An American Tune
8pm March 21, 2015
Nordstrom Recital Hall

at 7pm Stephen Stubbs will conduct a pre-concert chat with American Music Specialist and UW Professor Larry Starr.

There is a growing awareness among early music performers in this country that we may be able to apply our viewpoint - taking earlier European music seriously on its own terms and in its original state - to the vast subject of America’s own musical history. This program takes the era and music of Stephen Foster as our point of departure for a new musical adventure. All of these performers have grown up with one foot in the early music camp and one in some form of American traditions. Come and find out if we can walk with both feet!

Artistic Director Stephen Stubbs will be playing an original 19^th century guitar with soprano Catherine Webster; Tekla Cunningham and Brandon Vance, violins, Tom Berghan, banjo and John Reischman, mandolin.
