Boston Festival Orchestra Chamber Series: AAPI Heritage Month
May is Asian American and Pacific Islander Heritage Month! Boston Festival Orchestra presents this concert on Saturday, May 25, one day before the 100th anniversary of President Coolidge’s decision to sign the Immigration Act, which included the Asian Exclusion Act. To celebrate, the BFO performs special selections of chamber music that lift up the voices of AAPI performers and composers. Their performance shines a light on local AAPI voices, including guest appearances with several local AAPI authors and researchers. Learn the names of AAPI composers and authors, and explore beautiful and thought-provoking compositions. This concert is free, but registration is required. A brief reception will follow the concert.
