The inaugural concert by the new General Music Director, Levente Török, evokes the magic of beginnings: In “The Wand of Youth,” Edward Elgar looks back 40 years and dresses melodies he had already sketched as a teenager in a magnificent orchestral garb. In his *Partita*, John Rutter erects a musical monument to the heroes of his youth—Maurice Ravel, William Walton, and George Gershwin. Lili Boulanger, meanwhile, was only 24 years old when she wrote her last orchestral work, *D’un matin de printemps*. Although she was already seriously ill, this short orchestral piece evokes the carefree atmosphere of a spring morning. Finally, Maurice Ravel’s ballet “Daphnis et Chloé” opens with a morning sunrise and captivates with its seemingly inexhaustible impressionistic palette of colors.
