Walkabout clearwater chorus performs tzena
The Walkabout Clearwater Chorus is a chartered member and supporter of the Hudson River Sloop Clearwater. Founded in 1984 by folk music legend, Pete Seeger, the chorus is a "people's chorus" made up people who love to sing and promote environmental and social justice causes. The chorus is also known for its 7-foot-tall (2.1 m) model of the Sloop Clearwater which appears with them at various festivals and parades. The chorus gives performances at concert venues and festivals throughout the Hudson Valley area and beyond. The Walkabout Chorus appears on Pete Seeger's 2008 Grammy Award-winning CD Pete Seeger at 89. The Seeger Session of Liedstoeckel, Cuppatea and Walkabout Clearwater Chorus was performed live at UZ-Pressefest 2009 in Dortmund, Germany, where the Walkabout Clearwater Chorus has performed bi-annually since 2001.
Walkabout also runs its own coffee house with a different featured folk music performer each month. The concerts take place at the Memorial United Methodist Church in White Plains from October to May of each year on the second Saturday of each month.
