JAMIE ROSEN College Intern T he Israel Philharmonic Orchestra celebrates the 50th anniversary of its first tour of the United States with performances at four U.S. sum- mer festivals this month. The 110-member ensemble, under the musical direction of Zubin Mehta, opens the tour at the Ravinia Festival in Highland Park, Ill., before traveling to • Wolf Trap in Vienna, Va., Tanglewood in western Massachusetts and the Mann Center for the Performing Arts in Philadelphia. The first stop on the orchestra's tour is Ravinia on Aug. 22, where Pinchas Zukerman will be the soloist for Mozart's Violin Concerto No. 3. The concert also is a benefit for the orchestra, given by the American Friends of the Israel Philharmonic. Next, the musicians head to Wolf Trap for a performance on Aug. 23. Mehta and the orchestra will perform Beethoven's Symphony No. 1, Rimsky- Korsakov's Scheherezade and Strauss' Horn Concerto. For its third performance, the Israel Philharmonic will close the Tanglewood Music Festival season with concerts on Aug. 25-26, the highlights of 3-1/2 days of activities available to participants in the American Friends of the Israel Philharmonic Orchestra's Berkshire Weekend Celebration. The weekend, running Aug. 23-26, is organized to benefit the orchestra's Key-Note pro- b a ram ' its education and outreach department. The U.S. tour comes to a close Aug. 27 at the Mann Center. The concert, honoring Frederic R. Mann, founder of the Mann Center and founding president of the American Friends of the Israel Philharmonic Orchestra, is a benefit for the center. The Israel Philharmonic Orchestra was founded in 1936 by Polish violinist Bronislaw Huberman and was made up of first-chair musicians of German and Eastern European orchestras who had lost their jobs as a result of Nazism. In addition to its extensive travels, the orchestra also gives more than 150 per- formances each year in Israel. Through its Key-Note program, musicians from the orchestra work with students in Israel to enrich their cultural lives. - • Juicy Surf & Turf! ( Fri. & Sat.
