SUMMARY:Winter Solstice Night at the Museum & Revels' Headgear Gallery Performance (2011)
DESCRIPTION:<p></p><p><span>A celebration of the winter solstice during extended hours at the museum. In collaboration with </span><a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130304070238/http://www.revels.org/" target="_blank">The Christmas Revels</a><span>, the Pinewoods Morris Men performed the traditional Abbots Bromley Horn Dance in the museum's <a href="internal:/headgear-natural-history-horns-and-antlers" data-url="http://hwpi.harvard.edu/hmnh/headgear-natural-history-horns-and-antlers">Headgear: The Natural History of Horns and Antlers <span>gallery</span></a></span><span>. The horn dance is the oldest known English ritual dance and features six human 'deer' with antlers weaving in and out in a hypnotic pattern to the sound of a haunting melody. Revels Artistic Director Patrick Swanson introduced the performance and David Coffin, a versatile musician and featured performer in his 32nd year with Revels, demonstrated horn-based musical instruments such as the gemshorns, the Pibcorn, and his ivory sopranino recorder</span></p>
