Charlie Zahm "Jacobite Risings in Song & Story" Concert in Derry, NH

Charlie Zahm returns to Derry, NH for a special evening of great songs and stories from across the Celtic Lands! Set 1: One of Charlie's great musical and historical passions concerns the Scottish Jacobite Risings---"I will share the fate o' my Prince, and so shall every man over whom God and Nature has given me power!" Sit back and enjoy the Scottish Jacobite experience, which actually begins with the abdication of James VII/II and the invasion of the Dutch Prince William of Orange in 1688, and hear the spirited songs which help to illustrate the period of the exiled Stuarts and the many attempts by the loyal Highlanders to help them regain their throne. After "The 45", life in the Highlands changed, and changed utterly the landscape created by the government destruction on all things Highland is still visible to this very day. It is a story that has to be told, and I hope you can be there! Set 2: a wide variety of great traditional songs of the sea, you'll know some and I'll hope you'll sing along, some are fantastic Sea stories and you will love them!! Proceeds of this concert are to benefit the mission outreach of St. Luke's UMC. Hope to see you there! info: CameronBrosNH@gmail.com
