Old South Church celebrates First Night!
Just a note to clarify what's going on at Old South Church for First Night. You may have read about the unfortunate damage done to their property as a result of some renovations being done to the Copley Square T stop. Well, fortunately, the building is still open and still sound, and their First Night festivities are indeed taking place. The afternoon performance did have to be canceled, but the traditional evening program - Old South Brass and Percussion - goes on, at 6:30 and 8 p.m. The best of Boston’s brass and percussion artists join pianist Harry Huff in a supersonic concert, playing electrifying arrangements of popular classics by Bach, Copland, Mussourgsky and LeRoy Anderson, as well as leading the audience in singing stirring favorites.
