Families, seniors, young people, and more are sure to enjoy a concert with Anything Goes, featuring Mark Greenberg and Ben Koenig, on Saturday, May 7, 2022, at 7:00 pm in the Aldrich Public Library's reading room. The concert, in memory of long time Friends of the Library President Christine Litchfield, will include American songs from the folk tradition to Tin Pan Alley.

When the Friends decided to hold a concert in Christine's memory, Anything Goes came immediately to mind - they performed a great sing-along concert at the library a few years ago. The duo's music crisscrosses the American musical landscape with original arrangements steeped in traditional styles. There will be something for everyone to enjoy – and, maybe, sing along with.

At Friends President Christine Litchfield's passing in September, 2021, Central Vermont lost a musician who loved to share her music. Christine spent much of her life encouraging singing throughout the Barre community, whether while teaching elementary school, serving as music director of the Barre Congregational Church, or, in retirement, volunteering at Woodridge Nursing Home, the Barre Senior Center, Project Independence, and more. Even during the pandemic, she could be found leading a virtual senior sing along at 9:00 am every Saturday morning.

The concert at the Aldrich Public Library, 6 Washington St., Barre 05641, is free and open to all, and refreshments will be served by the Friends afterwards. Masks are requested at this event.
