What songs did you learn as a child that were so important in your life that you want them handed down to your children and grandchildren? Jim Heiks, associate professor of music, will discuss his work with composer Alice Parker on the power of melody, which has resulted in the publication of the Hand Me Down Songbook. A group of young singers from Diane Hertzler's Shout for Joy Choir accompanied by Les Gustafson-Zook on folk instruments will perform some of the songs in the book, and will share the adventure they had making the recording of the book for GIA Publications.
