From sing-alongs to lilting ballads to songs sure to tickle your funny bone, folksinger Anna Stange is an entertaining and engaging performer. Delivering upbeat renditions of old favorite songs in the true folk tradition, such as "Jenny Jenkins", 'Old Ground Hog", and "Goodnight, Irene", Anna appeals to audiences of all ages. Her children's programs are popular with kids and their parents and she performs at festivals and concerts for young people across the country.
Anna accompanies herself on the guitar and banjo. She also uses simple folk instruments (spoons, shakers, drums, etc.) along with the mandolin and mountain dulcimer in her workshops and performances. Anna performs at various venues including festivals, coffeehouses, community events, libraries, concerts, and senior citizen centers. She has a degree in Elementary Education, and has been recognized for her outstanding children's programs. Anna is a member of the Children's Music Network and gives workshops to teachers and parents on how to provide successful children's music education.
Using materials she's learned along her travels abroad (Africa, Europe, Canada, Mexico, Caribbean), along the Appalachian Trail and across the United States, to a broad range of material from Leadbelly, Pete Seeger and Mississippi John Hurt, and songs in the bluegrass tradition, Anna offers multicultural programs for children to encourage an appreciation for the cultural roots of music. She often invites children to participate on-stage and shares her extensive collection of instruments from various parts of the world.
In June, 2000, Anna released her first CD, A Family Album, which is played on radio stations across the nation. Anna's spirited interpretations of folk music appeal across cultures, regions and generations. She followed this up with a 2002 recording for children: Miss Anna's Music Class, a pre-primer for little folkies. Both recordings are available by mail order, at her shows or in select record and bookstores, and on the web at CDBaby.com..
