The BOSTON LANDMARKS ORCHESTRA performs free outdoor concerts in the City of Boston throughout the summer, delighting thousands on a weekly basis. The Orchestra—made up of some of Boston’s most accomplished professional musicians—uses great symphonic music as a means of gathering together people of all backgrounds and ages in joyful collaboration. The Orchestra regularly collaborates with a range of cultural and social service organizations to ensure participation across ethnic, economic, and cultural divides. The Boston Landmarks Orchestra is committed to BREAKING DOWN BARRIERS to access for people with disabilities. It offers braille, large-print, and text-to- speech programs, assisted listening devices, and ambassadors to greet and assist people at a handicapped drop-off point. The Orchestra works with American Sign Language (ASL) interpreters as performers at select concerts. In 2014, the Orchestra was one of the first organizations to be recognized as a Massachusetts Cultural Council UP Organization. For more information about the Boston Landmarks Orchestra and its programs, please visit www.landmarksorchestra.org or download our mobile app on your iOS or Android device. If you already have the app, be sure to update it regularly so you will continue to receive weather alerts and notifications! Uniquely positioned at the crossroads of music and medicine, the LONGWOOD SYMPHONY ORCHESTRA was established in 1982 and holds a distinctive role in Boston’s cultural landscape. Since the early 1980s, the orchestra has presented public concerts at New England Conservatory’s Jordan Hall, and since 1991, each concert has raised money for a different Community Partner, benefiting underserved populations throughout the Greater Boston region. Nationally recognized for its musical quality, innovative programming, and unique model of community engagement, the orchestra’s members are primarily healthcare professionals from Boston's leading hospitals and universities, including doctors, medical students, research scientists, nurses, therapists, and caregivers−many of whom pursued music studies before turning to medicine. For more information, please visit www.longwoodsymphony.org.

Twice winner of the American Symphony League’s ASCAP Award for Adventuresome Programming of Contemporary Music, RONALD FELDMAN has achieved critical acclaim for his work as conductor and cellist. He has appeared as guest conductor with major orchestras such as the London Symphony Orchestra, Royal Scottish National Orchestra, Boston Pops Orchestra, Rochester Philharmonic Orchestra, Saint Louis Symphony, and Quebec Symphony. In August of 2016 Mr. Feldman recorded three albums of music by Kevin Kaska with the Royal Scottish National Orchestra. Mr. Feldman joined the Boston Symphony at the age of 19. He has appeared as cello soloist with many orchestras performing a wide range of concerto repertoire from Dvorak to Ligeti. His many chamber music affiliations have included performances with the Boston Symphony Chamber Players, Collage New Music Ensemble, the Boston Conservatory Chamber Players, and the Williams Chamber Players. His performances include collaborations with artists Peter Serkin, Emmanuel Ax, Garrick Ohlsson, Gil Shaham, and Yo Yo Ma. After successful appearances as guest conductor for three consecutive seasons at Symphony Hall and at Tanglewood, the Boston Symphony’s summer home, composer and Conductor John Williams appointed Mr. Feldman Assistant Conductor of the Boston Pops Orchestra. He served as assistant to John Williams from 1989-1993.

In addition to the Longwood Symphony Orchestra Mr. Feldman currently directs the award-winning Berkshire Symphony, the orchestra in residence at Williams College. Mr. Feldman is on the faculties of the Berklee College of Music and Williams College where he is Artist in Residence, Lecturer in Music, Chamber Music coordinator, and Conductor of the award-winning Berkshire Symphony. Praised for her beautiful sound, natural stage presence, and energy, flutist MIRA MAGRILL is an active musician, teacher, and soloist in the New York City area. Former teacher and Principal Flute of the New York Philharmonic, Jeanne Baxtresser, describes her as “a remarkable flutist and student in every area: talent, motivation, discipline, creativity, comfort in performance, and character.” She has won numerous competitions and awards, including the Music Teachers’ National Association Senior Woodwind Competition, the Stony Brook University Concerto Competition, and a Merit Award from the Arts Recognition and Talent Search. She also won 2nd Prize in the National Flute Association’s 2015 Young Artist Competition, and was honored with the award of Best Performance of the Newly Commissioned Work for her rendition of Jim & John by Michael Fiday.

Dr. Magrill grew up in Edmond, Oklahoma, and has performed extensively as a soloist and in chamber ensembles throughout the United States, Denmark, Chile, Costa Rica, Italy, and China. Newly appointed Principal Flute of the New Haven Symphony Orchestra, she also holds the position of Second Flute/Piccolo with the Chamber Orchestra of New York. As Principal Flute in the Young Musicians Foundation Debut Orchestra, Mira was the featured soloist in the premiere of John Williams’ “War Horse” orchestral suite, conducted by Mr. Williams. She has been invited to perform with many summer festival ensembles, including fellowships at the Tanglewood Music Center, Brevard Music Center, Round Top Festival Institute, the Atlantic Music Festival, and the Thy Chamber Festival in Denmark. An avid performer of new music, Dr. Magrill loves collaborating with composers to perform their works. In 2017, she premiered the new concerto, Concerto Fantastique, by her father, Dr. Samuel Magrill, with the Chelsea Symphony in New York City. She has premiered many new works by her father, including Odyssey Etude, Bagatelle, and Tango Flauto. As principal flutist of the International Opera Theater Orchestra, she premiered the new opera Iago by Carlo Pedini in Città della Pieve, Italy. She has also performed in a variety of new music ensembles, including the LA based wild Up, collaborations with The Industry, and “Friday Night Live,” a contemporary Ladino/Mediterranean fusion band of flute, bass, guitar, and percussion. Dr. Magrill recently completed her Doctorate in Flute Performance (DMA), studying with the renowned soloist Carol Wincenc at Stony Brook University in New York, where she was also on the faculty, teaching all undergraduate flute majors and minors as the Graduate Flute TA. She is currently on the music faculty at the Rudolf Steiner School in Manhattan and a chamber music coach at the Stony Brook Pre-College Division, and also maintains an active private flute studio. Previous studies include a graduate certificate at University of Southern California, a BFA in Flute Performance at Carnegie Mellon University and an MM in Flute Performance and Chamber Music at the University of Michigan. Previous teachers include Jim Walker, Jeanne Baxtresser, Alberto Almarza, Amy Porter, Amy Zuback, and Christina Jennings. For more information, visit miramagrill.com.
