--added more detail to the setlist info & venue info
--this venue opened in 1937 & has been the summer home of the Boston Symphony Orchestra ever since...it began its progression into life with a series of concerts put on by Henry Kimball Hadley & Gertrude Robinson Smith & held on August 23, 25 & 26, 1934, at the Interlaken estate of Daniel Hanna, about a mile from today's festival site - these concerts were a success & they were held again the following year in 1935 (both years featured the New York Philharmonic Orchestra)...then the Boston Symphony Orchestra (BSO) was invited to perform at the 1936 festival held at Holmwood, the home of Margaret Vanderbilt in nearby Lenox & gave its first concert on 1936-08-13 & they have remained the center of the music festival ever since...in 1937 the festival site was moved to "Tanglewood", an estate donated by Rosamond "Dixey" Sturgis Brooks (Mrs.Gorham Brooks) & Miss Mary Aspinwall Tappan & the season consisted of six concerts over two weeks given inside a temporary tent erected around a plywood shell...on 1938-08-04, Tanglewood unveiled "The Shed", a permanent open-air structure with some 5,100 seats...a major acoustic refurbishment was made to "The Shed" in 1959...for Tanglewood's 50th anniversary in 1988, "The Shed" was rededicated as "The Serge Koussevitzky Music Shed" (commonly known as "Koussevitzky Music Shed")...in 1994, "Seiji Ozawa Hall" opened & is the place where most Tanglewood chamber concerts, as well as TMC orchestra concerts, now take place - it has been ranked one of the 2 Best Concert Halls in the U.S. built in the past 50 years, one of the 4 Best Concert Halls ever built in the U.S., & the 13th Best Concert Hall in the world...besides classical music, Tanglewood hosts the "Festival Of Contemporary Music", jazz & popular artists, concerts, & frequent appearances by James Taylor, John Williams, & the Boston Pops...it is also home to the Aaron Copland Library, Theatre, Chamber Music Hall & three music schools: the Tanglewood Music Center, Tanglewood Learning Center, & the Boston University Tanglewood Institute...also known as "Tanglewood Music Center";  "Tanglewood Music Centre"
