COUNTRY MUSIC
AND
POETRY
Make sure you schedule into your schedule Ken Burns’ next
documentary. It’s on Country Music.
It begins on September 15, 2019.
It will be 8 sessions - taking 16 and ½ hours.
I don’t know about you, but I like songs that I can hear the
words.
I’ve been on many high school retreats - during which they
played high school kids music. Not my
world. Not my words.
I can’t sing - but I do love poetry - so songs that allow me
to hear the words - hear a story - get a message - are my world.
So check out Ken Burns’ documentary on Country Music and
hear him get into memories and stories - the stuff of life - like his
documentaries on the Civil War, Baseball, Jazz, The National Parks, etc.
Country Music tells us so much - especially through music. If you don’t believe me check out the documentary on this particular blog piece on the musical trio: Dolly, Linda and Emmylou.

It's poetry and sound in motion!

If one wants to know what the angels sound like when they sing, they need only listen to Dolly, Linda, and Emmy Lou singing together! The best!
