Show Notes
In this week's show, we look at a national park site that celebrates distinctly American music -- the Blue Ridge Music Center near Galax, Virginia. Traveler's Lynn Riddick visits with Richard Emmett, director of the center, to find out what's happening in the interpretation, presentation, and promotion of traditional American mountain music. We'll kick it off with a clip from the Chatham Rabbits, who recently performed at the center.
