SUMMARY:"Beyond a Simple Folk Song" Concert 2026
DESCRIPTION:Saturday\, July 25th at the Redeemer Church\, 90 Route 32 south\, in New Paltz.\nShow begins at 7pm\, with doors opening at 6:30.\nAdmission is $20 at the door\, with a discount for members\, $15.\n\nThis year\, Beyond A Simple Folk Song will be commemorating and celebrating Hudson Valley and Catskills history with songs in coordination with America’s 250th birthday.   The six local songwriters\, Bill Buttner\, Kurt Henry & Cheryl Lambert\, Lisa Markley\, Fran Palmieri\, Dorraine Schofield\, and Sharon Klein\, will be tasked with writing 3 songs with historical themes such as: \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe burning of Kingston\nStories about indigenous people\, the Esopus and Lenape.\nThe legacy of Sojourner Truth\nThe legend of Rip Van Winkle\n(In)famous murders in the Hudson Valley\nStories of the Albany Post Road\nThe Rosendale cement mines\nImmigrant stories; Kingston in the industrial age\nStories of the D&H canal\nStories of who is buried in the Kingston African burial ground\nHenry Hudon’s trip up the river that bears his name\nHudson Valley railroad history\nThe building of the Ashokan reservoir to supply NYC with water\nFDR and Elenor\, our most famous couple\nThe Clearwater and the legacy of Pete Seeger\nThe spectacular return of the bald eagle\nHudson Valley farmers (12th generation Kelder/Osterhaut\, Davenport\, etc.)\nThe Gilded Age in the Hudson Valley\nHaunted and abandoned houses and buildings (Overlook Mountain house\, Bannerman Island)\nIce boating on the Hudson\nThe ice industry and ice houses.\n\n\n\n\n\nThe performance will be done “in the round”\, with collaborations between the songwriters encouraged.  Three performers will be playing in each of the 2 sets\, with a 15-20 minute intermission.  This format is sure to create an intimate\, magical setting reminiscent of a traditional “house concert” or “salon.”  Kevin Becker will be presenting 2 instrumental pieces he has composed\, after the intermission and before the next round.   What makes these pieces special is that the melodies are derived from five songs written by four distinct HVFG songwriters from across our 47 year history.
