Boston Civic Symphony

About the channel

Many thanks to former Music Director, Max Hobart, for his generosity, foresight, initiative and preservation of these concert video files for 23 years (1994 – 2017). His hope is that these will bring pleasure, pride and recognition to many musicians of the orchestra, soloists, conductors, fans and staff of the Boston Civic Symphony for years to come. Founded in 1924, the Boston Civic Symphony is the second oldest symphony orchestra in the city. As one of Boston's most respected musical organizations, the BCS has distinguished itself from other local musical groups through its focus on presenting an unusually broad range of music by exceptionally skilled students and amateurs. The Civic performs four major concerts each season, which offer a range of classical and contemporary music. Concerts are held at New England Conservatory's Jordan Hall and the Fine Art Center at Regis College in Weston, MA where the BCS is the orchestra in residence.
