Stanley-Whitman House

Join historian and tenor Richard Franklin Donohue at Stanley-Whitman House for an intimate afternoon of live performance and the stories behind the songs. Spanning the tenth through nineteenth centuries, the program brings together familiar and lesser-known selections sung in their original languages: Basque, German, Latin, Middle English, French, and Modern English. Hear the expressive power of the unaccompanied voice alongside the distinctive sound of the harpsichord.
Through music and historical interpretation, Donohue traces the changing celebration of Christmas across generations. This program is supported in part by a generous gift from a friend of the museum.

Long before Halloween became a celebration of costumes, candy, and carved pumpkins, its story was taking shape in the ancient traditions of Ireland. Join lecturer Liz Hannan Kading for a fascinating journey through the history, folklore, and customs that helped shape one of America's most beloved holidays. Explore the mysterious harvest rituals of ancient Ireland, the transformation of seasonal observances through medieval Christianity, and the spirited traditions brought across the Atlantic by Irish immigrants during the nineteenth century.

This program is supported in part by a generous gift from a friend of the museum.
