“Profoundly talented musicians interacting in profoundly interesting ways.”—Mix FM
Don't miss a rollicking collaborative concert with world-famous, 16-time Grammy-winning banjoist Béla Fleck and Brooklyn Rider, "one of the wonders of contemporary music" (NPR). Slipping seamlessly between bluegrass, jazz and classical, this quintet's distinctive sound can't be defined.
Program to include:
Fleck: Night Flight Over Water I. Tumbledown Creek II. Hunter’s Moon III. The Escape Fleck: The Landing Fleck: Griff Fleck: Next Colin Jacobsen: Brooklesca
“A true musical polymath, Béla has garnered Grammy nominations in nine categories, managing to weave his humble instrument convincingly into every type of musical fabric. Brooklyn Rider is a charismatic string quartet that also delights in mash-ups of every description.”
“[A] cross-pollination of musical ideas, stretching from avant-garde America to Romanian Gypsy music, to Ireland and South America … it formed a unique, eminently listenable bond.”
