Highlights of Tanglewood 2024, just announced, include Gustavo Dudamel with the National Children’s Symphony of Venezuela, his first visit since 2006. Dudamel has also made some sort of peace with the Venezuelan regime, though he is not flying its Sistema flag.

Some may see in his return the hand of Chad Smith, his former ally at the LA Phil, now running the BSO.

There are also BSO conducting debuts for Dalia Stasevska, Sami Tachid and Ryan Bancroft.

Andris Nelsons tops the Tanglewood bill with ten programmes and two masterclasses.
