Concert & Jam Workshop with Wheezer & Squeezer
Wednesday, March 22nd
5:00 - 6:00 Potluck meet & greet 6:00 - 7:15 Concert ($15) 7:30 - 8:30 Teaching Jam Session ($15) $25 combined ticket! Jeremiah McLane and Timothy Cummings (a.k.a. Wheezer & Squeezer) are an energetic Vermont-based duo who share music deeply rooted in the traditional dance repertoire of Northern Europe and North America. Wielding accordions and bagpipes —and often whistles and piano— they create a beguiling blend which utterly subverts the common stereotypes of their Old World instruments. McLane and Cummings draw from a broad repertoire that includes bourrées from Central France, gavottes from Brittany in Northwestern France, dance tunes from the Scottish Lowland & Border region, and original compositions reflecting North American influences. Their 2016 release “the Wind Among the Reeds” won the Montpelier’s Times-Argus album of the year award. |
