Jim Weiss teams up with Carol next week for a live presentation: Going West in the USA, featuring “Fulton’s Steamboat” and “The Railroad Men.” Adults and children as young as 7 will find these stories entertaining and educational.
The art of storytelling and music have much in common. Jim frequently incorporates music in his stories, and says, “As a musician myself, I think constantly in musical terms when I write, and perform, spoken word.” History is taught in stories as well. And our American musical heritage captures the story of America Going West in another form, as Carol will explain.
So the session will present a combination of storytelling, music, and history. We are looking forward to the dynamic combination of Carol and Jim, and this should be particularly useful for those of you who are now teaching at home.
