Bill Cohen Returns to In-Person Concerts With Unique New Theme: Time and Memory
Time. It’s nearly impossible to define. We cannot control it. But we treasure it. We seek it. Yet, sometimes, we waste it, kill it, and ignore it. Memories of past times can comfort us or haunt us.
The mysterious intertwining of time and memory is the theme of Bill Cohen’s all-new concert, taking place in-person April 2 at 7 pm at the First Unitarian Church of Columbus, 93 W. Weisheimer Road.
He’ll sing songs from the 1940s, 50s, 60s, 70s, and 80s that remind us of time’s unique qualities. Songs made famous by a wide variety of performers: John Denver, the Beatles, Bing Crosby, Carly Simon, Kenny Rogers, the Judds, the Byrds, Bob Seger, Pete Seeger, Phil Ochs, and others.
Beautiful vocal harmonies and instrumental backup will be added by veteran Columbus musicians Joanne Blum and Joe Lambert.
We’ll also hear inspiring sayings about time and memory, plus fun trivia questions about songs that focus on memories and the fleeting nature of time.
Admission to the concert is free. Donations will be welcomed for The Alzheimer’s Association of Central Ohio. Please bring a mask, in case a church rule requiring masking is still in effect.
