Dressed in early American costumes, the group connects their music with a story representing American church and family life circa 1825. The only performing group to include some Amish tunes in their program, The Foresingers primarily use music from the 1804 Gesangbuch, a Mennonite hymnal. This concert should be of special interest to those interested in the culture of Grantsville and its surroundings, and has delighted audiences throughout eastern Pennsylvania.
