Henry Barnes and Susie Goehring will perform a 45 minute set of music that is from Ohio and regions along tributaries to the Ohio River that significantly contributed to the social and economic culture of Ohio. Musicians represented in the performance include those of the 78rpm Era to extant musicians still living in Ohio. This is intended to provide a comparative educational experience for a region of the United States who’s music does not often receive extensive focus.
