This year’s festival of “Sounds Around Blue Hill” will feature the renowned folksinger Noel Paul Stookey, the “Paul” of Peter, Paul and Mary. In addition, the acclaimed dance theater company Alison Chase/Performance will present a new dance work set to an original score composed and performed by Grammy Award-winning Maine composer and pianist Paul Sullivan.

And the Bagaduce Pops Singers, under the direction of Bronwyn Kortge, will end the program with a choral medley from the Pulitzer Prize-winning Broadway show “Rent”.
