At Boston Landmarks Orchestra, our music begins with you. It is only through the generosity of the community that makes it possible for professional musicians to bring free, live orchestral music into people’s everyday lives so that everyone, regardless of income, age, ability, or background, can be moved, connected, and inspired by music.
Donor Impact
At a Glance: 2026 Summer Concert Series
Beyond the Numbers
- American Sign Language (ASL) Interpreters and Haptic Suits translated music in new ways to d/Deaf and Hard of Hearing audience members at our Summer Concerts.
- Families explored music through the Maestro Zone, Instrument Playground, and were inspired by Prelude Concerts performed by young artists from our partner organizations The Rivers School Conservatory, Four Strings Academy, Chelsea High School Orchestra, North End Music and Performing Arts Center, and Boston String Academy.
- All concerts and activities were 100% free.

Thank You
A special thank you to our Music Circle community listed below who have joined us at the Music Friends level and above during the 2026 season. The full community of donors who make our work possible is too numerous to list here, but our gratitude extends to every one of you. Because of your generosity, Landmarks can do what no admission price ever could: bring people together across cultures and neighborhoods through the power of great music, free to all. From the Hatch Shell to community stages across the city, you help ensure that a seat at the orchestra belongs to everyone.
