Country music is among the most popular of American art forms, and its cultural appeal is greater now than ever. Through performance, demonstration and discussion with country music Grammy winner Jerry Douglas and musicians Bryan Sutton, Dudley Connell, Sally Love, and Marshall Wilborn, students learn about the history, the styles, and the traditions of this truly American music. Joe Wilson, country music historian, moderates the program (recorded in April 2006 at C. D. Hylton High School in Woodbridge, VA).
