REVIEWS
- MassLive – The audience at Tanglewood was transported on Saturday night to a battlefield at Normandy, the bowels of a slave ship, and a galaxy far, far away under the baton of maestro John Williams. Williams and the Boston Pops provided 90 minutes of movie magic during the annual Film Night. Full review
- The Berkshire Eagle – The always eagerly-awaited film montages, a Williams innovation, included a blend of historical and re-enacted scenes from the battlefield and the home front as a backdrop to “Hymn to the Fallen” from Spielberg’s “Saving Private Ryan.” With the BUTI choristers (16- to 19-year-olds) supplying full-throated vocalism, the tribute to the Greatest Generation was especially moving. – Full review
