Edward Elgar

Yo-Yo Ma returns to the Boston Symphony’s summer home as the soloist in Elgar’s Cello Concerto, and Cristian Măcelaru conducts works by Debussy and Ensecu, as well as Anna Clyne’s “Masquerade.”

From Scarlatti to Elgar to Crumb, composers have found inspiration, and friendship, from their furry friends.

It doesn't take much to think back to your school days and remember how free you felt when summer was finally here. Classical music celebrates children's playtime.

Every spring, the faithful plodding of a familiar tune can be heard in commencement venues across the country, but its composer didn't always enjoy such a hallowed reputation.

We’re heading to the malls or going online to get the “perfect” gift for those we love. Classical composers gift a little differently.

If the only prayer you ever say in your entire life is “Thank You,” it will be enough. ~Meister Eckhart
