Member-only story
by Chloe Smith
I made a playlist for Fourth of July weekend that features all American composers and song-writers. This playlist pulls from some of my favorite genres: folk, jazz, and American classical music.
Pulling together a playlist of American music that sounds totally cohesive is a difficult task, so I didn’t attempt that, instead opting for broad genre groupings (admittedly, even those are pretty fuzzy). Hope you enjoy and learn some new music. Feel free to share any favorites I missed!
A note, the title of the playlist is from a favorite Walt Whitman poem of the same name.
