LineUp

Formed in 1881 by Henry Lee Higginson, the Boston Symphony Orchestra is a prominent U.S. ensemble known for acclaimed recordings, its Boston Pops offshoot, and historic leadership by renowned conductors including Serge Koussevitzky, Charles Munch, and Andris Nelsons.
Johannes Brahms, born in Hamburg, Germany, was a pivotal Romantic era composer. He masterfully blended classical forms with rich harmonies and lyrical melodies in his symphonies, concertos, and chamber music. Celebrated for works like "Hungarian Dances" and his "Lullaby," he is considered one of classical music's "Three Bs" alongside Bach and Beethoven, leaving an enduring legacy.
Born in Massachusetts and raised in Sweden and Finland, conductor Herbert Blomstedt is renowned for Romantic and early 20th-century works, especially Scandinavian composers. A prizewinner and longtime director of major orchestras in Europe and the U.S., he’s recorded 125+ albums, noted for Brahms, Nielsen, Bruckner, and Berwald.
