EVENING AT POPS

TV Broadcasts

This marvelous idea started with Arthur Fiedler's on the baton in the seventies, followed by John Williams and now Keith Lockhart. In some concerts there were other guest conductors too.

Haven't found a complete listing so this will be a work in progress. Check this segment from time to time to see any updates.

Please note that the concert's date and broadcast's date might be different, so the dates shown here might need correction.
