  • I can honestly say every Revels event I've attended has been absolutely exhilarating. The spirit of the performers is infectious, and of course the material (ranging from African-American spirituals to English, Scottish, Welsh, and Irish tunes) really appeals to my traditional music-loving heart.

  • Good job all!

    One note: Since this is the Smithsonian, I'd be remiss in not pointing out that your text does not match the performance. The text emphasizes "work song" while the performance has many aspects not characteristic of work song. IMHO, choose one or the other (i.e. work song style, or fancy entertainment style w/o pretense) -- both are valid. Confounding the 2 continues to perpetuate wrong ideas about the nature of chanteys to the general public.
