BSO/Classical New England — 2018/05/19

This week's encore broadcast is the concert of September 30, 2017. It consists of Piano Concerto No. 4 by Beethoven and Symphony No. 11 by Shostakovich. My post at the time had links to the orchestra's program detail page, as well as to reviews in the local publications. Neither of them had any serious complaints. I recommend listening this evening at 8:00 EDST via WCRB on line or on air. They also offer a link to an interview with Paul Lewis, the pianist, and Andris Nelsons, the conductor. They also have links to additional information about their other programming (including a performance of "HMS Pinafore" on Sunday). The BSO performance detail page, accessible via my post, also gives background material as usual.

It appears from WCRB's program schedule that they are not giving the repeat on a later Monday, as they do after the original broadcast.
