The Saturday evening concert, with Charles Munch conducting the Boston Symphony Orchestra, will include Handel's Water Music Suite, Ravel's Daphnis and Chloe, Saint-Saens' Symphony No. 3, and Bartok's Music for Strings and Percussion.

Sunday afternoon Eleazar de Carvalho will be guest conductor in a program featuring Jorge Bolet as soloist in Prokofieff's Piano Concerto No. 2, and Guarnieri's Second Symphony and Moussorgsky's Pictures at an Exhibition, with orchestration by Ravel.
