Symphony Hall

The Boston Philharmonic Youth Orchestra (BPYO), composed of musicians age 12-21 from the East Coast, performs their final concert of the 2023-24 season under the baton of Founder and Conductor Benjamin Zander. The program opens with Robert Schumann’s Cello Concerto followed by Gustav Mahler’s monumental Symphony No. 5, which will also be performed during the BPYO’s five-city European tour from June 15-25. The concert can be experienced both in-person and via livestream.
Schumann's soul-stirring Cello Concerto features the virtuosic talents of cellist Zlatomir Fung, the youngest cellist ever to win First Prize at the International Tchaikovsky Competition. As Artist-in-Residence with the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra in the 2023-24 season, Fung has appeared at London’s Cadogan Hall and is touring the UK with the orchestra. The 25-year-old has been hailed as one of the most promising young cellists of his generation: in describing his recital debut at Carnegie Hall in 2021, Bachtrack wrote "[He is] one of those rare musicians with a Midas touch: he quickly envelopes every score he plays in an almost palpable golden aura.” He last appeared with the BPYO in concert in 2022 as soloist on Elgar’s Cello Concerto and toured with the BPYO to Greece in June that year. The Westborough, MA native is a graduate of The Julliard School where he is also currently a faculty member.
Along with Dvořák’s and Elgar’s Cello Concertos, the Schumann is one of the great Romantic works for cello. “Schumann’s Cello Concerto requires an interpreter of the highest order,” says Zander. “Its moods are intimate, soulful, and confessional, almost like chamber music, and its three connected movements are like one long-drawn breath of lyricism that virtually cries out for Zlatomir’s subtlety and communicative power.”
Zander’s profound connection to Mahler's music has earned him significant recognition, including the very first Titan Award from the Mahler Society of New York. His passion for Mahler's compositions infuses every note with a profound sense of meaning and emotion.
Tickets are $75, $45, $20, and $10 for students with code STU-DIS. The live stream is $20 ($10 for students). Live and streaming subscription packages are also available.

Keys Community Room, Milton Public Library, 476 Canton Avenue, Milton, MA 02186 

In honor of Holocaust Memorial Day on May 6th, The Milton Public Library, in partnership with Congregation Beth Shalom of the Blue Hills, will present: 'Light Beyond the Shadows: The Legacy of Czech Torah Scrolls Recovered after the Shoah" by renowned photographer Shelia Pallay. This talk and slide presentation will be held in our Keys Community Room on Monday, 5/6, at 7 PM. The talk is of special interest because in 1987 the synagogue received one Czech Torah Scroll from the Memorial Scrolls Trust in London, England as a permanent loan. This severely damaged Torah is displayed in the sanctuary Ark as an ongoing reminder of the communities in Europe that were destroyed in the Shoah. More information about the synagogue's Torah may be found here - <a data-cke-saved-href="https://www.bethshalombluehills.org/spiritual-life/ritual-art-items/#holocausttorah" href="https://www.bethshalombluehills.org/spiritual-life/ritual-art-items/#holocausttorah" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">https://www.bethshalombluehills.org/spiritual-life/ritual-art-items/#holocausttorah</a>. There is no advance registration required to attend. We hope you might join us for an interesting talk this evening!

Join us this evening for a one-hour gentle fluid yoga class with instructor Sheila Armstrong starting at 7 PM in the Keys Community Room. We will practice asanas (yoga poses) and breathing techniques to come into the present moment, and create more space in our minds and bodies. Please dress comfortably and bring a yoga mat and a water bottle, and anything else that might make you more comfortable during class - a towel or blanket, blocks (if you have them), or a strap. Masks are optional and this program is suitable for ages 13 and up.
Sheila lives in Milton and is a 200-hour registered yoga instructor and a certified Reiki healer. Her love of yoga started in the late 1990s when she was looking for a way to get grounded after finishing college and starting a new job as a middle school teacher. She believes that anyone can benefit from the calm and presence gained while practicing yoga, and hopes to help people take these benefits with them into their lives off the mat as well.
You must register in advance to attend so please sign up&nbsp;here:&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href="https://tinyurl.com/42c9nkbf" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">https://tinyurl.com/42c9nkbf</a>&nbsp;and one reminder Email will be sent to you a day or so before the class. Registration opens on April 18th.

Historian Bob Begin will return to the Milton Public Library&nbsp;on Tuesday, 5/14, at 7 PM, in the Keys Community Room to give another interesting presentation about naval history.
 This one is called: “The U.S.S. Bunker Hill, Kamikazes &amp; Sacrifices in May 1945” and the focus of this talk is on a story of the actions of Bob’s relative, Lt. J.G. Alexander Domonkos. He was a pilot on board the day the Bunker Hill was hit by 2 Kamikazes within 10 seconds on May 11, 1945 off the coast of Okininawa. Uncle Al survived the attack and aided in caring for the wounded and dying. There were horrific sacrifices and countless acts of bravery. He was a highly decorated pilot and following the war, he went to Yale College of Art which led to a successful art career, and Bob will be showing us paintings, sketches, and letters from his uncle, plus diary excerpts. Come listen to this riveting story and see some incredible images to illustrate it!
 You do not have to register to hear this fascinating true story - just come and please bring your history fan friends with you!&nbsp; This program is kindly sponsored by the Friends of the Milton Public Library and is free and open to all.&nbsp; Please join us for a very interesting tale this evening!
