The Boston Landmarks Orchestra presents exceptional orchestral music performances in significant architectural, historical and geographical settings throughout the Boston area, always free to the public. We aim to help our diverse audiences grow in their appreciation both of the fine music that we offer and the special places where we perform. Founded in 2001 by Conductor Charles Ansbacher, the Boston Landmarks Orchestra is one of only a few professional orchestras in the country whose mission is to perform all free concerts. Almost half a million people have attended performances during the decade. In 2007, the DCR'S Hatch Shell became the orchestra's home, and audiences have expanded exponentially. Boston is known as a center for music in this country, and the Boston Landmarks Orchestra is able to draw upon some of the area's finest musicians to create a vibrant and exciting classical music scene all summer long!
