Greetings:

WOODY REDISCOVERED is a musical exploration of Woody Guthrie's less known songs that Anne Price and I developed with the encouragement and support of the Woody Guthrie Foundation and Archives. We have already presented it eight times, in venues from Takoma Park, MD, up to Amherst, MA, and points in between. We will be presenting it next in New York City this coming fall. Here are the details:


Folk Music Society of New York, Inc.

WOODY REDISCOVERED
an Exploration of Woody Guthrie's Less Known Songs
with Anne Price and Steve Suffet

Sunday • September 30, 2007 • 4:00 to 6:00 PM
Upper West Side Manhattan location • New York City
Near Lincoln Center
Contribution: $13. FMSNY/Pinewoods members: $10.
Children: $6.

Seating limited to 25. Reservations required.
For reservations and location, e-mail or call 718-786-1533.


There are more than 3,000 songs in the Woody Guthrie Archives, and Woody recorded well over 300 of them. However, only about 30 are really well known today. In this workshop, Anne Price and I will introduce you to a few of Woody Guthrie's other 2,970+ songs. Some were recorded or published in Woody's own lifetime; others were discovered among his effects after his death. All deserve to be recognized as the gems that they are. We will have song sheets available, so come prepared to learn some new old songs!

Anne and I hope to meet some Mudcatters in NYC on September 30. If you are interested in having us present WOODY REDISCOVERED in your own town, please contact me by e-mail or phone.

Thanks.
