Rafael Frühbeck de Burgos opens his second BSO program of the season with the rarely heard Haydn symphony designated as "No. 1," written about 1757. This ten-minute, three-movement work comes very early in the history of the symphony genre. By contrast, Haydn's Military Symphony dates from the zenith of the Classical symphony. Extended excerpts from Wagner's humane masterpiece Die Meistersinger von Nürnberg— with bass-baritone James Morris in the role of Hans Sachs, and also featuring the Tanglewood Festival Chorus—make up the second half of the program.
