My cruise prevented me from posting on November 18; my cancelled flight home and the fonsequent delay of one day kept me from saying anything on the 25th. I don't remember why I didn't put anything up last week, but finally I'm back and ready to go. Meanwhile, I hope you found the concerts without a push from me.
Now the Symphony is on hiatus while "Holiday Pops" graces Symphony Hall. We get an encore broadcast from last winter. Here's the blurb from WCRB:
Saturday, December 9th, 2023
8:00pmIn an encore broadcast, pianist Jean-Yves Thibaudet joins the Boston Symphony for Saint-Saëns’s virtuosic Egyptian Concerto, and Israeli conductor Lahav Shani leads the BSO in his Symphony Hall debut with Prokofiev’s Classical Symphony and Rachmaninoff’s dazzling Symphonic Dances.

Sergei RACHMANINOFF Symphonic DancesThis concert was originally broadcasted on February 18th, 2023 and is no longer available on demand.
Hear a preview of Saint-Saëns's Piano Concerto No. 5 with Jean-Yves Thibaudet with the audio player above, and read the transcript below:
INTERVIEW TRANSCRIPT:

(The past participle of broadcast is broadcast, not "broadcasted." What's the matter with kids these days?)
I posted about it back then, and I expect the links there to work now. It looks as if I neglected to post a link to the BSO's performance detail page.Here it is, with the usual links.
This should be enjoyable.
