Koussevitzky @150 Recordings
A celebration of the 150th anniversary of legendary conductor Serge Koussevitzky's birth and the 100th anniversary of his appointment as music director of the Boston Symphony Orchestra. During his 25-year tenure at the BSO (1924-1949), Koussevitzky championed nearly every significant living composer and made peerless recordings of Tchaikovsky, Sibelius, Debussy, Prokofiev and many more. This series brings together the best of these recordings with the voices of those who knew Koussevitzky best from Leonard Bernstein to Aaron Copland to Nicholas Slonimsky. The series is produced by Tom Godell, a 50-year public radio veteran and founder of the Koussevitzky Recordings Society.
