This year’s line-up includes a panel of Folk Project members presenting a miscellaneous repertoire of songs just begging for audience participation.

An annual event since 1993, Chorus Song Night resurrects the spirit of community singing, which is sadly missing in today’s world. This year’s event features Jack Kilrain, a big man with a big voice and a bag full of sea shanties, drinking songs and pub ditties; Mark Westphal, presenting a variety of Beatles, Buddy Holly and other great songs familiar to folkies of a certain age; Amy Livingston, song collector in the Morris Ale tradition; and Mike Agranoff, Minstrel program chair and gatherer of songs from many genres.

“This will be a night when a panel of four singers goes round-robin in singing songs. Some will be familiar, some maybe less so, but all easily picked up. It's an evening of community singing, and we sometimes forget how much fun that can be,” said Agranoff.

The performance is part of The Minstrel Acoustic Concert Series, sponsored by The Folk Project each Friday evening at The Fellowship.

The Folk Project is a non-profit 501(c) Corporation whose mission is to present high caliber folk music performances and instructional workshops for the public and members; to encourage development of musicianship and performance skills in the northern New Jersey area; and to provide interesting social and learning activities relating to traditional and participatory folk music and dance.
