Enjoy an afternoon’s vocal and instrumental performance at Hartford’s Isham-Terry House by Andrew Wilcox (piano) and Mae Czuba (vocals) to hear the late-19th and early-20th century songs that would have filled the Ishams’ parlor, drawing upon the sheet music in the Isham-Terry collection and representing the lives and interests of the household’s amateur musicians. The performers will play music from the collection, and sheet music will be on display during the event! This event will be held on Sunday, November 10th from 2 pm-3 pm.
The artwork pictured is from the covers of the early 20th century sheet music from the Isham Family collection. “The Angle Worm Wiggle” cover features Sophie Tucker, known as “The Last of the Red-Hot Mamas,” who grew up in Hartford and paved the way for other female performers.
