Another Grammy winner, Neil Rosenberg, an author and folklorist, will also participate. Sponsors include the Office for the Arts at Harvard, the Folklore and Mythology Program, and the Harvard College American Music Association, a student group dedicated to American “roots” music founded by Forrest O’Connor ’10.
