Timeline
Five years later he began the Explanade Concerts, a series of free outdoor performances of the Boston Symphony, and the next year he became conductor of the Boston Pops Orchestra, which consisted of members of the Boston Symphony, and remained its conductor until 1979. Under his leadership the orchestra became one of the most recognizable and popular in the world; Fiedler didn't want it to have the image of a staid, stuffy, stereotypical "long-hair" chamber orchestra, and his innovative programs of classical music, Broadway show tunes, folk songs, the works of contemporary composers and jazz attracted generations of fans, and both the orchestra and Fiedler himself became icons among music fans. They regularly performed concerts on PBS (Public Broadcasting System), attracting a much wider audience than most orchestras ever received.
