Joe Scott on double neck guitjo and Hannah Alkire on cello have graced stages throughout the US, Europe, Australia and Canada. With eight CDs and a DVD to their credit, these masterful artists continue to captivate audiences throughout the world with their signature ?new acoustic? sound and boundless possibilities in blending Celtic, Folk, World & Latin music influences, something that Dirty Linen Magazine praises as ?a sumptuous musical feast.? Their original sound is created by the mixing of their diverse musical backgrounds and their unusual instrumentation including the one-of a- kind double neck guitjo, an instrument of Joe?s own design praised by USA Today as a ?beautiful harp-like sounding instrument ? like nothing we?ve ever heard before.? The double-neck guitjo has 14 strings and Joe has developed his own style and technique, playing both necks simultaneously.
Classically-trained cellist Hannah Alkire studied with G. Magyar of the Hungarian String Quartet and is recognized internationally for her stunning tone and emotional, impeccable playing and for taking the cello places it?s never been before.
CDs and DVD will be available at the concert.
