Join several costumed interpreters on a day of frivolity as they explore how Virginians of the 17th and 18th centuries experienced music in their daily lives.
These experts will demonstrate for you how the Powhatan Indians, English colonial settlers, and Virginians up to the American Revolution heard, played, and created a musical world around themselves. Come see demonstrations of period music and try your hand at instruments from the time to see if you would have what it takes to play music in colonial Virginia.
