Boston – Symphony Hall

Posted on by Matthew Green

One of the nice things about Gloucester is that we have the conveniences of living near Boston, but the benefits of a relatively small community.  Just a few days ago, I went to a concert at Symphony Hall. It’s great to have a world-class orchestra practically right down the road!

It was my first time at Symphony Hall, and although the performance itself was fantastic, I was also rather impressed by the venue.  Here are a few photos I took with my iPhone (using the accessory lenses I reviewed earlier, in most cases the Instagram app, and in the first case, a panorama app).

Just before the performance. The message projected on the wall is telling us to turn off all cell phones and electronic devices... and I take photos of the sign with my cell phone...

  2. Oh wow! I was at the same performance in that magnificent space! Agree, the first class music, especially the soloists, sparkled as much as all the gold! It was a very appreciative audience -except for the moment when someone’s cell phone went off. . . .

  4. Father Green, I’ve been enjoying your posts. You’ve got an eye for interesting and not commonly photographed places around the neighborhood. (I guess this includes the larger neighborhood of Boston itself.) Please keep them coming.
