A FIRE IN MY SOUL:
American Sacred Folk Music of the 18th & 19th Centuries
June 13 & 14 in West Seattle

The sacred expressions of Appalachian folk hymns and spirituals have moved generations of Americans, weaving musical tapestries of our early ancestors’ lives. Experience the passionate and powerful music of a people who fervently believed in a joyous, heavenly afterlife as an end to their trials and tribulations; a people who longed for the ultimate, ecstatic reunion with the divine. You won’t want to miss this stirring a cappella program! (And send us off on our concert tour as we bring this moving program to Italy and Slovenia this summer!)

We recommend this program for ages 12 and older.
