The Phyllis and Lee Coffey Memorial Concert

BSO Music Director Andris Nelsons and Tanglewood Music Center (TMC) Conducting Fellows lead the TMC Orchestra in music showcasing instrumental color and virtuosity. Abandoned in its two-movement form by Franz Schubert in 1822, the B minor symphony stands out for innovations in form, melody, and orchestration. The two Richard Strauss works on the program are poles apart in intention: the early Death and Transfiguration is a profound imagining of a man’s thoughts and revelations at the end of his life, while the “Dance of the Seven Veils” from the opera Salome is the alluring means by which, at her mother Herodias’s bidding, Salome seduces her stepfather Herod. Maurice Ravel’s charming orchestral suite Le Tombeau de Couperin was in part inspired by the French Baroque composer François Couperin.

Leonard Bernstein Memorial Concert
The 2022 Leonard Bernstein Memorial Concert is supported by generous endowments established in perpetuity by Dr. Raymond and Hannah H. Schneider, and Diane H. Lupean.

Acclaimed dramatic soprano Christine Goerke joins Music Director Andris Nelsons in a rarely heard early work by the French innovator Hector Berlioz. Berlioz’s passionate “lyric scene” La Mort de Cléopâtre is a monodrama in which the Egyptian queen meditates on the triumphs and tragedies of her life at the moment of her death. Another orchestral innovator, Gustav Mahler composed his towering Fifth Symphony in 1901-02 following an intensive study of J.S. Bach’s counterpoint, resulting in a new and highly individual approach to the orchestra. The fourth movement is the famous and moving Adagietto for strings and harp.

Ticket includes admission to 6pm Prelude Concert.

The Daniel Freed and Shirlee Cohen Freed Memorial Concert

Longtime Buffalo Philharmonic music director JoAnn Falletta (in her Tanglewood debut), BSO Artistic Partner Thomas Adès, and Tanglewood Music Center (TMC) Fellows lead the TMC Orchestra in a range of modernist orchestral showpieces. Claude Debussy composed his two-movement tone poem Printemps originally in his early 20s; after the orchestral version was lost, he worked with his collaborator Henri Büsser 25 years later to restore and enhance its radical instrumental colors. Igor Stravinsky’s ballet score Agon is a thrilling yet austere late work for small orchestra that sounds both ancient and unequivocally modern, akin to his much earlier Symphonies of Wind Instruments. Dating from 1981, the late St. Louis-born composer Olly Wilson’s Lumina is a scintillating single-movement orchestral landscape. Paul Hindemith’s kaleidoscopic Symphonic Metamorphosis, virtually a catalog of orchestral and compositional possibility, was the composer’s purist foray into neoclassicism.

Stefan Asbury and Tanglewood Music Center (TMC) Conducting Fellows lead the TMC Orchestra in this eclectic program. Lost for decades and rediscovered in 2009, Florence Price’s folk-music-tinged 1932 suite Ethiopia’s Shadow in America portrays an enslaved man’s spiritual journey from the time of his arrival on this continent. Béla Bartók’s brilliantly lurid ballet score The Miraculous Mandarin is an astonishing feat of musical storytelling and imaginative orchestration. Sergei Rachmaninoff’s absorbing and emotionally wide-ranging Symphony No. 2 harks back to the late 19th century but at the same time is characterized by Rachmaninoff’s unique gifts for expansive melody and careful musical architecture.
