Italian Mandolin Heroes in America
Redwood Café
Sunday, March 4th, 2018 @ 5:00 pm
Sheri Mignano Crawford will present a series of slides all featured in her upcoming book covering Italian mandolin and accordion publishers in America. Many photographs and documents from the composers, musicians, and publishers will be seen for the first time ever. The story covers several decades (c. 1895-1960) and reveals how the dance repertoire evolved and merged in the bay area. This survey begins in Philadelphia, then Manhattan & Brooklyn, Providence, RI, and the trip across the US to the San Francisco bay area.
Admission is free.
