MUSIC

The Mystic Chorale, one of Greater Boston’s favorite community choruses, presents “Bright Morning Stars”, led by founder and gifted song leader, Nick Page. Experience the harmony of 200+ singers accompanied by our first ever bluegrass band as we celebrate American roots music from Sacred Harp anthems to contemporary folksongs, all expressing a range of emotions from deep sorrow to exultant joy. This concert skillfully mixes songs that are astonishingly different from each other, such as a railroad Gospel Song, a 1778 William Billings shape note anthem, some gorgeous Appalachian Hymns including Bright Morning Stars, a Contemporary Spiritual song by Susan Werner, a joyous ukulele song by Nick Page, and the well-known Will the Circle Be Unbroken?.
