National Heritage Fellowship Concert and Celebration

Live from the Nation’s Capital, it’s the 2009 National Heritage Fellowship Concert. Each year, the National Endowment for the Arts recognizes citizens for their contributions to our nation’s traditional arts. We’ll hear from this year’s honorees, including zydeco’s Queen Ida, the gospel group The Birmingham Sunlights and Puerto Rican cuatro genius Edwin Colon Zayas. Plus visits with an array of previous National Heritage Fellows, from B.B. King to Earl Scruggs.
