One of Boston’s most beautiful spaces will be filled with music in a free lunchtime concert series every Friday throughout the summer. The Boston Public Library courtyard, one of the best-kept secrets in town, will host music that ranges from jazz to classical and from a cappella to operetta. The series delivers entertainment to music lovers through August 27 in Copley Square. All concerts are free and begin at 12:30 p.m.

On August 27, Robert Pinsky, Rakalam Bob Moses, and Stan Strickland will be performing. In this spell-binding collaboration of masters, the former U.S. Poet Laureate performs his poetry accompanied by two outstanding jazz improvisers on drums and saxophone. Asked to describe the music and how he feels about it, Pinsky offered these lines from his poem, History of My Heart:

. . . the heart

Yearning further into giving itself into the air, breath

Strained into song emptying the golden bell it comes from,

The pure source poured altogether out and away.

The Boston Public Library’s partners in making these free lunchtime musical interludes available to the public are American Century Music, the Boston Conservatory, the New England Conservatory of Music, and JazzBoston.

Ted’s Tips – Weekly wedding insights from Westin’s wedding planner Ted Daniels…

TOASTS
“Toasts are a customary element of each wedding celebration, but can often spiral out of control. It’s preferable to only have one or two short toasts during the wedding, as guests don’t want or need to hear all of the grueling details about the bride and groom. When toasts take too long, they can detract from the fun atmosphere of the celebration. Therefore, lengthier and more personal toasts should be reserved for the rehearsal dinner.”

Ted’s Tips – Weekly wedding insights from Westin’s wedding planner Ted Daniels…

BRIDE & GROOM SEATING
“The traditional long head table is out for many reasons. You can only talk to the person that is seated to your left or right, your attendants don’t get to sit with their dates or significant others and the table usually sits empty after dinner. The bride and groom should either sit at a sweetheart table or a round table with their family or best man and maid of honor and their dates.”
