Zubin Mehta and the IPO. 50 Years Together
It all began in 1961. Renowned conductor Eugene Ormandy
cancelled his performances with the IPO at short notice due to
illness. And then, as in many fairytales in the world of music and
theatre, a 25-year-old Indian conductor came to the rescue. This
was the beginning of a long and creative love story between the
IPO and Maestro Zubin Mehta, and this coming season we will be
celebrating 50 years together.
The first concert conducted by Zubin Mehta on 23 May 1961,
featured Kodaly's Dances of Galanta, Stravinsky's Symphony in
Three Movements and Dvorak's Symphony no. 7.
During these 50 years Maestro Mehta proved to be not only one of
the major and most sought after conductors of the world, in concert
halls as well as opera houses, but a great friend of the orchestra and
the State of Israel. For this he was given, among others, a special
recognition by the Israel Prize committee in 1991; awarded the Wolf
Foundation Prize for Music in 1995-6, and he has received Honorary
Citizenship of Tel Aviv-Yafo.
The IPO appointed Mr. Mehta Music Advisor in 1969 and Music
Director for Life in 1981. As we said, a 50-year long love affair.
A good reason to celebrate!

Commemorating the Centennial of Gustav Mahler's Death
7 July 1860 – 18 May 1911
In 2011, the music world commemorates the centennial of the death
of one of the major musicians active at the end of the nineteenth
century and the beginning of the twentieth century – Gustav
Mahler.
The Austrian composer, who was born in 1860 to a Jewish family,
became famous first as a great conductor, a profession he pursued
to his last day at the age of 50. He carried out his work during the
transition period between late Romanticism and the Modern era.
Conductor Leonard Bernstein said: "Ours is a century of death and
Mahler is its prophet".
Mahler acquired his reputation as a great composer mainly due to
his symphonies. No one had dared to write such large-scale, complex
and extraordinary works. Mahler's works are frequently performed
by the Israel Philharmonic, which is considered a "Mahlerian"
orchestra. The coming season features a selection of his work.
