Description

For many New Yorkers of a certain age, mention of Lewisohn Stadium conjures fond memories of concerts of beautiful music performed on warm summer evenings outdoors. Music for the American People brings back those memories while introducing them to those who are either too young to remember or born years after the Stadium's razing in 1973.
