Watch: Boston Mayor plays Rhapsody in Blue

Watch: Boston Mayor plays Rhapsody in Blue

The Boston Pops soloist this weekend was the city mayor, Michelle Wu.

Yuja’s got some way to go.

Wu 吳弭 said: It’s why I love this city:
I had a wonderful time performing “Rhapsody in Blue” with the Boston Pops at the @bostonsymphony’s Concert for the City, alongside many incredibly talented musicians like the @bostonchildrenschorus, the @bforchestra, @veronicaroblesmariachi and more!

Events like this are what make Boston so special—seeing so much of the incredible talent and artistry that exists in our city, all in one place and entirely free.

I want to thank the BSO for opening their doors to our communities every year, and creating this opportunity for all of us to share in the magic of music’s company together.

Congratulations to all of the musicians on their incredible performances! Honored to share the stage with you and our Boston Pops!
