COME AND ENJOY  A GREAT TALK BY MARK A. GREENBERG titled
 “Kitchen Tunks and Parlor Songs” - Vermont Oral History and Parlor Songs

In the 1980’s Mr. Greenberg interviewed and recorded old-time, grassroots Vermont musicians and produced both a video documentary, The Unbroken Circle (1985) and a CD anthology, Kitchen Tunks and Parlor Songs (2003). In this presentation, he discusses collecting oral histories in Vermont and examines how earlier music survived in the 20th century and how it was affected by social and technological developments.

This talk is free, open to the public, and accessible to those with disabilities. For more information, contact the Isle La Motte Historical Society at (802) 928-3392.

Kitchen Tunks and Parlor Songs is a Vermont Humanities Council program hosted by the Isle La Motte Historical Society. (Supported in part by the National Endowment for the Humanities.
