Today's concert is being conducted by Paul Pillar a conductor and musical director of the

orchestra from one thousand fifty two to one thousand sixty two and now conductor emeritus from the home of the Detroit orchestra in the Henry an Edsel Ford Auditorium in Detroit's Civic Center Tchaikovsky's Fourth Symphony and Beethoven's Eroica symphony to share a comparable place in the output of their creators. Each was written at a time of dire personal crisis in the life of its composer and each marked an enormous artistic advance over the artist's previous output. It was in the spring of 1877 when Tchaikovsky began the fourth symphony at a time when he was fighting off a severe attack of mental depression. The summer and early fall of this year were almost disastrous for the composer and ended in his nervous collapse. Only the care of his brother Anatole the friendship of Nicholas Rubenstein and the wonderful generosity of not just one Mac made a full recovery possible. But it was not until the early part of the next year 1878 that the Fourth Symphony was completed

together with the opera Eugene and Yangon began about the same time as the symphony. Soon thereafter the violin concerto was emerging from his pen. The composer himself wrote a detailed philosophical analysis of the program of the Fourth Symphony for not just one mic. Very briefly the four movements are described thus in the introduction is the German the leading idea of the whole work. This is fate that inevitable force. In the second movement expresses the melancholy which steals over us when it evening we sit indoors alone weary of work. Third movement. No definite feelings find expression on a capricious arabesque CE intangible forms. And the fourth movement a rustic quality as depicted. But Fate reminds us once more of its presence. Happiness does exist a simple and unspoiled. And this makes life possible. Thus wrote Tchaikovsky about his fourth symphony. From its home in the beautiful Henry and its report of a Tory and we now hear of the Detroit Symphony Orchestra conducted
