Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: THE LIFE of Serge Koussevitzky reads like a modern fairy tale. Horatio Alger could not have fabricated a more glamorous tale than this real life-story of the poor, humbly-born lad. From a small town in darkest Tsarist Russia, he worked his way through a conservatory in Moscow, acquired tremendous proficiency on the double-bass, then met and wedded his fairy princess, who opened the door to a new career—conducting. Koussevitzky became a celebrated conductor in Russia, founding his own orchestra, not only giving concerts in Moscow and St. Petersburg, but also making three fabulous tours up and down the Volga, bringing the finest symphonic music to thousands who had never heard it. He persisted with his mission through the dark days of World War I, and the bitter early years of the Russian Revolution, before leaving Russia to become a glamorous figure in the concert halls of Paris and other western European capitals.

Download or read book Sergei Koussevitzky and His Epoch written by Arthur Lourie and published by Read Books Ltd. This book was released on 2013-05-31 with total page 169 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Arthur-Vincent Lourié was a significant Russian composer. Lourié played an important role in the earliest stages of the organization of Soviet music after the 1917 Revolution but later went into exile. His music reflects his close connections with contemporary writers and artists, and also his close relationship with Igor Stravinsky. Lourié gives a biographical sketch of Sergei Koussevitzky, with a chronicle of the musical life of his time as its setting, solely because the fifteen years during which they knew each other bound them together with the combined memories of so many important events, experienced simultaneously, though perhaps in a different way, and for ever unforgettable. From the author; 'What I have written is not a criticism nor a jubilee offering, but only, as I understand it, the objective testimony of one musician concerning another; the testimony of a friend and contemporary in regard to a period in which we met on a common path and in which we took an active part, each according to his abilities.'

Book excerpt: "Each week during the concert season, the PBS series Evening at Symphony, produced by WGBH TV Boston, brings the music of a great symphony orchestra to thousands of homes across the country. The Boston Symphony Orchestra, which performs these programs, epitomizes the fascination and the achievement of a remarkable musical institution. Since its inception in 1881 under the auspices of Major Henry Lee Higginson, the orchestra has reached out through recordings and television to an ever-growing national and international audience. The artistic aim remains what it has always been--the making of music. All symphony orchestras represent both a cultural investment and big business. Typically, more than 100 people play in the Orchestra year-round and their activities cover a wide spectrum of musical events--regular program series in Symphony Hall, the springtime Pops and summer Tanglewood concerts, concert tours, recording sessions, special chamber music concerts, and the filming and producing of Evening at Symphony. This handsomely illustrated volume takes the reader backstage at the BSO to discover for himself the history of the institution, the famous conductors, the musicians, the interaction of audience and performers, the special lore of this highly gifted group of people--in short, all the elements that are essential to the life of a major performing orchestra." --Dust jacket flap.
