River Concert: Mass in Blue July 8, 2016


Larry Vote was guest conductor for the yearly choral concert at St.Mary's College of Maryland on the green.  The concert featured Lena Siekely, mezzo-soprano and the RCS chorus of mostly students and alumni.  A current student, Joey Haavik sang a duet with Ms. Siekely.

The crowd patiently endured several rain showers before and during the concert, and the sun even set beautifully.

River Concert: Brass and Blues ... Plus Fireworks

Defying the possibility of thunderstorms, the July 1st River Concert went on with occasional strong gusts of wind and a little light rain.  We even had sun for a sunset.

The concert at St. Mary's College of Maryland was held Friday on the green as usual and featured Blues musician Linwood Taylor, trumpeters Amy McCabe, Zachary Silberschlag and Jeffrey Silberschlag, trombonist Bryan Bourne and saxophonist Rick Humphries.  Some of the music included "Trumpeter's Holiday", "Spinning Wheel" by Blood, Sweat and Tears, "Uptown Funk" and Tchaikovsky's "1812 Overture"

And Fireworks!!!!!
