The Unitarian Universalist Church of Canandaigua (3024 Cooley Road) will host Jim Scott, composer and musical activist for their Service on Sunday, August 28 10 am. For more than three decades, Jim Scott has made it his business to create and perform music that celebrates the earth. His songs and poetry have inspired and educated audiences around the world. He has crafted songs that sensitize his listeners to the beauty of the earth, teaching principles of ecology in memorable verses. He was educated at the Eastman School of Music in Rochester and has toured with Pete Seeger.
Jim Scott’s family oriented show will include music and banter from the days of performing with Pete Seeger: memorable times for all of us. He will sing songs and arrangements from his own writing. Kids love his Rainforest song and others that let everyone participate. In between the music Scott tells stories from Seeger and about his own music.
