celebrate freedom
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 7/7/06
as a child of immigrant parents,throughout my childhood,i was taught to cherish "freedom". not until i had my own 4 children & made the 4th esplanade concert a yearly event did i realize/appreciate what a gem we (here in massachusetts) had. the venue,shell,pops,event but,most of all the opportunity to celebrate our freedom. thank you angela mcgrath p.s.this year i watched from home & did not think the program was as good,i personally perfer the "old traditional" program/music & performers that are indigenous to the area. thanks
