Tanglewood: A World-Class Outdoor Performing Arts Venue!
The famous performing arts venue of Tanglewood is nestled away in the Berkshire Hills of western Massachusetts and sets high standards for musical festivals, especially in the warmer months. Home to the famous Boston Symphony Orchestra, and the site of one of the world’s best-known music festivals, Tanglewood hosts the Festival of Contemporary Music, along with many other events including concerts of various genres from jazz to pop and frequent visits from James Taylor, John Williams, and the Boston Pops.
The beautiful rolling hills and scenery around Tanglewood add to the location’s magic. The surrounding area also hosts over 100 other cultural attractions, outdoor recreation, and delicious local food. Artists and performers can find their inspiration from the nearby lake and natural beauty of the surrounding green hills. Visitors can come to the town of Lenox MA to enjoy the sights and sounds of this amazing place.
Tanglewood’s amazing acoustics have been shaped by the nearby elements of nature and further refined by modern technology. The amazing sound combined with the list of famous performing artists have made the place a popular destination for music lovers, so plan on arriving early to beat the traffic arriving for each performance. The lawn is a popular place for people who did not plan well ahead to secure the indoor seating, and the shaded areas closer to the stage will fill up soonest. Many legendary musicians have played Tanglewood including maestros like Leonard Bernstein and John Williams, violinists like Yo-Yo Ma and singers like Aretha Franklin and Stevie Wonder. It has even been the site for historical premieres such as the debut performance of Leonard Bernstein’s “West Side Story.”, later made into two big movies.
