Événement
Violin Virtuosos - Jazz & Classical, presented by Gualala Arts Global Harmony Series
Conceived and presented by Fred Adler, this unique and dynamic meeting of both pure jazz and classical virtuoso performances within the same concert is surely historically rare, if not in fact totally unprecedented.
A merging of the two forms, identified as "Third Stream Music," has been visited frequently; however, this night will present absolute thematic purity of each style, performed by two master violinists and pianists combining as violin / piano duos.
The two charismatic and award winning young violinists will also combine forces, collaborating for the first time anywhere to perform the classical and jazz idioms together, including original compositions.
Classical Emma Steele, violin
Ian Scarfe, piano
Jazz Mads Tolling, violin
