Abstract: Generalizing Feingold and Frenkel's construction, we use Weyl bosonic fields to construct toroidal Lie algebras of types $ A_n, B_n$, $ C_n$ and $ D_n$ of levels $ -1, -2, -1/2$ and $ -2$ respectively. In particular, our construction also gives new bosonic constructions for orthogonal Lie algebras in the cases of affine Lie algebras.
