Fort Donelson Presents: Bobby Horton Live!

<p>Bobby Horton's musical program highlights the role of songs in early American history, emphasizing how music served as a cultural, motivational, and unifying force during the nation’s founding era. It explains that from the 1760s through the Revolutionary War, colonists used music to express their hopes, struggles, victories, and evolving identity as they fought for independence. The selected songs—ranging from patriotic anthems to humorous tunes and popular melodies of the time—offer insight into the sentiments of the people who shaped the United States. The purpose of the program is to present these historically significant pieces in a way that both entertains and deepens public understanding of the nation’s origins.</p>
