Artiste: Menahem Pressler

The first performance of the Boston Symphony’s final program for 2016 fell on St Cecilia's Day. The patron saint of music must have been pleased to see the past, the present and the future join hands in a program anchored by two warhorses of the Romantic repertory.

At age 92, Menahem Pressler presented a demanding recital at Symphony Center. Results were mixed, but his reverence to the music was incontrovertible.
