Totally on!! Great show. Great music. Crowd went crazy. Timeless lyrics. Brilliant bill with Emmylou Harris.
This was our first visit to Tanglewood and Ozawa Hall. The site and the venue are amazing. We came specifically for this event but we will be back. When one sees an opportunity to see and hear Benny Bennack III share the stage with Bria Skonberg, Jon Faddis and Randy Brecker under the musical supervision of the great pianist/composer/arranger Ted Rosenthal, the only appropriate thought is "How can I be there". We took a red eye from Seattle to Boston the day before and flew home the day after. Was it worth the time, effort and money? We were rewarded with one of the finest concert experiences of my life. Ozawa Hall as a venue is note just a spectacular setting, but one of the best sounding rooms for a convert you could possibly imagine. I will see each of these giants perform again in the near future -- already seeing Brecker at end of month at Seattle's Jazz Alley and Benny Bennack III at Vic's in October and Birdland in November. But as stated earlier, seeing and hearing them share stage was a once in a lifetime experience. Two highlight for me were Benny's counter punctual solos to Jon's pyrotechnics (When you go high, I go low) and Bria and Benny doing In A Mellow Tone.
Amazing! The show was a fun mix of hits, new music, & comedy!! All 3 bands were so awesome!!!
It was good but somewhat boring. A lot of new music that did not have the fun vibe.
This show was absolutely awesome. He is extremely talented and engaging. We had fantastic seats. When he went through the venue, I came face to face with him. I was thrilled. I highly recommend seeing him if you can.
Great venue the merch was a little overpriced and the concert was shorter than expected but the performance from the orchestra and headliner was more than worth the price of admission. Getting into the parking area was okay but leaving became a real challenge. The hill from the parking area to the security area is also extremely steep and could be a problem if winter concerts were available. But all things considered was a great time and I’ll definitely be seeing more shows at the Tanglewood.
A really remarkable person with an incredible voice. So much fun!
Tanglewood is the best venue to experience live music. Beck was great with the Boston pops.
Fabulous night with the Boston symphony and Beck
He is a talented musician ,
singer and has a playful side which was quite charming and let the audience get a glimpse into his personality
Great venue - sound is incredible on the lawn! The rain storms added to the adventure.
My first time to tanglewood & first BC show! 5 star all the way. Brandi was awesome, twins & sista strings were as well.
I’ve seen John Fogerty four times and this was the best one He played ALL his great songs and a good encore his family was part of the band and were amazing don’t pass up an opportunity to see them
Wonderful show! It was so great to get a real feel for who John Legend really is.
A really remarkable person with an incredible voice. So much fun!
Despite the rain- Train was great. Only thing that was disappointing was the long break they took about 30 minutes into the concert
RT never ceases to amaze! Never loses his skills or his edge.
Judy was in super-fine vocal shape, considering her age of 83. Unfortunately, a large proportion of her fans didn’t know what to do with Richard’s intensity. They’d come more for the nostalgia of beautifully-sung easy-listening tunes.
RT performed as lead up to Judy Collins. Superlative performance by both artists. RT was at the top of his game with his supernatural guitar mastery, his long and varied songbook, storied lyrics and understated wit. Judy Collins's voice just soared and especially her renditions of Mr. Tambourine Man and Suzanne floated us high above the starry night sky.
The final offering was an unforgettable duet when RT joined her with guitar on stage, and they sang in harmony the most lilting yet electrifying collaboration on the late (far too early) Sandy Denny's penetrating " Who Knows Where the Time Goes". Both of their voices seem to have only grown stronger and more diverse over their long careers spanning 6 decades. That tribute to Sandy Denny finale alone was the fulfillment and beyond of all hope and anticipation I had for making sure to see these two legends at the same concert.
I was a bit disappointed in the show. Nick wasn't on long enough, and the sound in the shed was terrible. The people in charge of the sound board figured it out for the Mavericks' performance, but I was there to hear Nick!
The boston pops made the show album full.
If you can see this show do so. He’s not a spring chicken.
