needed to
reflect the bass notes. But it also acquired a remarkable sense of light and air. Glass-
block windows served to contain the sound, while simultaneously permitting views out
to the sky. Broken-up surfaces of wall and ceiling, necessary for blending and dispersing
the sound, took the form of handsome architectural coffers, bays, and corrugations.
As it finally took form, and as it now has been built, Seiji Ozawa Hall is a building
with an exterior that is a reddish blend of several shades of brick. The brick isn't the
usual machine-cut type but a more irregular, richly textured variety made by casting
each brick separately. It is trimmed in red sandstone imported from India, with Alaskan
yellow cedar at the exterior galleries. The round vaulted roof is lead-coated copper. The
overall impression is of a building that looks both durable and purposeful, commanding
its site without looking in any way grand. It is angled slightly toward the Highwood
manor house — an angle, as it happens, that is identical with that of the Shed. Connected
with it, at the rear, is a smaller pavilion for the musicians, framed and surfaced in wood,
where dressing and practice rooms ring four sides of an interior courtyard with a con-
tinuous porch for informal socializing. The musicians' pavilion is like a tugboat pushing
the liner of Ozawa Hall. Together, the two buildings share a modest entry court.
Indoors, Seiji Ozawa Hall is made of stucco walls painted a warm off-white. Two
tiers of balcony line three sides, faced with railings in teak. The ceiling is of pre-cast
concrete coffers whose natural color is the same as that of the walls. Above the ceiling,
beneath the copper vault, is the mechanical room, with fans for air changes and modest
air-conditioning of the stage and its instruments. On the stage, the musicians sit on a
stepped terrace floor, the elements of which can be telescoped back beneath one another
when a flat floor is needed. The terrace is Kirkegaard's invention and allows the orches-
tra members to be easily visible to one another and to the audience.
Behind the stage is a balcony for choruses. If desired, the hall can be reversed for
intimate performances, in which case this balcony becomes seating for a small audience,
and the musician performs against a temporary movable backdrop. Invisible behind all
this, within the walls and above the ceiling, is the structural skeleton of steel columns,
beams, and trusses.
Seen purely as architecture, Ozawa Hall is hard to categorize simply. Architect Rawn
has little patience with passing fads or styles, but he does possess a strong urge to accom-
modate new buildings within the traditions of the past. Ozawa Hall's interior is a tradi-
tional shoebox shape, like Symphony Hall in Boston. Details like the coffered ceiling
and gridded balcony rails can't exactly be called ornamental, but they do embody a
memory, simplified as befits a country setting, of the gilded and sculptured interiors of
the past. Outdoors, the wood galleries recall the long lazy porches of resorts and summer
camps, and the big brick shape suggests the great rural mills of New England. Taken as
a whole, Seiji Ozawa Hall reminds this writer of only one other building, a personal
favorite, the tiny but monumental church of Santa Maria dei Miracoli in Venice, another
powerful, round-vaulted, self-confident shape.
Summer has come to Tanglewood now. The leaves are on the trees and the breeze
drifts cool off the Stockbridge Bowl. The unsuspecting visitor will arrive, unaware that
the beloved Tanglewood is, suddenly, twice as big, twice as wonderful. It will be as if
you sat down to a small-screen black and white movie, only to watch it explode into
wide-screen color. On that new and larger screen, Seiji Ozawa Hall takes its place as the
central figure in the newest act of the ever-unfolding drama that is Tanglewood.

SEIJI OZAWA HALL, 1994-2003
A Concise Performance History of the BSO's Recital Series
In addition to the concerts presented each summer by the Tanglewood Music Center,
the Boston University Tanglewood Institute, and the Boston Symphony Chamber
Players, as well as the annual Festival of Contemporary Music, and the regular Friday-
night Prelude Concerts performed by members of the BSO, frequent guest artists, and
the Tanglewood Festival Chorus, the following recitalists and ensembles have been fea-
tured in the BSO's weeknight (and occasional Sunday- night) recital series in Florence
Gould Auditorium during Ozawa Hall's first ten years.
Seiji Ozawa Hall also serves as the primary venue for Tanglewood's annual Jazz
Festival each Labor Day Weekend (see page 21); as a recording venue; and as a venue
for such important Berkshire community functions as graduation ceremonies, fund-
raising events, and concerts by local ensembles.

NOTES ON THE PROGRAM
An unbridgeable gap may seem to separate composers of program music, with their lit-
erary-poetic mindset, from avant-garde composers, whose capacity for abstract intellec-
tion drives them to technical innovation. Yet tonight's concert presents three scores in
which leading avant-gardists professed programmatic aims. In all three, programmatic
content created heightened expressivity without compromising modernist structural fea-
tures.
"Read Shakespeare's Tempest" said Ludwig van Beethoven (1770-1827) when asked
to explain the "meaning" of his D minor piano sonata. Ironically, the two works do not
have much in common — Beethoven was presumably not very familiar with Shakespeare,
and his sonata, unlike the play, is by no means a comedy. Yet the composer's remark
23
confirms that storm-imagery is congruent with the mental atmosphere of this extraordi-
nary music: while the score may not depict Shakespeare's Tempest, it is, certifiably, Bee-
thoven's Tempest.
Apparently completed in early 1802, the D minor sonata,
like the other two sonatas of Opus 31, gives evidence of Bee-
thoven's intention to "strike out on a new road." Remarkable
in the opening movement is Beethoven's manner of integrat-
ing the ominous slow introduction with the roiling main Alle-
gro. The introduction has not only a formal function, but nar-
rative thrust as well, first providing foretastes of two impor-
tant themes, then catapulting the listener into the drama. The
result is that whenever the low-rolled-chord motif of the open-
ing returns, another outburst of the Allegro's bass-vs. -treble
dialogue-theme seems imminent. In the recapitulation, where a verbatim repetition of
the no-longer-surprising opening would have been ineffective, Beethoven provides a
new element — a plaintive recitative, rendered mysterious with an unusual pedal-effect —
then approaches the Allegro by a new avenue.
The lyric Adagio begins with a low rolled chord (a unifying allusion to the first move-

ment) and continues with another bass-vs. -treble dialogue; hints of thunder accompany
an eloquent bridge to a tender cantabile. There is no development, and the main theme
is bedecked with richly colored arpeggios on its return. The Allegretto finale has its tem-
pestuous moments but is largely a subtly obsessive study in what might best be termed
an inexorably gnawing Angst.
Elliott Carter (b.1908) began as a middle-of-the-road composer of Americana. In
the late 1940s, however, his lively mind devised lines of experiment involving rhythm
("metrical modulation"), interval-generated melodizing, and
overarching structural "plotting." Subsequently, such challeng-
ing, pathbreaking scores as the Second String Quartet (1959),
the Piano Concerto (1967), and the Symphony for Three
Orchestras (1977) prompted their admirers to revere Carter
as America's foremost avant-gardist.
In a singular late- 1970s initiative, four pianists who cham-
pioned modern music — Paul Jacobs, Gilbert Kalish, Ursula
Oppens, and Charles Rosen — banded together to commission
a major keyboard work from Carter. The result, written in
1980, was the twenty-minute-long Night Fantasies, which
Rosen hails as "perhaps the most extraordinary large keyboard work written since the
death of Ravel."
Carter has provided an invaluable program note:
Night Fantasies is a piano piece of continuously changing moods, suggesting the
fleeting thoughts and feelings that pass through the mind during a period of wake-
fulness at night. The quiet nocturnal evocation that begins it and returns occasional-
ly is suddenly broken by a flighty series of short phrases that emerge and disappear.
This episode is followed by many others of contrasting characters and lengths that
sometimes break in abruptly, and at other times, develop smoothly out of what has
gone before. The work culminates in a loud, obsessive, periodic repetition of an
emphatic chord that, as it dies away, brings the work to its conclusion.
In this score, I wanted to capture the fanciful, changeable quality of our inner life
at a time when it is not dominated by strong, directive intentions of desires — to cap-
ture the poetic moodiness that, in an earlier romantic context, I enjoy in works of
Robert Schumann like Kreisleriana, Carnaval, and Davidsbundlertanze.
Surely Charles Ives's Piano Sonata No. 2, subtitled Concord Mass., 1845, is the only
score ever prefaced by its composer with an eighty-page book — an effort entitled Essays
before a Sonata. That Ives (1874-1954) provided this elaborate explication indicates not
r"*^"^^BB I only how comprehensively he believed the score represented
his artistic aspirations, but also how crucial he deemed its
message — that the commercialized music and the industrial-
ized imperial America of his time sorely needed the self-
reliant spiritual qualities exemplified by the Concord transcen-
dentalists of a purer and more innocent age.
A dynamic insurance executive by day, Ives worked no
less diligently as an uncompromising modernist composer by
night, pioneering many techniques used by later composers
in scores that baffled and outraged establishment musicians.
Around 1909 he projected a series of overtures portraying lit-
erary figures (he had already essayed an Alcotts Overture in 1902-04 and an Emerson
25
Concerto in 1907). The Robert Browning Overture reached fruition in 1911, but his
Emerson and Hawthorne sketches seemed increasingly to demand solo piano or multi-
ple-piano treatment. In 1911-12 he reworked a welter of these materials into a piano
sonata, the four movements of which evoked, respectively, Emerson, Hawthorne, the
Alcotts, and Thoreau. Sporadic revisions followed, and it was not until 1915 that the
piece reached completion. Published in 1921 but long ignored by pianists, the Concord
Sonata received its premiere on January 20, 1939, performed by John Kirkpatrick.
Although modernistic dissonances, rhythmic conundrums, and collagistic superim-
positions abound in the score, its expressive aesthetic is that of high Romanticism.
Cyclic materials are in evidence (Ives admired the probity of Cesar Franck), particularly
the four-note motif from Beethoven's Fifth Symphony, which thunders in the bass near
the beginning, and engenders a melody that is prominent throughout movements I, III
and IV. The opening Emerson movement is replete with grandiose proclamation and
struggle. In the ensuing scherzo, Ives suggests "some of [Hawthorne's] wilder, fantastical
adventures into the half-childlike, half fairylike phantasmal realms . . . the little demons
dancing around his pipe bowl... the old hymn tune that haunts the church and sings
only to those in the churchyard, to protect them from secular noises, as when the circus
parade comes down Main Street "Tone-clusters in this movement require the use of
a board.
The peaceful Alcotts movement is a consonant, unabashedly sentimental hymn to
"the commonplace beauty" of "that home under the elms... the little old spinet piano
. . .on which Beth played the old Scotch airs and played at the Fifth Symphony. . .a con-
viction in the power of the common soul." Crucial in the pastoral, unexpectedly tranquil
Thoreau finale are recurrences of an oracular chorale-like melody heard over a reiterated
three-note motif deep in the bass. Eventually "the poet's flute is heard out over [Walden]
pond."

GUEST ARTISTS
Pierre-Laurent Aimard
Pierre-Laurent Aimard won first prize in the 1973 Messiaen Competition
and has been associated with that composer's music ever since. He was
appointed at age nineteen by Pierre Boulez to become the Ensemble Inter-
Contemporain's solo pianist, and has since the mid-1980s collaborated
closely with composer Gyorgy Ligeti, recording Ligeti's complete piano
works and being the dedicatee of several of his piano etudes. Pierre-Laurent
Aimard is without doubt a key figure in the new music world, but it has
always been a driving force in Mr. Aimard's professional musical life to
explore as broad a range as possible of music from different ages and sources, striving to illu-
minate the importance of historical, musical, and cultural contexts as well as influences among
composers both within and between generations and centuries. Through his teaching work at
the Paris Conservatoire and at the Hochschule in Cologne, as well as through an interna-
tional program of concert/lectures (an example being, in 1994-95, a series of eight concert/
lectures in Lyon and Paris presenting a panorama of the piano in the twentieth century), he
sheds a personal light on music of the past, present, and future. Born in Lyon, France, in 1957,
Pierre-Laurent Aimard studied at the Paris Conservatoire, where he won four first prizes. He
worked with Yvonne Loriod and then Maria Curcio. Now Pierre-Laurent Aimard performs
throughout the world each season with the most eminent orchestras and conductors, as well
as in recital and chamber music programs in the most prestigious venues. His much-awaited
debut recital at Carnegie Hall took place in December 2001 to exceptional acclaim, and he is
regularly invited to such festivals as Edinburgh, Salzburg, Lucerne, Tanglewood, and the BBC
Proms. He also pursues a number of fascinating chamber music projects each year with such
partners as Jean-Guihen Queyras, Joseph Silverstein, and Tabea Zimmermann. Pierre-Laurent
Aimard has recorded for Deutsche Grammophon, Sony, Erato, Wergo, and Lyrinx, among
others, and continues to create and record for the television station Arte a series of films
focusing on great composers of the twentieth century. The first film in this series, featuring
Pierre Boulez, was a renowned success. In recent years he has recorded significantly for Tel-
dec/Warner Classics, including acclaimed performances of Messiaen's Vingt Regards sur V en-
fant-] esus and Turangalila-symphonie, the complete Beethoven piano concertos with the
Chamber Orchestra of Europe and Nikolaus Harnoncourt, and a live disc of his Carnegie
Hall recital. Releases in 2003-04 include recordings of Debussy, Ives, and Dvorak.

NOTES ON THE PROGRAM
Franz Joseph Haydn (1732-1809)
Symphony No. 1 in D
Symphony No. 6 in D, Le Matin
After an adolescence spent comfortably as a choirboy at St. Stephen's Church in
Vienna, in 1750 eighteen-year old Josef Haydn found himself out on the street, "forced
to eke out a wretched existence by teaching young people." Yet Haydn's dire circum-
28
stances would not last long, owing to the friendships that circumstance would soon
afford him. One of his neighbors in Vienna turned out to be the renowned librettist
Pietro Metastasio, who introduced him to the composer Niccolo Popporo, under whose
guidance he seems to have honed his skills. In a classic case of fortuitous networking,
through these men (and several other related contacts) Haydn would eventually find his
entrance into the patronage system that would sustain him for
most of his career and help make him the most celebrated
composer of his day.
In 1757 Haydn received his first appointment, as the music
director for Count Karl Joseph Franz Morzin. It seems fitting
that the true beginning of his life as a professional composer
coincides with the composition of his earliest symphonies; as
he wrote symphonies more steadily and profusely than any
other musical genre, his symphonic output indeed seems to
chronicle his entire career. Haydn himself, however, cannot
have had a sense of this symbolic beginning — he probably
composed his first symphony simply because it was asked of him. As with any other
composer in a similar situation, the whims of his employer often determined the nature
of his compositions.
Symphony No. 1 may actually be Haydn's first symphony, despite the often-faulty
numbering system established by his publishers (for example, Symphony No. 72 should
more likely be No. 32 or even 22). The work exhibits much that is typical of the nascent
stages of the genre. It is cast in the three-movement scheme (fast-slow-fast) borrowed
from the Italian opera sinfonie (overtures), progenitors of the symphony. The orchestra
contains only strings, horns, and oboe, plus a bassoon as part of the basso continuo (a
vestige of the Baroque era). The winds sit out the slow movement; and the first move-
ment begins with the steady crescendo and rising pitch usually associated with the
Mannheim Orchestra and Johann Stamitz, often cited as the "originators" of the sym-
phonic genre.
The length and form of the present symphony may strike the listener as quite com-
pact (like a "mini"-symphony) when compared with the mature works of the great com-
posers of the nineteenth century and beyond. But the transparent textures, undemand-
ing harmonies, and economical, motivically based melodies are precisely what were
demanded by the tastes of the day, when music was valued as light entertainment in a
reaction against the complex, ornamented style of the Baroque.
After the profligate Count Morzin was forced to dissolve his musical ensembles,
Haydn was appointed assistant Kapellmeister at the country estate of Prince Paul Anton
Esterhazy (the first of the Esterhazys Haydn would serve throughout his long association
with that family). The first three symphonies he composed in this new position would
be a set: Nos. 6, Le Matin ("Morning"); 7, Le Midi ("Noon"), and 8, Le Soir ("Evening") —
all among the select number of Haydn's hundred-odd symphonies that bear authentic
programmatic titles assigned by the composer himself. Haydn's "artistic vision" was
again tailored to his circumstances, particularly the tastes of his benefactor, who appears
to have been particularly enamored of concerti grossi in an Italianate style. As a result,
Haydn's new symphonies featured many extensive and difficult solo passages, a luxury
afforded him by the wealth of his new employer, who could retain more musicians at a
higher level of skill.
These symphonies look backward to the Baroque to a greater degree than Symphony
No. 1, a reminder that lines between stylistic eras are not so easily drawn. Neither is the
29
developmental stage of the symphonic genre clear-cut — in these works, Haydn's ap-
proach to the orchestra seems to defy the very appellation "symphony." The trilogy is an
amalgam of Classical phrase structure and forms, Baroque concerto style, wind writing
culled from Haydn's experience with divertimenti, and other devices incongruent with
our modern notion of the genre, which actually derives largely from Haydn's later work.
Symphony No. 6, Le Matin, opens with a slow introduction, generally acknowledged
to depict a sunrise in its gradual layering effect, with dotted-rhythms that evoke the
Baroque French ouverture style. Once the Allegro is underway, though, the movement
reveals itself to be cast in the balanced phrases and sonata form typical of the Classical
era. Haydn showcases the oboes, horns, and principally the flute, whose reveille-Mke,
melody suggests the industrious stirrings typical of morning hours.
Enjoying a respite, the winds sit out the slow movement, while the violin and cello
assume a featured role, trading fluent triplet figures and comprising a concertino to the
remaining strings' ripieno. Haydn includes a minuet in the symphony, a practice not yet
standard at the time (compare with Symphony No. 1). Here the flutes again come to
prominence, along with some more original choices for concertante treatment: the viola,
cellos, and bassoon (an instrument mostly reserved for reinforcing the basso continuo in
orchestration of the time) act as soloists in the Trio section, which suggests the Baroque
in its ornate, sequence-driven counterpoint. The finale is again dominated by the violin,
cello, and flute.
Richard Strauss (1864-1949)
Ein Heldenleben {A Hews Life), Tone poem, Opus 40
What audiences have come to recognize as Beethoven's "heroic" style is more a product
of the ways in which the Beethoven legend has been constructed than any conscious
effort on the composer's part. Nevertheless, many 19th-century composers assumed the
role of the artist-hero that they perceived Beethoven to have established. Perhaps none
was more blatant in this than Richard Strauss, who composed his tone poem Ein Helden-
leben ("A Hero's Life") as a replacement of sorts for Beethoven's Third Symphony, the
Eroica — the locus classicus of Beethoven's heroic mode — which in his mind was too little
performed. Strauss even sets his work in the same key, E-flat major.
Beethoven came to be regarded as the hero of the Eroica throughout the course of
the work's reception; the composer originally had Napoleon in mind as the hero. Strauss,
however, wasn't shy about proclaiming himself to be the hero of his work from the out-

set: "I do not see why I should not compose a symphony about myself. I find myself
quite as interesting as Napoleon or Alexander." Strauss evidently saw himself as the
incarnate of a "general and free ideal of great and manly heroism... that heroism which
describes the inward battle of life and which aspires through
effort and reunification towards the elevation of the soul." In
a sense, Ein Heldenleben, which premiered in March of 1899,
represents the furthest extreme of the Romantic cult of the
artist, just as it exhibits many of the musical elements of
Romanticism taken to their limit (for example, the enormous
orchestra).
Strauss first conceived Ein Heldenleben while he was work-
ing on another tone poem, Don Quixote, and the intense ego-
ism of the present work is perhaps countered by his more
tongue-in-cheek attention to Cervantes's comic anti-hero.
In fact, Strauss always regarded the two pieces as a complementary pair. The work is
cast in six continuous sections, and it is evident which ones Strauss most identified with:
1) The Hero; 2) The Hero's adversaries (or critics); 3) The Hero's companion (or wife);
4) The Hero's deeds of war; 5) The Hero's works of peace (and struggles in the face of
continued criticism); 6) The Hero's retirement from the world and the fulfillment of
this life. Many critics have been harsh on Ein Heldenleben owing to its audacious narcis-
sism; yet there is a softer side to the work in the third section, a paean to Strauss's wife
Pauline, and the domestic tranquilly enshrined in the final section, a theme he would
also explore in lymphoma domestica.
The upwardly soaring line that opens the work spawns a related figure in the violin,
the wide intervallic leaps of which seem to impute a broad nobility to Strauss's hero.
What follows are the kind of quintessentially Romantic "yearning" passages and climax-
es that Wagner essentially codified in the Prelude to Tristan und Isolde. In a striking
contrast to the high-minded hero, the critics of the second section are portrayed by nit-
picking chatter in the woodwinds. Indeed, Strauss's own critics did not fail to recognize
themselves: after the premiere the composer wrote that many had "spit poison and gall,
principally because. . .they believed that could they could see themselves." Here, their
petty barbs seem to bounce off the honorable sincerity of the hero (again portrayed by
the strings) and Strauss triumphs — musically at least — over his adversaries with the
return of brass fanfares.
In the third portion of the work (more extended than the first two), Strauss lovingly
depicts both the foibles and virtues of his wife through an extensive violin solo, which
seems to "court" the rest of the orchestra (still playing the role of the Hero). Strauss
describes his wife as playfully fickle, a characterization that maps well onto the whimsi-
cal solo violin: "It's my wife I wanted to show. She is very complex, very feminine, a lit-
tle perverse, a little coquettish, never like herself, at every minute different from how she
had been the moment before." Eventually the soloist and the orchestra seem to "find
each other," and a tenderness overtakes the friction of their flirtatious banter.
But the critics return, intruding on the newfound comfort of companionship to spur
the hero to prepare for battle, heralded by off-stage trumpets. During the conflict — rife
with percussion, brass, the dissonant clash of arms, and vigorous march-like rhythms, as
one would expect — the reappearance of motives from the previous section indicates the
support and inspiration that the love of a good woman provides Strauss's hero, whose
own themes return to affirm his victory.
An ominous reproach from a pair of tubas creeps into the calm after the battle,
though, reminding the hero that more remains to be done — the "works of peace." In
an autobiographical reading of the work, it is evident from what follows exactly what
31
The World is Waiting
What persuades a young person to accept
her own greatness? What allows her to
see the connection between the fire in
her heart and her destiny to change a small cor-
ner of the world or the world itself? What con-
vinces a girl that the world needs her discover-
ies, her solutions, her creations?
The torch of leadership will be passed to a new
generation. That is a certainty. But is it also a
certainty that the new generation will be pre-
pared to lead? Yes, if the adults involved with
young people make it their priority.
Nurturing girls' potential is serious business.
Our job as parents, teachers, mentors, and
friends is to let a girl know what great promise
she has. A girl will recognize that promise if
she knows we have seen it too.
Before there can be leadership, there must be
the idea of leadership. That is, before a young
person can face her future with solid confi-
dence, she must have a clear idea of her power
to achieve and her ability to lead. The time for
a girl to catch a glimpse of the powerful person
she is to become is between the ages of 14 and
18. It is then that she can envision herself
twenty feet tall and think the unthinkable about
what she can accomplish.
That is where we begin. But leadership is also
about passion, about caring deeply, and, then,
about creating a vision for change in the
mind's eye. What matters to adolescents
today? Sit with a girl long enough and she'll tell
you that she worries about the environment,
about violence in the world, about children
without hope. Her conscience is stirred. Sit
with her a little longer and she will start to talk
about her plans. The groundwork for a new
approach is forming.
It is when this adolescent energy is bursting
forth that adults can help to give it shape. The
high school years are about more than acquir-
ing knowledge, as important as that is. It is in
these formative years, when a girl begins to
clarify her ethical positions, that we must be
there to encourage her to connect her vision of
how to make the world better with her ability to
accomplish the task.
Leadership takes practice also. It's all about a
girl's working up the nerve to speak out in a
meeting, to edit the school paper, to run for
class office, or to find an elegant solution to a
perplexing problem. Confidence grows cumu-
latively. In an enlightened community a girl has
the chance to be in charge and the encourage-
ment to try.
This country, this world, needs the strength,
compassion, and brains of all its young people.
But participation in democracy begins with
young people knowing that they count. It is
hard to be apathetic when the large idea that
fills your mind and soul is that you can, must,
and will make a difference.
In Nine and Counting: The Women of the Senate,
author Catherine Whitney writes, "Each of the
women senators understands that at any given
moment, she could have a substantial impact
on someone's life." Think how we would feel
about the future of this society if we thought
that every young person was prepared and
committed to making a "substantial impact."
Then, look at your daughter, granddaughter,
niece, the neighbor's girl. See in her the cure
we haven't discovered, the peace treaty not yet
written, the great art not yet created. Now, tell
her that the world needs what only she can
offer. Tell her that the world is waiting for her.

Strauss considers his own "works of peace" to be: the score is littered with quotations
from his own compositions — including Don Juan, Also sprach Zarathustra, Don Quixote,
Tod und Verklarung, and his early (failed) opera Guntram — woven together with the
themes of the hero and his companion. After one last bout with some terrible foe, the
hero's wife (again portrayed with a solo violin) returns to deliver him once and for all
from the conflicts that have beleaguered him, and the hero at last retires to a placid
repose in her loving company.

NOTES ON THE PROGRAM
The quartets on this program show that the genre has remained a potent means of seri-
ous musical expression throughout the post-World War II era. Even as composers dur-
ing these years employed increasingly elaborate instrumental forces in search of increas-
ingly complex color effects, the quartet medium remained a testing-stone for the intrin-
sic "abstract" quality of musical ideas, presenting the sort of constant challenge that
prompts a composer's best work.
Benjamin Britten (1913-1976) completed his Quartet No. 2 in C major, Opus 36,
on October 14, 1945. It was one of three Britten works commemorating the 250th
anniversary of Henry PurcelTs death (the others were Young Persons Guide to the Orches-
tra and Holy Sonnets). Adopting PurcelTs favorite Chacony
(ground-bass) form for the quartet's finale, Britten explored
the kind of finale-dominated three-movement layout in which
all movements share the same keynote — a layout used in Bee-
thoven's Moonlight and Opus 109 piano sonatas. Beethoven's
Opus 109, with its lightning scherzo and spacious final varia-
tions, may have provided impetus — the Chacony being, like its
Beethoven analogue, a variation structure almost twice the
length of the two previous movements combined.
In the first movement, the opening upward-gliding tenth
introduces three first-subject themes. The second of these
reappears to begin the subsidiary group. Weird, whispered musings on the tenth-motif
hover during the development, and Britten drastically compresses the recapitulation,
presenting the three themes simultaneously. All instruments are muted throughout
Britten's mordant scherzo. Paired instruments in unison deliver the stuttering, scurrying
theme. In a central section, the first violin chants a desperate melody in octaves.
The stately Chacony theme, cast in sarabande rhythm, is delivered pianissimo by the
four instruments in unison. To articulate the progress of the twenty-one variations,
Britten interpolates cadenzas after variations 6, 12, and 18. The first six variations fan
out to encompass multiple registers, then more animated rhythms. Six scherzo varia-
tions follow the forceful cello cadenza, while the next group, introduced by a viola
cadenza, comprises an intensely expressive slow movement. After a violin cadenza
replete with coruscating scales and trills, the final three variations constitute a coda,

which not only provides a closing climax but also unifies the finale and ties it to the rest
of the quartet.
The hallmark of Haydn, Mozart and Beethoven's unfailing fascination is their ability
to write genuinely fast music and genuinely slow music. This rare skill has made Joan
Tower (b.1938) one of the important composers of our era. Marked by formidable ten-
sile strength, her work bristles with event heightened by sus-
penseful preparation. Tower's major orchestral works include
Sequoia (1981), the Concerto for Orchestra (1991), Duets for
Chamber Orchestra (1994), Strike Zones (2001), and several
solo concertos.
Incandescent, composed in 2003, is Tower's String Quartet

on April 26, 2003. The score is cast in a single movement and has a duration of about
eighteen minutes. The composer has provided the following commentary:
The word "incandescent" is not one that I would usually include in a title because it
seems to be more poetic than what I am thinking about. My titles are usually more
upfront and visceral, and in this case I would have preferred to call it White Heat, but
was outvoted by friends who found that title carried too many associations.
In Incandescent, my third string quartet, basically five actions or ideas unfold,
develop, interact, and gradually change their "temperatures." They are a three-note
collection that initially appears as an upper and lower neighbor to a central note at
the very opening of the piece and that later turns around on itself repeatedly in the
first violin; a repetitive, dense, held-in-place, and narrowly registered dissonant chord;
a consonant arpeggiation that creases a "melody" distributed throughout the instru-
ments; a climbing motive that initially outlines an octatonic scale (whole steps alter-
nating with half-steps) and later shifts into both whole-tone and chromatic scales;
and, finally, wide leaps that first appear in the first violin and are subsequently picked
up by the viola. The extended sixteenth-note passages that occur throughout, finally
arriving at a virtuosic, Vivaldi-like cello solo, include all these motives in different
guises and temperatures.
When Dmitri Shostakovich (1906-1975) worked in the string quartet medium, the
Soviet government did not expect him to make the sort of Grand Optimistic National
Statement they desired from his symphonies. Thus, side by side with his patriotic 1950s
and early-'60s symphonies (No. 11, The Year 1905, and No. 12, The Year 1917), he poured
deeply personal music into his string quartets 6, 7, and 8 without provoking censure.
Difficulties arose, however, from the social commentary in Shostakovich's Babi Yar
Symphony (No. 13), and in 1964 he plunged back into chamber music, composing two
quartets.
Completed between May 2 and May 28 of that year, Shostakovich's Quartet No. 9 in
E-flat major, Opus 117, is not so intensely grim as his towering Eighth Quartet, but has
a sober agenda, nonetheless, and its mordant humor is far from lighthearted. Cast in
five movements played without pause, the Quartet No. 9, like Britten's Quartet No. 2, is
a finale-centered work: its closing Allegro is more than twice as long as any of the other
37
movements and binds up previous thematic threads. In the opening movement, the
repeated notes that begin the plaintive initial melody, and the two-alternating-note
murmurs beneath it, are both crucial. Later, Shostakovich descends the social scale for a
sturdy staccato cello theme accompanied by off-beat pizzicato^.
When the first theme glumly returns, it displays a triple-time
alter ego.
From a sustained viola note, the second movement emerges,
a lamentation that begins chordally, but later allows a florid
vocal role for violin. Suddenly the violin's cantilena fragments
into staccati and a derisive perpetual-motion galop saunters in,
commencing the third movement. Here an absurd repeated-
note fanfare bizarrely recalls the William Tell Overture. As the
first staccato fragments reappear, the violin keens a slow, sad
melody, and a sudden transformation of this theme into a
lower-string chorale brings another Adagio. After a relatively extroverted violin excursion,
the chorale melody returns in pizzicato chords. In a central portion, a dissonant chordal
wash builds up and the violin becomes frantic. The gloomy chorale resurfaces, and its
two-undulating-notes accompaniment evolves into a slashing waltz, which launches the

finale. Subsequent phrases sardonically transform the Adagios violin orations. Later,
sawing repeated-note bass drones divide the measure into two, rather than three, beats.
The violin punches out the chorale, punctuated by jeering glissandi, along with mono-
maniacal repeated-note brays. The waltz resumes with a whisper, and in the ensuing
crescendo, the chorale begins to nag. A discordantyz/gvz/o eventually coalesces into mas-
sive chords; then, against a sustained tremolo, the cello delivers an impassioned cadenza,
recalling the slow movement's pizzicati and orations. Shostakovich's coda adds the "alter
ego" to the other recycled motifs, with the fanfare-figure prominent in a manic crescen-
do toward a final fortississimo. . .

GUEST ARTISTS
Emerson String Quartet
Acclaimed for its insightful performances,
brilliant artistry, and technical mastery, the
Emerson String Quartet is one of the world's
foremost chamber ensembles. The quartet has
amassed an impressive list of achievements —
a brilliant series of recordings exclusively
documented by Universal Classics/Deutsche
Grammophon since 1987, six Grammy Awards
including two unprecedented honors for Best
Classical Album, and complete cycles of the Bartok, Beethoven, and Shostakovich string
quartets performed in the major concert halls of the world. Today, the ensemble is lauded
globally as a string quartet that approaches both classical and contemporary repertoire with
equal mastery and enthusiasm. In the 2003-04 season the Emerson Quartet presented a
three-concert series as part of Lincoln Center's "Great Performers" series, featuring Haydn's
Seven Last Words of Christ on the Cross and Bach's Art of the Fugue interwoven with the late
Beethoven string quartets. The group participated in the opening festival of Carnegie Hall's
Zankel Hall with performances of Haydn, Rorem, and Dvorak. In addition to its active per-
formance schedule in the major concert halls of North America, the quartet toured Europe
in winter 2004 with stops in Barcelona, Frankfurt, Manchester, Freiburg, Linz, and St. Gallen,
followed by a tour to Asia in the spring of 2004 with concerts in Hong Kong, Taipei, Seoul,
Singapore, and Kuala Lumpur. The quartet also celebrates its 25th consecutive season at the
Smithsonian Institute in Washington, D.C. In summer 2003 the quartet returned to the Salz-
burg, Lucerne, and Schubertiade festivals in Europe and the Aspen, Tanglewood, and Mostly
Mozart festivals in the United States. In fall 2002 the Emerson joined Stony Brook Univer-
sity as quartet-in-residence, coaching chamber music, giving master classes, and providing
instrumental instruction. In addition to these duties they also perform several concerts during
the year at Stony Brook's Staller Center for the Arts. The Emerson has received six Grammy
Awards — two for its Shostakovich cycle, two for its Bartok cycle, one for its disc "American
Originals" (works by Ives and Barber), and one for the complete quartets of Beethoven. The
quartet's relationship with Universal/Deutsche Grammophon continues with Bach's Art of the
Fugue, released in September 2003, and Haydn's Seven Last Words of Christ on the Cross, issued
in spring 2004. Formed in 1976, the Emerson String Quartet took its name from the Ameri-
can poet and philosopher Ralph Waldo Emerson. Violinist Eugene Drucker and Philip Setzer
alternate in the first chair position and are joined by violist Lawrence Dutton and cellist
David Finckel. The Emerson Quartet is based in New York City.

NOTES ON THE PROGRAM
This concert encompasses broad swaths of Romanticism. Chronologically, it stretches
from the proto-Romanticism of Beethoven's Bagatelles and Schubert's sonata style to
the endpoint of Janacek's Sonata, a score that takes late-Romantic expressionism to the
brink of modernism. Geographically the program follows Viennese Romantic musical
techniques on their spread northward and eastward to former musical backwaters, their
currents bringing the Polish Chopin and the Czech Janacek into the European main-
stream.
Among his other pioneering achievements, Ludwig van Beethoven (1770-1827) was
the first Classical-era composer to use short piano pieces for deep emotional and philo-
sophical expression. Gradually amassing collections of Baga-
telles, he issued his first set (Opus 33) in 1802 and the double
set of Opus 119 two decades later. Shortly after the premiere
of his Ninth Symphony, probably in May 1824, Beethoven
planned a set of Bagatelles as a single entity. The profound
spirituality that had marked his recent Opus 111 C minor
piano sonata and Diabelli Variations also touched the Six
Bagatelles, Opus 126, completed in June. By turns serene,
quirky, gnomic, and even childlike, they proved to be his last
piano works.
Chorale-like No. 1 reveals unexpected depths when
Beethoven develops one of its melodic figures via rhythmic compression. In scampering
No. 2, a major-minor mixture haunts a recurring cadence-motif. No. 3's inward medita-
tion grows seraphic through purling ornamentation. No. 4 alternates between a ram-
bunctious kermesse, complete with barrelhouse-like piano hilarity, and a glowing idyll.
Tender No. 5 is a veritable philosopher's reverie about innocence. No. 6 commences
with a rollicking, untamed outburst (a shout of unbridled joy? — or, as Tovey wittily
termed it, a kick down the stairs?). A slow melody breathes luminescent serenity — until
the opening salvo jerks us back to reality.
As Beethoven worked on these Bagatelles in 1824, Franz Schubert (1797-1828) was
focusing as never before upon extended works, composing two quartets, an octet, and a
four-hand piano sonata. During spring and summer of 1825,
Schubert occupied himself with three piano sonatas and
almost simultaneously tackled a symphony. In May he com-
pleted his A minor sonata, D.845 — a dramatic score brim-
ming over with memorable Schubertian melody, and which
set the structural pattern for his five subsequent piano sonatas.
Seeking motivic unity, Schubert unusually introduces both
of his first- movement themes in the initial thematic group: a
melancholy opening melody, and a threatening march-like
subject whose blithe continuation launches the second group.
Voluminous, eventful elaborations on first-theme material
mark the development, and Schubert ultimately rises to thunderous fury
The slow movement theme begins with puckish staccatos but soon takes on a
chorale-like bloom. The first of five variations introduces a flowing rhythm, the second
is mischievous, the third breathes minor-mode regret, the fourth giggles over giddily
delicate virtuosity In the final variation, the theme floats over bell-like textures. In the
elaborate scherzo, Schubert rings mercurial changes on a robust opening "signal," the

mood by turns ominous, heroic, skittish, and grieving. The central Trio provides one of
Schubert's loveliest idylls in luminescent keyboard colors.
In the finale, one of Schubert's manically voluble moto perpetuo themes chews over
its figures in a non-stop flood of chatter. This subject is juxtaposed with a stamping,
angry, yet almost folk-like dance. Until the coda, Schubert avoids tipping his hand as
to whether the sonata will end cheerfully or vehemently.
Leos Janacek's ethnic concerns — the Czech tongue and a hope for equality between
Bohemia and his own province of Moravia — provided impetus for his sonata in E-flat
minor, subtitled "Z ulice, 1.X.1905" {From the Streets, October
1, 1905). Moravia's provincial capital Brno had no Czech-lan-
guage university, and during a demonstration demanding such
a school on October 1, 1905, a trigger-happy soldier shot and
killed an innocent wood-worker. Distressed and outraged,
Janacek (1854-1928) poured out this sonata in artistic protest.
Janacek originally cast the sonata in three movements but
removed the finale (a massive funeral march) only minutes
before the premiere, which was given by the pianist Ludmila
Tucova on January 27, 1906, in Brno; the composer subse-
quently destroyed the whole score. Ms. Tucova, however, had
secretly copied out the first two movements. When she finally played Janacek the sal-
vaged music in 1924, he found he liked it, and published the sonata as a two-movement
work.

obsessive motivic counterstatements. In the first movement, entitled "Presentiment,"
Janacek immediately establishes his central conflict, as a melancholy pianissimo melody
is confronted by a short, eruptive motif in contrasted duple meter. A placating chordal
theme commences the second subject, where a shard of descending melody — later to
prove crucial — soon sings out in canon. Development-section reiterations of the erup-
tive motif provoke a climax, whereupon the opening theme reenters in clangorous
octaves, beginning the recapitulation.
The slow second movement (entitled "Death") begins with a lament based entirely
on a spasmodic rhythm. The theme later sees a gleam of light, but a goading, left-hand
rhythm rebukes any hint of consolation and slowly waxes tempestuous. At the crest of
a distraught crescendo the opening theme returns in severe fortissimo, then fines down
toward the quiet conclusion.
Frederic Chopin (1810-1849) warned that his mazurkas were "not to be danced to."
They are, in fact, Romantic character pieces in which the weird syncopations and modal
harmonies of Polish tradition become a "radical" composer's tools. The sturdy Opus 41,
No. 3 (1839), shows a delightful tendency to plunge into
"wrong" keys. Rusticity marks Opus 6, No. 3 (1830), where
the melody is sung in a deep register below a drone bass. Very
different is the elegance of Opus 63, No. 3 (1846), with a
plaintive theme that in its last statement acquires exquisitely
dovetailed counterpoints. The larger- scale Opus 59, No. 3
(1845), at first pretends to countrified naivete. A suaver major-
key episode, however, goes into a sophisticated, emotionally
unsettling chromatic tailspin toward harmonically strange
modal regions, and the opening melody, on its return, diva-
gates into new, highly reflective polyphony.
Unlike most Chopin nocturnes, which radiate dreamy introversion, the Nocturne in
E-flat, Opus 55, No. 2, displays full-throated, openhearted lyricism. Its long-breathed
melody abounds in fluid asymmetries and complex ornamentation (overlaying the ac-
companiment's triplets with patterns of four, five and seven beats).
Chopin viewed — and may even have invented — the Ballade as a genre precisely
defined in expressive range, rhythm, and structure (previously the term "Ballade" in
music had been purely evocative, with no technical connotation). From 6/8 meter,
Chopin derives a compelling "swing," redolent, perhaps, of the momentum found in
medieval epic poetry. Beginning his Ballade No. 1 in 1831, he labored long over it —
not surprising, given the unusually potent contrasts he derived from its themes — at last
completing it in 1835. The brief introduction provides an oblique approach to the prin-
cipal theme, a rocking melody of dispirited grandeur. The ensuing refrain at first prom-
ises quiet closure, then accelerates to an angry climax. After a lyric theme arches in con-
solation, elaborations of the principal theme lead toward seeming catastrophe, but in-
stead, the lyric theme bursts out in triumph. An unexpectedly mischievous virtuoso
episode ushers in the lyric theme, ardently chanted; but confidence evaporates, and a
coda based on the first theme closes in rage and despair.

GUEST ARTIST
Richard Goode
A native of New York, Richard Goode studied with Elvira Szigeti and
Claude Frank, with Nadia Reisenberg at the Mannes College of Music,
and with Rudolf Serkin at the Curtis Institute. He has won many prizes,
including the Young Concert Artists Award, first prize in the Clara Haskil
Competition, the Avery Fisher Prize, and a Grammy Award with clari-
netist Richard Stoltzman. His remarkable interpretations of Beethoven
came to national attention when he played all five concertos with the
Baltimore Symphony under David Zinman, and when he performed the
complete cycle of sonatas at New York's 92nd Street Y and Kansas City's Folly Theater. He
has made more than two dozen recordings, including Mozart concertos with the Orpheus
Chamber Orchestra, and chamber and solo works of Brahms, Schubert, Schumann, and
George Perle. Mr. Goode is the first American-born pianist to have recorded the complete
Beethoven sonatas, his recording of which was nominated for a Grammy Award and has
been hailed as among the finest interpretations of these works. With soprano Dawn Upshaw
he has recorded Goethe Lieder of Schubert, Schumann, and Hugo Wolf. Four recordings of
Mozart concertos with the Orpheus Chamber Orchestra were received with wide critical
acclaim, including many "Best of the Year" nominations and awards. Mr. Goode's first, long-
awaited Chopin recording was also chosen "Best of the Month" by Stereo Review. He recent-
ly released a recording of Bach's Partitas 1, 3, and 6. Richard Goode has appeared with many
of the world's greatest orchestras, including the Boston, Chicago, and San Francisco sym-
phony orchestras, the Cleveland Orchestra, the Deutsches Symphonie Orchester, and the
BBC Symphony at the London Proms. He has also appeared with the Orchestre de Paris
and Ivan Fischer, and toured with Fischer and his Budapest Festival Orchestra, as well as
making his Musikverein debut with the Vienna Symphony and touring Germany with the
Academy of St. Martin in the Fields under Sir Neville Marriner. As a recitalist, Mr. Goode
has become a favorite throughout Europe as well as the United States, including regular
appearances in Paris, London, Amsterdam, Vienna, and the leading cities of Germany and
Italy. Recital appearances in 2003-04 include New York, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Phila-
delphia, Miami, and Toronto; and Amsterdam, London, Paris, Madrid, and Munich, among
other European cities. He has toured with soprano Dawn Upshaw to the Barbican Center,
Vienna, Cologne, and Amsterdam, and serves with Mitsuko Uchida as co-Artistic Director

NOTES ON THE PROGRAM
Perotin and the Ars Antiqua
By any standards, Perotin must have been an extraordinary composer. He wrote and
revised organa in two to four parts (an organum being the earliest form of polyphony, in
which a new voice was written to fit over an existing melody), but also contributed to
the other main genre that was cultivated in Paris around 1200: the conductus. Conducti
were newly composed settings of non-liturgical texts in Latin; they could be composed
in anything from one to four parts. This program includes all three surviving four-part
conducti (sometimes attributed to Perotin) — Vetus abit littera, Deus misertus, and
Mundus vergens — alongside a three-part specimen, Procurans odium.
Conductus texts were non-liturgical, rhymed, and constituted part of the corpus of
medieval rithmi or accentual poetry. Their regular poetic structures give rise to regular
phrase length, and their stanzaic structure is reflected directly in the musical setting in
that the music for the first stanza is usually repeated for subsequent ones.
The subject matter for conducti varies widely, and has little relationship with the
number of voice parts or the musical style of the composition. Mundus vergens and Deus
misertus play off Old and New Testament imagery. In the case of Vetus abit littera,
Christ's nativity is characterized by the replacement of the Old Law with the New
Gospel with a passing allusion to Isaiah XL:4. In Deus misertus, which deals with sin
47
and the cleansing of sin, the third stanza the poet alludes to the story of Elisha's failure
to raise the dead boy when his servant, Gehazi, acted, and to how the boy was only
restored when Elisha himself lay across the boys body. Mundus vergens, however, is topi-
cal; the poem, of which some stanzas may be missing, seems to refer to a period when
France was experiencing a time of trouble after a period of peace, although the final line
of the third stanza — which continues a maritime metaphor — suggests that she does not
lack a rudder. Commentators have suggested a variety of occasions to which this text
might refer: Philip Augustus' disagreements with Richard I after 1189, the Norman
wars, the Battle of Bouvines, and so on.
— Mark Everist
Machaut was born around 1300 and was probably educated at the school of Reims.
He later moved on to Paris, where he worked in the service of the King. He returned to
Reims as a canon and died there in 1377. He also supervised the systematic copying of
his compositions, which makes the attribution of his works much easier than for almost
any other composer of this period.
Machaut s motets can be, by turns, beguiling, strange, quirky, but always delightful to
listen to. They do, however present the listener with a considerable challenge in that at
any one time there are three or four texts, in Latin and sometimes French, being sung
simultaneously. The motets are constructed on the foundation of the tenor part. This is
usually a fragment of plainsong but sometimes a popular song which is repeated, some-
times with note values halved, and above which the other voices sing much more com-
plex music to different texts, sometimes sacred, sometimes secular.
— Gordon Jones
The Hilliard Ensemble is as well known for performing contemporary works by
Arvo Part or Michael Finnissy or Stephen Hartke as for its highly acclaimed perform-
ances and recordings of the music of Perotin, Palestrina, and other composers of the
Medieval and Renaissance periods. Stephen Hartke (b.1952),
although perhaps best known for his orchestral works (includ-
ing his Symphony No. 3, commissioned by the New York
Philharmonic), is familiar with the Hilliard's world: he began
his public musical life as a boy chorister and has himself been
a performer in a Renaissance-music group. Hartke was intro-
duced to the Hilliard Ensemble by violinist Michelle Makar-
ski after she had served as an envoy delivering the idea for
Tituli to the group's attention.
Stephen Hartke 's musical influences encompass not only
the current modes of contemporary concert music and the
music of the Renaissance, but also rock music and folk music from around the world.
His Violin Concerto, Auld Swaara (written for Michelle Makarski), quotes American
and Shetland Islands folk songs and in its solo part draws on folk-fiddle playing styles.
His Clarinet Concerto (written for Richard Stoltzman) touches on the blues of the
Mississippi Delta. Recognizable stylistic cues aside, Hartke s music is frequently charac-
terized by a strong rhythmic pulse and imaginative, even illustrative, use of instruments.
The pitch language is usually clearly tonal-centered (in the late-modern sense of that
phrase).
The present piece, Tituli, exists in a musical world indistinctly evocative of the an-
cient past. Any direct reference, though, to Renaissance music, or even to some music-
dream of pre-Imperial Rome, is absorbed into Hartke 's compositional voice. In the first
48
movement, for example, there are references in the violin to the typical Renaissance
cadence, but overall the sparse texture of the piece matches the fragmentation of the
text. On the other hand, while the marimba would have been virtually unknown in the
West before the twentieth century, its dark, veiled tone perfectly colors Hartke's unspec-
ified time-past. Tituli is scored for countertenor, three tenors, baritone, violin, and two
percussionists (both performing on one 5-octave marimba, three suspended cymbals
[high, medium high, medium], two wood blocks [piccolo, medium], two small shakers,
one medium shaker, and two cup bells). The third tenor and the baritone also each hold
a small bronze cymbal, to be struck with a brass-headed mallet. The composer's descrip-
tion of the piece follows.

Titulus — tituli in the plural — is the Latin word for an inscription or a notice. All the
texts set in this work are inscriptions, either carved in stone or scratched on metal, from
pre-Imperial Roman times. Thus they are not literary texts but rather represent different
facets of daily life in ancient Italy in the period between 600 and 100 BCE. The first two
movements set the two oldest known Latin texts, first the Lapis niger, a fragment of
sacred law, followed by an offering inscribed on the bottom of a three-legged pot. Both
these texts are in fact so ancient that they cannot be translated with any accuracy. The
third and fourth texts are more formal: the Columna rostrata, taken from a triumphal
monument celebrating the first major Roman victory in the First Punic War, and an
epitaph from the grave of a small boy named Optatus (meaning "the desired one"). A
bilingual shop-sign from Palermo in slightly garbled Latin and Greek provides the text
for the fifth movement: "Inscriptions arranged and engraved here for holy temples by
public labors through we [sic]." The final two movements involve compilations of many
quite short texts. "Sortes" is a collection of oracular texts, most of them scratched on
metal foil or on rods that were used for fortune-telling. The last movement, "Instru-
menta," sets inscriptions from personal belongings. The first three texts are in Etruscan
with the remainder in Latin, and each has either the name of the owner or of the per-
son who presented the object as a gift.

amounts to some hundred concerts a year. Its sub-
stantial following in Europe is augmented by regular
visits to Japan, the United States, and Canada. The
group's reputation as an early music ensemble dates
from the 1980s and its series of highly successful
records for EMI (many of which are now reissued on Virgin), but from the start the group
has paid equal attention to new music. Their 1988 recording of Arvo Part's Passio began a
fruitful relationship with both Part and the Munich-based record company ECM. This con-
tinued with their recording of Arvo Part's Litany, which was released in August 1996. The
group has recently commissioned other composers from the Baltic States, including Veljo
Tormis and Erkki-Sven Tuur, adding to a rich repertoire of new music written for the en-
semble by Gavin Bryars, Heinz Holliger, John Casken, James MacMillan, Elena Firsova, and
49
others. The group's 1994 composition competition produced over one hundred pieces, many
of which have found their way into Hilliard programs. At its annual summer schools the
group provides for a composer-in-residence; many of those composers are represented on the
ECM double album "A Hilliard Songbook."The 1994 crossover bestseller "Officium" was
the first of the group's collaborations with the Norwegian saxophonist Jan Garbarek, with
whom they have enjoyed huge success throughout the world. In addition, the Hilliard En-
semble also commemorated the 500th anniversary of the death of Ockeghem (c.1410-97)
with special tribute programs and through the launch of their own mail-order record label,
hilliard LIVE, issues on which include "Perotin and the Ars Antiqua," "For Ockeghem,"
"Antoine Brumel," and "Dufay" Releases on ECM also include music of Lassus, Hartke,
Machaut, Bach cantatas and motets, and the best-selling Bach album "Morimur" with violin-
ist Christoph Poppen and soprano Monika Mauch. Performances with major orchestras have
included Part's Litany with the BBC Symphony Orchestra; the premiere of Unsuk Chin's
Miroirs des temps with Kent Nagano and the London Philharmonic; the premiere of Quick-
ening, a commission from James MacMillan, with the BBC Symphonv Orchestra and Sir
Andrew Davis at the BBC Proms; the first United States performance of that same work,
with the Philadelphia Orchestra; and, with the New York Philharmonic under Lorin Maazel,
Stephen Hartke 's Symphony No. 3, which was written for the New York Philharmonic and
the Hilliard Ensemble.

NOTES ON THE PROGRAM
Each of the four orchestral suites by Johann Sebastian Bach (1685-1750) is a magnifi-
cent achievement, opening with a majestic, elaborate Ouverture and continuing with a
succession of highly contrasted shorter movements, mostly of
dance-like character. Bach himself did not call these works
"suites." He used the term "ouverture? and the French spelling
was intentional, as the opening movement was patterned after
the festive French overtures of Jean-Baptiste Lully (1632-
1687).
The Lully ouverture was long, weighty, impressive, and
usually in three connected parts: (1) a stately Grave section
characterized by a slow tempo, majestic aura, and much use of
the so-called "dotted" rhythm (a notational device that results
in an alternation of long and short note-values); (2) a lively
Allegro passage with much imitation between voices and a complex polyphonic texture;
(3) a return of the opening Grave section. Since the ouverture was by far the longest,
most substantial, and most elaborate movement of the orchestral suites, Bach adopted
53
the literary device of synecdoche — letting a part stand for the whole.
After the ouverture comes the series of dance episodes. The courante is a courtly
French dance using a subtle combination of both 3/2 and 6/4 meters, resulting in rhyth-
mic ambiguity. All the movements in this suite except the courante and the forlane are
"doubles," meaning that two of a kind are presented in a contrasting arrangement with
the first repeated, resulting in an ABA form. Thus, in this suite, the first gavotte (a
French peasant dance in duple meter with two quarter-notes as pick-up) has a folklike
melody and homophonic texture while the second is more tender, has a lighter texture,
and features contrapuntal delicacies. The forlane is a wild folk dance, once beloved by
the Venetians, especially at carnival time. The aristocratic minuet I for oboes, bassoon,
and strings stands in contrast to the quieter minuet II y for strings only. Similarly, the
animated bourree I in C major is offset by the gentler bourree II in C minor for the solo
woodwind trio. A pair of passepieds (lively dances in 3/4 meter) conclude the suite.
Suite No. 1 is scored for two oboes, bassoon, and string ensemble. Bach exploits the
coloristic effects of light and shade by spotlighting the three woodwind instruments as a
solo group against the string choir.
Georg Philipp Telemann (1681-1767) belonged to one of the most extraordinary
generations of composers in the history of music: Bach, Handel, Vivaldi, Domenico
Scarlatti, Albinoni, and Rameau were all born just a few years before or after Telemann.
But Telemann eclipsed them all in the prodigious quantity of
his output: more than a thousand cantatas alone, plus passions,
oratorios, masses, operas, sonatas, songs, keyboard works, or-
chestral suites, and concertos. It is estimated that he wrote
more than Bach and Handel put together, and his total output
has still not been thoroughly investigated and catalogued. He
does not enjoy the popularity Vivaldi does today (though we
must remember that the Vivaldi craze is a comparatively
recent phenomenon, and peaked only about a generation ago),
but his time will surely come. When it does, the world will
find even more music to explore than by Vivaldi.
Like Vivaldi, Telemann was constantly on the alert for opportunities to try out new
instrumental combinations. Hence we find a work like the concerto we hear tonight,
which combines two individual groups of three members each (three violins and three
oboes). This gives Telemann almost endless possibilities to allow each trio to operate as
an equal but separate unit — the tangy sound of the oboes vs. the sweeter-voiced vio-
lins — as well as to merge the two sonoric groups in varying combinations ranging from
two to six parts.
5fi sfc >|i ;-c +
Sometime during 1718, Johann Sebastian Bach met Christian Ludwig, the Mar-
grave of Brandenburg, who resided in the Royal Palace in Berlin. The music-loving
Margrave requested from Bach some works for his court orchestra. In March of 1721,
nearly three years later, Bach presented him with six "Concerts avec plusieurs Instruments."
The basic concept embodied in the Brandenburg Concertos is that of alternation, com-
bination, and contrast of soloists and tutti. This Bach inherited via the concerto grosso
form from Corelli, Vivaldi, and others, but in Bach's hands, the freedom, variety, and
multifarious workings-out are new; there is no precedent for virtually any of the instru-
mental combinations found in these six works, nor for their manner of employment.
The Brandenburg Concerto No. 3 is the shortest of the six concertos, lacking as it
54
does an actual slow movement. Only two chords separate the outer Allegro movements,
but in accordance with performance practice of the day, surely a cadenza was improvised
at this point by one or more of the players. There are nine string parts (three violins,
three violas, and three cellos, all of which can be augmented by multiple players per
part), plus continuo (harpsichord and a supporting bass instrument). At times, each sec-
tion plays in opposing units of sound; at other times the orchestra is broken up into
nine separate soloists; and sometimes all nine parts play together — the possible permu-
tations are endlessly fascinating.
With infectious enthusiasm, Edward Downes describes the first movement thus:
"What a pulse, what a stream of vitality flows through the apparently mechanical figu-
rations of this opening: This is not only the start of a far-arching phrase; it is also the
thematic root from which springs the luxuriant growth of the entire movement. From
time to time, we recognize the entire phrase, smaller portions of it, and very often the
tiniest rhythmic unit, consisting of only the three-note combination" (two shorts and a
long).
The Brandenburg Concerto No. 1 is the longest of the six, is the most elaborate, and
requires the largest number and variety of instruments, which are grouped into three
choirs: (1) strings; (2) three oboes and a bassoon; (3) two horns. All the wind parts are
highly prominent. There is as well an important solo part originally written for a violono
piccolo (a small violin tuned a third higher than the others and now considered obsolete,
except in early music ensembles). The differentiation of choirs becomes steadily more
discernable as the concerto progresses.
The first movement concentrates on extensive interplay of the various choirs in
massed sound, and is imbued with vivacious energy. The second movement is a lament,
rich in poignant dissonances. An intimate dialogue evolves between the solo instru-
ments, beginning with oboe and violin. After the rollicking third-movement Allegro,
with its virtuosic violin part full of double-stops and runs, the concerto would normally
be over. But Bach has added a stately minuet alternating with three Trios, each of which
offers a different instrumental color scheme: the first is scored for two oboes and bas-
soon, the second (actually apo/acca) for strings, the third for horns and oboes.
The first of a series is always a matter of historical interest, but all too often that first
case is lost in the mists of time. We cannot, for instance, point to the "first" symphony
ever written, or the "first" motet. Usually these genres evolve over a period of time. But
in the case of the solo harpsichord concerto, Bach was almost certainly responsible for
the first such work of this type. This was the Brandenburg Concerto No. 5, written
about 1721.
In the Fifth Concerto, the concertino (solo group) consists of harpsichord, flute, and
violin. Since the ripieno traditionally incorporated a harpsichord to play along for har-
monic support in the tutti passages, the harpsichord player in Brandenburg No. 5 must
take on two roles, which means he plays almost continuously throughout the work. Not
only that, but this musician is the most prominent member of the concertino. As the first
movement progresses, the harpsichord becomes ever more assertive, and finally breaks
forth to play totally alone, for 65 measures, a cadenza of astonishing virtuosity.
The first movement opens with a sturdy, robust principal theme (the ritornello), which
returns in whole or in part at various points throughout the movement. Various contrast-
ing ideas of a more flowing and lyrical nature are interspersed with the ritornello, and
the whole is a model of polyphonic mastery that every listener can follow with delight.
The central movement is entitled "Affettuoso," and is suitably wistful and sentimen-
tal in a way that anticipates the "affected" style so cherished by mid-eighteenth-century
ears. The entire ripieno is silent throughout, meaning that the three members of the con-

certino play what essentially amounts to a trio sonata, yet the contrast between solo and
tutti, which lies at the heart of the concerto concept, is still present in the way Bach
handles the solo lines and the textural elements.
The final movement is a fugue, full of witty interplay among the three solo voices
who set the ball rolling. The single theme is subjected to endless fragmentations and
permutations, while rhythmic motion never falters. The movement flows ever onwards
with the theme running its course through a richly varied musical landscape until it
reaches journey's end at the final cadence.

GUEST ARTISTS
Orchestra of the Age of Enlightenment
In 1986 a group of the finest exponents of
period instruments in the UK pooled their
talents and expertise to found their own self-
governing orchestra, the Orchestra of the
Age of Enlightenment (OAE).The OAE
was quickly recognized as exceptional and,
in 1992, scored a further coup when it per-
suaded Frans Briiggen and Sir Simon Rat-
tle, CBE, to put their names to the ensem-
ble as principal guest conductors. The OAE
is in its twelfth season as Associate of the
Royal Festival Hall, and is also Associate Orchestra at Glyndebourne. The OAE has toured
many countries, including South America and the U.S. in 2002, and Southeast Asia in
autumn 2003. The orchestra's discography encompasses more than fifty recordings in music
from Purcell to Verdi.
The OAE established an education and outreach program in 1994 with the aim of en-
couraging creativity and active participation in the arts. The 2003-04 season's flagship educa-
tion project "Role over Beethoven" is inspired by the Beethoven piano concerto cycle at the
South Bank. The OAE is the only period instrument orchestra to offer an apprenticeship
scheme, the Jerwood/OAE Experience for Young Players. Substantially dependent on spon-
sorship for its core activities, the OAE has a particularly successful relationship with Jupiter
Unit Trust Managers, who sponsored the OAE's Beethoven Symphonies Series in 1999 and
twelve subsequent concerts in 2000-01. Jupiter Unit Trust Managers have been the orches-
tra's Principal Sponsor since the 2001-02 season.

NOTES ON THE PROGRAM
Only a moment will suffice for many listeners to identify the source of the Sinfonia to
the Cantata No. 174 of Johann Sebastian Bach (1685-1750): it is the opening move-
ment of the Brandenburg Concerto No. 3 in a new guise, here decked out with three
oboes (the third an oboe da caccia, ancestor of today's English
horn), two horns, and a full string body with an independent
role from the nine solo strings of the original (three each of
violins, violas, and cellos).
As is well known, Bach and his contemporaries regularly
recycled their own music. The Brandenburg Concertos date
from the second decade of the eighteenth century, Cantata
No. 174 from 1729. In May of 1729, six years after his move
to Leipzig, Bach added to his duties there by taking over di-
rection of the Collegium Musicum, an instrumental organiza-
tion based at the university. Baroque scholar Nicholas Kenyon
surmises the following scenario: Bach "was preparing music for their summer out-of-
doors concerts. What might be more natural for him than to turn to his stock of concer-
tos and to rearrange one, making it suitable for outdoor use by adding wind instruments
— and for him then to save himself labor by also incorporating it in his cantata for church
use as well [on Whit Monday 1729, which was June 6]?. . .We can, therefore, perhaps
take the liberty of imagining this marvelous movement not only prefacing a cantata at
the Thomaskirche, but also resounding through the open spaces of a Leipzig garden."
61
The Benda family, like the Bachs, embraced a long line of musicians. The patriarch
of the Benda dynasty was Hans Georg (Jan Jifi), born in 1686 (a year after J.S. Bach).
Five of his six children to survive infancy became musicians, including the oldest, Franz
(Frantisek). The last of this musical line, the Berlin conductor Hans von Benda, died as
recently as 1972.
Franz Benda (born 1709 in Stare Benatky, near Prague, Bohemia; died 1786 in
Nowawes, near Potsdam, Prussia) was one of the leading musicians of his day. From his
post as concertmaster in the court orchestra of Frederick II of Prussia ("Frederick the
Great") and as composer, he exerted considerable influence on the musical life and style
of the early Classical era. The famous music historian Charles Burney said of him that
"his style is so truly cantabile that scarce a passage can be found in his compositions
which it is not in the power of a human voice to sing."
The concerto we hear tonight was originally composed in D minor around 1760 for
solo violin and some time later transposed up a tone for the flute. It is in the repertory
of both instruments today in their respective keys. Jean-Pierre Rampal is credited with
reviving the flute version in the 1960s. The energetic first movement, in traditional
sonata-allegro form, features many dramatic leaps and sturdy rhythms. The elegant slow
movement perfectly illustrates Burney s quote above. A rondo finale with a well-defined
main theme and numerous interesting episodes rounds out this prime example of mid-
18th-century musical style from northern Germany.
Johann David Heinichen (born 1683 in Krossuln, central Germany; died 1729 in
Dresden) was born two years before Bach and Handel in a little town about equidistant
from the birthplaces of his two great contemporaries. Much of his musical training was
undertaken at the Thomasschule in Leipzig with Bach's predecessor there, Johann
Kuhnau. In 1717, at the invitation of the Saxon Elector Friedrich August, he moved to
Dresden to become Kapellmeister at one of the most important musical centers in
Europe. Here he remained for the remainder of his brief life of 46 years (he died of tu-
berculosis). Heinichen was reasonably prolific by the standards of his age, writing in
most genres except keyboard music. However, none of his music was published during
his lifetime, and many of the manuscripts were lost during World War II. The work we
hear tonight was published only in 1998 by Concerto Editions in Indianapolis, based on
a badly damaged manuscript in Dresden.
Writing in The New Grove Dictionary of Music and Musicians, George Buelow
provides this overall description of Heinichen: "His music is somewhat more galant or
pre-Classical in character than reminiscent of the contrapuntal complexity associated
with North German Baroque composers.... Heinichen was particularly interested in
deriving unusual instrumental colors, and his works are masterful displays of unusual
instrumental combinations and sonorities."
With this in mind, we note that the Sonata in F for two horns and strings was one
of the first works to employ the technique of hand-stopping on the horn for the pur-
pose of playing notes outside the harmonic series (horns being valveless at the time).
Also of interest is the fact that the two outer movements of this sonata are variants of
movements 3 and 5 from another Heinichen work (a concerto, Seibel 235) which calls
for flutes, recorders, and oboes in addition to horns and strings. But, as one of tonight's
horn players, Andrew Clark, points out, "it is the middle movement of the sonata, in
C minor, that demonstrates truly innovative horn writing. Here the horns employ many
notes outside the harmonic series of F, and outside the use of other composers of the
period. This is a wonderfully mournful and expressive use of the horns beyond their
62
natural tonal center."
Clark goes on to note that throughout the concerto "the horn writing is often antiph-
onal, and employs quite a wide range (both horns require a range of over two octaves).
The parts are exposed in a typical Baroque concerto style to show off the instruments in
a virtuosic manner."
Sometime during 1718, Johann Sebastian Bach met Christian Ludwig, the Mar-
grave of Brandenburg, who resided in the Royal Palace in Berlin. The music-loving
Margrave requested from Bach some works for his court orchestra. In March of 1721,
nearly three years later, Bach presented him with six "Concerts avec plusiers Instruments."
The basic concept embodied in the Brandenburg Concertos is that of alternation,
combination, and contrast of soloists and tutti. This Bach inherited via the concerto
grosso form from Corelli, Vivaldi, and others, but in Bach's hands, the freedom, variety,
and multifarious workings-out are new; there is no precedent for virtually any of the
instrumental combinations found in these six works, nor for their manner of employ-
ment.
The Brandenburg Concerto No. 6 requires only strings but no violins. One would
expect its tone to be dark, rich, heavy, and somber. Dark and rich, yes; heavy and
somber, no, for the music breathes uncommon exuberance and vigor. The score calls for
two violas, two violas da gamba (a larger viola, held between the knees; the instrument
is now obsolete except in early music ensembles, and its parts are otherwise given to cel-
los today), two cellos, double bass, and harpsichord. The two violists take on the role of
principal soloists.
The opening gesture, which returns three times in changing keys, provides a fine
example of musical canon — the two violas (or viola sections) chase each other, one start-
ing a bit later than the other (in this case, just a fraction of a beat), and following with
the identical melodic line. The central slow movement radiates a mellow glow in its
soulful duet for violas, accompanied only by the harpsichord. The concluding Allegro
suggests the sturdy character of a gigue (jig) and provides even more virtuosic play for
the violas than did the first movement.
The Brandenburg Concerto No. 4 is the lightest and most graceful of the six Bran-
denburgs. It features two flutes and a violin in its concertino (solo group), with the violin
predominating to the point where the work nearly takes on the character of a violin
concerto. Bach begins by spotlighting the two flutes (soft- toned recorders in Bach's
day), which present the movement's principal thematic idea; only considerably later does
the solo violin take the lead.
Rococo elegance infuses the Andante movement as well. The two flutes rise to the
fore while the violin assumes a more subordinate role. Yet the three concertino members
nearly always work closely together as a unit, sometimes as a collective soloist, some-
times in conjunction with the ripieno (full string ensemble).
The third movement takes the form of a scintillating fugue, developed from the
opening material. Contrapuntal skill combines with virtuosic play from the solo violin
(note particularly the roller-coaster scales and machine gun tremolo effects in the move-
ment's central portion) to bring the concerto to an exhilarating close.
Splendor and effervescence burst forth from the very opening phrase of the Bran-
denburg Concerto No. 2, which features a concertino of four instruments: violin, flute (or
recorder), oboe, and trumpet. The latter especially is called upon to indulge in some of
the most virtuosic writing Bach ever wrote for the instrument. Bach, like a good drama-
tist, holds his biggest star in reserve for a particularly effective entrance: the full ensemble
and the other soloists are all heard first; only then does the spectacular, brilliant sound
63
of the trumpet resound in its highest range.
The contemplative central movement allows the trumpet to rest while the other
three soloists wind their way through a poignant melody of gentle pathos. The final
movement restores the trumpet to its position of primus inter pares. Bach's command of
contrapuntal skill here is extraordinary, inspiring Edward Downes to compare him to a
master juggler "exulting in the virtuosity with which he keeps four objects — or rather
four solo instruments — flying through the air, each in its own astonishing orbit. . .all
combining in an effortless, harmonious whole."

MUNDUSVERGENS
Mundus vergens in defectum
casum probans per effectum,
se fallacem exuit.
Nam remota fraudis arte
nos delere vi vel arte
quod iam patet astruit.
Et dum hiis se applicat,
quod explicit explicat.
Mundus florens diu pace,
iam accensus belli face,
Gallia praemoritur.
Et iam navis marl data
portu carens desperata
procelis concitatur
et fractatur turbine,
non eget regimine.
PROCURANS ODIUM
Procurans odium
effectu proprio
vix detrahentium
gaudet intentio;
nexus est cordium
ipsa detractio:
sic per contrarium
ab hoste nescio,
fit hie provisio
in hoc amantium
felix conditio.
Insultus talium
prodesse sentio,
tollendi tedium
fluxit occasio.
Suspendunt gaudium
pravo consilio,
sed desiderium
auget dilatio;
tali remedio
de spinis hostium
uvas vendemio.
The world, turning in revolt, proving its
destruction by its result, shakes itself
free from falsehood.
For it is removed from the art of deceit
to obliterate us, by strength or by art;
what is now obvious is added on.
And while it applies itself to these ends,
it unfolds what is the end.
The world which for a long time
flourished in peace is now inflamed by
the torch of war, and Gaul dies before
her time;
and now the ship, given to the sea,
in desperation lacking a harbour,
is shaken by the tempest and,
shattered by the storm,
has no need of a rudder.
Inciting hatred,
the act of pulling people apart
scarcely rejoices at its own effect
upon those it divides;
the binding together of hearts
is its own act of separation:
thus, through a contradiction
by an ignorant enemy,
what in one case is foresight
becomes in another case
the happy condition of lovers.
I perceive that the insults
of such people are profitable
and the opportunity drips away
of removing tediousness.
They defer their happiness
by a perverse resolution,
but longing
is increased by delay.
By such a cure,
I gather grapes
from an enemy's thorn-bushes.
DEUS MISERTUS HOMINIS
Deus misertus hominis,

AUCUNE GENT (Machaut)
Aucune gent m'ont demande que j'ay
Que je ne chant et que je n'ay cuer gay,
Si com je sueil chanter de lie corage;
Et je leur di, certes, que je ne scay.
Mais j'ay menti, car dedens le cuer ay
Je trop grief dueil qui onques n'assouage.
Car sans sejour ay mise ma pensee
A bonne Amour faire ce qui agree,
Ne a nul fuer n'i pensasse folage;
Et je scay bien que ma dame honnouree,
TRIPLUM
Some people have asked me what is
wrong,
why do I do not sing and my heart is
not merry,
for I am wont to sing with a happy heart;
and I say to them, Truly, I do not know
But I have lied, for in my heart
I have a very great sorrow which is
never eased.
For I have ceaselessly turned my
thoughts
both to doing that which is pleasing to
good Love
and to avoiding all thought of folly;
and yet I know well that my honored
lady,
Que je tant criem, si m'a ma mort juree
Par crueus cuer et par simple visage.
Car, quant je voy son gracieus viaire,
Dun dous ottroy me moustre un
exemplaire
Et si me vuet tenir en son hommage,
Ce m'est avis; mais aus doleurs retraire,
J'ay ce tant pis qu'on ne me porroit faire,
Car mils ne puet penser si grief damage
Com le refus que ses durs cuers
m'envoie;
Et si l'aim plus, se Diex men envoit joie,
Que riens qui soit. Dont n'est ce droite
rage?
Certes, oil; mais, pour riens que je voie,
De ce peril issir je ne voudroie,
Car tous siens sui sans changement de
gage,
Quant esperer me fait ma garison;
Et c'est tout cler que monsignour Yvon
Par bien servir, non pas par vasselage,
Conquist l'amour dou grant lion sauvage.
whom I so fear, has sworn to cause my
death
through her cruel heart and sweet face.
For when I see her gracious countenance
she seems to me a very example of sweet
acceptance,
and I believe that she wishes me to pay
her homage;
but, to speak of my sorrows,
I have a hundred times worse than any-
one might do to me,
for none could think of great a harm
as the refusal that comes to me from her
hard heart;
and — may God send me joy of it! —
I love her more than anything in the
world. Am I not then on the road to
madness?
Truly, I am; but, for nothing I might see
would I wish to be free of this danger,
for I am entirely hers, with no exchange
of pledge,
for she causes me to hope for relief;
and it is quite clear that my lord Yvais
won the love of the great wild ion
through true service and not through his
knightly valor.
Qui plus aimme plus endure
Et plus mainne dure vie,-
Qu'amours qui est sans mesure
Asses plus le contralie,-
Que li mauvais qui n'a cure
De li, einsois met sa cure
En mal et en villonnie.
He! Diex, que n'ont signourie
Les dames de leur droiture,
Que ceuls qui ont la pointure
D'amours au cuer atachie
Choisissent sans mespresure!
S'einsi fust, je m'asseiire,
Tels est ames qui ne le seroit mie
Et telz hais qui tost aroit amie.
Fiat voluntas tua.
MOTETUS
He who loves most endures most and
lives the hardest life, because love, who
lacks measure, most opposes him, for
the wicked fellow cares nothing for him,
but rather puts his efforts into doing
him harm and playing him Dane tricks.
Dear God, why do not ladies exercise
such sovereignty seer their favors so as
to choose unerringly those who have
the arrow of love fined in their hearts!
I am certain that, if this were so,
many who are now loved would
not be, and many a one who is sated
would soon have his lady's love.

Dame, je sui cils qui vueil endurer
Vostre voloir, tant com porray durer;
Mais ne cuit pas que longuement
Tendure
Sans mort avoir quant vous m'estes si
dure
Que vous voles qu'ensus de vous me
traie,
Sans plus veoir la tres grant biaute vraie
De vo gent corps qui tant a de valour
Que vous estes des bonnes la millour.
Las! einsi ay de ma mort exemplaire.
Mais la doleur qu'il me convenra traire
Douce seroit, s'un tel espoir avoie
Lady, I am he who wishes to endure
whatever you desire as long as I may
live;
But I do not believe I can long avoid
death,
for you are so harsh to me that you wish
me
to remove myself from your presence
and no
longer behold the great and true beauty
of
your noble body, which is of such great
worth
that you are the best of all good ladies.
Alas! I thus see the pattern of my death.
But the suffering I must undergo would
be sweet
if I could but hope that before my death
I might
Qu'avent ma mort par vo gre vous revoie. have your leave to see you once more.
Dame, et se ja mes cuers riens entreprent And, lady, if ever my heart should
undertake
Dont mes corps ait honneur anything from which this body of mine
n'avancement, would receive honor or advancement,
De vous venra, com lonteins que vous it will all come from you, however far
soie, away from you I may be,
Car ja sans vous que j'aim tres loyaument for never without you whom I love so
faithfully
Ne sans Amours emprendre nel saroie. nor without Love would be able to
undertake it.

Et si men faut astenir
Pour faire vostre plaisir,

Quencontre vostre voloir,
Par vostre biaute veoir,

MOTETUS
Sweet noble heart, I am forbidden on
your behalf ever again to behold your
sweet and noble countenance which
hasset me on the path of love;
but truly, I do not know how I can
fail to die soon.
And if I must so restrain myself in
order to do you pleasure,
or if by not doing so I would be false to
you, I would much rather preserve my
loyalty and die to please you, if your
heart allows it, than to receive perfect
joy by beholding your beauty against
your will.

TU QUI GREGEM (Machaut)
Tu qui gregem tuum ducis,
Opera fac veri ducis,
Nam ducere et non duci,
Hoc competit vero duci.
Dux prudentium consilio
Ducat nee sit in ottio
Debetque dux anteire,
Ductus autem obedire;
Sed si ductor nescit iter,
Ambo pereunt leviter.
Nam ambulat absque luce
Qui ducitur ceco duce,
Sed qui habet verum ducem
Omni hora habet lucem,
Et ille bene ducitur
Qui a nullo seducitur.
Unde qui ducum ductor es,
Contere nunc seductores,
Et talker nos deducas,
Ut ad pacem nos perducas.
Plange regni republica!
Tua gens ut scismatica
Desolatur;
Nam pars eius est iniqua
Et altera sophistica
Reputatur.
De te mondo non curatur,
Inimicis locus datur
Franduletur,
Tui status deturpatur;
Sua virtus augmentatur
Nunc potentur.
Te rexerunt imprudenter,
Licet forte innocenter
Tui cari.
Sed amodo congaudenter
Te facient et potenter,
Deo dante, dominari.
TRIPLUM
You who lead your flock,
Do the work of a true leader,
For to lead and to be led,
This befits a true leader.
Let the leader lead on the counsel
of the wise,
And not be idle;
And the leader should walk before
And the led obey;
But if the leader knows not the way,
[Then] both easily perish.
For he walks without light
Who is led by a blind leader,
But he who has a true leader
Has light at all times,
And he is well led
Who is misled by no one.
Wherefore, you who are the leader
of leaders,
Crush now the misleaders,
And lead us in such a way
That you lead us to peace.
MOTETUS
Weep, commonwealth of the kingdom!
Your people, as though divided,
Are forsaken;
For part of them is wicked
And the other part is considered
Sophistic.
No care is taken of you now
A place is given your enemies
Fraudulently.
Your standing is ruined;
Their virtue is
now magnified openly.
Those dear to you
have ruled you imprudently,
Albeit perhaps innocently.
But now will they joyfully
And forcefully cause you,
God granting, to prevail.

The Old Law passes away,
the rite of the ancients has gone,
a virgin in child-birth gives to us
a new son,
a salvation-bearing gift,
a king and high priest
who, making the rough places plain,
strengthens the bond of peace,
the cleanser of our sins.
The blessed child-bearing
of the blessed mother
revokes the exile
of wretched Babylon,
and now the blind race of gentiles,
seeing the ray of light,
now that death's prison is broken,
does not abide by the Law
because it has the Gospel.
Punishment's cord is broken
by the new-born King of Glory;
the flood of death is swallowed up
by the gift of the law of grace;
this is a day of joy,
the perpetual light of singing,
for the reward of the feast-day is granted;
let us rejoice, therefore,
since our guilt has been forgiven.

DUM SIGILLUM (Perotin)
Dum sigillum summi patris
signatum divinitus,
in sigillo summi matris
signatur humanitus.
Nee sigillum castitatis
in puella frangitur;
nee sigillum deitatis
detrimentum patitur.
Dum humanum osculatur
naturam divinitas,
ex contactu fecundatur
intacta virginitas.
Mira virtus osculandi,
miranda sunt oscula,
que dant vires fecundandi
sine carnis copula.
While the supreme Father's seal
is secured by divine influence,
the seal of the supreme Mother
is tenderly sealed.
The maidens seal of purity
shall not be broken;
neither shall the divine seal
endure loss.
While humanity is kissed by
divine nature,
its touch makes fruitful
inviolate virginity.
Wonder at the power of he who bestows
the kiss.
Wonderful is the kiss
which makes humankind fruitful
without physical union.

From the bosom of Jesse

a radiant star
is risen from the bridal bed.
The sun shines upon earth,
making the shadows flee,
and from her son Christ
thus appears this miraculous lady.
Mother of the king,
exalted above all things,
and ever shining
brighter than the stars.
Sweetly attend to us
in this our fatherland
that our flesh may not prevail
in the midst of confusion.
Rejoice, O virgin,
light and adornment of our land,
given to us
as an illustrious witness of life.
Be ready for us

that, though parted from us,
you may be our glorious ally. Amen.

FELIX VIRGO (Machaut)
Felix virgo, mater Christi,
Que gaudium mundo tristi
Ortu tui contulisti,
Dulcissima;
Sic hereses pervenisti,
Dum angelo credidisti
Filiumque genuisti,
Castissima.
Roga natum, piisima,
Ut pellat mala plurima
Tormentaque gravissima,
Que patimur;
Nam a gente ditissima,
Lux lucis splendidissima,
De sublimi ad infima
Deducimur;
Cunctis bonis exuimur,
Ab impiis persequimur,
Per quos, virgo, subicimur
Servitutis,
Nam sicut ceci gradimur
Nee directorem sequimur,
Sed a viis retrahimur
Nobis tutis.
Gracie fons et virtutis,
Sola nostre spes salutis,

TRIPLUM
Happy Virgin, Mother of Christ,
Who has brought joy to an unhappy
world
By your birth,
Sweetest one
Thus you destroyed the heresies
When you believed the angel
And bore a Son,
Most chaste one.
Beseech your Child, most faithful one,
That He might drive away the many
evils
And severest torments
That we endure;
For we are brought down by a most
wealthy trive,
[O] Most splendid Light of the Light,
From the heights! To the depths,
We are stripped
of all good things,
We are pursued by the impious,
Through whom we are brought under
the yoke
Of servitude.
For we make our way as if blind
And do not follow a guide,
But we are drawn back from paths!
[That are] safe for us
Fountain of grace and virtue,
Only hope of our salvation,
Have mercy on those bereft
Of help,
So that, freed from [our] sins
And led to the right path,
And our enemies destroyed,
We may have peace with joy.
MOTETUS
Inviolate Mother,
Beloved conqueress of pride
Having no peer.
Door-keeper of the celestial palace,
You who hearken the wretched,
Star of the sea,
You who comfort like a mother,
And intercede humbly on behalf of
The fallen,
Singular font of grace,
You who rule over the angels,
Swiftly prepare
a safe way for us
And help us with vigor,
Nam perimus,
Invadimur hostiliter,
Sed tuimur debiliter.
Neque scimus
Quo tendere nos possimus
Nee per quern salvi erimus
Nisi per te.
Eya! ergo poscimus,
Ut sub alis tuis simus
Et versus nos te converte.
For we perish,
We are invaded by enemies,
But weakly defended,
Nor do we know
Which way we may go,
Nor by whom we shall be saved
If not by you;
Ah! Therefore we pray
That we may be under your wings
And turn yourself toward us.

The Black Stone
[Inscribed on four faces of a six-sided
block of tufa, this is apparendy a sacred
law text. It was found quite deliberately
buried under a black marble pavement in
the Roman Forum. The text is inscribed
"boustrephedon" fashion, that is, alternat-
ing lines written left to right, right side
up, and right to left, upside down. As it
stands, although the text is really not
decipherable to any appreciable extent,
certain words such as "sakros" (sacred),
"recei" (king's), and possibly "devam"
(goddess) confirm the serious religious
nature of the inscription.]

battle on the high seas the Punic fleets and
likewise all the most mighty troops of the

father and mother, Humbert and
Luisa Ardizzoni Tosi.
Carlos and Velia Tosi have a great fondness for the Symphony. "My
mother, Luisa Ardizzoni Tosi, was an opera singer whose students sang
on the Symphony Hall stage," said Mr. Tosi. It's easy to understand
why Mr. and Mrs. Tosi chose to endow a seat in Symphony Hall in
memory of their son. Their charitable gift annuity funded the seat in
perpetuity. They both feel that this was a good investment. "It was the
easiest decision we could have made — from the heart."

TANGLEWOOD
The Tanglewood Festival
In August 1934 a group of music-loving summer residents of the Berkshires organized a
series of three outdoor concerts at Interlaken, to be given by members of the New York
Philharmonic under the direction of Henry Hadley. The venture was so successful that the
promoters incorporated the Berkshire Symphonic Festival and repeated the experiment during
the next summer.
The Festival Committee then invited Serge Koussevitzky and the Boston Symphony
Orchestra to take part in the following year's concerts. The orchestra's Trustees accepted,
and on August 13, 1936, the Boston Symphony Orchestra gave its first concerts in the
Berkshires (at Holmwood, a former Vanderbilt estate, later the Center at Foxhollow). The
series again consisted of three concerts and was given under a large tent, drawing a total of
nearly 15,000 people.
In the winter of 1936 Mrs. Gorham Brooks and Miss Mary Aspinwall Tappan offered
Tanglewood, the Tappan family estate, with its buildings and 210 acres of lawns and mead-
ows, as a gift to Koussevitzky and the orchestra. The offer was gratefully accepted, and on
August 5, 1937, the festival's largest crowd to that time assembled under a tent for the first
Tanglewood concert, an all-Beethoven program.
At the all-Wagner concert that opened the 1937 festival's second weekend, rain and
thunder twice interrupted the Rienzi Overture and necessitated the omission altogether of
the "Forest Murmurs" from Siegfried, music too delicate to be heard through the downpour.
At the intermission, Miss Gertrude Robinson Smith, one of the festival's founders, made an
appeal to raise funds for the building of a permanent structure. The appeal was broadened
by means of a printed circular handed out at the two remaining concerts, and within a short
time enough money had been raised to begin active planning for a "music pavilion."
Eliel Saarinen, the eminent architect selected by Koussevitzky, proposed an elaborate
design that went far beyond the immediate needs of the festival and, more important, went
well beyond the budget of $100,000. His second, simplified plans were still too expensive; he
finally wrote that if the Trustees insisted on remaining within their budget, they would have
"just a shed," "which any builder could accomplish without the aid of an architect." The
Trustees then turned to Stockbridge engineer Joseph Franz to make further simplifications
in Saarinen's plans in
order to lower the cost.
The building he erected
was inaugurated on the
evening of August 4,
1938, when the first
concert of that year's
festival was given, and
remains, with modifica-
tions, to this day. It has
echoed with the music
of the Boston Sym-
phony Orchestra every
After the storm of August 12, 1937, which precipitated a fundraising summer since, except
drive for the construction of the Tanglewood Shed f or ^ e war years 1942-
45, and has become almost a place of pilgrimage to millions of concertgoers. In 1959, as the
result of a collaboration between the acoustical consultant Bolt Beranek and Newman and
architect Eero Saarinen and Associates, the installation of the then-unique Edmund Hawes
Talbot Orchestra Canopy, along with other improvements, produced the Shed's present

world-famous acoustics. In 1988, on the occasion of its fiftieth anniversary, the Shed was
rededicated as "The Serge Koussevitzky Music Shed," recognizing the far-reaching vision of
the BSO's legendary music director.
In 1940, the Berkshire Music Center (now the Tanglewood Music Center) began its
operations. By 1941 the Theatre-Concert Hall, the Chamber Music Hall, and several small
studios were finished, and the festival had so expanded its activities and its reputation for
excellence that it attracted nearly 100,000 visitors.
With the Boston Symphony Orchestra's acquisition in 1986 of the Highwood estate
adjacent to Tanglewood, the stage was set for the expansion of Tanglewood's public grounds
by some 40%. A master plan developed by the Cambridge firm of Carr, Lynch, Hack and
Sandell to unite the Tanglewood and Highwood properties confirmed the feasibility of
using the newly acquired property as the site for a new concert hall to replace the outmod-
ed Theatre-Concert Hall (which was used continuously with only minor modifications
since 1941, and which with some modification has been used in recent years for the Tangle-
wood Music Center's opera productions), and for improved Tanglewood Music Center
facilities. Inaugurated on July 7, 1994, Seiji Ozawa Hall — designed by the architectural firm
William Rawn Associates of Boston in collaboration with acoustician R. Lawrence Kirke-
gaard 6c Associates of Downer's Grove, Illinois, and representing the first new concert facil-
ity to be constructed at Tanglewood in more than a half-century — now provides a modern
venue for TMC concerts, and for the varied recital and chamber music concerts offered by
the Boston Symphony Orchestra throughout the summer. Ozawa Hall with its attendant
buildings also serves as the focal point of the Tanglewood Music Center's Leonard Bernstein
Campus, as described below. Also at Tanglewood each summer, the Boston University
Tanglewood Institute sponsors a variety of programs that offer individual and ensemble
instruction to talented younger students, mostly of high school age.
Two "Special Focus" Exhibits at the Tanglewood Visitor Center
Celebrating Two Anniversaries at Tanglewood This Summer
Two "Special Focus" exhibits have been mounted by the BSO Archives at the Tangle-
wood Visitor Center this summer.
"John Williams and the BSO: A 25-Year Collaboration" cel-
ebrates Mr. Williams's 25-year relationship with the Boston
Symphony Orchestra. Mr. Williams was the nineteenth Con-
ductor of the Boston Pops from 1980 to 1993, then became
Laureate Conductor of the Boston Pops and Artist-in-Resi-
dence at Tanglewood. The exhibit features photographs and
other materials documenting this 25-year association, including concert activities, tours,
recordings with the Boston Pops Orchestra, and the recordings he made of the original
film scores for Schindler's List and Saving Private Ryan conducting members of the BSO
in Symphony Hall. The photo here is of Mr. Williams backstage at Carnegie Hall on the
occasion of his debut as Boston Pops Conductor, on January 22, 1980 (photograph by
Peter Schaaf).
This year's second "Special Focus" exhibit, "A Room for Music: Seiji Ozawa Hall Turns
Ten!," celebrating the hall's tenth anniversary this summer,
focuses on the building and construction of Seiji Ozawa Hall.
Featuring photographs, construction plans, and other memo-
rabilia, this exhibit explores the hall's architectural design and
the festivities that opened this award-winning venue ten
years ago on July 7, 1994. The photo, from June 22, 1993,
shows a steel truss being lifted into place by crane (photo-
graph by BSO Life Trustee Dean Freed).
NATHANIEL HAWTHORNE REVISITED
This summer marks the bicentennial of Nathaniel Hawthorne's birth on July 4, 1804. The
local influence of Nathaniel Hawthorne — the author of Tanglewood Tales — is clearly linked
to Tanglewood: all who enter Tanglewood via the Lion Gate see the replica of the "little
red cottage" where the Hawthorne family lived from May 1850 until November 1851, and
where he wrote The House of
the Seven Gables. In the dis-
HHH tance rises Monument Moun-
tain, where Hawthorne met
Herman Melville on a summer
outing in August 1850. Their
relationship inspired Melville's
literary ambitions, as reflected
in the epic scale of his master-
piece, Moby-Dick, dedicated to
Hawthorne "In Token of my
Admiration for his Genius."
Materials dating from
Nathaniel Hawthorne's stay
at the little red cottage are on
view in the Tanglewood Visitor
Center as part of the display documenting the early history of the Tappan family estate
(Tanglewood). The cottage was destroyed by fire in 1890. A replica duplicating the original
exterior was dedicated in July 1947. (The interior now provides classroom and studio space
for the Tanglewood Music Center.) The photo shows the 1947 dedication ceremony, with
Serge Koussevitzky seated second from left on the porch.
To commemorate the Hawthorne bicentennial, the Lenox Library has published Haw-
thorne Revisited, a collection of essays exploring this Berkshire literary legacy (available at
the library and in the Tanglewood shops). On Sunday morning, August 8, the meeting of
Hawthorne and Melville will be celebrated in a hike up Monument Mountain; anyone
interested should meet at 10 a.m. that day in the parking lot on Route 7 at the base of the
mountain. On Saturday, October 9, at 8 p.m., a gala celebration in Ozawa Hall sponsored
by Shakespeare &, Company and hosted by Mike Wallace will feature Jane Fonda, Marisa
Tomei, and David Strathairn performing and reading from Hawthorne's works. For more
information on this event, call (413) 637-1199, ext. 113.
Today Tanglewood annually draws more than 300,000 visitors. Besides the concerts of
the Boston Symphony Orchestra, there are weekly chamber music concerts, Friday-evening
Prelude Concerts, Saturday-morning Open Rehearsals, the annual Festival of Contempo-
rary Music, and almost daily concerts by the gifted young musicians of the Tanglewood
Music Center. The Boston Pops Orchestra appears annually, and the season closes with a
weekend-long Jazz Festival. The season offers not only a vast quantity of music but also a
vast range of musical forms and styles, all of it presented with a regard for artistic excellence
that makes the festival unique.
The Tanglewood Music Center
Since its start as the Berkshire Music Center in 1940, the Tanglewood Music Center has
become one of the world's most influential centers for advanced musical study. Serge Kous-
sevitzky, the Boston Symphony Orchestras music director from 1924 to 1949, founded the
Center with the intention of creating a premier music academy where, with the resources of
a great symphony orchestra at their disposal, young instrumentalists, vocalists, conductors,
and composers would sharpen their skills under the tutelage of Boston Symphony Orchestra
musicians and other specially invited artists.
The Music Center opened formally on July 8, 1940, with speeches and music. "If ever
there was a time to speak of music, it is now in the New World," said Koussevitzky, alluding
to the war then raging in Europe. Randall Thompson's Alleluia for unaccompanied chorus,
specially written for the ceremony, arrived less than an hour before the event began but made
such an impression that it continues to be performed at the opening ceremonies each sum-
mer. The TMC was Koussevitzky s pride and joy for the rest of his life. He assembled an
extraordinary faculty in composition, operatic and choral activities, and instrumental perform-
ance; he himself taught the most gifted conductors.
Koussevitzky continued to develop the Tanglewood Music Center until 1950, a year
after his retirement as the BSO's music director. Charles Munch, his successor in that posi-
tion, ran the Tanglewood Music Center from 1951 through 1962, working with Leonard
Bernstein and Aaron Copland to shape the school's programs. In 1963, new BSO Music
Director Erich Leinsdorf took over the school's reins, returning to Koussevitzky 's hands-on
leadership approach while restoring a renewed emphasis on contemporary music. In 1970,
three years before his appointment as BSO music director, Seiji Ozawa became head of the
BSO's programs at Tanglewood, with Gunther Schuller leading the TMC and Leonard
Bernstein as general advisor. Leon Fleisher served as the TMC's Artistic Director from 1985
to 1997. In 1994, with the opening of Seiji Ozawa Hall, the TMC centralized its activities
on the Leonard Bernstein Campus, which also includes the Aaron Copland Library, cham-
ber music studios, administrative offices, and the Leonard Bernstein Performers Pavilion
adjacent to Ozawa Hall. In 1997, Ellen Highstein was appointed Director of the Tanglewood
Music Center, operating under the artistic supervision of Seiji Ozawa.
The Tanglewood Music Center Fellowship Program offers an intensive schedule of study
and performance for advanced musicians who have completed all or most of their formal
training. Some 150 young artists, all attending the TMC on full fellowships which under-
write the costs of tuition, room, and board, participate in a program including chamber and
orchestral music, opera and art song, and a strong emphasis on music of the 20th and 21st
centuries. This year's first TMC Orchestra concert is under the direction of Ingo Metz-
macher, who, in his first collaboration with the TMC, leads music of Dallapiccola (honoring
that composer's centennial), Schoenberg, and Berlioz. Also this summer the TMCO per-
Programs copyright ©2004 Boston Symphony Orchestra, Inc.

forms under the batons of Kurt Masur, Rafael Friihbeck de Burgos, Robert Spano, and
James DePreist. In addition, Seiji Ozawa returns to the TMCO podium leading music of
Takemitsu and Verdi as part of the August 1 gala concert marking the 10th anniversary of
Seiji Ozawa Hall. Also in 2004, the Mark Morris Dance Group returns for its second an-
nual week-long collaboration with the TMC intertwining music and dance, culminating in
two joint MMDG/TMC performances of works choreographed by Mark Morris to music
of Vivaldi, Bartok and Bach. The TMC Opera Program returns this summer to the work
of Benjamin Britten, a composer historically associated with Serge Koussevitzky and the
Music Center — Britten's Shakespeare-inspired opera A Midsummer Nights Dream. Conduc-
tor Robert Spano once again directs the annual Festival of Contemporary Music, this year
featuring works of Bernard Rands (celebrating his 70th birthday year) and Elliott Carter
(marking his 95th birthday year), with works by the Finnish composers Salonen, Sallinen,
Saariaho, and Lindberg also highlighting the 2004 FCM programs. In another of the TMC's
new music programs, TMC composers will work throughout the summer with gifted young
film and video artists, creating short collaborative works to be presented during the Festival.
Ongoing TMC programs include seminars in the string quartet and piano quartet, and a
series of free concerts, the "Steinway Series" on Monday afternoons in the Chamber Music
Hall, highlighting works for solo piano and piano chamber music.
It would be impossible to list all of the distinguished musicians who have studied at the
Tanglewood Music Center. According to recent estimates, 20% of the members of American
symphony orchestras, and 30% of all first-chair players, studied at the TMC. Besides Seiji
Ozawa, prominent alumni of the Tanglewood Music Center include Claudio Abbado, Luciano
Berio, the late Leonard Bernstein, David Del Tredici, Christoph von Dohnanyi, the late
Jacob Druckman, Lukas Foss, John Harbison, Gilbert Kalish (who headed the TMC fac-
ulty for many years), Oliver Knussen, Lorin Maazel, Wynton Marsalis, Zubin Mehta,
Sherrill Milnes, Leontyne Price, Ned Rorem, Sanford Sylvan, Cheryl Studer, Michael
Tilson Thomas, Dawn Upshaw, Shirley Verrett, and David Zinman.
Today, alumni of the Tanglewood Music Center play a vital role in the musical life of the
nation. Tanglewood and the Tanglewood Music Center, projects with which Serge Kousse-
vitzky was involved until his death, have become a fitting shrine to his memory, a living
embodiment of the vital, humanistic tradition that was his legacy. At the same time, the
Tanglewood Music Center maintains its commitment to the future as one of the world's
most important training grounds for the composers, conductors, instrumentalists, and vocal-
ists of tomorrow.

Just (Some of) the Facts
Seiji Ozawa Hall's Florence Gould Auditorium is an 1,180-seat enclosed concert space
designed to accommodate a variety of performance, rehearsal, and recording activities at
Tanglewood, the BSO's summer home. Folding doors at the west end of the building permit
the Hall to open directly onto a lawn which provides space for at least 2,000 additional lis-
teners. With the doors closed, the Hall is also designed to serve as a recording facility.
The Leonard Bernstein Performers Pavilion adjacent to the main structure contains back-
of-house facilities encompassing a conductor's suite, dressing rooms, instrument storage
space, practice rooms, and a recording booth, all organized around a cloister-like court-
yard that can serve as a gathering place for the Tanglewood Music Center Fellows.

Reflections on Ozawa Hall — Ten Years Later
by William Rawn, FAIA
Seiji Ozawa Hall opened on July 7, 1994. William Rawn Associates, Architects, Inc., of Bos-
ton designed the building working closely with Larry Kirkegaard, Acoustician, and Theatre
Projects Consultants, Inc.. The national American Institute of Architects (AIA) awarded Seiji
Ozawa Hall an Honor Award for Architecture in 1995 and an Honor Award for Interiors in
2000, and the building was on the cover of Architecture" magazine in December 1994.
Here, William Rawn discusses some of the ideas influencing the design and reflects on the
ten years since the opening of Seiji Ozawa Hall in 1994.
Without question, the ten years since the opening of Ozawa Hall have been marked by
the special loyalty of concertgoers who attend so many performances in the Hall and by
the intensity and excellence of the performers — world-class musicians and Tanglewood
Music Center students — who have played there. For me, personally, the ten years has
been marked by the many generous comments made by friends and strangers alike.
Maybe there is an element of good New England manners here. (Who would strongly
criticize a building directly to its architect?) But the enthusiastic — and spontaneous —
response to the building has been a highlight of my professional career over the past
decade.
For an architect, each project is a hands-on learning experience. Only after develop-
ing a design, following it through working drawings, and then overseeing the construc-
tion can an architect begin to apply that learning to the next project. The act of building
is as critical as is the act of designing. This explains why architects tend to do their best
work in their sixties and seventies, the culmination of a career of constant learning.
Frank Lloyd Wright applied that learning to great buildings deep into his eighties, and
Frank Gehry is now at the top if his game well into his seventies — the opposite of
dancers and professional athletes.
The opportunity to design a building like Ozawa Hall so early in my architectural
career has had a profound impact on our practice. My life and the lives of my colleagues
have been changed by that experience. I know, too, that the buildings we are designing
now and in the future reflect the learning gained in the building of Ozawa Hall. For
this, I am deeply indebted to Tanglewood.
While I had never designed a concert hall when I began work at Tanglewood, to
compensate for that seeming inexperience, early in the project I spent three weeks in
Europe studying the spatial qualities of a dozen halls. The acoustics of a hall were obvi-
ously most important, and we were confident in our bringing Larry Kirkegaard to the
team as acoustician. But it seemed to me that the intimacy and intensity of a concert
experience were human qualities critical to the overall success of a hall. While in
Europe, I photographed; I measured; I attended concerts to get the "feel" of each hall
I visited. Larry Kirkegaard joined me at two of his favorite halls, the Concertgebouw in
Amsterdam and the Musikvereinssaal in Vienna, not only to show me first-hand the
reasons for their acoustic excellence, but also to share with me his subjective feelings for
both halls. Richard Pilbrow (Theatre Projects Consultants, Inc.) pushed us to maintain
intimacy by careful organizing of the seating, and his advice informed that trip.
What, then, explains the enthusiastic reaction of so many people to the Hall. I sus-
pect three things:
1. The acoustics are wonderful, if I can say so myself. Credit for that goes to Larry
Kirkegaard. From opening night (and Edward Rothstein's next day article in The
New York Times) to the recent book, Concert Halls and Opera Houses by Leo

Main level floor plan ofSeiji Ozawa Hall
Beranek, the acoustic accolades have been consistent. Beranek recently devel-
oped a rating system (based on interviews with conductors and performers)
which showed Ozawa Hall to be thirteenth-best in the world, fourth-best hall
in the United States, and one of the four best halls built in the last fifty years.
Larry Kirkegaard's vision and brilliance is palpable. His natural love of being the
teacher, his understanding of the necessity of teamwork between acoustician and
architect, were fundamental to the success of the building. Seiji Ozawa remarked
ten years ago that he thought the Hall sounded as good with the big barn doors
open as with the doors closed. High praise indeed for Larry's inventive solution
to a seemingly insoluble acoustic problem.
2. The Hall feels to be part of the land of the Stockbridge Bowl. Is it the curved
roof referencing the soft hills of the Berkshires? Is it the way the Hall nestles
into the landscape of the Highwood estate, choosing not to be placed at the
promontory brow of the hill but choosing a site down the hill? Of course, build-
ings do not make such choices. Architects do. Bill Porter was Master Planner
for the site and he strongly supported our decision to place the Hall in this def-
erential position. We pointed out that all the music buildings at Tanglewood
(the Shed, the Theatre, and now Ozawa Hall) were placed well back from the
brow of the hill. They defer to Tappan House and Highwood Manor House,
indeed letting them establish themselves as the Estate Houses on an estate open
to 15,000 people. The music buildings literally became the working "barns"
("sheds") of the estate.
3. The interior of the Hall, of course, gets much mention. In a way I always love it
when people — strangers and friends alike — engage me in a conversation about
the architectural intentions of the interior. A variety of theories about precedents
and sources abound. While wanting to acknowledge a range of sources for ideas
natural to any architect's work, nonetheless one idea has been constant from the
beginning. My sense of Tanglewood has always focused on the essential demo-
cratic nature of the place: that sense that it is open and accessible to anyone and
everyone. I always say: most of the week, whether it is a CEO of a Fortune 500
Company or a family visiting from 2000 miles away, everyone is welcome to
wander the "estate" and perhaps hear master classes taught by the world's lead-
ing musicians.
We wanted Ozawa Hall to share in that democratic spirit. My model was as
much a New England Meeting House as any other architectural form: the clear
and simple rectangular room, relatively unadorned, warm and welcoming, cap-
turing a democratic spirit. Attending a wedding in Strafford, Vermont, Meeting
House five years ago, I felt very strongly that I was in a space that became a
subliminal source of our architectural ideas for Ozawa Hall. Obviously there
are differences: the teak and Douglas fir; the joinery; the wood patterns which
combine the gridded formality of the balcony fronts with the informality of the
summer breezes wafting through those grilles; the fact that from almost any seat
you can see outside, not only to the sky but to the green of trees and lawn. All
these elements modulate the strict interpretation of Ozawa Hall as Meeting
House. But the spirit remains. To see how audience and performers react to the
Hall, reaffirms this special democratic — and perhaps very American — spirit of
the place.
What I love today is what has happened in the Hall and how people have used the
Hall in ways almost unimaginable. The way people congregate in the arcades at inter-
mission, catching up with their friends, gazing quietly at the landscape; the way the
Tanglewood Music Center (TMC) concerts have become so popular with visitors and
cognoscenti alike (remember how we worried about small audiences for TMC recitals
and how we organized the space so that it could feel "full" even with a small audience);
how the Hall accommodates the inventions of the Contemporary Music Festival, or,
more recently, the never-imagined inventions of a Mark Morris dance performance.
This sense of a living and growing Hall, always expanding its vision, always surprising,
is special.
There is a saying in the law that "hard cases can make bad law." In a similar but
more positive vein, the experience at Ozawa Hall has proved to me that a supportive
and collaborative client makes great buildings. And here all the credit goes to the BSO
organization. George Kidder, then President, asked Dean Freed (the BSO Trustee who
chaired the BSO's Building and Grounds Committee at that time; now a BSO Life
Trustee), the late BSO Overseer Haskell Gordon, and Dan Gustin (at that time the
BSO's Manager of Tanglewood and BSO Assistant Managing Director) to be the three-
person committee directing me, my colleagues Alan Joslin and Clifford Gayley, and
John Fish of Suffolk Construction Company. In addition, Kidder asked Robert Campbell
to be architectural adviser to that committee. The four-member BSO group (which
sadly was reduced to three by Haskell's untimely death halfway through the project)
brought a spirit of teamwork that inspired us, pushed us, nurtured us. That collaborative
spirit — call it the architectural equivalent of musical ensemble — is celebrated by this
building.
To the BSO, to all the musicians who have performed there, and to the audiences
who have supported the Hall for the past ten years, I offer my deepest thanks.

In the past decade, William Rawn's architectural work with concert halls and theaters has
expanded considerably. Both the Sorenson Theater at Babson College and the Koka Booth
Amphitheatre in Cary, North Carolina, won design awards from the United States Institute for
Theatre Technology. The Strathmore Concert Hall in Bethesda, MD (a 2,000-seat enclosed
concert hall serving as the second home for the Baltimore Symphony Orchestra) and the Wil-
liams College Class of '62 Center for Theatre and Dance (with three separate theater venues)
will open in the spring of 2005. William Rawn Associates, Architects, also has projects on a
number of important college and university campuses nationwide, as well as three large-scale
public projects under design — the United States Courthouse, Cedar Rapids, IA; the Cambridge
(MA) Public Library, and the Green Music Center at Sonoma State University, CA.

Creating a "New" Tanglewood
by Robert Campbell
Robert Campbell, architectural critic for The Boston Globe, was Architectural Advisor to the
BSO's Design Committee for the building ofSeiji Ozawa Hall. He originally wrote this essay
for the souvenir book A Room For Music" produced in conjunction with the Hall's opening
in 1994.
It began with the land. In December 1986 the size of Tanglewood suddenly and unex-
pectedly doubled, with the acquisition, from the Mason Harding family, of the High-
wood estate next door.
You couldn't walk out onto this new piece of land without noticing a long, gentle
slope of field, back behind the house, that terminated in a natural backdrop of pines.
You couldn't help feeling that Providence must have created that slope in the hope that
someone, some day, would sit there listening to music, as it drifted out from somewhere
among the pines. Even before Highwood became available, the decision had already
been made to build a new concert hall at Tanglewood. The old Theatre-Concert Hall,
across the lawn from the Koussevitzky Music Shed, was becoming derelict and inade-
quate. A preliminary design for a new concert hall was actually created by another
architect. When Highwood became available all this work came to a screeching halt.
The BSO realized, at once, that it needed professional help to assess the potential of the
new property. It hired the nationally known Cambridge firm of Carr, Lynch, Hack 8c
Sandell as site planners. Bill Porter and Catherine Verhulst of that office took charge of
the job. They quickly confirmed everyone's early intuition: the grassy slope at Highwood
was the right place for the new concert hall.
Porter and Verhulst pointed out other things, too. They noticed that a single unbro-
ken ridge of lawn extended from the old Tanglewood property right through the new
estate, all of it with a view of the Stockbridge Bowl to the south. They called this ridge
the "performance plateau" and conceived it as a means of uniting the old campus with
the new. They noticed that if the new concert hall were placed down the slope from this
plateau, it would stand in the same relation to Highwood Manor House as the Shed
does to the Tanglewood Manor House. There would be a sort of visual rhyme: Tangle-
wood Manor and its Shed, Highwood Manor and its concert hall. The new estate would
immediately feel like Tanglewood.
Porter and Verhulst did many other things. They surveyed the property and declared
most of it a protected wedand. With what remained, besides the site for the concert hall,
they created a new string of roads and parking lots, carefully nestled among the existing
woodlands, to relieve pressure on the old traffic patterns. They renovated the former
carriage barn into offices and studios for some of Tanglewood's staff and faculty. They
removed the Box Lot parking from the performance plateau and raised the grade of this
part of the lawn by several feet, using material excavated for the new concert hall, in
order to improve views into the shed. They developed a landscape plan for all of Tangle-
wood, new and old. And they found locations for, and then designed, new gates, rest
rooms, utilities, practice studios, snack booths, ticket booths, paths, plantings, a new gift
shop, a new lawn cafe, and much else that was needed to transform the Highwood es-
tate into a true working part of Tanglewood.
But the centerpiece of the new Tanglewood would be, of course, the new concert
hall. Because of the new site, it was decided to make a fresh start in planning for this
facility. Several nationally known architects were interviewed before the selection of a
relative newcomer, William Rawn of Boston, as the designer. Rawn impressed the selec-
tion committee by the time and care he devoted to visiting and studying Tanglewood,
11
and especially by the verbal eloquence with which he was able to invoke Tanglewood's
essential magic.
Endless debates ensued. How many seats should the new hall have? Twelve hundred,
give or take, it was finally decided. Where, precisely, should it stand? Rawn persuaded
everyone it should be pushed far enough up the slope so as not to feel remote. Should
it, like its predecessor, serve for both opera and concerts? No, it was determined: Now
that it would be possible to preserve the old Theatre-Concert Hall, it made better sense
to convert the older building for opera in the future.
But the critical issue of the debate was over a different issue. Should the new hall be
suitable for recording purposes? If so, it would have to be a much heavier, much more
solid acoustic shell than anything else at Tanglewood. It would be a new and different
kind of building altogether, and a costlier one too. The decision eventually fell in favor
of recording, and the building began, in Rawn's office, to assume its present shape.
It was exciting to watch the hall as it evolved over time in a long series of discussions,
drawings, and models. Two BSO Board members, Dean Freed and the late Haskell
Gordon, participated in virtually every meeting and contributed a great deal to the
shaping of the hall. So did the BSO's Tanglewood Manager Dan Gustin and Tangle-
wood Music Center Administrator Richard Ortner, among many others. Rawn traveled
through Europe to look at famous halls. He returned with a determination to create not
an auditorium, in which the performers on the stage are quite separate from the audi-
ence, but rather a more congenial, more sociable space in which the performers and the
audience would gather together as if in a large room. The audience would sit on three
sides, and up on balconies too, so that its members could look across at one another,
enjoying the ritual pleasure of assembling. They would sit in informal chairs, as if on a
Shaker porch. A big opening at the rear would open to the sloping lawn, in the Tangle-
wood tradition, where hundreds could sit and see and hear. Above this opening, there
would be a musician's gallery, a place for a fanfare before the performance.
Too often, when an architect and an acoustician collaborate, one or the other domi-
nates. In the case of Seiji Ozawa Hall something very different occurred. Rawn and his
mm

acoustician, Lawrence Kirkegaard — himself trained as an architect — developed a give-
and-take working relationship in which each seemed to be trying to optimize the other's
goals. The building acquired the massive walls and ceiling that Kirkegaard needed to
reflect the bass notes. But it also acquired a remarkable sense of light and air. Glass-
block windows served to contain the sound, while simultaneously permitting views out
to the sky. Broken-up surfaces of wall and ceiling, necessary for blending and dispersing
the sound, took the form of handsome architectural coffers, bays, and corrugations.
As it finally took form, and as it now has been built, Seiji Ozawa Hall is a building
with an exterior that is a reddish blend of several shades of brick. The brick isn't the
usual machine-cut type but a more irregular, richly textured variety made by casting
each brick separately. It is trimmed in red sandstone imported from India, with Alaskan
yellow cedar at the exterior galleries. The round vaulted roof is lead-coated copper. The
overall impression is of a building that looks both durable and purposeful, commanding
its site without looking in any way grand. It is angled slightly toward the Highwood
manor house — an angle, as it happens, that is identical with that of the Shed. Connected
with it, at the rear, is a smaller pavilion for the musicians, framed and surfaced in wood,
where dressing and practice rooms ring four sides of an interior courtyard with a con-
tinuous porch for informal socializing. The musicians' pavilion is like a tugboat pushing
the liner of Ozawa Hall. Together, the two buildings share a modest entry court.
Indoors, Seiji Ozawa Hall is made of stucco walls painted a warm off-white. Two
tiers of balcony line three sides, faced with railings in teak. The ceiling is of pre-cast
concrete coffers whose natural color is the same as that of the walls. Above the ceiling,
beneath the copper vault, is the mechanical room, with fans for air changes and modest
air-conditioning of the stage and its instruments. On the stage, the musicians sit on a
stepped terrace floor, the elements of which can be telescoped back beneath one another
when a flat floor is needed. The terrace is Kirkegaard's invention and allows the orches-
tra members to be easily visible to one another and to the audience.
Behind the stage is a balcony for choruses. If desired, the hall can be reversed for
intimate performances, in which case this balcony becomes seating for a small audience,
and the musician performs against a temporary movable backdrop. Invisible behind all
this, within the walls and above the ceiling, is the structural skeleton of steel columns,
beams, and trusses.
Seen purely as architecture, Ozawa Hall is hard to categorize simply. Architect Rawn
has little patience with passing fads or styles, but he does possess a strong urge to accom-
modate new buildings within the traditions of the past. Ozawa Hall's interior is a tradi-
tional shoebox shape, like Symphony Hall in Boston. Details like the coffered ceiling
and gridded balcony rails can't exactly be called ornamental, but they do embody a
memory, simplified as befits a country setting, of the gilded and sculptured interiors of
the past. Outdoors, the wood galleries recall the long lazy porches of resorts and summer
camps, and the big brick shape suggests the great rural mills of New England. Taken as
a whole, Seiji Ozawa Hall reminds this writer of only one other building, a personal
favorite, the tiny but monumental church of Santa Maria dei Miracoli in Venice, another
powerful, round-vaulted, self-confident shape.
Summer has come to Tanglewood now. The leaves are on the trees and the breeze
drifts cool off the Stockbridge Bowl. The unsuspecting visitor will arrive, unaware that
the beloved Tanglewood is, suddenly, twice as big, twice as wonderful. It will be as if
you sat down to a small-screen black and white movie, only to watch it explode into
wide-screen color. On that new and larger screen, Seiji Ozawa Hall takes its place as the
central figure in the newest act of the ever-unfolding drama that is Tanglewood.

IN TRIBUTE TO FLORENCE GOULD
Florence Gould
Florence Lacaze
Gould onboard
the S.S. Normamfie
during ils maiden
voyage, 1935.
Florence Lacaze Gould, for whom the Florence Gould Auditorium in Seiji Ozawa
Hall is named, was born in San Francisco to French parents in 1895. The San Francisco
earthquake of 1906
destroyed her father's
printing house, and
the family returned
to France. Florence
arrived not speaking
a word of French,
but she was quick,
intelligent, and mu-
sically gifted, and by
the age of sixteen she
was studying voice
at the Paris Conser-
vatory. Although she
asserted throughout
her life that she "had
not a drop of Ameri-
can blood," she remained a U.S. citizen until her death in 1983.
Florence returned to San Francisco with her new husband, an American architect, at
the outbreak of World War I, but the marriage did not last and she returned to France
in 1917. Following the Armistice, she recommenced her musical studies, and was often
to be found singing in the salons of Paris, along with the likes of the famous Parisian
entertainer Collette. It was at such an event that she caught the eye of Frank Jay Gould,
son of the American railroad magnate Jay Gould. The two were married in 1923 and, at
her husband's request, Florence gave up her singing career.
The Goulds were at the center of social life in the South of France during the 1920s
and 1930s, where they attracted an international crowd of socialites, artists, and writers.
They remained in France throughout World War II, during which time Florence served
as a nurse and established a famous literary salon that became a center of intellectual life
in wartime Paris. It was also at this time that she became a patron of contemporary
painters, Braque and Picasso among them, and began amassing an extraordinary collec-
tion of modern art.
Frank Gould died in 1956, leaving an enormous fortune to his wife. Florence Gould
continued her philanthropy to the arts, and was awarded the Legion d'Honneur by
French President Charles de Gaulle in 1961. The guests of her salon tended no longer
to be rebellious, avant-garde intellectuals, but, instead, great established personages,
many of them members of the Academic She also surrounded herself with the leading
European and American art collectors, dealers, and cultural leaders. At the time of her
death, her art collection included works by Bonnard, Cassat, Cezanne, Corot, Degas,
Gaugin, Toulouse-Lautrec, Manet, Monet, Pissarro, Renoir, and Van Gogh. The major-
ity of the proceeds from the sale of her estate was given to the Florence Gould Foun-
dation, the principal purpose of which is to foster Franco- American amity and collabo-
ration. The Florence Gould Foundation endowed the auditorium of Seiji Ozawa Hall,
naming it in honor of Mrs. Gould, in 1990, and similarly has named other cultural
facilities throughout the United States and in France. The Foundation also has endowed
a Fellowship at the Tanglewood Music Center for the benefit of talented young French
musicians.

SEIJI OZAWA HALL, 1994-2003
A Concise Performance History of the BSO's Recital Series
In addition to the concerts presented each summer by the Tanglewood Music Center,
the Boston University Tanglewood Institute, and the Boston Symphony Chamber
Players, as well as the annual Festival of Contemporary Music, and the regular Friday-
night Prelude Concerts performed by members of the BSO, frequent guest artists, and
the Tanglewood Festival Chorus, the following recitalists and ensembles have been fea-
tured in the BSO's weeknight (and occasional Sunday- night) recital series in Florence
Gould Auditorium during Ozawa Hall's first ten years.
Seiji Ozawa Hall also serves as the primary venue for Tanglewood's annual Jazz
Festival each Labor Day Weekend (see page 21); as a recording venue; and as a venue
for such important Berkshire community functions as graduation ceremonies, fund-
raising events, and concerts by local ensembles.

NOTES ON THE PROGRAM
Some Words from John Williams
It's hard to believe that it's twenty- five years since I became part of what we think of so
fondly and meaningfully, in Boston and here at Tanglewood, as the BSO family. Yet my
years in Los Angeles and Hollywood take me back even far-
ther than that, and it's there that the jazz ensemble version of
My Fair Lady you're hearing tonight originated.
One of the great artists I've been privileged to work with
was the late, great, innovative and influential jazz drummer
Shelly Manne. It was Shelly Manne who in 1956 made the
very first recording of music from a Broadway show translated
into the idiom of jazz — Lerner and Loewe's My Fair Lady,
which he recorded with bassist Leroy Vinnegar and (another
name needing no introduction) pianist Andre Previn. Eight
years later he turned to My Fair Lady again, asking me to pro-
duce an expanded version for singers and jazz ensemble. That version was issued on
23
Capitol Records in October 1964 with "Shelly Manne: His Men, and orchestra" and
vocals by Jack Sheldon and Irene Krai.
It gives me great pleasure to share this music with you tonight, and to share the
stage of Ozawa Hall this evening with so many of today's great artists from the worlds
of jazz, Broadway, and the recording studios. And to make this music for you in this
wonderful Ozawa Hall only adds to the joy of the event. I hope tonight's concert brings
you as much joy as it does the rest of us.
— John Williams
Inspired by George Bernard Shaw's "Pygmalion," Lerner and Loewes "My Fair Lady" opened
on Broadway on March 15, 1956, with Julie Andrews and Rex Harrison. Shelly Manne
(1920-1984) recorded John Williams s jazz ensemble arrangement of "My Fair Lady" in late
July/early August 1964 at the Capitol Tower, Studio A, in Hollywood, California, and the LP
album hit the stores on October 5 that year. The following is excerpted and somewhat revised
from the original liner notes for that recording, which was produced by David Cavanaugh.
If you can remember back to when you first heard the original Broadway cast version of
My Fair Lady, you'll probably recall that it struck you as being not only very, very good,
but also very, very different. Now, you're likely to have these same reactions to Shelly
Manne's highly-original UN-original cast version. It's an unusual, imaginative produc-
tion that brings this great score into new jazz focus and puts it
right on the street where you live!
For openers there's an inventive overture that presents a
taste of what's coming from Johnny Williams's excitingly
modern arrangements and impresario Manne's provocative
players. The vocal stars of this cast give us a hip, easy-voiced
Professor Henry Higgins (and any other male roles that need
filling), and a cool, cockneyless Eliza Doolittle. "Why Can't
the English," "I'm an Ordinary Man," and "You Did It" retain
all of their original flair for humor; we get "Wouldn't It Be
Loverly" and "Show Me" in superb modern-day Doolittle; and
the two get together on "The Rain in Spain" for an exercise in
a kind of elocution that just didn't exist in Shaw's day. Instrumentally, there's taste,
freshness, excitement, and a multiplicity of modern sounds, to say the least.
My Fair Lady with the UN-original cast opened for business at record stores all over
the country on October 5, 1964. That time, however, the entire cast joined as one in the
hope that there would be no "record breaking" — not even by Messrs. Lerner and Loewe.
Because, let's face it, just like My Fair Lady, ]2lzz is here to stay!

John Williams
In January 1980 John Williams — who this year celebrates his 25th year as
a member of the BSO family — was named nineteenth Conductor of the
Boston Pops Orchestra since its founding in 1885. He assumed the title of
Boston Pops Laureate Conductor following his retirement in December
1993 and holds the title of Artist-in-Residence at Tanglewood. Born in
New York, Mr. Williams attended UCLA, studied composition privately
with Mario Castelnuovo-Tedesco, and attended the Juilliard School, where
he studied piano with Madame Rosina Lhevinne. He worked as a jazz
pianist before beginning his career in the film studios, where he worked with such composers
as Bernard Herrmann, Alfred Newman, and Franz Waxman. He went on to work in televi-
sion in the 1960s, winning two Emmy awards for his work. John Williams has composed the
music and served as music director for more than 90 films, including the Harry Potter movies,

Private Ryan, Amistad, Schindlers List, Jurassic Park, Born on the Fourth of July, the Indiana
Jones films, E.T. (the Extra-Terrestrial), Superman, Close Encounters of the Third Kind, Jaws,
and Goodbye, Mr. Chips. His most recent film scores are Harry Potter and the Prisoner of
Azkaban and Steven Spielberg's The Terminal. He has received 42 Academy Award nomina-
tions, and has been awarded five Oscars, three British Academy Awards, eighteen Grammys,
four Emmys, and three Golden Globes, as well as several gold and platinum records. Mr.
Williams served as Grand Marshal of the 2004 Tournament of Roses parade. Upcoming

Symphony Orchestra, the Boston Pops Orchestra, and the Tanglewood Music Center Or-
chestra, participating in the Seiji Ozawa Hall 10th Anniversary Celebration Gala and Tan-
glewood on Parade as well as leading this week's performances of his own arrangement of

Seiji Ozawa's 25th anniversary as BSO music director. Many of Mr. Williams's film scores
have been released as recordings; the soundtrack album to Star Wars has sold more than four
million copies. He has also led a highly acclaimed series of albums with the Boston Pops
Orchestra on Philips and Sony Classical. Mr. Williams has led the Boston Pops Orchestra
and the Boston Pops Esplanade Orchestra on tour. He has conducted the Boston Sym-
phony Orchestra both at Symphony Hall and at Tanglewood and has appeared as guest
conductor with many orchestras. With the BSO and violinist Gil Shaham, Mr. Williams
has recorded his Violin Concerto, TreeSong, and Three Pieces from Schindler's List on
Deutsche Grammophon.
Dianne Reeves
As a result of her unique vocal stylings, Dianne Reeves has garnered a
large following and tremendous critical acclaim throughout the world.
While her singing is steeped in tradition, Reeves is taking bold new steps
with her strong, agile voice, rhythmic virtuosity, and astounding improvi-
sational ease. Recognized as one of jazz's preeminent vocalists, Dianne
Reeves is the only artist to have won the Grammy for Best Jazz Vocal
Performance for three consecutive recordings — in this case, her most
recent three recordings: A little Moonlight in 2003 — produced by Arif
Mardin (Aretha Franklin, Nora Jones) — The Calling in 2001, and In The Moment-Live in
Concert in 2000. In fact, Ms. Reeves is the only recording artist in any singing category to
have accomplished such a feat with three records in a row. In 2003, Ms. Reeves became the
first internationally renowned jazz artist to perform in Qatar. She also received an honorary
doctorate from the Berklee College of Music and, on New Year's Eve, performed a program
of Gershwin with the Berlin Philharmonic conducted by Simon Rattle — a concert broadcast
live throughout much of Europe and the Far East. Named the Creative Chair for Jazz for the
Los Angeles Philharmonic, a newly established position, Ms. Reeves oversees the scheduling

Carl Saunders
Carl Saunders is considered by jazz listeners living in the Los Angeles area and musicians
worldwide to be one of the finest trumpet players around today. He was born in 1942 in
Indianapolis, and his first five years were mostly spent on the road. His uncle was trumpeter-
bandleader Bobby Sherwood; his mother Gail (Bobby's sister) sang for the Sherwood
Orchestra and Stan Kenton, among others. When Carl was five, he and his mother settled in
Los Angeles, living with Carl's aunt Caroline and her husband, tenor-saxophonist Dave Pell.
Mr. Saunders was influenced by trumpeter Don Fagerquist of the Dave Pell Octet. He began
playing trumpet in seventh grade, and after he graduated high school his mother helped get
him a job with Stan Kenton's Orchestra. He auditioned for Kenton's band and was given a
choice: wait for the first opening in the trumpet section, or join the band immediately as a
member of the mellophonium section. He chose the latter and spent much of 1961-62 on
the road with Stan Kenton. After spending part of 1962-63 traveling with Bobby Sher-
wood's group (playing drums), he settled in Las Vegas, where during the next twenty years
he played with a countless number of show bands and worked with such artists as Ella Fitz-
gerald, Tony Bennett, and Frank Sinatra. He traveled as a lead player with Paul Anka and
Robert Goulet and with such bandleaders as Si Zentner, Harry James, Maynard Ferguson,
Benny Goodman, and Charlie Barnet. In 1984 he moved to Los Angeles, where he joined
Bill Holman's Orchestra as lead trumpet, a position he still holds. He has also worked with
Supersax, the big bands of Bob Florence and Gerald Wilson, and the Phil Norman Tentet.
In 1994 he became a member of the Dave Pell Octet (in Don Fagerquist s old chair). He also
leads his own groups, including the Carl Saunders Big Band, a sextet, and a quartet. His CD
■

Out Of The Blue features him in quartet and sextet settings; on Eclecticism he is joined by
twenty-five strings and three French horns. His most recent release is Bebop Big Band, on the
Sea Breeze label. Carl Saunders also enjoys working with kids and conducting clinics.
Gary Foster
Gary Foster is a graduate of Kansas University. He lives in Los Angeles, where he is a free-
lance musician performing on clarinet, saxophone, and flute. He has performed and recorded

tos, and Poncho Sanchez. Gary may be heard on Toni Tennille's More Than You Know and
All of Me; numerous recordings of Barbra Streisand and Natalie Cole; MelTorme's Reunion

NOTES ON THE PROGRAM
A program pairing the introverted, allusive Claude Debussy with the extroverted, dem-
onstrative Franz Liszt would seem to be a study in opposites, if not irreconcilables. The
relationship between these composers, however, is far more complex. Debussy, after all,
has his storms, as Liszt his reveries, and technically speaking, Debussy's piano style is
unimaginable without Liszt's previous innovations. Moreover, the two composers, de-
spite their disparate temperaments, share a flair for piano coloration of stunning pictorial
vividness.
Producing three major sonata-like piano triptychs between 1903 and 1908 (his Es-
tampes and first two sets of Images), Claude Debussy (1862-1918) subsequently moved
toward further expressive refinement, distillation and com-
pression. This tendency climaxed in twenty-four Preludes for
piano. The first set of a dozen appeared in 1909-10; the sec-
ond group, generally marked by even more complexity and
subtlety of exposition and construction, followed in 1912-13.
Paradoxically, the Preludes are short without being small,
economical rather than abbreviated. Their sound portraiture
achieves the richness of full-sized oil paintings. Here Debussy
largely dispensed with flamboyant pianism, and with this tech-
nical orientation, the Preludes stand midway between concert
hall fare and domestic music to be savored by the player alone.
They also straddle established categories in that they are — and, at the same time, are
not — program music: Debussy heads them with uninformative Roman numerals; only
beneath the final bars of each piece does he provide its "title" in parentheses, preceded
by three ellipsis points. His program, he thus suggests, has been dictated by the music.

No. 1 {Brouillards — "Mists") presents murky middle-register swirls through which a
theme in bald octaves looms with indistinct menace, while Feuilles mortes ("Dead Leaves")
exploits the bleak emotional atmosphere created by close-spaced chromatic chords.
Debussy's beloved Hispanic colors suffuse Lapuerta del vino ("The Vino Gateway"):
inspired by a picture postcard of the Alhambra, the music is a sultry habanera, not with-
out moments of lively impishness.
The purling, high-register figurations and extended trills of No. 4 (. ..Les fees sont
d'exquises danseuses — "Fairies are exquisite dancers") suggest the gossamer residue of a
waltz mercurially liberated of ballroom trappings. The ensuing Bruyeres ("Heaths") bears
an interesting similarity to a famous Book I prelude (The Girl with the Flaxen Hair): it
is a loving woodland sketch of unashamedly serene sentimentality. In General Lavine —
eccentric, Debussy evokes the antics of a real-life clown with sforzando pratfalls and a
rollicking music-hall tune fragment that makes willful attempts to return in the wrong
key.
In No. 7 {La terrasse des audiences du clair de lune — "The Reception Terrace by Moon-
light"), Debussy mines two of his favorite topoi — moonlight and Orientalism — building
a narrative where coloristic remoteness slowly yields to passion. Glimmering water
effects inform Ondine, as Lydian-mode aspects of its ultra-delicate theme breathe an
atmosphere at once exotic and supernatural. Debussy's Anglophilia (an unusual trait for
a Frenchman) genially emerges in Hommage a S. Pickwick Esq., PPM.PG; an initial ref-
erence to "God Save the King" summons Dickens' hero in all his loveable bumptious-
ness. No. 10 (Canope) revisits the mystical, mysterious world of vanished antiquity, evok-
ing an imperial resort of the Egyptian Pharaohs. The abstractly conceived Les tierces
alternees ("Alternating thirds") begins by propounding a paradox, but develops into a
moto perpetuo of unclouded cheer. Designing Feux d 'artifice ("Fireworks") as a grand
finale, Debussy revels in a veritable orgy of contrasting piano effects. A quote from the
Marseillaise indicates that this is, indeed, a Bastille Day display.
Franz Liszt (1811-1886) traveled extensively during his twenties. Spending much of
1835-36 in Switzerland and large portions of the next three years in Italy, he attempted
to capture his impressions of various locales in a series of meditative and descriptive
scores called Annies de Pelerinage ("Years of Pilgrimage"). After much revision, Volume I
of these pieces, designated as the Swiss "year," reached print in 1853; Volume II, Italy,
was not ready until 1859. Over the decade between 1867 and 1877, Liszt assembled a
third volume oiAnnees de Pelerinage, not associated with any
specific country but dominated by Italian impressions. "Les
Jeux d'eaux a la Villa d'Este," No. 4 of this third collection,
dates from 1870. Inspired by a famous Roman array of foun-
tains, it is a "water piece" of prophetically impressionistic rich-
ness. Sunny middle-register melody appears beneath shifting
arpeggio cascades that aspire to the inexhaustibly varied iri-
descence found in the play of fountains. At a grandiose cli-
max, melodic oratory alternates with brilliant liquid arpeggia-
tion, and the oratory has the last word.
In his Ballade No. 2 in B minor (1853), Liszt plied one of
his favorite genres — the programmatic one-movement tone poem designed to provide
both the variety and unity of a sonata or symphony. He drew his program from Gott-
fried Burger's once widely read Gothic horror ballad Lenore. Punctuated with the grisly
refrain "The dead ride quickly! Are you afraid," the poem tells of Lenore's wild hun-
dred-mile midnight ride with the zombie of her recently slain soldier-fiance, toward a
35
cemetery where their nuptials are solemnized amid a riotous gathering of skeletons and
specters. The Ballade is based largely on two themes: a broad opening melody under-
pinned by menacing rumbles, and a luminous ensuing chordal meditation. These themes
are repeated a half-step lower; then march-like triplet-rhythms unleash a flood of virtu-
osity. Eventually Liszt transforms the opening melody into a rocking major-key canta-
bile and reiterates this with ever more grandiose exultation. The luminous chords pro-
vide a contemplative close.
In Liszt's era, operatic transcriptions for various instruments or ensembles constitut-
ed an indispensable part of musical culture. Except in large cities, opera performances
were rare and did not begin to cover the full range of the stage repertory; thus it was
only through transcriptions that listeners could become acquainted with new and classic
musical dramas. For example, in late 1848 Liszt undertook plans to conduct a mod-
ernistic novelty in Weimar — Wagner's four-year old opera Tannhduser — and by the time
the production appeared in February 1849, Weimar listeners were familiar with Tann-
hduser highlights, thanks to piano transcriptions Liszt had made of the overture and
several key episodes. These included Wolfram's Act III recitative and romance "O du
mein holder Abendstern" (the so-called "Song to the Evening Star"), a lyric paean to
the purity, chastity, and brilliance of the planet Venus and the deity it represents. De-
parting only occasionally from fidelity to the orchestral score, Liszt presents the melody
in its original lyric-baritone register surrounded by Wagner's strummed harp chords,
and adds a modest coda of his own devising.
Similar fidelity marks Liszt's 1867 transcription of Isolde's concluding Liebestod
("Love-death") from Wagner's Tristan und Isolde, penned only two years after the opera's
premiere. Liszt provides his own extremely brief introduction, then brings us Wagner's
magnificent peroration unchanged musically — a task that, given the complexity of Wag-
ner's orchestral textures, Liszt could only achieve thanks to his sovereign mastery of un-
usual keyboard techniques.
Liszt allowed himself more leeway in his 1859 transcription of the show-stopping
last-act quartet from Verdi's Rigoletto (1851). Again inventing his own introduction,
Liszt opens with humorous foretastes of two of Verdi's subsidiary themes, then proceeds
to a glittering array of virtuoso arpeggios. Verdi's famous melody initially appears in its

NOTES ON THE PROGRAM
Gioachino Rossini's musical talent was encouraged by his parents, who were both pro-
fessional musicians. By age eight Rossini (1792-1868) was playing viola in a theater
orchestra and learning to play the horn; by age ten he was taking composition lessons.
He appeared professionally as a singer from 1804. In 1806 he entered the Liceo Musi-
cale in Bologna, where he became familiar with music of Haydn and Mozart and stud-
ied formal counterpoint. He became director of the Accademia dei Concordi in 1808
and in 1810, at eighteen, received his first opera commission, having become known in
the theater for his insertion arias, written for specific performers for inclusion in the
operas of other composers. From that time he composed nearly forty operas before his
"retirement" from that activity in 1830 due in part to his own
exhaustion and to political instability in Europe. His last
opera was Guillaume Tell, first performed in August 1829. He
was by that time quite rich, and the most celebrated composer
in Europe.
Rossini's six "sonate a quattro" for two violins, cello, and
double bass date from the year the future great Italian opera
composer turned twelve. He wrote all six while staying with
his family at the villa of the businessman Agostino Triossi in
Conventello, near Ravenna, during the summer of 1804. In a
note scribbled on the manuscript at a much later date, the
composer wrote, "six dreadful sonatas. . .composed and copied out in three days and per-
formed by Triossi, double bass, Morri, his cousin, first violin, the latter's brother, violon-
cello, who played like dogs, and the second violin by me myself, who was not the least

doggish, by God." The arrangements for wind quartet were made by Walter Zachert.
The first, originally in G, has been transposed to F. Even beyond the ensemble's make-
up, the originals have little in common with the classical examples of the string quartet,
coming more from the Italian tradition in which a primary melody (usually appearing in
the flute in these versions) is supported not by contrapuntal means (as in Mozart and
Haydn) but by chordal or arpeggiated figuration. Already in the first of the set, however,
we can hear in Rossini's charming and inventive melodies the seeds of his famous arias
to come.
— Robert Kirzinger
Robert Kirzinger is Publications Associate of the Boston Symphony Orchestra.
To judge from its opus number alone, the G major string quintet of Antonin Dvorak
(1841-1904) must have been composed after the Scherzo capriccioso (Opus 66), the Sev-
enth Symphony (Opus 70), and the second set of Slavonic Dances (Opus 72) — in short,
a work of the mature Dvorak . That is exactly what the composer's publisher Simrock
wanted prospective purchasers to think. Actually the quintet had been written more than
ten years earlier than its published opus number would suggest. The composer himself
called it Opus 18 and objected strenuously, if fruitlessly, to Simrock's deceit. He turned
to this unusual medium — a string quintet with double bass — after finishing his one-act
opera The Stubborn Lovers early in 1875. The quintet was completed by March and sub-
mitted (anonymously, as the rules required) to a musical competition; the manuscript
bore only the inscription "To his country." Selected unani-
mously, the work received its first performance the following
March. The judges who first saw the manuscript awarded it
the prize on account of its "noble theme, the technical mastery
of polyphonic composition, the mastery of form and . . . knowl-
edge of the instruments." At that time it had five movements,
an Intermezzo in B standing in second place. But Dvorak de-
cided that two slow movements overdid it, so he removed the
Intermezzo and later published it separately as the Nocturne
for strings, Opus 40.
The player benefiting most from the presence of the dou-
ble bass is the cellist, who, freed from customary duties of harmonic support, has a much
greater opportunity to range widely in the thematic interplay of the lines. As if to define
the unusual ensemble from the very outset, cello and double bass open the proceedings
with the bass line descending in octaves, a sonority not possible for a string quartet, or
even for a quintet with two cellos (like Schubert's C major). Once this unique feature
has been established in the listener's ear, the cello parts company from the double bass
and projects its own personality. Dvorak's first and last movements are lively, if some-
what square in the working out of musical ideas. The bouncy scherzo dances jovially
into a gentler Trio with some charming irregularities of phrasing. The slow movement's
unfettered lyricism makes it in many ways the high point of the work.

Argentine-born American composer Osvaldo Golijov (b.1960) spent his early years
absorbing a rich blend of musical experiences in his native La Plata. Classical chamber
music was played at home, and he also experienced Jewish liturgical music and klezmer
music through his family influences. A strong formative expe-
rience came when he discovered the new tango of Astor Piaz-
zolla. He studied piano and later took private lessons in com-
position from Gerardo Gandini, then with Mark Kopytman
at the Rubin Academy of Jerusalem and with Franco Dona-
toni at the Accademia Musicale Chigiana in Siena. In 1986
he came to the United States, where he earned his doctorate
at the University of Pennsylvania; his teachers there included
George Crumb, Richard Wernick, and Jay Reise. He was a
Fellow in Composition at the Tanglewood Music Center in
1990, where he studied with Lukas Foss and Oliver Knussen,
and where in recent years he has returned as a faculty member. He is Associate Pro-
fessor of Music at the College of the Holy Cross in Worcester and is also on the faculty
of the Boston Conservatory.
Also in recent years Golijov has been exploring what he calls the "roots and emana-
tions of different musics," drawing up sound imagery from his own wide-ranging back-
ground, including Jewish folk traditions as well as tango and other Latin American gen-
res. These often become the starting point for his writing, though they appear in his
work in different stages of transformation, turning into something else entirely or even
disappearing altogether, though remaining as the basic ground for the varied textures
and musical "behaviors" in his compositions.
Golijov came to wide attention first through his connection with the Kronos Quar-
tet, who performed original works, commissioned arrangements, and recorded his im-
pressive quintet for clarinet and string quartet, The Dreams and Prayers of Isaac the Blind.

in conventional ways — highlights the independence of his voice and vision.
Golijov has written music for Dawn Upshaw on several occasions, including Three
Songs for Soprano and Orchestra (for the Minnesota Orchestra, 2002) and the one-act
opera Ainadamar, on the death of Lorca, which was commissioned by the Tanglewood
Music Center and premiered here last summer. He wrote Ayre not just for Ms. Upshaw,
but specifically for the opening season of Zankel Hall at Carnegie Hall. Commissioned
by the Carnegie Hall Corporation, ^yr<? had its premiere in Zankel Hall on March 31,
2004 (on which occasion there were twelve movements, the original twelfth movement
having since been removed by the composer). From the beginning, Golijov thought of
Ayre as a counterpart to Berio's Folk Songs (with which it was paired on the Zankel Hall
program in March). Berio's work draws on a body of existing songs from both sides of
the Atlantic. Golijov draws on a body of songs (some of them from written sources,
many of them transcribed from recordings) that are geographically centered in Spain
and represent the three principal cultures — Christian, Jewish, and Arab — that were liv-
ing together, and at odds with one another, in the period before the expulsion of the
Jews from Spain in 1492. Most of the texts are in Ladino, the language of Spanish Jews;
some are in Aramaic and Arabic.
Golijov notes that his work, like Berio's, is mostly an elaborate arrangement of exist-
ing songs. "Most are well-known melodies that I'm arranging. But some I am making
up. For the first song I took a Sephardic romance. I don't know if it ever had music, but
I'm writing a tune for it. The idea is to create a 'forest' and for Dawn to walk in it.
There is no real sense of 'form' — in the sense of Beethovenian development — but rather
lots of detours and discoveries."
Two of the songs — music and lyrics — are by Golijov's friend Gustavo Santaolalla.
Most of the rest are anonymous folk melodies of the diverse cultures, ranging in theme
from the very religious, to cursing, to funny tales. Taken all together, the songs and their
texts, the stories and the music, create the image of a complex web of human cultural
interaction in one area that served as a crossroads.

NOTES ON THE PROGRAM
In November 1861 Clara Schumann wrote in her journal, "An interesting conversation
with Johannes about form. How the old masters had the freest form, while modern
compositions move within the stiffest and most narrow limits. He himself emulates the
older generation and Clementi in particular ranks high in his opinion, on account of his
great, free form."
Johannes Brahms (1833-1897) was then twenty-eight and a recovering phenome-
48
non. He had rocketed to fame at twenty, when in an article Robert Schumann pro-
claimed him the coming savior of German music. Reeling from the burden Schumann
had laid on him, Brahms endured years of creative uncertainty. By the time he and
Clara had their conversation about form, he was emerging from uncertainty, working on
his first chamber music masterpieces, the String Sextet in B-flat and the Piano Quartet
in G minor.
Around him, factional rumbles that Schumann's article had provoked were growing
into a struggle that has been called the "War of the Romantics." On one side were the
adherents of Wagner's and Liszt's "Music of the Future," on
the other side the Brahmsians. The central battleground of
that war was form: the progressives decreed the death of the
old models, found new ones in literature and philosophy, and
largely scorned small canvases. Brahms rarely strayed from the
old models, above all sonata form, rondo, and variations, with-
in their context of classical genres such as symphony, string
^A quartet, and violin sonata.
^ If Brahms's devotion to classical forms made him the idol
A ^M of conservatives in the middle of the Romantic century, virtu-
Wk w .joM ally he alone in his generation understood that Haydn, Moz-
art, and Beethoven had not used received patterns as a mold to pour notes into, but
wielded them freely and dynamically. Thus his observation to Clara. He would fill the
old forms with innovative conceptions of rhythm, harmony, and thematic integration.
His creative re-imaginings are never more beautifully on display than in his three violin
sonatas.
In 1878 Brahms was spending his second summer in delightful Portschach, on Lake
Worth. The village provided swimming, mountain vistas, delicious crabs, and loads of
inspiration. Brahms wrote a friend: "The melodies fly so thick here that you have to be
careful not to step on one." If he scorned program-based music, he was willing to give
himself over to the power of atmosphere and landscape to shape his work. The main pro-
duct of his previous summer in Portschach had been the gentle, pastoral Second Sym-
phony The summers of 1878 and 1879 produced the Violin Sonata No. 1 in G major.
The First is often called the Regen ("Rain") Sonata, because in it Brahms took up his
song Regenlied and made its opening, notably its dotted upbeat, the motto of the whole
piece. That motto recurs in myriad guises, here thoughtful, there tentative, sometimes
striding and assertive. Meanwhile the connection to song, to songfiilness, would mark
all his violin sonatas.
The sonata-form opening movement of the G major begins with one of Brahms's
retrospective, sweetly lyrical melodies over quiet chords in the piano. That theme will
never be far away in the movement, and it sets the inward tone of the whole sonata.
The theme begins with the dotted Regen-raoXto and in its first few bars sets up motivic
ideas that will permeate all three movements; tight thematic integration is an impressive
part of this sonata. The most innovative aspect is the prophetic rhythmic ideas: in many
phrases the 6/4 meter is defined polyrhythmically, superimposing patterns of two, three,
and four.
The familiar landmarks of sonata form are handled with equal imagination.
Nominally we see a familiar outline: an exposition with its first and second themes, a
development improvising on the themes, a recapitulation, and coda. But instead of the
usual exposition-repeat Brahms gives us a feint, a false repeat; we are thrust into an
increasingly passionate development that ends not with a dramatic Beethovenian reca-
pitulation but an elided one, where we suddenly find ourselves back in the middle of the
gentle opening theme.
49
The second movement begins quietly, a hint of horn calls suggesting a forest noctur-
nal. This music wanders in a kind of rhythmic fog, the dotted motto now in a drifting
mood, the movement's opening phrase one that will grow in import as a point of arrival
from several directions. The form recalls the usual slow-movement pattern ABA, but
Brahms never repeats ideas literally, developing and intensifying them on their return,
and as a kind of extended coda he adds another recall of the B and A themes.
The quietly energetic G minor finale, which like the first movement begins with the
dotted motto pattern on D, is a rondo (ABACA etc.) — again the expected form, but
where traditional rondo finales are usually fleet and playful, the rondos in Brahms's vio-
lin sonatas are lyrical and serious. The piano in this finale plays nervous raindrop figures
under the flowing violin line, the whole creating a feeling of restrained passion. The
arrival after that restraint is the C section, which brings back the opening theme of the
slow movement, in its key of E-flat. That theme will return for the rest of the finale, help-
ing tie together the whole sonata and its poignant and introspective world. Only in the
coda does the piece rediscover G major, for the first time since the opening movement,
but the feeling at the end is not of triumph but rather of quiet resignation. It is often
said of the First Violin Sonata that it has a feeling of autobiography, even confession.
If the G major is the most musically complex and inward of the sonatas, the Violin
Sonata No. 2 in A major, written on Lake Thun in a halcyon summer of 1886, is the
most genial, compact, and extroverted, starting with its expansive high-Brahmsian open-
ing. It begins with piano, and, throughout, the piano will be more often in the fore-
ground than in the First Sonata. In the first movement there is a touch of pathos in the
second theme and a stormy moment in the development (which ends strikingly with a
Hungarian tune in C-sharp minor), but geniality prevails.
The second movement is ABABA, nothing special in itself, but the material presents
a startling and delightful contrast. The A is a songful Andante tranquillo in F major, the
B a D minor Vivace of folk- Hungarian cast. Each element is varied on its return, the
Andante becoming more soulful and finally retrospective, the Vivace more nimble, the
last time serving as a wry and curt coda. The finale is summarized in its direction Alle-
gretto grazioso (quasi Andante): another flowing and genial theme, but broader than the
first movement's, with a preference for the lush low G-string of the fiddle.
50
Begun at Lake Thun in 1886 and finished in 1888, the Violin Sonata No. 3 in
D minor begins as if in the middle of a thought, the music driving and restive, setting
the tone of the most emotionally complex of the sonatas. The second theme is only a
touch calmer; the nervousness will never entirely abate. Highly unusually, the entire
development takes place over a pounding A pedal, creating a sense of relentlessness and
perhaps frustration, and the recapitulation becomes tumultuous. (The intensified return
of the second theme would not be out of place in romantic film drama of the 1930s.)
The coda answers the development with a long D pedal, finishing a movement that
overall feels urgent, unsettled, and unresolved.
The second movement is contrastingly simple and in D major — but a strangely
shadowed major, with a tragic undercurrent. Nominally the form is again ABA, but the
B section is only a transition back to a more passionate restatement of the melody. This
sonata adds a third-movement scherzo in F-sharp minor, its insistent and quietly driv-
ing rhythms an effective contrast to the slow movement, its tone neither tragic nor light
but a suspension somewhere between.
So where do these three intense, unresolved, often turbulent movements lead? To a
Presto agitato finale in a relentlessly driving 6/8, fierce and dynamic in tone. At the end
there is no hopeful resolution to major; the terse coda finishes in D minor. There is
Brahms's answer to the qualms and questions of the earlier movements, and perhaps to
the turbulences in his own life: not hope, but defiance.
Throughout these lovely, lyrical, and marvelously varied sonatas, Brahms has utilized
or recalled the form traditionally proper to each movement. At the same time, each
movement is a testament to his originality, to his own sense of great, free form.

NOTES ON THE PROGRAM
Composers generally write a symphonic piece in two stages. Before penning the full
orchestral score, which requires at least twelve musical staves, they will produce a pre-
liminary version, notating all the important musical details on four staves — a layout very
like that of two-piano music. It is thus not surprising that symphonic music can often
be translated (indeed, retranslated) to the two-piano medium with surprising success.
This is unquestionably the case with the three works on our program, all inspired by the
great Russian ballet tradition. Colorful though the orchestral versions are, their hues
still make a striking effect when transmuted by the keyboard into vividly differentiated
shades of gray.
When Sergei Prokofiev (1891-1953) reestablished resi-
dence in his native Russia in 1934 after years of voluntary
exile, the first large project he tackled was the ballet Romeo
and Juliet. Put into production at the Bolshoi Theater shortly
after its completion in September 1935, Romeo unfortunately
provoked a rebellion at rehearsals, with leading cast members
branding it "undanceable." The Bolshoi canceled the produc-
tion; and only in January 1940 was Prokofiev vindicated when
the long-delayed Russian premiere of Romeo, given by the
Kirov company in Leningrad (today St. Petersburg), enjoyed a
triumphant reception. That fall, the Kirov commissioned
another ballet from Prokofiev, Cinderella, and composition began later in 1940. In June
1941, however, with two acts of Cinderella complete in piano score, the Nazi invasion of
the Soviet Union prompted Prokofiev to put aside the ballet in favor of a patriotic
opera, War and Peace.
While working on War and Peace, Prokofiev issued two collections of "Piano pieces
from Cinderella? published in 1942 and 1943. After finishing the opera in mid- 1943 he
quickly composed Cinderella^ third act in piano score, hoping for an August 1943 pro-
duction by the Kirov, now temporarily housed in the Ural city of Perm. But the Perm
performance never materialized, and Prokofiev completed the ballet's orchestration only
in the summer of 1944. Curiously, it was not the Kirov but the Bolshoi company that
gave Cinderella its highly successful premiere, on November 21, 1945, in Moscow.
In Cinderella, Prokofiev continued to mine the haunting lyric idiom that had given
Romeo and Juliet its special character, but aimed at even greater simplicity and "dance-
ability." Its individual episodes tend to be more self-contained than those of Romeo, and
these make the piece especially suitable for excerpting. Indeed, Prokofiev made three
separate orchestral suites from Cinderella and added several collections of Cinderella
piano excerpts from the two published before the ballet was complete. Given that Pro-
kofiev unhesitatingly presented piano transcriptions from the score, the present duo-
piano version — which covers all the familiar highlights of the familiar fairy tale — can lay
a special claim to propriety and authority. In these fetching lyric excerpts, Prokofiev
eminently succeeded in his aim, which was, "to convey the poetic love between Cinder-
ella and the Prince — the birth and flowering of that feeling, the obstacles thrown in its
path, and the realization of the dream at last."
Unlike so many important Russian composers, Sergei Rachmaninoff (1873-1943)
took little interest in ballet for most of his career. In 1939, however, the Russian-born
choreographer Michael Fokine produced a ballet version of Rachmaninoff's five-year-
old Rhapsody on a Theme of Paganini (1934) which so delighted the composer that he
57
decided to write another large work suitable for both dance and the concert hall. Sum-
mering at Orchard Point, Long Island, in 1940, the sixty-seven-year-old Rachmaninoff
plunged into this new score, also maintaining so rigorous a piano-practice schedule that
his wife became alarmed. (He began his workdays at 8:30 a.m. and ended at 11 at night,
breaking only for a two-hour afternoon nap and a shorter evening dinner.) On August
21, he wrote the following to Eugene Ormandy, conductor of
the Philadelphia Orchestra: "Last week I finished a new sym-
phonic piece, which I naturally want to give first to you and
your orchestra. It is called Fantastic Dances. I shall now begin
the orchestration."
A few days later, the composer changed his title to Sym-
phonic Dances. He completed the orchestration October 29,
later producing the present two-piano version. Ormandy and
the Philadelphians gave the premiere on January 3, 1941.
Symphonic Dances, Opus 45, was the first major work Rach-
maninoff had composed entirely in America, and would also
prove to be the last — his creative swan song.
In Symphonic Dances, Rachmaninoff plies his most adventurous chromatic harmony,
yet avoids the diffuseness that sometimes afflicts his harmonic experiments. Each of the
three dances, for which Rachmaninoff once contemplated the titles Midday, Twilight,
and Midnight, is cast in three-part form (modified ABA) with prefatory introduction.
Throughout, Rachmaninoff's powers of motivic development are at their height, and he
is still capable of spinning out long melodies of great beauty.
From introductory flickers of a descending three-note figure, an energetic theme
coalesces. In a later variant, the flicker-descent becomes an ascent, but the opening ver-
sion returns. A central section presents a lyric melody; later the main theme reappears,

followed by a closing benediction. Muted annunciations of quiet menace open the cen-
tral Andante con moto (Tempo di valse), and a slinky waltz develops. The annunciation
also begins and closes the middle section, and the waltz theme, in its restatement, even-
tually accelerates to a whirl. Paradoxically, a central feature of the joyous, vigorous finale
is Rachmaninoff's long-standing obsession with the doom-laden Dies irae Requiem
chant. A stately introduction provides a foretaste of the celebratory, fanfare-like main
theme. A still more animated second theme, marked by jolting syncopations, is directly
derived from Dies irae. Lyric central material waxes impassioned. In a coda after the free
reprise, there is a dramatic build-up on the second theme, and at a climax Rachmanin-
off quotes the "Alliluya melody from his Vespers of 1915. With "Alliluya" banishing
Dies irae, death is quite literally, as the Bible says, "swallowed up in victory."
In 1891, Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky (1840-1893) received a commission from the
Imperial Theater for an interesting double bill, consisting of a one-act fairy tale opera,
lolantha, and a ballet based on E.T.A. Hoffmann's fantasy The Nutcracker and the King
of the Mice. Travels, including a journey to America, interfered
with work on the piece, but Tchaikovsky had the music ready
by March of 1892. lolanthe, Opus 69, and The Nutcracker,
Opus 71, duly received a joint premiere at the end of that
year, on December 6, at the Maryinsky Theater in St. Peters-
burg. The ballet was an immediate success, and no one was
more impressed with the score's quality than Tchaikovsky
himself. "It is curious," he wrote, "that all the time I was writ-
ing the ballet I thought it was rather poor, and that when I
began my opera [Io/anthe] I would really do my best. But now
it seems to me that the ballet is good and the opera is medi-
ocre." Tchaikovsky himself drew the well-known Nutcracker Suite, Opus 71a, from the
complete ballet. Establishing the opening scene — a Christmas Eve celebration where
children open their toys — Tchaikovsky begins with a "miniature overture," and then
proceeds to a second act divertissement in the Candy Kingdom, where the queen of the
realm, the Sugar-plum Fairy, daintily appears to introduce the delicacies of her domains.
These are personified in an Arabian Dance (coffee) and a Chinese Dance (tea). There is
also a lusty Russian trepak, and a witty Dance of the Reed Pipes, and the Suite con-
cludes with the beguiling Waltz of the Flowers. _, . . ^

GUEST ARTISTS
Martha Argerich
Martha Argerich was born in Buenos Aires and began her first piano les-
sons at the age of five with Vincenzo Scaramuzza. Considered a child
prodigy, she soon performed in public. In 1955 she moved to Europe,
continuing her studies in London, Vienna, and Switzerland, working with
Seidlhofer, Gulda, Magaloff, Mrs. Lipatti, and Stefan Ashkenazy. In 1957
she won the Bolzano and Geneva piano competitions, and in 1965 the
Warsaw International Chopin Competition. Since then she has been one
of the most prominent pianists in the world, both in popularity and abili-
ty. Martha Argerich has been rated highly for her performance of the virtuoso 19th- and
20th-century piano literature. Her large repertoire includes Bach, Bartok, Beethoven, and

Hello, I Must Be Chancing
Our lives change constantly. We never know
with precision what we will face tomorrow.
So when tomorrow comes, we have to be
ready to confront the need for a new approach
openly, creatively, and willingly. If we are stuck and
cannot respond, determined to hold onto yester-
day's solutions, we are in trouble.
How can we make certain that the future leaders
of our country will be able to manage a changing
world successfully? How do we help students
develop both the skill and the inner strength to be
fluent, indeed inspired, in the task of evaluation,
response, and innovation?
When we are teaching adolescent girls about
change, we do not have to create clever lessons
based on simulations and change models. The cur-
riculum is constantly present, staring girls in the
face. Ready or not, their bodies, minds, emotions,
relationships, and ideas shift dramatically and daily.
So, change for adolescents is a certainty. How
well they do it, though, is another matter. Both
ends and means are important. On the one hand
is the goal of becoming a healthy, effective person,
but on the other is the quality of the change
process itself. It is the way in which the challenges
of adolescence are met that forms the underlying
pattern of adult coping skills.
Kurt Lewin, a founder of modern social psycholo-
gy, identifies three phases in change cycles that
are analogous to the phases through which a girl
travels as she says goodbye to the child she used
to be and begins to form the young woman she
will become. There is a time of unfreezing, then
changing, and finally a girl resets.
The pre-teen girl knows herself well. Hello Kitty,
butterfly clips, and Beanie Babies define her world.
Then, one morning, it's over. What made sense
for so long doesn't anymore. A girl is beginning to
let go of the younger child, a friend she knew well.
The growing girl will, at this point, change every-
thing from friendships to her mind as she tries on
different roles for size and fit. Gathering data on
what to incorporate into her emerging young-
woman vision, she scans the horizon for role mod-
els. Joan of Arc? Britney Spears? Aunt Nancy?
And what about her life's work? Biochemist?
Poet? Entrepreneur?
She may announce her career choice to the world
at lunch only to change her mind by dinner. In the
right environment, though, she will have the feeling
that she is searching, not being whimsical or silly.
She learns then that change is a part of life, not a
threat to it. She sees that she is doing important
work, not just pretending. Changing is difficult and
best done in a confident community. Surrounded
by steady and wise adults, a girl is reassured that
her own inner testing and doubt do not shake the
foundations of the community around her.
Finally, a girl begins to reset, that is, she begins to
integrate her new ideas and perspectives into a
new self-concept. Teachers everywhere are famil-
iar with this phenomenon, which is why we are not
surprised to notice, in about January every year,
that seniors suddenly seem grown up and ready to
leave, distinctly more mature than ever before.
High school has served its purpose. Girls are
ready to take their new selves into the world.
The emergence of a new grown-up persona is only
part of the success. Secure in what she has
accomplished, a girl now knows that she can man-
age change with resolve. She has found a creative
style. She will approach other challenges pur-
posefully. Most importantly, she will embrace
change, her life-long companion, with the confi-
dence that only early success can bring.
How can we make certain that the future leaders
of our country will be able to manage a changing
world successfully? Encourage them to take
healthy risks, be there to listen, share coping
strategies, and express certainty about their ability
to succeed. From this secure base, they will sense
that life is about growth, not defensive posturing.
They will trust that the sky is not falling when hard
times come along. If we, the adults in girls' lives,
have patience for the journey and reverence for the
process, girls will become the courageous innova-
tors our world needs them to be.

Messiaen, as well as Chopin, Schumann, Liszt, Debussy, Ravel, Franck, Prokofiev, Stravinsky,
Shostakovich, and Tchaikovsky. Although she is frequently invited by the most prestigious
orchestras, conductors, and music festivals in Europe, Japan, and America, chamber music
takes a significant role in her musical life. She regularly performs and records with pianists
Nelson Freire and Alexander Rabinovitch, cellist Mischa Maisky, and violinist Gidon Kremer.
In 1996 Ms. Argerich was made an Officier des Arts et des Lettres by the French govern-
ment, and in 1997 she became a member of the Accademia di Santa Cecilia di Roma. Since
1998 she has been the artistic director of the Beppu Festival in Japan. In 1999 she created
the International Piano Competition and Festival Martha Argerich in Buenos Aires, and in
June 2002 she initiated the Progetto Martha Argerich in Lugano. Many of her performances
have been broadcast on television worldwide. Martha Argerich has recorded for EMI, Sony,
Philips, Teldec, and Deutsche Grammophon. Among many recent awards are a Grammy for
her disc of Bartok and Prokofiev concertos, Gramophones Artist of the Year and Best Piano
Concerto Recording of the Year for her recording of the Chopin concertos, the "Choc" of the
Monde de la Musique for her Amsterdam recital disc, the Deutscher Schallplatten Kritik Artist
of the Year, and Musical Americas 2001 Musician of the Year. She appears twice at Tangle-
wood this week, in tonight's recital appearance with Alexander Gurning, and on Friday night
as sqloist in concertos of Poulenc (with Mr. Gurning) and Ravel with the Boston Symphony
Orchestra led by Charles Dutoit.
Alexander Gurning
Belgian pianist Alexander Gurning was born in 1973 of Indonesian and
Polish parents. Early on, he began his piano studies with Nicole Henriot-
Schweitzer, quickly winning a first prize at the Brussels Royal Conserva-
tory. He received a "superior diploma" with an acclamatory jury award,
giving him the opportunity to become Eugene Moguilevsky's assistant.
Mr. Gurning's musical upbringing is strongly defined by French and Rus-
sian influences. After several encounters with such musicians as Gyorgy
Sebok and Lev Naumov, he went on to perfect his studies with Victor
Meszhanov at the Moscow Conservatory in Russia. In the past several years he has performed
at the Beijing Music Festival (China) as well as the Beppu Meeting Point (a festival created
by Martha Argerich) and the Pacific Music Festival, both in Japan. Additionally he has been
heard at the Schleswig-Holstein (Germany), Ravello (Italy), and La Roque d'Antheron
(France) festivals, among others. Mr. Gurning's repertoire ranges from Bach to Chopin, from
Scriabin to Corigliano. His association with the young dedicated group of musicians "Sole-
lad" led to a recording with Virgin Classics, featuring works by Piazzolla and contemporary
Belgian composers, a disc that was awarded the "Choc de l'Annee 2002" — "surprise of the
year" — by the French musical magazine Le Monde de la Musique. In 2002, at the Lugano
Festival in Switzerland, Mr. Gurning made another recording, this time for the EMI label,
teaming up with such renowned partners as Martha Argerich and Renaud Capucon. A fur-
ther CD includes solo piano works by Stravinsky and Debussy. This Friday night Mr. Gurn-
ing makes his BSO debut, joining forces again with Ms. Argerich for Poulenc's Concerto in
D minor for Two Pianos, conducted by Charles Dutoit.

GREAT BENEFACTORS
In the building of his new symphony for Boston, the BSO's founder and first
benefactor, Henry Lee Higginson, knew that ticket revenues could never fully
cover the costs of running a great orchestra.
From 1881 to 1918 Higginson covered the orchestra's annual deficits with personal
donations that exceeded $1 million. The Boston Symphony Orchestra now honors
each of the following generous donors whose cumulative giving to the BSO is
$1 million or more with permanent recognition as Great Benefactors of this great
orchestra.

SEIJI OZAWA HALL
Wednesday, August 18, at 8:30
Florence Gould Auditorium, Seiji Ozawa Hall
BOSTON SYMPHONY CHAMBER PLAYERS
DAWN UPSHAW, soprano
Osvaldo Golijov (b.1960)
"Ayre" (2004)
Translations of the Sung Texts
Mananita de San Juan
{Morning of St. Johns Day)
Text: Traditional Sephardic Romance
Music based on Sephardic street calls
In the morning of St. John's Day
Moors and Christians went out to war
They were warring, they were dying
Five hundred on each side.
Rondale, admiral of the seas,
Was taken captive.
His sword broke and in the middle
of the battle
He found himself in prison and started
to cry.
The princess heard him from the heights
of her castle:
"Don't cry, Rondale, don't harm yourself
I'll give you 100 gold marks and
Whatever else you want
You'll marry me, my vineyards and brooks."
"May bad fire burn your vineyards
Your brooks and your homes
I have a wife in Paris: that's the one I marry"
When the princess heard this
She had him killed.
— translation by Osvaldo Golijov
2. Una Madre Comio Asado
{A Mother Roasted her Child)
Lyrics and Music: Traditional
Sephardic song after Jeremiah's
Lamentations
And a mother roasted
and ate her cherished son:
"Look at my eyes, mother.
I learned the law with them
Look at my forehead, mother,
I wore the philacteries there
Look at my mouth, mother:
I learned the law with it."
— translation by Osvaldo Golijov
3. Tancas Serradas a Muru
( Walls are Encircling the Land)
Lyrics and Music by Francesco
Ignazio Mannu (Sardinia, ca. 1795)
Walls are encircling the land
Seized with greed and in haste,
If Heaven was on Earth
They would grab it too!
— translation by Remo Bodei
Please turn the page quietly.
4. Luna (Moon): Instrumental
Music by Gustavo Santaolalla
5. Nanni
Traditional Sephardic Lullaby
Sleep my sweetheart, sleep...
Sleep, apple of my eye.
Your father is coming,
And his spirits are high.
Open the door, wife.
Open the door
Because I'm coming,
Tired from ploughing the fields.
I will not open to you.
You are not tired.
I know you are coming
From the house of your new love.
— translation by Osvaldo Golijov
6. Wa Habibi (My Love)
Lyrics: Traditional Christian Arab Easter Song
Music based on Traditional Christian Arab and Muslim Arab melodies
My Love, My Love
What has befallen you?
Who saw you and grieved for you,
You who are righteous?
My Love, what is the sin of our times and our children?
These wounds have no cure.
— translation by Hala Halim
7. Aiini Taqttiru (My Eyes Weep)
Music and Lyrics: Traditional Christian Arab Easter Song
My eyes weep without pause
For there is no rest
Until God reveals Himself and gazes from the sky
I raised my prayers in Your name,
OGod
Do not withhold your ear
Listen to my voice and come today.
— translation by Hala Halim
8. Kun Li-Guitari Wataran Ayyuha Al-Maa'
(Be a String, Water, to my Guitar)
From the poem "Eleven Planets in the
Last Andalusian Sky" by Mahmoud Darwish,
in "Adam of Two Edens," published by
Jusoor and Syracuse University Press 2000
Be a string, water, to my guitar,
Conquerors come, conquerors go...
It's getting hard to remember my face in the mirrors.
Be memory for me
So I can see what I've lost.
Who am I after these paths of exodus?
I own a boulder that bears my name
On a tall bluff overlooking what has come to an end.
Seven hundred years escort me beyond the city walls.
Time turns around in vain to save
my past from a moment that gives birth
to the history of my exile
in others and in myself.
Be a string, water, to my guitar.
Conquerors come, conquerors go...
Heading south as nations decompose
on the compost of change.
I know who I was yesterday,
But who will I be tomorrow
Under the Atlantic flags of Columbus?
Be a string to my guitar, water, be a string.
There is no Egypt in Egypt,
No Fez in Fez, and Syria is too far away.
No hawk on the flag of my people,
No river running east of a palm tree besieged
By the Mongols' swift horses.
In which Andalusia did I meet my end?
Here, in this place?
Or there?
I know I've died, leaving behind what is
Best of what is mine in this place: my past.
I've got nothing left but my guitar.
Be a string, water, to my guitar.
Conquerors come, conquerors go.
— translation by Clarissa Burt
Please turn the page quietly.
9. Sueltate las Cintas {Untie your Ribbons)
Lyrics and Music by Gustavo Santaolalla
Untie the ribbons of your hair and your skirt:
let's devour the night until dawn comes, just like this,
Barefoot girl.
We don't need the sky when you have my back
and I embrace your waistline, just like this.
Your silvery waistline.
If tomorrow, in the village, you laugh by yourself, wait,
keep the secret in which you carry me, just like this.
Weed, flower, honey and sand.
— translation by Osvaldo Golijov
10. Yah, Anna Emtzacha {Oh, Where Shall I find You?)
Poem by Yehudah Halevy {ca. 1112)
Music based on Sephardic calls to prayer
Oh, where shall I find You?
Your place is high and hidden.
And where shall I not find You?
Your glory fills the World.
I have sought Your nearness.
I called upon You with all my heart.
And in going out to meet You
I found You coming toward me.
— translation by Osvaldo Golijov
11. Ariadna en su Laberinto {Ariadne in Her Labyrinth)
Lyrics: Traditional Sephardic Romance
Music: Quodlibet of traditional and original
Sephardic melodies
"Why do you cry, fair child?
Why do you cry, white flower?"
"I cry because you leave me"
— translation by Osvaldo Golijov

Welcome
This EVENING we celebrate the tenth anniversary of Ozawa Hall. We celebrate
Seiji Ozawa and all of those who brought their dream of this Hall to reality. It
is impossible for me, in this brief space, to mention everyone who played a
part in the Ozawa Hall project. Certainly George Kidder, the President of the
BSO at the time, was the driving force of the project. George had the vision
that the project should be undertaken and confidence that it could be complet-
ed successfully. He pulled us along with his dedication and enthusiasm. With
the support of such Distinguished Founders as Norio Ohga, Jane and Jack
Fitzpatrick, Sony Corporation of America, the Kresge Foundation, the Florence
Gould Foundation, and Liz and George Krupp, this magnificent concert hall
was completed.
The architect for the project, William Rawn Associates, also had a vision.
Bill Rawn and his colleagues made the wise decision to place the Hall well
back from the brow of the hills, nestling, as he describes it, into the landscape
of the Highwood Estate. His concept was to design Ozawa Hall as a New
England meeting house. This is what it is — a warm, inviting place that captures
the democratic spirit of New England. Others also played a significant role in
the construction of the Hall, all making up, most notably, the concert hall
team pictured and identified on page 8 of this program book.
Ozawa Hall has fulfilled the dreams of those who initiated the project and
those who have been a part of Tanglewood and the Boston Symphony Or-
chestra. Performances from the inaugural concert by Seiji, John Williams, and
Yo-Yo Ma have been followed by other memorable events. Tonight's program,
appropriately, includes Toru Takemitsu's Ceremonial^ a benedictory work
picked especially by Maestro Ozawa. We also hear the young pianist Yundi Li
in his Tanglewood debut, reflecting the extent to which Ozawa Hall has served
as a venue to present exciting new talent. This is a special night for many rea-
sons, not least the welcoming back of Seiji, and the celebration of the Hall
bearing his name.

Reflections on Ozawa Hall — Ten Years Later
by William Rawn, FAIA
Seiji Ozawa Hall opened on July 7, 1994. William Rawn Associates, Architects, Inc.,
of Boston designed the building working closely with Larry Kirkegaard, Acousti-
cian, and Theatre Projects Consultants, Inc. The national American Institute of
Architects (AIA) awarded Seiji Ozawa Hall an Honor Award for Architecture in
1995 and an Honor Award for Interiors in 2000, and the building was on the cover
of "Architecture" magazine in December 1994.
Here, William Rawn discusses some of the ideas influencing the design and
reflects on the ten years since the opening of Seiji Ozawa Hall in 1994.
Without question, the ten years since the opening of Ozawa Hall have been marked
by the special loyalty of concertgoers who attend so many performances in the
Hall and by the intensity and excellence of the performers — world-class musicians
and Tanglewood Music Center students — who have played there. For me, person-
ally, the ten years has been marked by the many generous comments made by
friends and strangers alike. Maybe there is an element of good New England man-
ners here. (Who would strongly criticize a building directly to its architect?) But
the enthusiastic — and spontaneous — response to the building has been a highlight
of my professional career over the past decade.
For an architect, each project is a hands-on learning experience. Only after
developing a design, following it through working drawings, and then overseeing
the construction can an architect begin to apply that learning to the next project.
The act of building is as critical as is the act of designing. This explains why archi-
tects tend to do their best work in their sixties and seventies, the culmination of a
career of constant learning. Frank Lloyd Wright applied that learning to great
buildings deep into his eighties, and Frank Gehry is now at the top if his game well
into his seventies — the opposite of dancers and professional athletes.
The opportunity to design a building like Ozawa Hall so early in my architec-
tural career has had a profound impact on our practice. My life and the lives of my
colleagues have been changed by that experience. I know, too, that the buildings
we are designing now and in the future reflect the learning gained in the building
of Ozawa Hall. For this, I am deeply indebted to Tanglewood.
While I had never designed a concert hall when I began work at Tanglewood, to
compensate for that seeming inexperience, early in the project I spent three weeks
in Europe studying the spatial qualities of a dozen halls. The acoustics of a hall
were obviously most important, and we were confident in our bringing Larry
Kirkegaard to the team as acoustician. But it seemed to me that the intimacy and
intensity of a concert experience were human qualities critical to the overall success
of a hall. While in Europe, I photographed; I measured; I attended concerts to get
the "feel" of each hall I visited. Larry Kirkegaard joined me at two of his favorite
halls, the Concertgebouw in Amsterdam and the Musikvereinssaal in Vienna, not
only to show me first-hand the reasons for their acoustic excellence, but also to
share with me his subjective feelings for both halls. Richard Pilbrow (Theatre
Projects Consultants, Inc.) pushed us to maintain intimacy by careful organizing of
the seating, and his advice informed that trip.
What, then, explains the enthusiastic reaction of so many people to the Hall. I
suspect three things:
1. The acoustics are wonderful, if I can say so myself. Credit for that goes to
Larry Kirkegaard. From opening night (and Edward Rothstein's next day
article in The New York Times) to the recent book, Concert Halls and
Opera Houses by Leo Beranek, the acoustic accolades have been consistent.
Beranek recently developed a rating system (based on interviews with con-
ductors and performers) which showed Ozawa Hall to be thirteenth-best in
the world, fourth-best hall in the United States, and one of the four best
halls built in the last fifty years. Larry Kirkegaard's vision and brilliance is
palpable. His natural love of being the teacher, his understanding of the
necessity of teamwork between acoustician and architect, were fundamental
to the success of the building. Seiji Ozawa remarked ten years ago that he
thought the Hall sounded as good with the big barn doors open as with the
doors closed. High praise indeed for Larry's inventive solution to a seem-
ingly insoluble acoustic problem.
2. The Hall feels to be part of the land of the Stockbridge Bowl. Is it the
curved roof referencing the soft hills of the Berkshires? Is it the way the
Hall nestles into the landscape of the Highwood Estate, choosing not to be
placed at the promontory brow of the hill but choosing a site down the
Hill? Of course, buildings do not make such choices. Architects do. Bill
Porter was Master Planner for the site and he strongly supported our deci-
sion to place the Hall in this deferential position. We pointed out that all
the music buildings at Tanglewood (the Shed, the Theatre, and now Ozawa
Hall) were placed well back from the brow of the Hill. They defer to Tappan
House and Highwood Manor House, indeed letting them establish them-
selves as the Estate Houses on an estate open to 15,000 people. The music
buildings literally became the working "barns" ("sheds") of the estate.
3. The interior of the Hall, of course, gets much mention. In a way I always
love it when people — strangers and friends alike — engage me in a conversa-
tion about the architectural intentions of the interior. A variety of theories
about precedents and sources abound. While wanting to acknowledge a
range of sources for ideas natural to any architect's work, nonetheless one
idea has been constant from the beginning. My sense of Tanglewood has
always focused on the essential democratic nature of the place: that sense
that it is open and accessible to anyone and everyone. I always say: most of
the week, whether it is a CEO of a Fortune 500 Company or a family visit-
ing from 2000 miles away, everyone is welcome to wander the "estate" and
perhaps hear master classes taught by the world's leading musicians.
We wanted Ozawa Hall to share in that democratic spirit. My model was
as much a New England Meeting House as any other architectural form:
the clear and simple rectangular room, relatively unadorned, warm and wel-
coming, capturing a democratic spirit. Attending a wedding in Strafford,
Vermont, Meeting House five years ago, I felt very strongly that I was in a
space that became a subliminal source of our architectural ideas for Ozawa
Hall. Obviously there are differences: the teak and Douglas fir; the joinery;
the wood patterns which combine the gridded formality of the balcony
fronts with the informality of the summer breezes wafting through those
grilles; the fact that from almost any seat you can see outside, not only to
the sky but to the green of trees and lawn. All these elements modulate the
strict interpretation of Ozawa Hall as Meeting House. But the spirit re-
mains. To see how audience and performers react to the Hall, reaffirms this
special democratic — and perhaps very American — spirit of the place.
What I love today is what has happened in the Hall and how people have used
the Hall in ways almost unimaginable. The way people congregate in the arcades at
intermission, catching up with their friends, gazing quietly at the landscape; the
way the Tanglewood Music Center (TMC) concerts have become so popular with
visitors and cognoscenti alike (remember how we worried about small audiences
for TMC recitals and how we organized the space so that it could feel "full" even
with a small audience); how the Hall accommodates the inventions of the
Contemporary Music Festival, or, more recently, the never-imagined inventions of
a Mark Morris dance performance. This sense of a living and growing Hall, always
expanding its vision, always surprising, is special.
There is a saying in the law that "hard cases can make bad law." In a similar but
more positive vein, the experience at Ozawa Hall has proved to me that a support-
ive and collaborative client makes great buildings. And here all the credit goes to
the BSO organization. George Kidder, then President, asked Dean Freed (the BSO
Trustee who chaired the BSO's Building and Grounds Committee at that time;
now a BSO Life Trustee), the late BSO Overseer Haskell Gordon, and Dan Gustin
(at that time the BSO's Manager of Tanglewood and BSO Assistant Managing
Director) to be the three-person committee directing me, my colleagues Alan
Joslin and Clifford Gayley, and John Fish of Suffolk Construction Company. In
addition, Kidder asked Robert Campbell to be architectural adviser to that com-
mittee. The four-member BSO group (which sadly was reduced to three by
Haskell's untimely death halfway through the project) brought a spirit of team-
work that inspired us, pushed us, nurtured us. That collaborative spirit — call it the
architectural equivalent of musical ensemble — is celebrated by this building.
To the BSO, to all the musicians who have performed there, and to the audi-
ences who have supported the Hall for the past ten years, I offer my deepest
thanks.

Creating a "New" Tanglewood
by Robert Campbell
Robert Campbell, architectural critic for The Boston Globe, was Architectural
Advisor to the BSO's Design Committee for the building ofSeiji Ozawa Hall He
originally wrote this essay for the souvenir book "A Room For Music" produced in
conjunction with the HalVs opening in 1994.
It began with the land. In December 1986 the size of Tanglewood suddenly and
unexpectedly doubled, with the acquisition, from the Mason Harding family, of
the Highwood estate next door.
You couldn't walk out onto this new piece of land without noticing a long, gen-
tle slope of field, back behind the house, that terminated in a natural backdrop of
pines. You couldn't help feeling that Providence must have created that slope in the
hope that someone, some day, would sit there listening to music, as it drifted out
from somewhere among the pines. Even before Highwood became available, the
decision had already been made to build a new concert hall at Tanglewood. The
old Theatre-Concert Hall, across the lawn from the Koussevitzky Music Shed, was
becoming derelict and inadequate. A preliminary design for a new concert hall was
actually created by another architect. When Highwood became available all this
work came to a screeching halt. The BSO realized, at once, that it needed profes-
sional help to assess the potential of the new property. It hired the nationally
known Cambridge firm of Carr, Lynch, Hack & Sandell as site planners. Bill
Porter and Catherine Verhulst of that office took charge of the job. They quickly
confirmed everyone's early intuition: the grassy slope at Highwood was the right
place for the new concert hall.
Porter and Verhulst pointed out other things, too. They noticed that a single
unbroken ridge of lawn extended from the old Tanglewood property right through
the new estate, all of it with a view of the Stockbridge Bowl to the south. They
called this ridge the "performance plateau" and conceived it as a means of uniting
the old campus with the new. They noticed that if the new concert hall were placed
down the slope from this plateau, it would stand in the same relation to Highwood
Manor House as the Shed does to the Tanglewood Manor House. There would be
a sort of visual rhyme: Tanglewood Manor and its Shed, Highwood Manor and its
concert hall. The new estate would immediately feel like Tanglewood.
Porter and Verhulst did many other things. They surveyed the property and
declared most of it a protected wetland. With what remained, besides the site for the
concert hall, they created a new string of roads and parking lots, carefully nestled
among the existing woodlands, to relieve pressure on the old traffic patterns. They
renovated the former carriage barn into offices and studios for some of Tangle-
wood's staff and faculty. They removed the Box Lot parking from the performance
plateau and raised the grade of this part of the lawn by several feet, using material
excavated for the new concert hall, in order to improve views into the shed. They
developed a landscape plan for all of Tanglewood, new and old. And they found
locations for, and then designed, new gates, rest rooms, utilities, practice studios,
snack booths, ticket booths, paths, plantings, a new gift shop, a new lawn cafe, and
much else that was needed to transform the Highwood estate into a true working
part of Tanglewood.
But the centerpiece of the new Tanglewood would be, of course, the new con-
cert hall. Because of the new site, it was decided to make a fresh start in planning
■&>&3
for this facility. Several nationally known architects were interviewed before the
selection of a relative newcomer, William Rawn of Boston, as the designer. Rawn
impressed the selection committee by the time and care he devoted to visiting and
studying Tanglewood, and especially by the verbal eloquence with which he was
able to invoke Tanglewood's essential magic.
Endless debates ensued. How many seats should the new hall have? Twelve hun-
dred, give or take, it was finally decided. Where, precisely, should it stand? Rawn
persuaded everyone it should be pushed far enough up the slope so as not to feel
remote. Should it, like its predecessor, serve for both opera and concerts? No, it
was determined: Now that it would be possible to preserve the old Theatre-Con-
cert Hall, it made better sense to convert the older building for opera in the future.
But the critical issue of the debate was over a different issue. Should the new
hall be suitable for recording purposes? If so, it would have to be a much heavier,
much more solid acoustic shell than anything else at Tanglewood. It would be a
new and different kind of building altogether, and a costlier one too. The decision
eventually fell in favor of recording, and the building began, in Rawn's office, to
assume its present shape.
It was exciting to watch the hall as it evolved over time in a long series of discus-
sions, drawings, and models. Two BSO Board members, Dean Freed and the late
Haskell Gordon, participated in virtually every meeting and contributed a great
deal to the shaping of the hall. So did the BSO's Tanglewood Manager Dan Gustin
and Tanglewood Music Center Administrator Richard Ortner, among many oth-
ers. Rawn traveled through Europe to look at famous halls. He returned with a
determination to create not an auditorium, in which the performers on the stage
are quite separate from the audience, but rather a more congenial, more sociable
space in which the performers and the audience would gather together as if in a
large room. The audience would sit on three sides, and up on balconies too, so that
its members could look across at one another, enjoying the ritual pleasure of as-
1

sembling. They would sit in informal chairs, as if on a Shaker porch. A big opening
at the rear would open to the sloping lawn, in the Tanglewood tradition, where
hundreds could sit and see and hear. Above this opening, there would be a musi-
cian's gallery, a place for a fanfare before the performance.
Too often, when an architect and an acoustician collaborate, one or the other
dominates. In the case of Seiji Ozawa Hall something very different occurred.
Rawn and his acoustician, Lawrence Kirkegaard — himself trained as an architect —
developed a give-and-take working relationship in which each seemed to be trying
to optimize the other's goals. The
building acquired the massive walls
and ceiling that Kirkegaard needed to
reflect the bass notes. But it also ac-
quired a remarkable sense of light and
air. Glass-block windows served to
contain the sound, while simultane-
ously permitting views out to the sky.
Broken-up surfaces of wall and ceil-
ing, necessary for blending and dis-
persing the sound, took the form of
handsome architectural coffers, bays,
and corrugations.
As it finally took form, and as it
now has been built, Seiji Ozawa Hall
is a building with an exterior that is a
reddish blend of several shades of
brick. The brick isn't the usual machine-
cut type but a more irregular, richly
textured variety made by casting each
brick separately. It is trimmed in red
sandstone imported from India, with
Alaskan yellow cedar at the exterior
Looking east, with the windows over the galleries. The round vaulted roof is
stage and all sub-floors in place, January lead-coated copper. The overall im-
14, 1994 pression is of a building that looks
both durable and purposeful, commanding its site without looking in any way
grand. It is angled slightly toward the Highwood manor house — an angle, as it hap-
pens, that is identical with that of the Shed. Connected with it, at the rear, is a small-
er pavilion for the musicians, framed and surfaced in wood, where dressing and
practice rooms ring four sides of an interior courtyard with a continuous porch for
informal socializing. The musicians' pavilion is like a tugboat pushing the liner of
Ozawa Hall. Together, the two buildings share a modest entry court.
Indoors, Seiji Ozawa Hall is made of stucco walls painted a warm off-white.
Two tiers of balcony line three sides, faced with railings in teak. The ceiling is of
pre-cast concrete coffers whose natural color is the same as that of the walls. Above
the ceiling, beneath the copper vault, is the mechanical room, with fans for air
changes and modest air-conditioning of the stage and its instruments. On the stage,
the musicians sit on a stepped terrace floor, the elements of which can be tele-
scoped back beneath one another when a flat floor is needed. The terrace is Kirke-
gaard's invention and allows the orchestra members to be easily visible to one
another and to the audience.
Behind the stage is a balcony for choruses. If desired, the hall can be reversed
'•'*(. fc ; .,
for intimate performances, in which case this balcony becomes seating for a small
audience, and the musician performs against a temporary movable backdrop.
Invisible behind all this, within the walls and above the ceiling, is the structural
skeleton of steel columns, beams, and trusses.
Seen purely as architecture, Ozawa Hall is hard to categorize simply. Architect
Rawn has little patience with passing fads or styles, but he does possess a strong
urge to accommodate new buildings within the traditions of the past. Ozawa Hall's
interior is a traditional shoebox shape, like Symphony Hall in Boston. Details like
the coffered ceiling and gridded balcony rails can't exactly be called ornamental,
but they do embody a memory, simplified as befits a country setting, of the gilded
and sculptured interiors of the past. Outdoors, the wood galleries recall the long
lazy porches of resorts and summer camps, and the big brick shape suggests the
great rural mills of New England. Taken as a whole, Seiji Ozawa Hall reminds this
writer of only one other building, a personal favorite, the tiny but monumental
church of Santa Maria dei Miracoli in Venice, another powerful, round-vaulted,
self-confident shape.
Summer has come to Tanglewood now. The leaves are on the trees and the
breeze drifts cool off the Stockbridge Bowl. The unsuspecting visitor will arrive,
unaware that the beloved Tanglewood is, suddenly, twice as big, twice as wonder-
ful. It will be as if you sat down to a small-screen black and white movie, only to
watch it explode into wide-screen color. On that new and larger screen, Seiji
Ozawa Hall takes its place as the central figure in the newest act of the ever-
unfolding drama that is Tanglewood.
Seiji Ozawa Hall
Just (Some of) the Facts
Seiji Ozawa Hall's Florence Gould Auditorium is an 1,180-seat enclosed concert
space designed to accommodate a variety of performance, rehearsal, and recording
activities at Tanglewood, the BSO's summer home. Folding doors at the west end of
the building permit the Hall to open directly onto a lawn which provides space for at
least 2,000 additional listeners. With the doors closed, the Hall is also designed to
serve as a recording facility. The Leonard Bernstein Performers Pavilion adjacent to
the main structure contains back-of-house facilities encompassing a conductor's
suite, dressing rooms, instrument storage space, practice rooms, and a recording
booth, all organized around a cloister-like courtyard that can serve as a gathering
place for the Tanglewood Music Center Fellows.

In Tribute to Florence Gould
Florence Gould
Florence Lacaze Gould, for whom the Florence Gould Auditorium in Seiji Ozawa
Hall is named, was born in San Francisco to French parents in 1895. The San Fran-
cisco earthquake
of 1906 destroyed
her father's printing
house, and the fam-
ily returned to
France. Florence
f^ ^»* J^ftyJB IjMk arrived not speaking
m PittH *n _. aVvI M ; | B a word of Frencn >
d&jtk % 11 but she was quick,
/ K V ■**' Wil,i **»^ ll intelligent, and mu-
^ ■ sically gifted, and
by the age of sixteen
she was studying
voice at the Paris
Conservatory. Al-
though she asserted
throughout her life
that she "had not a drop of American blood," she remained a U.S. citizen until her
death in 1983.
Florence returned to San Francisco with her new husband, an American architect,
at the outbreak of World War I, but the marriage did not last and she returned to
France in 1917. Following the Armistice, she recommenced her musical studies, and
was often to be found singing in the salons of Paris, along with the likes of the
famous Parisian entertainer Collette. It was at such an event that she caught the eye
of Frank Jay Gould, son of the American railroad magnate Jay Gould. The two were
married in 1923 and, at her husband's request, Florence gave up her singing career.
The Goulds were at the center of social life in the South of France during the
1920s and 1930s, where they attracted an international crowd of socialites, artists,
and writers. They remained in France throughout World War II, during which time
Florence served as a nurse and established a famous literary salon that became a cen-
ter of intellectual life in wartime Paris. It was also at this time that she became a
patron of contemporary painters, Braque and Picasso among them, and began amass-
ing an extraordinary collection of modern art.
Frank Gould died in 1956, leaving an enormous fortune to his wife. Florence
Gould continued her philanthropy to the arts, and was awarded the Legion d'Hon-
neur by French President Charles de Gaulle in 1961. The guests of her salon tended
no longer to be rebellious, avant-garde intellectuals, but, instead, great established
personages, many of them members of the Academic She also surrounded herself
with the leading European and American art collectors, dealers, and cultural leaders.
At the time of her death, her art collection included works by Bonnard, Cassat,
Cezanne, Corot, Degas, Gaugin, Toulouse-Lautrec, Manet, Monet, Pissarro, Renoir,
and Van Gogh. The majority of the proceeds from the sale of her estate was given to
the Florence Gould Foundation, the principal purpose of which is to foster Franco-
American amity and collaboration. The Florence Gould Foundation endowed the
auditorium of Seiji Ozawa Hall, naming it in honor of Mrs. Gould, in 1990, and sim-
ilarly has named other cultural facilities throughout the United States and in France.
The Foundation also has endowed a Fellowship at the Tanglewood Music Center for
the benefit of talented young French musicians.
An Introduction to Tonight's Program
Everyone working at Tanglewood in the summer of 1994 knew from the very
start — even before a single note of music was sounded within its walls — that Seiji
Ozawa Hall would be a special place. The warmth of the materials; the intimacy of
the ambiance, which, by virtue of sightlines and seating plan, encouraged an
extraordinary connectedness between performers and audience members alike; the
positioning of the Hall within the Tanglewood landscape, surrounded by trees,
grass, the day or night sky — every thing felt just right, with that unique sense of an
unmistakable aura. And then that first summer bore out the Hall's acoustical excel-
lence as well, with its encompassing warmth (there's that word again), intimacy,
clarity, and presence, an acoustic hos-
pitable to music of all kinds, and to
performance groups of any size, rang-
ing from solo performers to duo-re-
citalists to ensembles large and small.
Now, ten years later, Seiji Ozawa
Hall has exceeded all expectations,
drawing not only thousands of satis-
fied listeners each season — many of
whom can't help but marvel repeated-
ly at the building itself, as well as at
the music being performed — but also
encouraging return visits from the
artists who feel privileged to play
here. And as the reputation of the
venue itself has grown, so, too, has the
annual number of events that take
place within it. The tightly packed
schedule of rehearsals and perform-
ances each summer means that there is
music sounding in Ozawa Hall nearly
every hour of every day throughout
July and August. Each year, besides
serving as the principal concert venue
of the Tanglewood Music Center (the
BSO's summer institute for young
The atrium of the Leonard Bernstein
Performers Pavilion during construction,
August 13, 1993
musicians on the verge of professional careers), Ozawa Hall also houses perform-
ances by members of the BSO, by the Boston Symphony Chamber Players, by the
Tanglewood Festival Chorus, by the Boston University Tanglewood Institute, and
by a distinguished series of international guest artists who perform at Tanglewood
on weeknights and occasional Sunday nights throughout the summer under the
auspices of the Boston Symphony Orchestra.
Tonight's concert celebrates the opening of Seiji Ozawa Hall ten years ago, on
July 7, 1994. The program for this evening speaks not only to the significance of
that event, but to the Hall's history as well, by offering a wide range of music — for
solo voice, solo piano, chorus, chamber ensemble, and orchestra — reflecting the
diversity of programming heard here in the past decade, and by bringing together
performers who have either figured in the Hall's history to date, or who represent
a new generation of the talent being continually fostered within the Hall's Florence
Gould Auditorium. Seiji Ozawa, John Williams, the Boston Symphony Chamber
Tm
S
Players, and the Tanglewood Festival Chorus, led by its founding conductor John
Oliver, of course need no introduction. Seiji Ozawa and John Williams both par-
ticipated in the 1994 inaugural concert, which included a new work commissioned
by the BSO from Mr. Williams especially for that occasion (his Concerto for Cello
and Orchestra, featuring Yo-Yo Ma).
Among tonight's other participants, Stephanie Blythe — who was a Tanglewood
Music Center Vocal Fellow in 1993 and 1994 — has established herself as one of
today's most sought-after mezzo-sopra-
nos. In fact, Ms. Blythe was the first
singer to perform in Seiji Ozawa Hall,
when, as a TMC Fellow in 1994, she
participated in a private "test concert"
prior to the official opening. Represent-
ing an even younger generation of artists
are the Chinese pianist Yundi Li, who
has won the attention of an international
audience just within the past year, and
the American baritone Kyle Ferrill, who
is in his second summer as a TMC Vocal
Fellow. Further reflecting the wide range
of international artists who have per-
formed in Seiji Ozawa Hall is Mayumi
Miyata, who has devoted herself to
bringing the sho — a Chinese or Indo-
Chinese reed instrument constructed
from bamboo pipes of varying lengths —
to international recognition, and who
tonight collaborates with Seiji Ozawa
in music by a composer Mr. Ozawa has
long championed.
Several of the composers whose music
is programmed this evening are likewise germane to the history of Seiji Ozawa
Hall and Tanglewood. Both Leonard Bernstein and Aaron Copland were brought
to Tanglewood as Music Center faculty members when Serge Koussevitzky estab-
lished the Berkshire Music Center (as it was then called) in 1940. Both remained
esteemed figures at Tanglewood for decades, Bernstein, in particular, serving as a
guide and spiritual mentor to successive generations of Music Center Fellows
(including Seiji Ozawa in 1960) for the remaining half-century of his life.
The inaugural concert in July 1994 opened with Seiji Ozawa leading benedicto-
ry music of J.S. Bach. The first three works on tonight's program are likewise, and
fittingly, benedictory in nature — Copland's In the Beginning (1947), which sets the
Biblical tale of the Creation from Genesis for unaccompanied chorus with solo
mezzo-soprano; Takemitsu's Ceremonial: An Autumn Ode, for sho and orchestra,
which was commissioned by Seiji Ozawa and the Saito Kinen Festival for perform-
ance at the very first Saito Kinen Festival in 1992; and Bernstein's Opening Prayer
for baritone and orchestra, which was written originally for the reopening of
Carnegie Hall in December 1986 and later incorporated as the middle movement
(under the title "Benediction") of Bernstein's Jubilee Games. (Jubilee Games was
composed for the fiftieth anniversary of the Israel Philharmonic, which premiered
the original two-movement form of that work in September 1986.) Sung in Hebrew,
Releasing the hoisting sling of a pair of
trusses, June 22, 1993
the text of Opening Prayer — which was also included in the Ozawa Hall inaugural
concert ten years ago — comes from the Bible (Numbers 6:24-26):
The Lord bless thee, and keep thee:
The Lord make his face shine upon thee, and be gracious unto thee:
The Lord lift up his countenance upon thee, and give thee peace.
Also worth noting in this context is Wagner's Siegfried Idyll, which — though
employing themes from the composer's massive Der Ring des Nibelungen — was
composed for a much more quiet, thoughtful, and intimate purpose, as a birthday
gift for his wife Cosima, the work first being performed at the foot of the staircase
in the Wagner home near Lake Lucerne on the morning of Cosima's birthday, De-
cember 25, 1870. Beyond that, we also hear music of Chopin and Liszt performed
by the young Yundi Li, and, to close the proceedings, Verdi's rousing overture to
the opera Laforza del destino (1869), programmed to showcase the virtuosic excel-
lence of the Tanglewood Music Center Orchestra under Seiji Ozawa, who led it
with such devotion for so many years during his tenure as the BSO's music direc-
tor.
Thus tonight's program looks back on the distinguished history of Seiji Ozawa
Hall even as it takes its own place on the extraordinary list of events that have
transpired here over the past ten years. Just how much Ozawa Hall itself has con-
tributed to the inspiration evident in so many past performances can only be con-
jectured. Tonight's concert will doubtless speak for itself. But with the past ten
years of music-making in Ozawa Hall now a matter of historical fact, the promise
of future decades seems safely — and perhaps even unquestionably — assured.

Seiji Ozawa
Seiji Ozawa was music director of the Boston Symphony Orchestra
for 29 seasons (1973-2002) — the longest-serving music director in
the orchestra's history. He is now music director of the Vienna State
Opera, the culmination of an association of more than 35 years he
has enjoyed with Vienna's most distinguished musical institutions. He
began the appointment in the 2002-03 season, having conducted regu-
larly at the Vienna State Opera for many seasons, and as an annual
and favored guest of the Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra (VPO). Mr.
Ozawa is also artistic director and founder of the Saito Kinen Festival — Japan's preemi-
nent music and opera festival — and of the Saito Kinen Orchestra (SKO). In the 2003-04
Vienna State Opera season, Mr. Ozawa led a new production of Der fliegende Holland-
er as well as performances of Mozart's Le nozze di Figaro, Cost fan tutte, and Don Gio-
vanni, Janacek's Jenufa, and Krenek's Jonny spielt auf. This season he also conducts the
VPO on tour to New York for its annual Carnegie Hall performances, and on tour to
Asia with concerts in Beijing, Shanghai, Taipei, and Seoul. In Vienna he conducted sev-
eral VPO programs, among them a pair of concerts with cellist Mstislav Rostropovich,
including the world premiere of a concerto by Krzysztof Penderecki together with the
Dvorak Cello Concerto. Other highlights of 2003-04 season have included the Saito
Kinen Orchestra's seventh European tour and a return to the Berlin Philharmonic. Mr.
Ozawa also devotes attention to teaching and training. While he was the BSO's music
director, he also served as artistic director of the Tanglewood Music Center. In 2000, in
Japan, he founded the Ozawa Ongaku-Juku, an academy for aspiring young orchestral
musicians. Born in 1935 in Shenyang, China, Seiji Ozawa graduated with first prizes in
both composition and conducting from Tokyo's Toho School of Music. In 1959 he won
first prize at the International Competition of Orchestra Conductors in Besan§on, France,
where he came to the attention of Charles Munch, then music director of the Boston
Symphony, who invited him to Tanglewood, where he won the Koussevitzky Prize as
outstanding student conductor in 1960. While working with Herbert von Karajan in
West Berlin, Mr. Ozawa came to the attention of Leonard Bernstein, who appointed
him assistant conductor of the New York Philharmonic for the 1961-62 season. He
made his first professional concert appearance in North America in January 1962, with
the San Francisco Symphony. He was music director of the Ravinia Festival, summer
home of the Chicago Symphony (1964-69); music director of the Toronto Symphony
(1965-69); and music director of the San Francisco Symphony (1970-76). He first con-
ducted the Boston Symphony in 1964 and became its music director in 1973, leaving a
legacy of brilliant achievement evidenced through touring, award-winning recordings,
television productions, and commissioned works. In recent years, numerous honors and
achievements have underscored Mr. Ozawa's standing on the international music scene.
French President Jacques Chirac named him Chevalier de la Legion d'Honneur in 2001,
and he has been honored as "Musician of the Year" by Musical America. In February
1998, fulfilling a longtime ambition of joining musicians across the globe, he led the
opening ceremonies at the Winter Olympics in Nagano, Japan, conducting the SKO
and six choruses located on five different continents, all linked by satellite, in the "Ode to
Joy" from Beethoven's Ninth Symphony. In 1994 he received Japan's first-ever Inouye
Award (named after Japan's pre-eminent novelist), recognizing lifetime achievement in
the arts. The year 1994 also saw the opening of Seiji Ozawa Hall at Tanglewood. Mr.
Ozawa holds honorary degrees from Harvard University, the University of Massachu-
setts, Wheaton College, and the New England Conservatory of Music.

country and at a number of youth competitions in the U.S. Yundi Li was one of the
youngest winners in the history of the Chopin Competition and also the first person in
fifteen years to be awarded a first prize. As an exclusive Deutsche Grammophon re-
cording artist, his debut recording was of Chopin solo piano works, and his second
album is of Liszt recital works — the Liszt disc being named "Best of the Year" by the
New York Times. A recording of Chopin scherzos is planned for release in fall 2004, to
be followed by a new recording each year until 2009. Yundi Li currently lives in Han-
nover, Germany, where he studies with Arie Vardie at the Hannover Conservatory of
Music.
Mayumi Miyata
Mayumi Miyata is one of the first artists to bring the sho, the tradi-
tional Oriental instrument, to worldwide recognition. Through her
performances at the invitation of international festivals around the
world, her artistry has helped expand awareness of the sho both in
Japan and overseas. Having graduated from Kunitachi College of
Music in piano, Ms. Miyata studied Gagaku (ancient Japanese court
music) and from 1979 performed in the Gagaku ensemble at the
National Theater of Japan. Since 1993 she has been active as a soloist
in traditional music as well as proving that the sho has a valid place in contemporary
music. While the sho is traditionally associated with Gagaku, Ms. Miyata is highly
acclaimed for her performances of contemporary compositions by many of the world's
leading composers. She worked particularly closely with John Cage, having performed
the world premiere of all of Cage's Two 3 for sho and conch in Italy in 1992. In 2000 she
played in the first performance of his 108 for orchestra and sho with the WDR Sym-
phony Orchestra in Cologne. In April 2001 she gave the world premiere of Cage's com-
plete One 9 for solo sho as part of a recital series in Tokyo which also included the Japan
premiere of Cage's Two 3 , and a recital devoted to the complete version of the Gagaku
suite Cboshi. Other composers with whom Ms Miyata is associated are Torii Takemitsu
(whose Ceremonial: An Autumn Ode she premiered with the Saito Kinen Orchestra
under the baton of Seiji Ozawa) and Toshio Hosokawa. Ms. Miyata performed in the
world, Japanese, and Stuttgart Opera premieres of Helmut Lachenmann's Das Madchen
mit den Schwefelholzern ("The Little Match Girl"). She has also premiered works by
Paul Mefano, Klaus Huber, Pierre- Yves Artaud, Zsigmond Szathmary, Toshi Ichiyanagi,
Maki Ishii, and Joji Yuasa. Recent appearances have included a tour as soloist with the
NHK Symphony and Czech Philharmonic orchestras, as well as appearances at the Alte
Oper Frankfurt, at the Berlin Philharmonie as part of the Berlinerfestwochen, with the
Orchestre Symphonique de la Monnaie in Hosokawa's Utsurohi Nagi, with the New
York Philharmonic and Andre Previn in Takemitsu's Ceremonial: An Autumn Ode, and
at the Festival d'Avignon. She performed the Japanese National Anthem at the Opening
Ceremony of the Nagano Winter Olympic Games in 1998, and she has participated in
festivals throughout Europe. Recital appearances have brought her to the Brooklyn
Museum in New York, Paris, Amsterdam, La Scala's Piccolo Teatro, Milan, and the Kon-
zerthaus in Vienna. Her discography includes works of Cage, Hosokawa, and Takemitsu.

Boston Symphony Chamber Players
One of the world's most distinguished
chamber music ensembles sponsored by a
major symphony orchestra and made up of
that orchestra's principal players, the Bos-
ton Symphony Chamber Players include
the Boston Symphony's first-desk string,
woodwind, brass, and percussion players.
Founded in 1964 during Erich Leinsdorf's
tenure as BSO music director, the Chamber
Players can perform virtually any work
within the vast chamber music literature; they can expand their range of repertory by
calling upon other BSO members or enlisting the services of such distinguished guest
artists as pianists Emanuel Ax, Garrick Ohlsson, and Andre Previn. The Chamber
Players' activities include an annual four-concert series in Boston's Jordan Hall at the
New England Conservatory of Music, regular appearances at Tanglewood, and a busy
schedule of touring and recording. In addition to appearances throughout the United
States, the group has toured Europe and Japan on numerous occasions; they have also
performed in South America and the former Soviet Union. Among the Chamber Play-
ers' recordings on Nonesuch are the Beethoven Septet and Schubert Octet; Smetana's
G major piano trio and Dvorak's string sextet; the Brahms string quintets; John Harbi-
son's Words from Paterson with baritone Sanford Sylvan; a Copland album with pianist
Gilbert Kalish; and a disc of music by Leon Kirchner. For Philips the ensemble has
recorded the quintets for clarinet and strings by Mozart and Brahms with former BSO
principal clarinet, the late Harold Wright. Deutsche Grammophon has reissued, on a
single compact disc, the Chamber Players' recordings of Stravinsky's Octet for Winds,
Pastorale, Ragtime, and Concertino for Twelve Instruments, and Johann Strauss waltzes
as arranged for chamber ensemble by Schoenberg, Berg, and Webern.
Tanglewood Festival Chorus
John Oliver, Conductor
The Tanglewood Festival Chorus was organized in the spring of 1970,
when founding conductor John Oliver became director of vocal and
choral activities at the Tanglewood Music Center. Made up of mem-
bers who donate their services, and originally formed for performanc-
es at the BSO's summer home, the Tanglewood Festival Chorus is
now the official chorus of the Boston Symphony Orchestra year-
round, performing in Boston, New York, and at Tanglewood. It gives
its own Friday-evening Prelude Concert each summer in Seiji Ozawa
Hall, and it performed its Jordan Hall debut program this past May in Boston. The
Tanglewood Festival Chorus has also performed with the Boston Symphony in Europe
under Bernard Haitink and in the Far East under Seiji Ozawa. In addition, members
of the chorus have performed Beethoven's Ninth Symphony with Zubin Mehta and the
Israel Philharmonic at Tanglewood and at the Mann Music Center in Philadelphia, and
have participated in a Saito Kinen Festival production of Britten's Peter Grimes under
Seiji Ozawa in Japan. In February 1998, singing from the General Assembly Hall of the
United Nations, the chorus represented the United States in the Opening Ceremonies of
the 1998 Winter Olympics when Seiji Ozawa led six choruses on five continents, all
linked by satellite, in Beethoven's Ode to Joy. The Tanglewood Festival Chorus can be
heard on Boston Symphony recordings under Ozawa and Haitink, and on recordings
with the Boston Pops Orchestra under Keith Lockhart and John Williams. With
Bernard Haitink and the BSO they have recorded Ravel's Daphnis et Chloe and
Brahms 's Alto Rhapsody and Nanie for Philips. Their recordings with Seiji Ozawa
include Mahler's Second, Third, and Eighth symphonies, Strauss's Elektra, Schoenberg's
Gurrelieder, and Bartok's The Miraculous Mandarin, all on Philips; Beethoven's Choral
Fantasy, on Telarc; Mendelssohn's incidental music to A Midsummer Night's Dream, on
Deutsche Grammophon; and Berlioz's Requiem, Faure's Requiem, and Tchaikovsky's
Pique Dame, on RCA Victor Red Seal.
In addition to his work with the Tanglewood Festival Chorus, John Oliver was for
many years conductor of the MIT Chamber Chorus and MIT Concert Choir, and a
senior lecturer in music at MIT Mr. Oliver founded the John Oliver Chorale in 1977;
has appeared as guest conductor with the New Japan Philharmonic and Berkshire
Choral Institute; and has prepared the choruses for performances led by Andre Previn
of Britten's Spring Symphony with the NHK Symphony in Japan and of Brahms 's Ein
deutsches Requiem at Carnegie Hall. Mr. Oliver made his Boston Symphony conduct-
ing debut in August 1985 and led the orchestra most recently in July 1998.

Diana Krall
With her latest album, The Girl In The Other Room, Diana Krall not only illustrates
her understanding of the breadth of possibilities in the jazz idiom but also reveals
her talent as a songwriter. Indeed, the title song of the record is a Krall original.
The album is the first co-produced by Krall and her long-time producer Tommy
LiPuma and includes Krall' s interpretations of Mose Allison's "Stop This World,"
"Love Me Like a Man," Tom Waits' "Temptation," Elvis Costello's "Almost Blue,"
Joni Mitchell's "Black Crow," as well as "I'm Pulling Through." In addition to the
title song, the album also contains several more Krall originals: "I've Changed My
Address," "Narrow Daylight," "Abandoned Masquerade," "I'm Coming Through,"
and "Departure Bay." This last song not only contains vivid and touching images
of her hometown of Nanaimo on Vancouver Island but is also a wrenching descrip-
tion of her family's first Christmas without her mother and a final verse that wel-
comes new love and hope for the future. Musically composed by Krall alone, these
songs mark a lyrical collaboration with her new husband, Elvis Costello. Diana Krall
grew up in the western part of Canada and began studying the piano when she was
four years old. By the time she was 15, she was playing jazz in a local restaurant /bar,
encouraged particularly by her father, a stride piano player. Awarded a scholarship
to Boston's Berklee College of Music, Diana Krall spent two years in Boston, then
moved to Los Angeles, where she met John Clayton, pianist /singer Jimmy Rowles,
and Ray Brown, the legendary bassist who served as her musical mentor. After
three years, she moved to Toronto, and in 1993, the Montreal-based Justin Time
Records released her debut album, Stepping Out. In 1994, she signed with GRP and
recorded Only Trust Your Heart, which marked the beginning of her association
with Tommy LiPuma, who has produced all of Krall' s subsequent albums for GRP,
Impulse!, and Verve, including All for You: A Dedication to the Nat "King" Cole Trio
(1995), Love Scenes (1997), When I Look In Your Eyes (1998), The Look of Love (2001),
and Live in Paris (2003). The album that put her over the top commercially was
When I Look in Your Eyes. In addition to spending 52 weeks in the #1 position on
Billboard's jazz chart, it won Grammys for Best Jazz Vocal Performance and Best
Engineered Album, Non-Classical, and received a nomination in the Album of the
Year category. When I Look in Your Eyes eventually went platinum in the United
States (where it sold over one million units), double platinum in Canada, plat-
inum in Portugal, and gold in France. Her next album, The Look of Love, entered the
Billboard 200 at #9 and sold 95,000 copies in the U.S. alone in its first week. Diana
Krall has appeared in several Tanglewood jazz festivals and in May 2000 made her
debut with Keith Lockhart and the Boston Pops Orchestra in a performance taped
for Evening at Pops.
Ollabelle
Drawing both inspiration and materials from a deep well of rural American roots
music — including gospel, blues, bluegrass, and country — Ollabelle reimagines
these sounds for contemporary audiences, honoring the spirit and substance of the
original sources while allowing this music to live and flourish in a post-modern
era. Ollabelle began as a humble side project for each of its musicians before quickly
evolving into a musical entity with a life — and sensibility — all its own. Amy Helm
(voice) is a Woodstock native who has been singing professionally, primarily in
blues bands, since her teens. Currently a resident of Brooklyn, Byron Isaacs (voice,
bass) has both toured and recorded as a bass player with other artists, but is an
accomplished singer /songwriter in his own right. Tony Leone (voice, drums) is an
accomplished jazz drummer with a long resume of gigs but a previously underuti-
lized singing voice. Hailing from Sydney, Australia, Fiona McBain, (vo
