==== 2017: "Lights, Camera…Music: Celebrating Six Decades of John Williams" ==== During the 2017 Pops Spring Season, the orchestra had its first season-long tribute to a composer, that composer being John Williams. They recorded a new CD, ''Lights, Camera, Music: Six Decades of John Williams'', which was released during the season. The orchestra had two pre-season events which marked the first time the orchestra had ever used Symphony Hall before May: "Celebrating John Williams!" and "''[[E.T.]]'' in Concert". The Pops opened the season with [[Queen Latifah]], and went on to host such events as "[[Mamma Mia! (musical)|Mamma Mia]]! Mother's Day with the Music of [[ABBA]]", working with Ben Folds, "Gospel Night" in its 25th anniversary with Floyd and the Boston Pops Gospel Choir; [[Leslie Odom Jr.]] in his orchestral debut after starring in ''[[Hamilton: An American Musical]]''; performing a tribute to [[The Beatles]] with Larry "Cha-Chi" Loprete as the host; "Parting with [[The B-52s]]", and giving the world-premiere of ''[[Sondheim on Sondheim]]'' with Philip Boykin, Carmen Cusak, [[Gabriel Ebert]], and [[Lisa Howard (American actress, born 1975)|Lisa Howard]] as the vocalists.
