Bridging the seasons

In celebration of the Autumnal Equinox and the majesty of the Charles River Parklands, the Charles River Conservancy and the Revels called neighbors from Cambridge and Allston to the second annual RiverSing on Sept. 22. With massed choruses in the hundreds on either side of the Charles, traditional river songs were shared from shore to shore. The celebration ended with the procession of an autumnal puppet across the Weeks Bridge at dusk. Harvard, a sponsor of this year's RiverSing, is among the many organizations and individuals that strive to protect and beautify the Charles.
