Bringing Early Music to Life in the Bluegrass


In Case You Missed It: "A Handeful of Christmas Delights: Music from Appalachia and the American South"
Hello, friends and supporters! We hope you all had a wonderful holiday, filled with warmth and joy. As we batten down the hatches and prepare for a winter storm, we revisit the most recent performance by Musick's Company: "A Handeful of Christmas Delights: Music from Appalachia and the American South". Cozy up with a cup of warm cocoa and a fuzzy blanket as we take you through our program and reminisce.
