Composer/guitarist Jim Scott, who knew Pete Seeger well and collaborated on many projects with the folk legend, will lead the audience singing many of his well-loved songs.
Pete Seeger called Jim Scott “Some kind of a magician” for his lyrical melodies, well-crafted words and guitar mastery. Known to many as guitarist with the Paul Winter Consort and co-composer of their celebrated “Missa Gaia/Earth Mass,” Jim has created 9 albums of original music, many choral works, film and TV soundtracks, a guitar technique book, and a collection of short stories and poetry.
Jim will lead the audience in singing many of Pete Seeger’s well-loved songs such as If I Had a Hammer, Turn, Turn, Turn, Where Have All the Flowers Gone and many others. Along with some history from Jim, we’ll raise our voices for the causes Pete championed and remember the great contributions to our American heritage Pete made in his 94 years of life. A reception at 5:15 PM precedes the 6 PM concert.
Admission is by donation, $10-20 is recommended.
