THE LENOX LIBRARY PRESENTS
Jeremy Yudkin’s
PRE-CONCERT LECTURES
FOR THE TANGLEWOOD SEASON
“All you need are willing ears and a love of music.” So says Jeremy Yudkin, the Tanglewood pre-concert lecturer, who will once again be presenting his series of lectures about the Tanglewood concerts at the Library every weekend during the summer season. Participants rave about the experience: “He really brings the music alive,” says one. “He is entertaining, warm, and brilliant, all at the same time!” says another. Come to the free opening lecture on Saturday June 27 at 2:30 and see for yourself!
