Waltzes, Ballads and Airs

Picture
​Imagine yourself in an elegant drawing room; soft candlelight scattered from a thousand crystals of the chandelier, a flute and guitar blending in a melody from some by-gone era. Perhaps it is a composition from Turlough O'Carolan, the blind 17th century Irish harpist, or perhaps that most romantic of melodies, a lilting waltz.
In Waltzes, Ballads and Airs Suzanne and Jim have assembled an exquisite program of dulcet selections - heart songs of the 19th century, Appalachian ballads and haunting airs. A favorite composition from Elizabethan England, Green Sleeves, set to the flute and five string banjo, would have Shakespeare's Falstaff humming along. During the course of this musical journey the audience will visit works from America, Ireland, Scotland, and Wales, as well as England.
The duet's musical dexterity is brought to the fore when they perform on the courtship dulcimer -an American musical invention designed to be played by two people at the same time. Suzanne's award-winning vocal style is showcased, the beauty of her singular voice highlighted in an a cappella mountain ballad.
Waltzes, Ballads and Airs is a program designed for discriminating audiences who appreciate fine music delivered with a unique flair. This concert may be presented to any size audience.
