ekTEK assumed the production management of fledgling ensemble, Boston Landmarks Orchestra in 2003. “Landmarks” was created by classical music visionary, the late Charles Ansbacher, to quite simply bring high calibre full orchestra music to the masses. In 2003, this vision included a 42-date summer tour of Massachusetts where Landmarks played in public spaces all over the state. This involved the mobilization of an orchestra consisting of 60 musicians, and the negotiation of some challenging non-traditional performance spaces. The tour was an incredible success bringing Landmarks heightened visibility and bringing artistically excellent music to people for free.
In the years following, ekTEK produced Landmarks concerts in venues such as Fenway Park and the USS Cassin Young military vessel!
ekTEK has remained part of the Landmarks family, and was crucial in the transition of the orchestra into summer residency at the iconic Hatch Shell where Landmarks draws thousands of people on a weekly basis.
