A live video transmission on Boston Common of the BSO’s July 19 concert at Tanglewood


Friday, July 19, 8PM


The Boston Symphony Orchestra presents its annual “Tanglewood In the City: Boston” event on the Boston Common. Now in its fourth year, the Boston event, which drew several thousand audience members in 2018, will be hosted by Bloomberg anchor/reporter Janet Wu.


The events feature a live video transmission on a 15x27-foot screen of the BSO’s evening performance from its summer home in Lenox, Massachusetts, and will begin with welcoming comments about the program from BSO Assistant Principal Violist, Cathy Basrak. The performance features BSO Music Director Andris Nelsons leading the orchestra in music of Betsy Jolas, Debussy, and Ravel, as well as Saint-Saëns’s Cello Concerto No. 1 with soloist Gautier Capuçon.


We invite you to arrive early for pre-concert activities more details below!
