In honor of the country’s 250th anniversary, Karen and Matthew will lead you on a musical tour of early New England performed on period instruments. They’ll trace a lineage from the eve of the Revolution to eventual victory at Yorktown through songs of liberty, rants against taxation and tyranny, wartime laments, and some of George Washington’s favorite dance tunes. You’ll hear quotes from 18th-c. writers and even sing along with tunes ranging from the battlefield to the ballroom!
