Authentic
Colonial Music at Little Brown Church

Weds, Aug 9 at 7:30, at the Little Brown Church in Round Pond, Poor Richard's Penny will perform music from the time of our nations inception. With dynamic and colorful arrangements, the duo covers a broad spectrum of the music popularly enjoyed during Benjamin Franklin's time. Dressed in authentic period costumes, playing stately instrumentals, comical tavern songs, lively dance tunes and colonial ballads, they entertain audiences both young and old.

Both musicians are multi-instrumentalists. Kevin Skorupa
(whistles, flute, cittern, guitar, percussion, and vocals) studied music composition at Berklee College of Music.He has developed several programs for children which incorporate songs and stories dealing with nature and the seasonal changes.Lawrence Young (fiddle, English guitar, mandolin, and vocals) studied violin with Andrew Jennings and composition with John Appleton at Dartmouth College. He has also studied at Berklee School of Music with Matt Glaser and at the Longy School of Music with Wolfgang Schocken.

The duo have been performing together for over twenty
years, engaging their listeners with delightful instrumentals and rousing sing~alongs. Poor Richard's Penny has performed in many historic settings such as Boston Old North Church, Faneuil Hall, King's Chapel,The
Massachusetts State House, Longfellow's Wayside Inn, Blanchard's Tavern, and historical societies and in schools.

Poor Richard's Penny brings 18th century American music alive in a manner that not only does honor to its traditions, but also recognizes both its historical fascination and its contemporary appeal. These musicians have realized the very spirit of these songs and tunes.
