Peabody Ragtime Ensemble
Wednesday, May 7, 2008 - 7:30
Celebrating its 34th year this spring, the eight-piece Peabody Ragtime Ensemble is dedicated to preserving the roots of American jazz through research, arrangement and performance of the vintage repertoire. From Ragtime to Dixieland to Big Band, the ensemble "edutains" its audiences with a blend of informative narrative and virtuoso playing that takes the listener on a stroll through America's musical history. Thrice named "Baltimore's Best" by Baltimore Magazine and winners of a 1991 WAMMY award for Best Dixieland Band, the ensemble is equally comfortable on the dance floor and the concert stage.

Wholly Brass - Tuesday, September 23, 2008 - 7:30 pm
The Wholly Brass has been dazzling audiences since 1996. With performances at New York's Alice Tully Hall, Carnegie Hall, and many more prestigious venues, Wholly Brass brings music in an educational and entertaining fashion everywhere they go. Wholly Brass musicians have mastered no only their music, but also the art of engaging a diverse range of ages and musical tastes in their audience.
Yu Wei Chinese Dance Collection - Saturday, October 18, 2008 - 7:30 pm
Renowned Chinese choreographer-dancer, Yu Wei presents a captivating multi-media performance that intertwines culturally-rooted dance and compelling short films. The result is in an unforgettable work that truly conveys China's timeless beauty and mystery. The dances draw inspiration from Chinese literature, history, legend and nature, and incorporate a tantalizing mix of ballet, modern and Chinese folk styles. Each dance has a short film counterpart that artistically depicts the dance's cultural background and behind-the-scenes creation, and - in succession - they reveal the underlying story of a young girl's journey from the depths of China's Cultural Revolution to success in America.
Daniel Narducci - Friday, January 16, 2009
Classic American baritone, Daniel Narducci is a multi-faceted artist whose revered talents have been enjoyed throughout North America, Europe and China. Since his debut with the Cincinnati Pops Orchestra, he has performed with countless opera companies, has had his New York City debut at Alice Tully Hall, and has been featured in several documentaries and programs on PBS and the BBC.
Bronn and Katherine Journey - Tuesday, March 10, 2009
Harpist Bronn Journey and vocalist Katherine Journey share the glorious sounds of heavenly music all across the country. Both are highly trained, classically educated musicians. Bronn's effortless technique and humorous approach continue to make him a favorite with classical concertgoers, while Katherine's alluring, expressive vocal interepretations keep the crowds coming back. On their las tour of 44 states, standing ovations were the rule rather than the exception!
The New Klezmer Quintet - Wednesday, May 6, 2009
The New Klezmer Quintet is based in College Park, Maryland. This group has played numerous concerts around the Washington-Baltimore area as well as farther afield. Two recent concerts at the Music Center at Strathmore were entirely sold out. For an understanding of Kelzmer music, associated with Eastern Europe, think Fiddler on the Roof; but their rich repertoire encompasses other varieties such as classical, American jazz, and tango as well. Their vocal and instrumental arrangements are lively and energizing, including harmonies and lilting melodies. Come to this feast of beautiful rhythms and styles and discover the reason for their popularity.
