Program Notes

Most Americans are quite familiar with the music of world-renowned composer John Williams, whose lush, melodic, exciting movie soundtracks have made him one of the most recognizable names in music. A little known fact about Williams is that prior to conquering Hollywood, he was known as Airman First Class John Williams, a staff arranger at March Air Force Base in Moreno Valley, Calif. from 1952 to 1955. Williams, who grew up loving the Red Sox and adoring Fenway Park, wrote Fanfare for Fenway for the 100th anniversary celebration of the ballpark. The debut performance was given on April 20, 2012, by the Boston Pops brass at Fenway Park.
