Famed Musician Koussevitzky Dies at 77
The renowned conductor Serge Koussevitzky died at age 77 after a period of poor health following a viral infection in Phoenix. He had planned a European tour as guest conductor and was collaborating with Boris Goldovsky on the opera Pique Dame before his removal to New England Medical Center. As Boston Symphony Orchestra conductor for 25 years, he shaped a historic era labeled by critics as matchless for string tone and virtuosity.
