Tanglewood

Massachusetts music grounds

Tanglewood is an estate in the Berkshire Mountains of Massachusetts, home to the Boston Symphony Orchestra's summer festival since 1937.

The name evokes its pastoral setting and has become synonymous with outdoor classical music performance: We have tickets to Tanglewood this weekend.

The Tanglewood Music Center trains young musicians.

More generally, tanglewood describes twisted, interwoven branches or thickets.
