Oxford Library Remembers the Titanic
The Oxford Public Library is marking the 100-year anniversary of the Titanic sinking on April 15, 1912 with a display of a Titanic model and books, and a fantastic musical program. Join us from 6:30-7:30pm on Tuesday, April 3rd to hear the well-known musical duo, “Two of Us” (Willie Nininger and Jan Scruggs) perform songs that will bring back fond memories - if you remember the days of the Titanic. In addition to songs popular during the era of the sinking of the Titanic, the duo will perform numbers with a general nautical theme and a variety of other material by songwriters such as Gordon Lightfoot, Cat Stevens and Willie himself. Willie Nininger is an entertaining and versatile Singer-Songwriter-Guitarist, well known for his extensive repertoire, spontaneous sense of humor and flat-picking guitar technique. Willie plays in clubs and concerts across the US and Europe. While living in Switzerland he won the national “Entertainer of the Year” award. He has written songs for the “Captain Kangaroo Show” and kids’ TV “After School Specials” and has appeared on TV variety shows. He performs the National Anthem for the NY Mets annually. Jan Scruggs, a lover of harmony, plays the guitar and performs with Willie, and his band, up and down the east coast and in England. In addition to their Famous Duets act, she and Willie perform special shows ranging from Tropical, Irish, Holiday and Country to Doo Wop, TV and Movie themes.
