Revels RiverSing Sunday evening
8th annual Revels RiverSing
Sunday September 18th
6 to 7:30 pm
at the Weeks Footbridge (along the Charles River near Harvard Square)
Come sing familiar folk songs, featuring nationally acclaimed folk singers and recording artists The Nields - as Revels celebrates the approaching Equinox along the banks of the Charles.
Revels music director George Emlen leads this FREE outdoor celebration featuring nearly a hundred area chorus members plus many other guest performers. And sax great Stan Strickland will close the evening with an improvisational sunset serenade from an illuminated Sun/Moon boat floating along the river, providing a magical ending to the end of summer and a striking herald to the onset of fall.
At 5 pm before the sing, come to Winthrop Park (at Mt Auburn and JFK Streets) for family fun including stilt walkers and hula hoops provided by Vegetable Circus, two New Orleans-style "honk" bands and a puppet-filled parade to the river that all can join.
