Big Top Chautauqua - We All Need Abraham Lincoln

Lincoln's Living Legacy: A Full Measure for the People Written by Bruce Burnside and performed by the Blue Canvas Orchestra from Big Top Chautauqua in Bayfield, Wisconsin.

Born in Galesburg, Illinois and raised in a little stagecoach and river stop village on route to Chicago, Bruce Burnside has listened to, read about and traced down Lincoln stories his entire life. For this 200th anniversary of Abraham Lincoln's birth Mr. Burnside has combined period music, original songs and melodies, historic visual images and remembrances into a portrait of the man Abraham Lincoln and the hopes and dreams his words and proclamations have birthed in the hearts of Americans.
