Boston Landmarks Orchestra

Great Music for FREE !
The Boston Landmarks Orchestra performs great music for FREE in wonderful places.  Privately funded, its home is the DCR's Hatch Shell where it performs on Wednesday evenings in the summer.  The Orchestra also presents family and children's concerts in area neighborhoods.

Our Wednesday evening day trip began aboard the Quincy to Boston 5:20 ferry.  A warm summer evening ahead.
Boston Harbor was as active as ever. Sailboats and pleasure crafts filled the inner harbor.
We arrived on time to enjoy our 'dinner picnic' under the stars while listening to the evenings program of great music.
