Take Me Out to the Ballpa... Symphony

06/22/2010
.
Will Bostonians soon be signing, "Take Me Out to the Ballpa... Symphony." On July 7, 2010 Fenway Park will be seeing a different kind of lineup starring Beethoven, Bernstein, Anderson, and Copland. The Boston Landmarks Orchestra, Boston Red Sox, and the City of Boston have finalized event details for the Orchestra's "Home Run" concert.

The Boston Landmarks Orchestra, Charles Ansbacher, conductor, has selected an all-star repertoire that ranges from the classics to a fitting celebration of Jackie Robinson to start its 2010 season with a grand slam. Highlights of this two hour concert with intermission include Aaron Copland's "Fanfare for the Common Man," Beethoven's "Ode to Joy" with the New World Chorale, Holly Krafka, director, Julian Wachner's rendition of "The Jackie Robinson Story," and selections of songs from Leonard Bernstein's "West Side Story".

"This is an historic partnership between the Red Sox and the Boston Landmarks Orchestra where the Orchestra's mission of playing free orchestral music in significant settings could never be more suitable. We want to thank Mayor Menino and all the City agencies for their help in making this possible," said Maestro Charles Ansbacher, the founder and conductor of the Orchestra.

This historic concert will take place on Wednesday, July 7, 2010 at 7 p.m. Tickets are required for admission and will be available in advance only. No tickets will be available the day of the concert. Tickets can be downloaded at no cost from www.redsox.com/familyfun, and can also be picked up for free at the Red Sox Main Ticket Office, Monday through Friday from 9 a.m. – 5 p.m., through July 6, 2010. Tickets are limited to four per person.

The concert entrance will be through Fenway Park Gate B and it will open at 6 p.m., approximately one hour before the concert is scheduled to commence. Food and beverage will be available for purchase at the concession stands.

The Boston Orchestra's Landmarks Festival at the Shell will open on July 14th at 7 p.m. at the DCR's Hatch Shell on the Esplanade and will continue every Wednesday night through September. The theme of this season's concerts, all of which are free, is a celebration of Beethoven.
