SUMMARY:Made to Last: The Songs We Sing
DESCRIPTION:What do the songs we sing tell us about cultural memory? What are the songs that have been sung in Connecticut for centuries\, and what are the songs that have arrived more recently? In what ways do singing our songs make us rebellious? In this conversation\, folklorist and Derek Piotr will share his work collecting over 1\,500 audio recordings worldwide that preserve ballads\, hymns\, tales\, poems\, children’s songs\, and interviews from the “non-singer”: someone with no background in musical performance who can nevertheless relate a song or folkloric memory. \nJoin us to hear the voices of Connecticut residents who have contributed to the archive\, explore the fascinating musical legacies present in our state\, and learn how to get involved as well! Check out the archive ahead of time at fieldwork-archive.com. \nSpace is limited! Get free tickets to reserve your spot: GET TICKETS\nThis program is generously supported by the Auerbach Schiro Foundation.
