KEYWORDS

Songs evoke memories of special times and places. Wendy leads the audience on a “sentimental journey” covering a hit parade of tunes from the early 1900’s right up to the present. Historical and political events, fashions, social customs and changing attitudes are viewed through the lens of popular music. Students may find some songs quaint or even corny, but they’ll leave understanding how music embodies and defines a particular moment in time.
