BSO/Classical New England — 2020/02/01

The BSO had scheduled a tour to the Far East. The coronavirus panic has scuttled thos plans, but they have no concerts scheduled in Symphony Hall until February 21, with the next Saturday concert on the 22nd. So WCRB is following their usual procedure of retransmitting past concerts. This evening — and again on Monday, Feb. 10 — it is a concert from last summer at Tanglewood, specifically the concert of August 2, 2019.

Here's WCRB's summary on their BSO page:

Saturday at 8pm in an encore broadcast from the 2019 Tanglewood season, the American violinist is the soloist in Dvorák’s folk-infused Violin Concerto, and Ken-David Masur leads the BSO in the Czech composer's Symphony No. 8.
Saturday, February 1, 2020
(encore broadcast Monday, February 10)
8:00 PM
Recorded August 2, 2019
Boston Symphony Orchestra
Ken-David Masur, conductor
Joshua Bell, violin
MARTINŮ Memorial to Lidice
DVOŘÁK Violin Concerto
DVOŘÁK Symphony No. 8

Of course Ken-David Masur conducts all three pieces, not just the concluding symphony.

I'm having trouble accessing prior posts, but I'm confident I posted about it back then, and you can find all the usual links for Tanglewood concerts there,

As always, you can listen to it on line or on air at WCRB.

Enjoy!
