		<description><![CDATA[How does the Pops celebrate its 125th Season? Class, Tradition and Honor. I haven’t been to any better Pops performances.  What a way to celebrate the Pops’ 125th Anniversary!  The season isn’t finished yet, and the big finale of the summer is always the Pops on the Esplanade for the 4th of July.  Fantastic performances!]]></description>

I seem to have a lot of musical firsts, and this Pops concert program was by far my favorite ever. Keith Lockhart and the Pops put together a program that included Hollywood’s and Boston’s elite, 9/11 Rescue workers and local artists, and the programs were so phenomenal that I had to attend twice!  ]]></description>
