A unique aspect of Earthtones is that historical/cultural context is provided as a part of the course content. Describe two ways that learning about the key historical events and cultural shifts that took place during the 1960s has helped to inform your understanding of how songs from the Woodstock Festival should be performed for our concert. Performance practices to be addressed may include singing styles, specific lyrics, stage movement, acting, dancing or other ideas that could potentially make our performance a powerful commemoration of the 400,000+ young people who gathered at this event for three days of music and peace. Responses should vary according to individual interests in the historical/cultural topics covered. A minimum of two songs should be referenced as examples.
