Boston Pops 125th Anniversary Concert With Special Guest Kenny Loggins September 4, 2010

The Boston Pops, featuring Keith Lockhart and the orchestra, will continue the celebration of its 125th anniversary season by performing at McCoy Stadium, home of the Pawtucket Red Sox in Pawtucket, RI on Saturday, September 4 at 7:30 pm. The Pops will be joined by singer/songwriter Kenny Loggins. This concert is Loggins’ only New England area performance this year.
Though members of the Boston Pops have been featured in performances at many of the country’s leading sporting events, including those of the Red Sox, Patriots, and Celtics, the concert at McCoy Stadium marks the first time the full orchestra complement has ever performed in a baseball stadium and the first time they have performed an outdoor concert in the Providence area.

Portions of the proceeds from tickets sales will benefit Hasbro’s Children’s Hospital. The Boston Pops concert at McCoy Stadium is the marquee event of the Pawtucket Arts Festival, August 27-September 26.
“I can’t think of a better marriage between the worlds of music and sports than that between America’s Orchestra and America’s favorite pastime,” said Boston Pops Conductor Keith Lockhart. “

Tickets for this Boston Pops 125th anniversary performance with Kenny Loggins are on sale now at the PawSox Box Office, by phone at 401-724-7300, or by visiting www.pawsox.com.
