Carolina Jamboree : Tonight at 8pm on PBS

Transport yourself back in time when friends and neighbors gathered for a festival of music, song and dance. Fiddles and banjos, pennywhistles and piano all set the mood for stories of love and marriage, passion and mystery. In a unique, three-way partnership, Tony-winning string band The Red Clay Ramblers and Tony Award-nominated resident choreographer Lynne Taylor-Corbett team up with Carolina Ballet to create a thrilling music and dance experience.

North Carolina's history is rich with stories of intrigue and passion, gut-wrenching struggle and the triumph of the spirit over staggering odds. The music of our region--old-time mountain music, country, bluegrass, Piedmont blues and jazz--gives a powerful aural history of generations of Carolinians, from the Appalachian Mountains to the Outer Banks.
