Playing on historical instruments, the ensemble traces the roots of Appalachian music to the Irish and Scottish immigrants who crossed the Atlantic, bringing their ballads, jigs, and reels with them. Apollos Fire has performed at Carnegie Hall, the BBC Proms, and major stages around the world — including concerts of ancient Celtic music at the Irish National Concert Hall in Dublin. Irish singer Fiona Gillespie joins the merry instrumentalists on fiddles, flute, cello, hammered dulcimer, plucked instruments, and harpsichord. Dublin – the ancient city of pubs, pints, and castles. Wandering bards and musicians have traveled the road to Dublin for centuries. In this new program from Apollos Fire and Grammy Award winner Jeannette Sorrell, haunting ballads and legends give way to driving reels…. Celtic fiddlers set sparks flying. Never think that classical music is boring – not when its performed by Apollo’s Fire! —CoolCleveland.com This program is a creative sequel to Sorrell’s 2015 program, Sugarloaf Mountain: An Appalachian Gathering, which has toured across the U.S. as well as to such venues as the National Concert Hall in Dublin, the Aldeburgh Festival in England, and Belfast Castle.

The twice-national studio musician of the year, David Johnson – who will serve as host for the evening – is the frontman for Bluegrass Boys. Folks who know Johnson can attest to his being one of the most entertaining emcees anywhere. His running commentary about the members of the two bands and the history of the music is worth the price of admission in itself! Trombonist Harold McKinney, a retired ASU faculty member from the Hayes School of Music, directs the King Street Brass brass. This concert has special meaning for McKinney, as he was a member of the United States Air Force’s Tactical Air Command Band during his three and one-half years of military service. The usual suspects will again be joining McKinney: alto trumpeter Patrick Whitehead from Washington DCs Monumental Brass, tubist Chris Watson, music instructor from the Watauga County Schools; and soprano saxophonist Scott Kallestead, drummer Rob Falvo, and alto trombonist Joe Brown, all from the Hayes School of Music. This show will be an evening of excellent renditions of songs popular in both musical genres as each group is given the chance to play some standards from their respective music styles, but what makes the concert special is when they combine their efforts. Joe Shannon once described the concert this way When they team up, it’s magic, kind of like Dixieland, but it’s Bluegrass Dixieland with an Appalachian heart. Past audiences can attest to the fact that this concert is just plain fun and nothing is more uplifting than hearing the Grass and Brass play the service anthems in their Armed Forces Salute, as JSMHM honors those who have served or are serving our country. This years selections will again include songs such as the Stars and Str

The Los Angeles Times described the musicians as astonishing, their playing shockingly deep, approaching the kind of sublimity other quartets spend a lifetime searching. The Washington Post noted that four more individual musicians are unimaginable, yet these speak, breathe, think and feel as one. For more than a decade, the Calidore has enjoyed performances and residencies in the worlds major venues and festivals, released multiple critically acclaimed recordings and won numerous awards. The Calidore is recognized as one of the worlds foremost interpreters of a vast repertory; from the cycles of quartets by Beethoven and Mendelssohn to works of celebrated contemporary voices like Grygory Kurtag, Jorg Widmann and Caroline Shaw.

Billy Cane, a young soldier just home from World War II, meets Alice Murphy, the brilliant editor of a southern literary journal. Together they discover a powerful secret that alters their lives forever. With beautiful bluegrass melodies and powerfully moving characters, the story unfolds as a rich tapestry of deep emotion, heart, and plenty of warm southern humor. An uplifting theatrical journey that holds you tightly in its grasp, Bright Star is being called a fresh breeze, downright wonderful, and gentle-spirited by critics!
