SPECIAL EVENT. From Lanesville to Annisquam and all around the world: four area creatives who are professional musicians select and perform works that have special meaning on November 11, 2023 in Gloucester’s historic Annisquam Church.
Press release
CHAMBER ROOTS: Return of the Wayfaring Stranger is a globetrotting sonic romp. Strings and voices weave a compelling tapestry of fiery fiddle tunes, forlorn love ballads, and chilling accounts of wayward woe. Virtuosity, sensitive musicianship, and compelling original ideas combine in a dynamic process of genre-bending musical exploration—from the hills and hollers of Appalachia, to the playful and plaintive strains of Celtic and Scandinavian folk, to newly-composed works by members of the ensemble.
Scott Moore, a Kentucky native in his second year as Artist-in-Residence at the Village Church, is joined by a versatile cast of colleagues: Erica Pisaturo (violin), and the Clements Brothers, George (guitar) and Charles (double bass).
“We’ve each spent many years traveling the world playing music—from Carnegie and Symphony Hall, to premier festivals—Greyfox, Big Ears, and Rockygrass—to tours of China, Australia, Europe, the Middle East. And here we all are living in Lanesville. Fantastic!”
Admission is by $35 suggested donation. A reception with the artists will follow the performance.
