QUOTE FROM MARK VOLPE, BOSTON SYMPHONY ORCHESTRA
“The Boston Symphony Orchestra ’s performances in Japan and China with esteemed conductor Lorin Maazel this spring mark the BSO’s eagerly anticipated returnto these two great countries, while also signifying the orchestra’s plan to reengage in regular touring to Asia and Europe over the next few years,” said Mark Volpe, BSO Managing Director.

“It is especially gratifying for the BSO to perform again in China after its historic trip there in 1979, as we will be returning to a country that has been dramatically transformed culturally and economically since our visit there 35 years ago. And it is always thrilling for the orchestra to perform for its loyal audiences in Tokyo, where the BSO appeared so often during Mr. Ozawa’s 29-year tenure with the orchestra. We promise not to let too much time go by before returning to these wonderful places again, including visits with the BSO’s new music director Andris Nelsons, who begins his tenure full time next fall. On an important final note, I must express our deep gratitude to EMC Corporation and State Street Corporation for all their support in making this tour possible.”

PREVIOUS BOSTON SYMPHONY TOURS TO JAPAN AND CHINA
The BSO and China
The BSO’s historic tour to China in 1979—put together in less than two months following an official invitation from the Chinese Ministry of Culture—marked the opening exchange in the then recently signed cultural pact between the United States and the People’s Republic of China. The BSO performed one concert in Shanghai on March 15 and three concerts in Beijing (called Peking at the time) on March 17, 18, and 19, the last of which was a joint performance with the Central Philharmonic Orchestra of Peking performed in the 18,000 seat Capital Stadium. During the tour BSO principal players held master classes at the Shanghai Conservatory, and Seiji Ozawa conducted a reading rehearsal with the Shanghai Symphony Orchestra. The BSO brought four complete sets of strings, brass mouthpieces, orchestra scores of music by Copland, Gershwin, Bartk, and Schuman, and sets of recordings, as well as United States-China Flag pins, Boston Symphony T-shirts, and frisbees—all to be presented to the Chinese musicians. The BSO was to return to China in 1999 as part of a season-long celebration of Seiji Ozawa’s 25th anniversary with the orchestra, but the trip was canceled at the last minute after the errant NATO bombing of the Chinese embassy in Belgrade; despite the cancellations of the orchestra’s concerts, Seiji Ozawa, who was born in China, was able to continue on to China to honor his commitment to teach at Beijing’s Central Conservatory of Music, where he found the level of performance high and appreciated the many sentiments of regret expressed about the tour’s cancellation.

The BSO and Japan
The Boston Symphony first toured to Japan May 4-30, 1960, under the direction of Charles Munch, the BSO’s music director 1949-62. This 16-city tour also included performances under the direction of Aaron Copland and Richard Burgin (BSO’s associate conductor and concertmaster) with tour repertoire including music of Bach, Barber, Beethoven, Berlioz, Blackwood, Copland, Debussy, Dello Joio, Handel, Haydn, Kirchner, Mahler, Mendelssohn, Piston, Purcell, Ravel, Roussel, and Wagner. Seiji Ozawa, BSO Music Director 1973-2002, would lead the BSO in subsequent tours to Japan in 1978, 1981, 1986, 1989, 1994, and 1999. A highlight of Mr. Ozawa and the BSO’s first tour to Japan in 1978 was an appearance in Tokyo by the legendary pianist Rudolf Serkin, who performed Brahms’s Piano Concerto No. 1 in D minor. In 1981, the BSO shared its year-long centennial celebration and showcased some of the orchestra’s rich and deep history with their Japanese audiences. In 1986, several members of the orchestra accompanied Mr. Ozawa on a visit to Cenotaph in Hiroshima’s Peace Park to lay a wreath of white carnations and orchids. In 1994 the BSO was honored by the unusual appearance at a public concert by Japan’s Crown Prince Naruhito and Princess Masako. The BSO’s 1999 Japan tour, part of a season-long celebration of Ozawa’s 25th anniversary leading the orchestra, was filled with mixed emotions for Ozawa and the orchestra, as it would be their last Japan tour together with Mr. Ozawa at the helm as music director.

The BSO’s 2014 tour to China and Japan has been organized by Harrison Parrott, Ltd. (www.harrisonparrott.com); HarrisonParrott has been very active in China since the late 1990s and in Japan since the 1970s arranging in both countries an ever growing program of artists and orchestra tours. AMATI Inc. (www.amati-tokyo.com) has been an organizational partner for the BSO concerts in Tokyo.

Lorin Maazel
Since his initial Boston Symphony appearances in December 1960, Lorin Maazel has returned to the BSO podium many times, both at Symphony Hall and Tanglewood, most recently bringing the BSO’s 2013-14 season to an end with the same programs that will be performed during the orchestra’s tour to China and Japan (link to BSO/Maazel performance history).

The years 2014 and 2015 will host events world-wide to celebrate Maestro Maazel’s 85th birthday and his 60 years as a performing artist. Among the participating orchestras: Berlin Philharmonic, Chicago Symphony Orchestra, Boston Symphony Orchestra, Philharmonia Orchestra, Munich Philharmonic and Vienna Philharmonic. From Beijing to St. Petersburg, from London to Hong Kong, the Maestro will be making music for his devoted fans. He has also agreed to perform his own music, which he has heretofore been reluctant to do despite its being so well received.

The stats for 2013 show the Maestro conducting 111 concerts with 11 different orchestras on tour to thirty cities. 2014 and 2015 will see a major increase in these numbers. But, as he repeatedly states in his blog www.maestromaazel.com, it’s the quality of the music-making that counts and the passing on of his love for music to the young who must hold high in the coming years the torch of the Performing Arts.

The Castleton Festival is where the Maestro’s heart is. As the music soars, he rejoices in seeing young players, singers and conductors be transported to unimagined realms.

Maestro’s skills as Music Director and conductor were honed during the years of his tenure as Artistic Director of the Deutsche Oper Berlin and General Manager of the Vienna State Opera, as Music Director of the Radio Symphony of Berlin, the Symphony Orchestra of the Bavarian Radio, the Pittsburgh Symphony, the Cleveland Orchestra, the Munich Philharmonic and the New York Philharmonic. The Castleton Festival now benefits from his six decades at the helm.

The Maestro has been awarded Commandeur de la Lgion d’honneur twice in France, the Bundesverdienstkreuz in Germany, the Premio Abbiati in Italy, the Commander of the Lion in Finland, the Groes Goldenes Ehrenzeichen fr Verdienste um die Republik sterreich as well as the Honorary Membership of the Wiener Philharmoniker and Wiener Staatsoper in Austria, the Honorary Life Membership of the Israel Philharmonic in Israel, and together with Mae West and Pope John Paul II, the title of Kentucky Colonel.

Janine Jansen
Violinist Janine Jansen made her Boston Symphony debut at Tanglewood in August 2008, with Saint-Sans’s Violin Concerto No. 3 under the direction of Rafael Frhbeck de Burgos, and her subscription series debut in March 2009, performing Brahms’s Double Concerto with cellist Alisa Weilerstein, under the direction of Hans Graf.

Ms. Jansen works regularly with the world’s most eminent orchestras, including the Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra, Berlin Philharmonic, and the New York Philharmonic, among others. Her conductor collaborations include such distinguished names as Valery Gergiev, Zubin Mehta, Lorin Maazel, Gustavo Dudamel, Mariss Jansons, Sir Antonio Pappano, and Bernard Haitink. During the 2013-14 season Ms. Jansen embarks on a number of international tours, beginning with a performance of Britten’s Violin Concerto at the BBC Proms with Orchestre de Paris and Paavo Jrvi. In addition to her performances with the Boston Symphony Orchestra and Lorin Maazel, she is also the soloist on tour with London’s Philharmonia Orchestra and Esa-Pekka Salonen in Europe. In celebration of the release of her new J.S. Bach album, the ensemble “Janine and Friends” embarks on two extensive European tours this season, with concerts in Berlin, Munich, Vienna, London, Amsterdam, and Paris. Following acclaimed performances in past seasons, Ms. Jansen returns to the Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra, London Symphony Orchestra, Gewandhaus Orchestra of Leipzig, New York Philharmonic, the Philadelphia Orchestra, and the Cleveland Orchestra, as well as the Royal Stockholm, Oslo, and Rotterdam philharmonic orchestras. She will also perform with the Chamber Orchestra of Europe and Bernard Haitink. A devoted chamber musician, she performs on two duo recital tours with pianist Itamar Golan in Spain and Italy, and is joined by cellist Torleif Theden for several trio recitals. Janine Jansen established and curates the annual International Chamber Music Festival Utrecht (Holland), and since 1998 has performed each season at Spectrum Concerts Berlin, a chamber music series at Berlin’s Philharmonie.

Particularly renowned for her success in the digital music charts, Ms. Jansen records exclusively for Decca (Universal Music). Future releases include an album of J.S. Bach concertos and sonatas. Past recordings include Prokofiev’s Violin Concerto No. 2 with the London Philharmonic Orchestra and Vladimir Jurowski; the Beethoven and Britten concertos with Paavo Jrvi; Mendelssohn and Bruch concertos with Riccardo Chailly, and Tchaikovsky’s concerto with Daniel Harding. Janine has also recently released a chamber project disc, including Schubert’s String Quintet and Schoenberg’s Verklrte Nacht, in celebration of the tenth anniversary of her International Chamber Music Festival Utrecht. Janine Jansen’s numerous awards include four Edison Klassiek Awards, three Echo Klassik awards, the Preis der Deutschen Schallplattenkritik, the NDR Musikpreis for outstanding artistic achievement, and, most recently, the Concertgebouw Prize. She has been given the VSCD Klassieke Muziekprijs for individual achievement and the RPS Instrumentalist Award for performances in the United Kingdom. She studied with Coosje Wijzenbeek, Philipp Hirshhorn, and Boris Belkin. The outstanding instrument she plays is the “Barrere” by Antonio Stradivari (1727), on extended loan from the Elise Mathilde Foundation.

A Brief History of the Boston Symphony Orchestra
Now in its 133rd season, the Boston Symphony Orchestra gave its inaugural concert in 1881, realizing the dream of its founder, the Civil War veteran/businessman/philanthropist Henry Lee Higginson, who envisioned a great and permanent orchestra in his hometown of Boston. In 2014, the orchestra will continue to build upon its storied history with the beginning of a new chapter as Andris Nelsons becomes the orchestra’s 15th music director at the start of the BSO’s 2014-15 season.

Today the BSO reaches millions of listeners, not only through its concert performances in Boston and at Tanglewood, but also via the internet, radio, television, educational programs, recordings, and tours. It commissions works from today’s most important composers; its summer season at Tanglewood in the Berkshire hills of Western Massachusetts is among the world’s most important music festivals; it helps develop future audiences through BSO Youth Concerts and educational outreach programs involving the entire Boston community; and, during the Tanglewood season, it operates the Tanglewood Music Center, one of the world’s most important training grounds for young professional-caliber musicians. The Boston Symphony Chamber Players, made up of BSO principals, are known worldwide, and the Boston Pops Orchestra—with its cabaret style festive atmosphere and food and drink served during the concerts—setsan international standard for performances of lighter music. The BSO’s winter season and the Boston Pops holiday and spring seasons take place in Boston’s Symphony Hall, widely acclaimed for its great acoustics and considered among the top concert halls in the world.

Launched in 1996, the BSO’s website, bso.org, is the largest and most-visited orchestral website in the United States, receiving approximately 7 million visitors annually on its full site as well as its smart phone-/mobile device-friendly web format. The BSO is also on Facebook and Twitter, and video content from the BSO is available on YouTube. An expansion of the BSO’s educational activities has also played a key role in strengthening the orchestra’s commitment to, and presence within, its surrounding communities. Through its Education and Community Engagement programs, the BSO provides individuals of all backgrounds the opportunity to develop and build relationships with the BSO and orchestral music. In addition, the BSO offers a variety of free educational programs at Symphony Hall and Tanglewood, as well as special initiatives aimed at attracting young audience members.

The Boston Symphony Orchestra gave its inaugural concert on October 22, 1881, under Georg Henschel, who remained as conductor until 1884. For nearly twenty years, BSO concerts were held in the old Boston Music Hall; Symphony Hall, one of the world’s most revered concert halls, opened on October 15, 1900. Henschel was succeeded by the German-born and -trained conductors Wilhelm Gericke, Arthur Nikisch, Emil Paur, and Max Fiedler, culminating in the appointment of the legendary Karl Muck, who served two tenures, 1906-08 and 1912-18. In 1915 the orchestra made its first transcontinental trip, playing thirteen concerts at the Panama-Pacific International Exposition in San Francisco. Henri Rabaud, engaged as conductor in 1918, was succeeded a year later by Pierre Monteux. These appointments marked the beginning of a French tradition maintained, even during the Russian-born Serge Koussevitzky’s tenure (1924-49), with the employment of many French-trained musicians.

It was in 1936 that Koussevitzky led the orchestra’s first concerts in the Berkshires; he and the players took up annual summer residence at Tanglewood a year later. Koussevitzky passionately shared Major Higginson’s dream of “a good honest school for musicians,” and in 1940 that dream was realized with the founding of the Berkshire Music Center (now called the Tanglewood Music Center).

Koussevitzky was succeeded in 1949 by Charles Munch, who continued supporting contemporary composers, introduced much French music to the repertoire, and led the BSO on its first international tours. In 1956, the BSO, under the direction of Charles Munch, was the first American orchestra to tour the Soviet Union. Erich Leinsdorf began his term as music director in 1962, to be followed in 1969 by William Steinberg. Seiji Ozawa became the BSO’s thirteenth music director in 1973. His historic twenty-nine-year tenure extended until 2002, when he was named Music Director Laureate. In 1979, the BSO, under the direction of Seiji Ozawa, was the first American orchestra to tour mainland China after the normalization of relations.

Bernard Haitink, named principal guest conductor in 1995 and Conductor Emeritus in 2004, has led the BSO in Boston, New York, at Tanglewood, and on tour in Europe, as well as recording with the orchestra. Previous principal guest conductors of the orchestra included Michael Tilson Thomas, from 1972 to 1974, and the late Sir Colin Davis, from 1972 to 1984.

The first American-born conductor to hold the position, James Levine was the BSO’s music director from 2004 to 2011. Levine led the orchestra in wide-ranging programs that included works newly commissioned for the orchestra’s 125th anniversary, particularly from significant American composers; issued a number of live concert performances on the orchestra’s own label, BSO Classics; taught at the Tanglewood Music Center; and in 2007 led the BSO in an acclaimed tour of European music festivals. In May 2013, a new chapter in the history of the Boston Symphony Orchestra was initiated when the internationally acclaimed young Latvian conductor Andris Nelsons was announced as the BSO’s next music director, a position he takes up in the 2014-15 season, following a year as music director designate.

Today, the Boston Symphony Orchestra continues to fulfill and expand upon the vision of its founder Henry Lee Higginson, not only through its concert performances, educational offerings, and internet presence, but also through its expanding use of virtual and electronic media in a manner reflecting the BSO’s continuing awareness of today’s modern, ever-changing, 21st-century world.
