* — I haven't purchased tickets for any of these yet, but they look worthwhile. I have "Flexpass" tickets available for plays and dates of my choosing. The dates selected are tentative.
I've included the url's for the public organizations so you can get more info about these performances, not just to satisfy your curiosity, but also so you can invite yourself to join me at one or another that might interest you. So if you live nearby or might be visiting Boston during the next seven months or so, let me know if something strikes your fancy.
Of course, my plans are subject to change, and I could well add a few things with other organizations (such as some operas), but that's how it looks at the moment.

Oh my! That's an impressive schedule.
I only have one concert in my plan this year: Marc-André Hamelin plays Lizst's 2nd with Kent Nagano at the Montreal Symphony next March.
Other than that, nothing much exept for some students' concerts at McGill or Université de Montréal. I guess I'v started to feel quite saturated and less motivated over the past few years.
I became a member of the Harvard Musical Association a couple of years after my father died. He had been a member for a few years. I had also thought that when I retired, I'd start going to symphony, like my mother. I had to take care of her for a few years, and when she died, I began to subscribe, first seven concerts, then 12, now 18 or 19, plus occasional add-ons. So it has grown.
Then a few years ago, I started getting ads from the theater companies, and some of the plays sounded worthwhile. So far, though, I'm more selective about them.
The Hamelin/Nagano/Lizst should be well worth hearing.
