Pianist Jacqueline Schwab is delighted to share her “I Lift My Lamp” program with Music Mondays. Jacqueline spins musical stories out of the multicultural strands in the American quilt. As the United States engages in difficult discussions about immigration and cultural diversity, I Lift My Lamp celebrates songs and dances from American immigrants. Inspired by Jacqueline’s childhood years in vibrant, multicultural Pittsburgh and her work with documentary filmmaker Ken Burns, her performance will highlight music from Western and Eastern Europe and the Caribbean and South America, as well as African American spirituals and ragtime.
