SOLTI NIGHT 2024
Georg Solti described himself as “First
and foremost a musician. . . at the service of
the composer whose music I am playing.” Solti
spent countless hours studying musical scores.
He approached each work with a fresh score, a
No. 2 pencil and a red crayon—making meticulous
markings to capture the intention of the composer.
Having completed the first pass, he would begin
again with a fresh score—this time seeking to
reveal the true heart of the piece. And then, a third
time, the whole process again, hunting for subtle
points he might have missed. Those scores are
now held in safe keeping at Harvard University
where students may explore the true genius of a
maestro at work.
Thanks to the dedication of our sponsors and
contributors, The Solti Foundation U.S. continues
to provide substantial support and increased
opportunities for young American conductors.
Tonight, we are honored to celebrate the legacy
of Sir Georg Solti and our 2024 awardees.
Thank you for your generosity and for your
presence here this evening.
