For last year’s inaugural Great American Sing-Along, Tom Riis and the American Music Research Center crew ran off 100 programs, confident they’d be recycling more than a few of them. Then 400 people showed up. “We were blown away,” says Riis, director of the AMRC. “People were walking out really pumped and saying how fantastic it was. We thought, ‘Of course we’re going to do it again.'”
This time around, the Jubilate! Sacred Singers choir, song leader David Harris and pianist Bill Elliot lead the masses in Broadway classics, jazz standards and patriotic favorites. The free program begins tonight at 7:30 p.m. in Grusin Music Hall, inside the Imig Music Building at 18th Street and Euclid Avenue on the University of Colorado’s Boulder campus.

Will you step up to support Westword this year?
At Westword, we’re small and scrappy — and we make the most of every dollar from our supporters. Right now, we’re $22,000 away from reaching our December 31 goal of $50,000. If you’ve ever learned something new, stayed informed, or felt more connected because of Westword, now’s the time to give back.
