The Little Octoroon
Manage episode 424436822 series 1254967
For Juneteenth, a song from the 1860s written by George F. Root, a white songwriter, depicting an enslaved mother sending her child to the Union lines alone for freedom. I revised Root's melody a bit and performed it for today's holiday.
The Parlando Project takes various words (mostly literary poetry) and usually combines them with original music. You can find more than 750 of them at our blog and archives located at frankhudson.org
