JostenLive! Presents Songs from the Living Tradition
Friday, December 1, 2023
5 p.m.
Josten Library Mezzanine
Laurie Tupper and Micah Walter sing a living tradition of Anglo-American folksong—songs from centuries ago, and originals that nearly sound as old. The words are secular, sacred and anything in between. They sing most often with unaccompanied voices: lyrical, archaic melodies with gentle yet striking harmonies. “Down to the River to Pray” (sung by Alison Krauss in O Brother, Where Art Thou?) suggests their repertoire and style. JostenLive! is a community-based performance series that brings the creative work of library users to the Josten Mezzanine. Always free, brief, and open to all.
