A Tour of Tanglewood - By BSO Social Media Manager Matt Heck *

Музыка

One of the most popular and acclaimed music festivals in the world, Tanglewood-the Boston Symphony Orchestra's summer home since 1937-is located in the beautiful Berkshire Hills between Lenox and Stockbridge, MA. With an average annual attendance of more than 300,000 visitors each season, Tanglewood has a $60 million impact on the Berkshire economy each summer. Tanglewood presents orchestra concerts by the Boston Symphony, Boston Pops, and visiting ensembles, featuring many of the greatest classical musicians of our time; recital and chamber music concerts in the intimate setting of Ozawa Hall; programs highlighting the young musicians of the Tanglewood Music Center; and performances by some of today's leading popular artists. New this year-$20 tickets for attendees under 40-will be available for BSO and Boston Pops performances in the Shed. Tanglewood is family-friendly, with free lawn tickets available for children and young people age 17 and under, a 50% discount on Friday-evening lawn tickets for college and graduate students, and a variety of special programs for children, including Kids' Corner, Watch and Play, and the annual Family Concert, this year to take place on August 24. Tanglewood is also the home of the Tanglewood Music Center, the BSO's preeminent summer music academy for the advanced training of young professional musicians, and Days in the Arts, a multi-cultural arts-immersion program that gives 400 fifth-, sixth-, and seventh-graders from communities across Massachusetts the opportunity to explore the arts throughout each week-long session of the summer. These are just two of the BSO's many educational and outreach activities, for which more information is available at www.bso.org-the largest and most visited orchestral website in the country, receiving about 7 million visitors annually and generating over $75 million in revenue since its launch in 1996. The Boston Symphony Orchestra is online at www.bso.org. Music lovers can follow the BSO on Facebook at bostonsymphony or on Twitter at bostonsymphony.

    Lovely seeing this. A big nostalgia trip for this very lucky Brit. I was there in 1988, on the Composition program….so many happy memories, above all making dinner for and hanging with Lennie Bernstein. But it was VERY hot and humid!

    Great video with lots of information - some of which I didn't know. Can't wait to share it with my students this year and encourage them to make the short drive from Pittsfield to hear music by composers we have studied!

    You at Tanglewood have a lot to thank the Russian emigre Serge Kussevitisky for your exsistance. Not only did he turn the BSO into one of the best is the world. He brought the likes of Bernstein, Copland, Barber and world class musicians and performers to Tanglewood. He was a remarkable musician and conductor born in Russia in 1876. A close friend of the great composers, Rachmaninoff, Debussy, Malher and Janeck.
