Casual concert a hit on the 'Rive Gauche du Chenango'
A brass quintet from the Binghamton Philharmonic played the first in a new series of “Casual Concerts on the River” Friday, Sept. 2, at the Peacemaker’s Stage on the Binghamton river walk. From Court Street to the stage, the promenade of the Chenango’s rive gauche (left bank) was comfortably filled with folks who took advantage of a beautiful evening to enjoy a delightful free hour-long concert in a modern but elegant outdoor venue in the heart of downtown. The Casual Concerts on the River, like the Collier Street Farmer’s Market Brown Bag Lunch concerts, which concluded their season earlier that same day, serve to showcase some of the myriad performing artists in a city which has become a center of art and culture in the region. Like First Friday and the recently inaugurated BiziNight, Casual Concerts on the River reflects a growing spirit of new life and energy in downtown Binghamton.

Sedaka hits woven seamlessly into CRT musical comedy
High-energy acting, strong vocals, flawless choreography and lighting, and a clever stage play combined to showcase songs of Neil Sedaka as the Chenango River Theatre in Greene presented “Breaking Up is Hard to Do” (Friday, Aug. 19). The Eric Jackson-Ben Winters musical comedy, premiered in Albany in 2005, wove in 16 of Sedaka’s songs so well that one would think they were written expressly for this show. The principals showed their versatility in a show demanding acting, singing, and dancing. The whole cast and crew worked smoothly together with good pacing, never losing momentum or energy. Two hours seemed to fly by. On so many levels, this was a thoroughly enjoyable show!
