JACKSONVILLE — Whitingham Free Public Library welcomes Celtic musician Jeff Snow, who returns on Sunday, Nov. 21, at 2 p.m. for some holiday cheer and Celtic Christmas music.
Snow, a talented multi-instrumentalist, shares the music - and the stories behind the music - of Scotland, Ireland, and England.
In concert, he plays the guitar, autoharp, and bouzouki. Growing up in a home where old Scottish folk songs were the everyday sounds, Snow says he developed an early love for Celtic music.
“Much of the history of these lands was preserved in song,” organizers of the event observe in a news release. “You will see singing, laughing, lots of smiles, and perhaps a few tears, as listeners travel through time.”
According to the library, Snow's music “has been described as 'quiet and relaxing.' Much of it is, but every once in a while, he breaks out and the foot stomping begins. Each concert is a wee bit different and adapted to the response and interest of the audience.”
The library is in the Whitingham Municipal Center on Route 100 in Jacksonville. For more information about the show, call 802-368-7506.
