March: St Patrick's Day
English
SYMPHONY SPACE LIVE: A CELTIC CELEBRATION -- It's not just for St. Patrick's Day. From Brittany to Gallicia, Scotland to Arcadia, The Isle of Man to Ireland, Celtic musicians do extraordinary things with their fiddles, their pipes and their bows. From the stages of Symphony Space, Grammy nominated Blue Note recording aritst STEFON HARRIS hosts a festival of Celtic music featuring the ensemble FLOOK, fiddlers KEVIN BURKE, CHRISTIAN LEMAITRE & ANDRE BRUNET, and singer KARAN CASEY. We also pay tribute to the late Scottish fiddler Johnny Cunningham and hear excerts from his Symphony Space perormance.
