Boston Children’s Chorus honors the remarkable legacy of Melnea Cass, the “First Lady of Roxbury,” presented by the Gardner Museum.A tireless advocate for justice, Cass championed women’s suffrage, Black employment, early childhood education, care for the elderly, and civil rights leadership as president of Boston’s NAACP.
Her lifelong commitment to equity shaped generations in Boston and her influence continues to resonate today.
Audiences are invited to celebrate the enduring impact of this powerful yet often unsung Boston icon through a program of music that reflects her spirit of activism, community, and hope.
The Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum’s Winter/Spring 2026 Weekend Concert Series features a fifteen-concert season curated by Abrams Curator of Music George Steel running from January 25 through May 17, 2026.
The winter/spring season showcases world-class artists in the Museum’s extraordinary Calderwood Hall—a 300-seat “sonic cube” with three levels of balconies designed so that 80% of seats are front row, creating a uniquely intense and intentional listening experience.
Dating to 1927, the Gardner’s Weekend Concert Series is the longest running museum music program in the country.
