Songs from some of the many excellent performers at New Bedford's Summerfest 2008. As ever, the heart of the festival is the workshops which pitch disparate genre musicians into an often unique creative performance in which they imaginatively delve into their repertoire in service of the workshop title which this year included such titles as "With Clay From Flanders Field: songs of history" and "Mine Is The Morning: music to start the day"!
