Ferruccio Busoni, the Boston Symphony Orchestra, and the Impact of Anti-Germanismus around World War I
2020
Overview
On Mar 10-11, 2017, Symphony Hall in Boston MA resounded with the strains of Ferruccio Busoni's approximately seventy-minute-long Piano Concerto in C Major, BV 247 (1901-4), which the Boston Symphony Orchestra was performing for the first time. Conductor Sakari Oramo and pianist Kirill Gerstein performed impressively, and critics provided largely positive reviews of the piece. The belatedness of this performance of Busoni's piano concerto with the Boston Symphony Orchestra is striking, given Busoni's close connection with that institution. It was Karl Muck, conductor of the Boston Symphony Orchestra from 1912 to 1918, who directed the concerto's premiere in 1904 in Berlin Germany. Busoni (1866-1924) also appeared as soloist thirty-six times between 1891 and 1911, more than with any other major US orchestra during his lifetime. In addition, the Boston Symphony Orchestra performed more of his compositions during his lifetime than any other orchestral institution in the US.
