Experience the raw emotion, excitement and rich expressiveness of the violin, embraced and enjoyed by cultures across the globe. Cathy Irons (violin, viola) together with Dan Robertson (piano), Dougal Canard (double bass, guitar) and Doug Brush (drums) showcase the extraordinary versatility and brilliance of the violin, traveling through a myriad of genres, styles and eras. Ancient melodies, classical showpieces, swing, folk tunes, Romani and more.
We're excited to welcome circus artist Vale Piasley, showcasing the emotional power of aerial circus.
