	Tanglewood - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Tanglewood, a music venue located in Lenox and Stockbridge, Massachusetts, has been the Boston Symphony Orchestra's summer home since 1937.
		In addition to hosting world-renowned programs of classical, jazz, and popular music, it also provides musical training in the form of the Boston University Tanglewood Institute (BUTI) for high school students and the Tanglewood Music Center for preprofessional musicians.
		Tanglewood was named by American author Nathaniel Hawthorne, who moved to a small house named Tanglewood Cottage, in Lenox, Massachusetts in March 1850, on the advice of his publisher William Ticknor.

	Tanglewood Jazz Festival 2000: Gillespie Allstars, Brubeck, Bennett, Krall
		If Tanglewood is going to continue to treat jazz as “America’s classical music,” the least it could do is program the jazz equivalent of the classical season’s Festival of Contemporary Music.
		Be that as it may, and in spite of Tanglewood’s perennial reliance on crowd-pleasing, box-office-busters like the much-beloved Tony Bennett and Dave Brubeck, the festival opened and closed with masterful performances by the Dizzy Gillespie Alumni Allstars and Brubeck, respectively.
		And if the festival presented a snapshot of jazz and jazz-influenced popular music that did not recognize any forward motion in jazz in nearly half a century, it certainly celebrated some of the music’s greatest heroes and innovations.

	Finding jazz: Tanglewood Jazz ‘98 by Seth Rogovoy
		Jazz, said Bennett in a recent phone interview from his New York apartment, is “of the moment.” Jazz is “not something that’s pre-planned and pre-thought.
		Bennett is a singer of impeccable taste, and in spite of his claim not to be a jazz singer, at his best he swings as hard as most jazz vocalists.
		JOE LOVANO: Widely considered one of the leading jazz saxophonists of the decade, the 45-year-old Joe Lovano is a versatile, hard-swinging improviser, as comfortable with a standard (last year he released “Celebrating Sinatra,” a tribute to the late singer) as he is with one of his more abstract original compositions.
