The Festival Committee then invited Serge Koussevitzky and the Boston Symphony Orchestra to take part in the following year's concerts.The orchestra's Trustees accepted, and on August 13, 1936, the Boston Symphony Orchestra gave its first concerts in the Berkshires (at Holmwood, a former Vanderbilt estate, later the Center at Foxhollow).The series again consisted ofthree concerts and was given under a large tent, drawing a total of nearly 15,000 people. In the winter of1936 Mrs. Gorham Brooks and Miss MaryAspinwallTappan offered Tanglewood, theTappan family estate, with its buildings and 210 acres oflawns and mead- ows, as a gift to Koussevitzky and the orchestra.The offer was gratefully accepted, and on August 5, 1937, the festival's largest crowd to that time assembled under a tent for the first Tanglewood concert, an all-Beethoven program. At the all-Wagner concert that opened the 1937 festival's second weekend, rain and thunder twice interrupted the Rienzi Overture and necessitated the omission altogether of the "Forest Murmurs" from Siegfried, music too delicate to be heard through the downpour. At the intermission, Miss Gertrude Robinson Smith, one ofthe festival's founders, made an appeal to raise funds for the building ofa permanent structure.The appeal was broadened by means ofa printed circular handed out at the two remaining concerts, and within a short time enough money had been raised to begin active planning for a "music pavilion." Eliel Saarinen, the eminent architect selected by Koussevitzky, proposed an elaborate design thatwent far beyond the immediate needs ofthe festival and, more important, went well beyond the budget of$100,000. His second, simplified plans were still too expensive; he finallywrote that ifthe Trustees insisted on remaining within their budget, theywould have "just a shed," "which any builder could accomplish without the aid ofan architect."The Afterthestorm ofAugust12, 1937, whichprecipitatedafundraisingdriveforthe construction ofthe TanglewoodShed mmm Trustees then turned to Stockbridge engineerJoseph Franz to make further simplifications in Saarinen's plans in order to lower the cost.The building he erected was inaugurated on the evening ofAugust 4, 1938, when the first concert ofthatyear's festival was given, and re- mains, with modifications, to this day. It has echoed with the music ofthe Boston Sym- phony Orchestra every summer since, except for the war years 1942-45, and has become almost a place ofpilgrimage to millions ofconcertgoers. In 1959, as the result ofa collabo- ration between the acoustical consultant Bolt Beranek and Newman and architect Eero Saarinen and Associates, the installation ofthe then-unique Edmund HawesTalbot Or- chestra Canopy, along with other improvements, produced the Shed's present world-famous acoustics. In 1988, on the occasion ofits fiftieth anniversary, the Shed was rededicated as "The Serge KoussevitzkyMusic Shed," recognizing the far-reachingvision ofthe BSO's legendary music director. In 1940, the Berkshire Music Center (now theTanglewood Music Center) began its operations. By 1941 the Theatre-Concert Hall, the Chamber Music Hall, and several small studios were finished, and the festival had so expanded its activities and its reputation for excellence that it attracted nearly 100,000 visitors. With the Boston Symphony Orchestra's acquisition in 1986 ofthe Highwood estate adjacent to Tanglewood, the stage was set for the expansion ofTanglewood's public grounds A by some 40%. master plan developed by the Cambridge firm ofCarr, Lynch, Hack and Sandell to unite the Tanglewood and Highwood properties confirmed the feasibility of using the newly acquired property as the site for a new concert hall to replace the outmod- edTheatre-Concert Hall (which was used continuously with only minor modifications since 1941, and which with some modification has been used in recent years for theTangle- wood Music Center's opera productions), and for improvedTanglewood Music Center — facilities. Inaugurated onJuly 7, 1994, Seiji Ozawa Hall designed by the architectural firm William Rawn Associates ofBoston in collaboration with acoustician R. Lawrence Kirke- & gaard Associates ofDowner's Grove, Illinois, and representing the first new concert facil- — ity to be constructed atTanglewood in more than a half-century now provides a modern A "Special Focus"ExhibitattheTanglewoodVisitorCenter: Remembering Serge Koussevitzkyon the 50thAnniversaryofhis Death Perhaps no figure in the history ofthe Boston Symphony Orchestra has had as far-reaching an impact as the Russian-born Serge Koussevitzky (1874-1951),who served as the BSO's music director for twenty-five years, from 1924 to 1949. Dr. Koussevitzky died on June 4, 1951, at seventy-seven. During his tenure, the BSO gave an unprecedented number ofAmerican andworld premieres; under- — took a commissioning program in 1930, to markthe orchestra's — fiftieth anniversary that has served as a model for BSO commis- sioning programs that continue to this day; tookup permanent summer residencyin the Berkshires, in 1936; and founded the Tanglewood Music Center, in 1940.To mark the 50th anniversary ofKoussevitzky's death and to recognize Koussevitzky's enormous legacy, the BSO Archives has mounted a special focus exhibit in the Tanglewood Visitor Center featuring photographs ofthe legendary conductor. Shown here is a rare photograph ofSerge Koussevitzky (photograph by Krig Sahl, Octo- ber 1938, courtesyTrustees ofthe Boston Public Library, Laning Humphrey Collection). The photographs on display in the Visitor Centerwere assembled from avarietyofsources, including the BSO Archives; the private collection ofErika Stone, Photographer; the Lan- ing Humphrey Collection in the Boston Public Library; and the HeinzW.Weissenstein Collection,Whitestone Photographs, Lenox, MA.
