INTERNATIONAL STRING TRIO

​www.internationalstringtrio.com

This SOTH favorite features Russian-born guitarist Slava Tolstoy, virtuoso violinist and singer from Chicago, Rob Flax, and Boston based bassist Max Ridley who embody their cosmopolitan aesthetic.  The trio's riveting performances encompass a breathtaking range of styles, including Gypsy swing, old-time Appalachian laments, traditional Irish reels, celebratory klezmer, passionate tango, graceful French musette, and burning bluegrass.  While steeped in jazz, they play intricately arranged music that leaves room for improvisation without focusing on it.
They have appeared on the popular NPR show "Says You", performances at the Gypsy Jazz in Paradise Festival, Crested Butte CO, Yoshi's San Francisco, Regattabar and Scullers Jazz Clubs in Boston MA.

Rebecca Kauffman, harp      www.rebeccakauffman.com
​

 Vermont Symphony Orchestra flutist Anne Janson and Rebecca Kauffman, a Burlington-based harpist who is the principal harpist of Pennsylvania's Harrisburg Symphony Orchestra, pair up for this one-hour program. "For both of us, this program is a celebration of the joys of live music.  Perhaps we will hear François-Joseph Gossec's jaunty "Tambourin" and Maurice Ravel's "Pièce en forme de habanera."
