River Singers begin fall season

WESTMINSTER WEST — The River Singers community choir, led by Mary Cay Brass, is embarking on its 29th year of song this fall. The multi-generational, multi-cultural group is open to all beginning Tuesday, Sept. 17, from 6:30 to 8 p.m. at the Westminster West Church, with two holiday concerts at Next Stage in Putney on December 14 and 15.

According to a news release, “the River Singers build bridges with music; bridges to each other by opening their voices in song; and bridges to the wider world with songs from many lands; healing songs, ritual songs, seasonal songs all expressing joy, love, and peace from many lands - South Africa, the Republic of Georgia, the Balkans, the British Isles, American folk, social justice songs, gospel, and more. And they build bridges through their benefit concerts, which this season will be for Community Asylum Seekers Project (CASP) in southern Vermont.”
