JULY 27 WEDNESDAY8pm, Ozawa HallChanticleerOver the MoonThe moon—the symbol in song, story, poetry, and legend of powerful and mysterious energy, which determines and regulates so much of life on our planet. Since time began, and since music began to be written, reflections on the influence of the moon in human life have been a favorite subject, not yet exhausted. In Chanticleer’s lunar-inspired program, magnificent early statements by Monteverdi, di Lasso, des Prez, and Parsons give way to the more romantic yearnings of Elgar and Mahler. Equally fascinated are contemporary composers such as the Finn Jakko Mäntyjärvi, and Americans Stephen Paulus and Mason Bates, whose compositions for Chanticleer are audience favorites. Popular music is no stranger to the subject. Over the Moon will include treatments of jazz standards by Mancini and Bart Howard, and more recent songs by Elbow and others.

With its artistic director Yo-Yo Ma, the Silk Road Ensemble returns to Tanglewood for another fascinating and wide-ranging traversal of music both traditional and new, suggesting a modern-day equivalent to the sort of cultural exchange that characterized the old trade routes in centuries long gone.
