    The Boston P.

    Join us at Symphony Hall for an evening of stirring music with the talented Boston Philharmonic Youth Orchestra. The BPYO will start the program with Ives' Three Places in New England. At the center of the program is Debussy's beloved, La Mer. Debussy's score is the iconic French orchestral masterpiece of the twentieth century, ever fresh, beloved, endlessly imitated by other composers. It is the ultimate orchestra seascape, quintessentially French and as salty as they come.

    The program concludes with Mahler’s First Symphony. It is arguably the most original first symphony ever composed, from its magical evocation of dawn at the opening to the thrilling climax of its vast Finale. This symphony—teeming with quotations from his first song cycle, the Songs of a Wayfarer—tells the story of his youthful hero's absorption with nature, his adventures, trials, and ultimate triumph.
