History Of Sound

About this event

In 1917, Lionel – a young, talented music student – meets David at the Boston Conservatory, where they bond over a deep love of folk music. Years later, a letter from David leads to an impromptu journey through the backwoods of Maine archiving traditional songs. Their reunion shapes Lionel’s life far beyond his own awareness.
