Ancient melodies meet fresh arrangements to create an unforgettable evening, from sprightly jigs and driving reels to heartwarming carols. Join us for festive musical revelries on a winter night. Eileen Estes , the daughter of Nita Conley (Korn), an influential force in the East Coast Celtic movement of the 1970s, is known as both a tradition bearer and an innovator within the genre. Andrea Hoag , a Grammy nominee and two-time recipient of the Maryland Individual Artist Award, has graced stages with her inventive and sensitive fiddling for nearly fifty years. Karen Ashbrook is a pioneering performer of the hammered dulcimer and a certified therapeutic musician; wooden Irish flute and pennywhistle round out her lively stage presence. Paul Oorts , Belgian multi-instrumentalist, is in demand as a 24/7 performer now that he’s retired from teaching languages at Loyola University. As KA/PO, Karen and Paul perform internationally and domestically. We are using sliding scale pricing for this concert.
