Seminar with Music: Sea Chanteys with Sean and Deirdre Murtha

Wednesday, April 23 @ 7:30 PM - 9:00 PM

Voyage with the Cruising Committee which sponsors this unique hour of history and song!

A sea chantey (or shanty) is a genre of traditional folk music that was once common among sailors of large merchant ships of the 1800s. These songs helped rhythmically synchronize and optimize labor on large vessels with small crews and strict schedules. 

Sean and Deirdre Murtha will perform a variety of folk music including Irish, Appalachian, and maritime music at 7:30pm.

Food/beverage service information TBD.
