Calliope Presents the University of Pittsburgh Bluegrass Ensemble

Since its founding in 2023, the University of Pittsburgh Bluegrass Ensemble has explored the canon of American roots music from a multi-generational, multi-cultural perspective. Led by Bryce Rabideau, of Buffalo Rose (renowned Pittsburgh modern folk / Americana band), this group has developed a wide-ranging repertoire that includes 18th-century fiddle tunes, gospel classics, popular country hits, and genre-bending newgrass compositions. With every performance, these students use their individual talents to create a show larger than the sum of its parts that celebrates Pittsburgh’s contributions to the ever-evolving world of bluegrass and Appalachian folk music.
