Mūzikas Saknes - Musical Roots (Scott Brickman)
2024-02-01 18:00 - 19:30 | Acadian Archives, 23 University Dr, Fort Kent, ME, United States
The little-known country of Latvia, formerly part of the U.S.S.R., and along with Estonia and
Lithuania, one of the three Baltic States, is roughly the size of West Virginia and has slightly less
than 2 million people. Latvia has an incredibly rich and varied musical culture. During the
academic year 2022-23, Scott Brickman was on sabbatical, documenting, researching and participating in
Latvian musical culture. Come listen to Scott discuss his experiences in Latvia during his
sabbatical. He will, in his characteristic idiosyncratic and informal way, sing Latvian songs, talk
about his Latvian ancestry and transmit all that he can about the vibrant musical and cultural
life of this wonderful country.
This event is free and open to the public.
