Two of the area’s leading specialists in the performance of Traditional, Folk and Early Music, offering classes, workshops, lecture-demos, master classes, concerts and other enrichment programs for musicians and music lovers.
We believe that traditional and historical music is, like storytelling, literally good for the soul. We believe that creating events where people can participate in deep rich joyous experiences of our collective musical and cultural history can profoundly nurture our imaginations, feed our current sense of community, and expand our sense of rootedness in the larger human family as it extends back through time and forward to our descendants. We believe that teaching and performing events of this kind can have the power of ritual and good theater when they combine knowledge, wonder, humor, and storytelling in a dramatic manner.
