Mark Twain's America: A Centennial Tribute, with Jacqueline Schwab

Join us for Mark Twain's America: A Centennial Tribute, featuring Jacqueline Schwab on solo piano. In Ken Burns' words, "Jacqueline Schwab brings more feeling and intensity to music than anyone I know. Her playing is insistent, physical, heartfelt and ... unusually moving." Drawing on classical, traditional folk and contemporary music roots, Jacqueline Schwab has been heard on a dozen of Burns' documentaries, including his Grammy award-winning Civil War, his Emmy award-winning Baseball, Thomas Jefferson, Frank Lloyd Wright, Lewis and Clark, Mark Twain, The War and The National Parks: America's Best Idea. In this Mark Twain centennial year, Jacqueline's Homegrown evening will feature her arrangements of vintage American music from Twain's era (1835-1910) and beyond—Stephen Foster and Civil War song tunes, Victorian ballroom dance tunes, Scots and Irish songs and dance tunes brought over by settlers, hymns and spirituals, ragtime, plus 20th-century tango and Billie Holiday blues.
