BSO’s Concert for the City invites Mayor Wu to the stage

The crowd was a bit raucous at this Saturday afternoon’s Concert for the City at Symphony Hall. The many cliches about the transformative power of art from those who introduced the acts and the interjections in the middle of songs veered towards being annoying. But let’s not dwell on these things. They are not particularly important. Much more important is that several hundred members of our city got to share in the experience of a truly lovely afternoon of music.
