Stephen Foster Award
Stephen Foster Award
Our group has on occasion, awarded the Stephen Foster Award to a group or musician keeping alive mid-nineteenth century music in its purest state, with the instruments, lyrics, and style.
In 2004, the 2nd South Carolina String Band was awarded this accolade at Gordon College, and performed for a memorable evening of Civil War music.
For those not familiar, our own Tom DiGiuseppe was a meber of this band and sent us a link to post from that special night 19 years ago.
