Boston Conservatory Wind Ensemble: America at 250
An outdoor concert at Faneuil Hall for the Revolution's 250th anniversary, opening with William Schuman's 1956 variations on 'Chester' — the marching song of the Revolution, written by the Boston composer William Billings — and continuing through works by four American composers on history, place and memory. The ensemble plays at the seat of the history it is marking.
