Happy 200th Birthday, Abraham Lincoln!
Feb. 12th, 2009 11:12 amThe Aaron Copland School of Music, in conjunction with the NYC Labor Chorus and Riverside Inspirational choir, will be commemorating Abraham Lincoln's 200th birthday at the Riverside Church in Manhattan tonight at 8pm.
I am part of ACSM's chorus and we will be singing "The Lonesome Train" with some very well known people. This includes, but is not limited to: Ruby Dee, Eric Weissberg, Michael Mark, and Sam Waterson. <~Yes, *that* Sam Waterson.
In addition to "Lonesome Train", we will be premiering a new arrangement of "Amazing Grace" by our own Bruce Saylor. The orchestra will be playing "Appalachian Spring" by Copland and "Black, Brown, & Beige" by Duke Ellington.
If you'd like to go, tickets are $15 at the door ($10 for students) and all proceeds go to the Food Pantry. http://www.theriversidechurchny.org/
Hope to see you there!!
