Boston Pops/Edgefest
June 28, 2007
OK - here is the official background story to all the random pictures I just posted.
Tonight I attended Edgefest, a series in which the Boston Pops perform with independent and alternative artists in an effort to draw a broader range of music enthusiasts to Symphony Hall.
The lineup included musical pieces from 25-year-old composer Nico Muhly and 34-year-old composer Felix Brenner - who paired with internationally acclaimed DJ Paul Oakenfold and 19-year-old Swede Andreas Brobjer on drums for a stunning latin-themed electronic piece with orchestral backup. Sounds over the top, but trust me, it was amazing.
After intermission, the Pops were joined by Hem (of Liberty Mutual fame). What a fantastic show.
