Konnect Club: Celtic Guitar Master Tony McManus with Violinist Julia Toaspern [LIVE]
$10-$30
Tony McManus, guitar & voice
Julia Toaspern, violin, guitar, & voice
A master of the Celtic guitar and a talented multi instrumentalist/ singer, Tony and Julia deliver performances that leave audiences in awe at their instrumental fluency, their ability to lift audiences' spirits through the love and knowledge of the music, and Tony's gently wicked humor. Tony McManus is recognized as the leading guitarist in Celtic music by the late John Renbourn of Pentangle fame. He has been listed as one of the top 50 transcendental guitarists in the world by Guitar Player magazine. Julia Toaspern is a multi-talented musician from Berlin and has released two albums of original songs. Julia's artistry on guitar compliments, and weaves boldly and flawlessly in and out of, Tony’s breathtakingly skillful renditions of pipe and fiddle tunes and songs alike. Classically trained, her fiddle playing is a perfect accompaniment to Tony’s pieces, and as a vocalist, her bright and clear vocals blend beautifully with Tony’s strong and sometimes wistful vocals.
Tony and Julia will perform a mix of Celtic, classical, and contemporary works – such as the "Adagio" movement from J.S. Bach's Violin Sonata No. 1 in G minor, BWV 1001; and traditional Irish reels and vocal pieces.
The livestream will take place at 1pm Pacific.
