Sixteenth Abbeville Institute Summer School: Southern Identity Through Music

 

St Christopher Conference Center, July 15-20, 2018
Seabrook Island, South Carolina
Music has been described as “the soul of the world embedded in sound.” Southern music exemplifies the traditions and culture of its people “embedded in sound.” It sprang from the mud, the rivers, the forests, the fields, and the mountains. From the land and place, to religion, folk songs, poverty and defeat, a “new South” and an old culture, the South has a story to tell, and for most of her history, that story has been told through song.
