Cellist and five-time Grammy nominated composer Dave Eggar joins UVA Wise’s own pianist Peter Ryan and Symphony of the Mountains Concertmaster Sean Claire for Traditional Fusion: Appalachian/Classical Fusion Works for Piano Trio. The program will premiere new works from Appalachian-area composers Martha Redbone, Donald Sorah, and Benjamin Dawson that fuse traditional elements of Appalachian music with those of classical compositions. Broadway star Maya Days (Aida, Rent, Jesus Christ Superstar) joins the program with works from Sondheim, Bernstein, and Billie Holliday to warm up your winter blues.
