Boston Philharmonic Orchestra 2024-25 Opening Concert

Boston Philharmonic Orchestra
Benjamin Zander, conductor
Alexander Baillie, cello
Radcliffe Choral Society

Purcell (arr. Britten): Chacony in G Minor
Elgar: Cello Concerto
Holst: The Planets


Boston Philharmonic 2024-25 Season event 2

The Boston Philharmonic Orchestra's second concert of the 2024-25 season features an all-British program, a nod to Conductor Benjamin Zander's native England and his personal connections to the composers (he studied with both Benjamin Britten and Imogen Holst, Gustav’s daughter).

For the first time ever, the Orchestra performs Benjamin Britten's exquisite realization of Purcell’s Chacony in G Minor, which pays homage to the Baroque master while infusing it with modern sensibilities.

Acclaimed British cellist Alexander Baillie, who has performed with the Orchestra eight times previously over the course of 30 years, performs next on Elgar's Cello Concerto, a poignant exploration of loss and longing.

The concert culminates in Holst's popular The Planets (which heavily influenced the music of John Williams) featuring the Radcliffe Choral Society, a woman’s chorus that will sound as if it is singing from the farthest reaches of the solar system.

Next is Dvořák's Symphony No. 9, “For a New World”—his tribute to America—which reflects his visits to the American Heartland, his love of American spirituals, and his homesickness for his beloved Bohemia. It concludes with Stravinsky's revolutionary Rite of Spring, a landmark work that challenges and captivates, reflecting the raw power of nature and human emotion.
