CAMBRIDGE, Mass. – June 3, 2010 – Charles Ansbacher, conductor and founder of the Boston Landmarks Orchestra, and Larry Lucchino, president and CEO of the Boston Red Sox, announced today that the Boston Landmarks Orchestra plan to hold a special free admission concert at Fenway Park on Wednesday, July 7, 2010, at 7 p.m. in association with Mayor Thomas M. Menino and the City of Boston in honor of the orchestra’s 10th anniversary.
“This concert will be a home run for everyone in Greater Boston,” said Ansbacher. “We are so grateful to the Red Sox for giving us this special opportunity to perform in Fenway Park during our 10th anniversary year,” he continued.
Ansbacher founded the Boston Landmarks Orchestra in January of 2001 to perform free concerts in significant historical, geographical and architectural settings throughout the Greater Boston area. For the past ten years, the orchestra has helped foster a broad appreciation of classical music and Boston’s historic landmarks among diverse audiences throughout the city.
“We are proud to host the Boston Landmarks Orchestra for a free public concert at Fenway Park,” said Lucchino. “Charles Ansbacher’s vision of performing true musical classics with Greater Boston landmarks as backdrops is a wonderful and novel way to spread the joy of music while educating generations about our storied past. Fenway Park, with its historic traditions, is a most fitting venue for the orchestra, and we look forward to welcoming, on July 7, not only baseball fans but classical music aficionados everywhere to America’s Most Beloved Ballpark.”
