Boston Public Library's Pierce Performance Series: Koussevitzky’s Legacy

In celebration of the 150th anniversary of the legendary conductor’s birth, the BSO and the Associates of the BPL present a conversation about Serge Koussevitzky’s influence on the orchestra’s sound and the artistic trajectory of contemporary American symphonic music. The discussion, hosted by frequent BSO program annotator Harlow Robinson and PRX radio host Tom Godell, will also feature a performance of the final movement of Benjamin Britten’s String Quartet No. 2 in C, Op. 36, with members of the Boston Symphony Orchestra. This event is free with a reservation.
