Make a WISE Gift
Great words often convey important feelings to others when writing about war, economic hardship, social injustice, or the condition of our personal relationships. When those words are put to music, their meaning is often enhanced; couple that with a great performance, and the message and feelings can be timeless. This course will examine many great songs and performances that meet these criteria. In the five weeks, we will cover anti-war songs, protest songs about social and economic injustice, songs about human relationships and songs about love and brotherhood.
