Programme for "The Boring Music Society's" first concert in November 1927. As may be seen, the name was quickly changed to the more boring title of "The Classical Music Society".
The Society was meant to be an exclusive gathering of "the boring people", who wanted to acquaint themselves with
Romantic and Late Romantic music. Three concerts were held in 1927/28, in which Langgaard presented works by
Beethoven, Schumann, Wagner, Liszt, Max Bruch and Bruckner - as well as his own 1st Symphony. After
this the Society folded up, and Langgaard was left with debts he had difficulty in paying. |
