Musical Scheduled At Tech Cleveland Technical Col- lege will sponsor folk artists Tom Bledscoe and Rick Kir- by, from Dungannon, Va., in an original musical play, “Been A Long Time Travel- ing,” on Thursday, August 8 at 7:30 p.m. in the college auditorium. Over the past 12 years Bledscoe and Kirby have built up a reputation as among the country’s leading performers of music and tales from the southern mountains. Masterful musi- cianship and storytelling skills combined with deep knowledge of traditional music give them the tools to bring to life the history of the mountains in the musical play. The southern mountains have been home to many groups of people over the past two centuries: Indians, set- tlers, blacks, miners and millhands. Everyone who has lived there has been pro- foundly affected by the ex- erience. The concept of ‘home”’ -- making one, losing it or struggling to keep it --runs through mountain culture from the earliest days to the present. ‘“‘Been A Long Time Traveling’ uses these songs and stories, mostly tradi- tional, to recount the history of mountain people. In the first act Bledscoe and Kirby create two characters from the days of a century ago. In the second act they appear as themselves and carry the story up to the present. On another level, the show explores the connection bet- ween music and people’s lives. Music and storytelling have always been a vital form of self-expression in the mountains, and every event in mountain history has left traces in music and tales. ‘Been A Long Time Travel- | ing” shows why people wirte music, remember it and pass it on to others. Bledscoe and Kirby have been immersed in mountain music and stories from their earliest days in ‘musical families. They began their performing career in 1974. In the ensuing years they have appeared in programs from New York’s Lincoln Center to clubs and auditoriums across the nation. This event, free and open to the public, is made possible by a grant from the Grassroots Program of the NC Arts Council and is spon- sored by the CTC Slightly Off Center Stage Players and the Visiting Artists Program.
