CRITICS' PICKS

Classical music

Tonight, the Boston Pops Esplanade Orchestra takes to the Charles River Esplanade for its annual celebratory concert capped by fireworks (portions of which will be broadcast live on CBS). . . . Tomorrow, James Levine and the Boston Symphony Orchestra usher in the new Tanglewood Season with "The Capture of Troy" - that is, Part I of Berlioz's epic opera "The Trojans." Part II, "The Trojans at Carthage," follows on Sunday afternoon. Marcus Haddock is Aeneas, Anna Caterina Antonacci is Cassandra, and Anne Sofie von Otter is Dido.
