"Music of the Civil War"
Thursday - April 21, 2016
1:30 - 3:00 PM
$10
OASIS
Third Floor of Macy's Mission Valley
(facing Highway-8)
1702 Camino Del Rio North
San Diego, CA
619 881-6262
Come see why they call this "Our nation’s most musical war!”
Few who are familiar with the terrible tragedy of the Civil War would be inclined to equate it with anything positive - yet that conflict has been identified, by some, as our nation’s “most musical war.” Beautiful melodies were written in the 1800s. Thousands of poems were written during the same time period and many of those poems became songs. And then there are Stephen Foster’s contributions! Trails & Rails brings you this music along with background on the creation of these songs - many of which we still sing - including one that remains quite popular, even though controversial. Let’s explore this treasure of our heritage with T&R. You might even feel inspired to sing a bit yourself!
