Detail for RiverSing: Bridging the Charles with Voice & Light : Sep 21 2008 6:00PM - Sep 21 2008 10:00PM
RiverSing: Bridging the Charles with Voice and Light is a free fall celebration featuring seasonal music and communal singing led by Revels music director George Emlen with help from over 100 members of Boston area choruses like the Mystic Chorale, the Halalisa Singers and Revels Repertory Company, saxophones and a folk band (plus giant puppets Oshun and Poseidon) all perched atop the John W. Weeks Footbridge linking Allston and Cambridge. Revelers are invited to come early and spread their picnic blankets along both sides of the river. - wm, 08/07/2008
The communal singing begins at 6:00 pm and lasts until sunset when the underbelly of the Weeks Bridge will be uniquely illuminated by flamboyant LED lighting. The night will close with a River Hymn written for RiverSing by George Emlen, the evenings conductor, and spontaneous dancing along the Charles to the irresistible sounds of the Second Line Social Aid and Pleasure Society Brass Band. (RiverSing lyrics can be obtained in advance by writing RiverSing08@yahoo.com). - wm, 08/07/2008
RiverSing is a collaboration between Revels (The Christmas Revels, SummersDay Revels) and the Charles River Conservancy. In 2004 Revels first teamed up with the CRC to create a free musical fall equinox event along the banks of the Charles River. Since then it has established itself as a beloved Boston area tradition. - wm, 08/07/2008
