Troubadour Robb Goldstein will perform songs of the sea during an hour-long musical program that will include literal ballads from the 1930s and 1940s that came from traditional 19th century tunes to phantasmagoric songs from the more political era of the 1960s and 1970s. Goldstein has long been recognized as a leader on the songs of the sea. His childhood years on Nantucket led to his extensive research into the old logs and diaries as his friendships with the last of the iron-men led to a deeply personal understanding of nautical balladry. The program is designed for easy adaptation to all levels from 4th graders to elders. This free musical performance will be held in the Block Gallery.
Admission is free.
