Boston Symphony Orchestra 2010-11 Season Announced, with Program Listing
The 2010-11 season of the Boston Symphony Orchestra will be so diverse, that I have decided simply to offer the material issued by the orchestra, which does an excellent job of covering the many diverse directions in which BSO programming is developing. As in the past, new music will be served as well as the classics. Even the much-fêted Thomas Adès will make an appearance, conducting his own music. He is not the only newcomer who will appear. The distinguished Japanese Bach specialist Maasaki Suzuki will make his BSO debut with the St. John Passion, as will Sakari Oramo from Finland, the American John Nelson, and the BSO’s new Assistant Conductor, Marcelo Lehninger. Sir Mark Elder’s return will be especially welcome, as will the regulars, Rafael Frühbeck de Burgos, Christoph von Dohnányi, and Charles Dutoit.
Music Director James Levine will revisit Bartók’s Bluebeard’s Castle,
