Packed House for Music at the Museum

Ricky Cox was in fine form and voice for the March 16 Music at the Museum event. His ballads and folk songs were mixed with information about the song form and origins, as well as some very good jokes. What started to be a 60 minute program ran to close to two hours as a most appreciative audience laughed, sighed, and applauded as he sang and introduced instruments from the fiddle and banjo to the guitar. Finally, Ricky was exhausted, and the audience reluctantly let him off the hook and went off to enjoy punch and cookies. It was a splendid afternoon in the newly reorganized museum. More Music at the Museum events are planned.
