Event Description

The Concord Chorus, with Music Director Dr. Kevin Leong, presents Together in the Light - Ernest Bloch: Sacred Service and works of Randall Thompson, on Saturday, May 10, 8 p.m., at St. Camillus Church, 1185 Concord Turnpike, Arlington MA. This moving concert is part of the official Concord250 celebration of the American Revolution, themed “Still Heard ‘Round the World.” The concert features David Kravitz, baritone soloist and John Sullivan on piano. The setting of the performance in Arlington marks the very route the British soldiers took to march to Lexington and Concord, and near the site of the bloodiest battle of that day in 1775. Ernest Bloch immigrated from Switzerland and became a U.S. citizen in 1924. He wrote Avodath Hakodesh (Sacred Service) while visiting his home country, and then safely settled permanently in the U.S. in 1939 before the start of the second World War. Join us as we celebrate and reflect on the beginnings of our nation and the power of the music of American composers. Saturday, May 10, 2025 8:00 p.m., St. Camillus Church, 1185 Concord Turnpike, Arlington MA. Special prices: $25 general, $20 seniors (65+), and $8 children and students.

    When Thoreau Left Walden Pond: Several More Lives to Live

    I left the woods for as good a reason as I went there. Perhaps it seemed to me that I had several more lives to live and could not spare any more time for that one.On September 6, 1847, Henry David Thoreau left his one-room house at Walden Pond and returned to Concord. Living at Walden for over two years had been a life-changing experience for the thirty-year-old Thoreau. Wanting to be a writer, he went to the pond to write, and while there he did exactly that. He produced two drafts of A Week on the Concord and Merrimack Rivers. He wrote one lecture about Thomas Carlyle and another about living at the pond called “A History of Myself.” He also penned an essay titled “Ktaadn” about going to Maine in the summer of 1846. And he wrote in his journal almost daily. But what would he do once he was back in Concord?
