Summary

ÒOne of my mentors, the incredible Joe Thompson, taught me this piece. Joe himself was one of the best instruments of peace that IÕve ever known: he would play banjo with anyone at any time and was happy to teach anybody music Ð black, white, it didnÕt matter. What better song to play when I think about peace than Lights in the Valley?Ó by Rhiannon Giddens, Performing Arts, USA / Greensboro, NC, Day 84 / October 12, 2020.
