SUMMARY:Ron Ramsay's Berkshire Music Salon Series presents Voices of Valor: Songs & Stories from the Front\, featuring Samantha Talora
DESCRIPTION:Join us this Veterans Day for a moving performance by Ron Ramsay’s Berkshire Music Salon Series featuring vocalist Samantha Talora! \nFrom the Drawing Room of The Mount\, Voices of Valor: Songs & Stories from the Front honors the legacy of World War I through a live performance of music that inspired courage\, unity\, and hope. American and French melodies from the Great War will be woven together with stories of Edith Wharton’s own humanitarian work on the front lines in France. Presented by Ron Ramsay’s Berkshire Music Salon Series\, this unforgettable musical tribute celebrates veterans\, humanitarians\, and the enduring resilience of the human spirit. \n*Please note that there will be two performances of Voices of Valor\, the first at 3:00 pm and the second at 5:00 pm!*  The evening performance includes a complimentary post-show reception with festive drinks and bites. \nMany readers of Edith Wharton don’t realize how active she was in World War I relief efforts. She founded and administered three separate organizations that cumulatively provided aid to some 10\,000 displaced persons in France over a period of five years\, and she organized the shipment of blankets\, clothing\, and other essentials to soldiers at the front. Read more about this history and access her short story\, Son at the Front (1923)\, in this Library of America Story of the Week. \nRon Ramsay & Samantha Talora have been blending their voices in harmony since 2014\, bringing an exhilarating vocal tour de force to audiences throughout the northeast. Launched in 2025\, Ron Ramsay’s Berkshire Music Salon Series is an ongoing series dedicated to and inspired by Ron’s lifelong friend and mentor\, the late great Berkshire socialite\, singer\, and entrepreneur Stephanie Barber\, founder of The Music Inn and owner of the Gilded Age cottage\, Wheatleigh. Together\, Ron and Stephanie performed and sang the great songs of the American Songbook\, French and German cabaret\, and the music of their many famous composer friends throughout Berkshire County.
