Boston, MA – Boston University Pep Band will be providing the entertainment this Saturday, February 8 for “Truck Day” at Fenway Park. As the Red Sox equipment truck prepares for its journey to spring training in Florida, the BU Pep Band will perform for the fans celebrating the start of the new baseball season.
“The BU Pep Band is very excited to perform at Fenway Park this Saturday morning. We were just there for “Frozen Fenway” on January 11th, and our last time performing there was for “College Night at Fenway Park” in May 2012,” says Aaron Goldberg, Director of Athletic Bands, Boston University.
The live music begins at 9am on Saturday and will continue as the truck exits Fenway Park, rolls down Yawkey Way, and embarks for Florida.
Goldberg adds, “This is going to be a fun performance and a great opportunity for this high-energy ensemble!”
Institutional Biography
Founded in 1839, Boston University is an internationally recognized private research university with more than 30,000 students participating in undergraduate, graduate, and professional programs. BU consists of 17 colleges and schools along with a number of multi-disciplinary centers and institutes which are central to the school’s research and teaching mission. The Boston University College of Fine Arts was created in 1954 to bring together the School of Music, the School of Theatre, and the School of Visual Arts. The University’s vision was to create a community of artists in a conservatory-style school offering professional training in the arts to both undergraduate and graduate students, complemented by a liberal arts curriculum for undergraduate students. Since those early days, education at the College of Fine Arts has begun on the BU campus and extended into the city of Boston, a rich center of cultural, artistic and intellectual activity.
