By Kevin Wells| Bachtrack@ Eun Sun Kim, Music Director of San Francisco Opera, made her Boston Symphony debut in scintillating fashion with late works by three composers – Lyadov, Bartók and Rachmaninov – spanning the first four decades of the 20th century. In the case of the latter two, the compositions were their last or next-to-last, and not among their most popular until fairly recently. Stravinsky once referred to Lyadov as a “pianissimo composer”.
By Kevin Wells| Bachtrack@ After last month’s Beethoven Festival, this week’s Boston Symphony program featured two composers who felt the shadow of his symphonies as a burden. Schubert never lived long enough to completely answer the question he reportedly asked himself in his teens, “Who can do anything after Beethoven?” Brahms was 43 years old before he finally formulated an answer and finished his First Symphony. This program also marked the return of Herbert Blomstedt to Symphony Hall.
