Kentucky Opera presents “We Sing America”, a program designed to help tell the history of America through traditional and patriotic songs. Though this program isn’t focused on African American heritage, it does help share American Heritage. Their program includes early ballads like “Barbara Allen” and also some toe tappers from later time periods such as “Boogie Woogie Bugle Boy” from the World War II era.
