Songs of the Revolution, in Woburn
Saturday, April 12, 2 pmThe Woburn Library commemorates the 250th anniversary of Woburn's Minutemen marching down Battle Road to Lexington. Diane presents songs from both sides of the conflict, many created to either promote rebellion or loyalty to the crown. She pays particular attention to the experiences of those often left out of the records, such as women and enslaved people. Marching tunes, passionate ballads, drinking songs, hymns, laments, and propaganda galore! Diane wears her open-front gown and plays authentic instruments.
