Join us for the first presentation, by musicologist Sarah Eyerly, in our First Thursdays 2019-2020 Series on Colonial Sounds: The Influence of Native and Spanish Music on America.
On September 5th, FSU musicologist Sarah Eyerly will explore the history of Spanish and Apalachee musical traditions at Mission San Luis. She will offer new insights into methods for resounding and repatriating the intangible cultural heritage of this complex and important historical site. Through historically informed recreations of the soundscapes of Mission San Luis, Dr. Eyerly will demonstrate how sounds—musical and non-musical, human and non-human—shaped daily life and religious culture for Spanish and Apalachee people living at the Mission.
