newest location, 5501 Jefferson, Midland, MI 48640. </div><p>Bay City native Andrew Maxson opens the concert sharing music of the
ancient oud, an Arabic lute. Andrew has been studying the oud since 2019
as a student of Ramy Adly at the School of Oud Online. The curriculum
was established by Naseer Shamma, a UNESCO Artist for Peace and founder
of the Arabic Oud House in Egypt. Andrew will perform a repertoire from
Naseer Shama, vintage Egypitan hits, and original pieces. </p><p>Ben Traverse, also of Michigan, will be accompanied by Josh Holcomb,
Vince Russo, and Carsten Forester, to perform traditional folk music.
These young musicians have been performing on stages across the state
over the last decade. Ben began releasing recordings in 2021 as part of
the Earthwork Music Collective, using traditional music as a vehicle for
education, equity, and environmental action. Steeped in the history of
the music as much as the music itself, Ben will offer an entertaining
sample of Traditional American Folk Music, complete with stories behind
the tunes. To learn more and listen to their work, visit the website
bentraversemusic.com </p><p>Admission to the concert is $10 per person for Midland Folk Music
Society members, $15 per Non-Member. Open to the public. Memberships
available at the door. More information at www.folkmusicsociety.org </p><p>This concert is brought to you by the Midland Folk Music Society with
grant support from the Rollin M. Gerstacker Foundation and is a
collaboration with Creative 360.
