The song written in 1927 by Harry Woods goes, “Oh, we ain’t got a barrel of money / Maybe we’re ragged and funny / But we’ll travel along / Singing a song / Side by side.” “Side By Side” is also the title of a new music series presented across Atlanta by Neranenah, formerly known as the Atlanta Jewish Music Festival.
Pianist Joe Alterman is the executive director of Neranenah, and he joined “City Lights” host Lois Reitzes via Zoom along with the father-and-son music duo of Ben and Leo Sidran. The pair will perform at the Atlanta History Center on Aug. 25, and they shared in a conversation with Alterman about the new music series ahead of their show.
