“Music of the Macabre…and More’
Do you enjoy a spine-tingling thrill at Halloween time? Then you won’t want to miss “Music of the Macabre … and More,” a program on Oct. 19 to benefit the Unitarian Universalist Society of Fairhaven. The concert, a presentation of the church’s Music Committee, will begin at 7 p.m.
To get you into the seasonal spirit, you’ll be regaled with a spell-binding blend of enchanting music on the organ, some melancholy (and amusing) music, traditional and Broadway songs, a bit of ghoulish humor, and spooky stories and poems.
Performers include organist Dwight Thomas, pianist/vocalist Tim Evans, soprano Bonnie Brault and her students, the church choir, and other talented members of the UUSF. Well-known storyteller Toby Dills will bewitch the audience with one of his favorite tales.
The suggested donation is $10 for the program. Light refreshments will follow. The church at 102 Green St. is handicapped accessible via a ramp off the Center Street driveway. For more information, call 508-992-7081.
