Experience a lively evening of virtuosity and fun with violinist Tessa Lark, one of the most fascinating artists of our time. Tessa conjures an astonishingly wide range of sounds from her instrument, combining technical dexterity with musical elegance and persuasiveness. An award winner at many prestigious competitions, she was nominated for a 2020 Grammy in the “Best Classical Instrumental Solo” category and is also an acclaimed bluegrass fiddler in the tradition of her native Kentucky.
Tessa is joined by double bassist Nathan Farrington in a collaboration which features works from her latest album, The Stradgrass Sessions. “Stradgrass” is a term Tessa invented when she started playing her bluegrass-inspired compositions on a Stradivarius. The results speak for themselves!
