The acclaimed musical duo of Fire & Grace — violinist Edwin Huizinga and guitarist William Coulter — will perform one night only at Santa Cruz's Kuumbwa Jazz Center on Friday, October 20. This family-friendly evening showcases the incomparable talent the pair have for blending baroque and folk music styles, including a performance of their Liquid Gold Suite: which blends the music of Bach with Traditional Irish Music. They will be joined for this performance by award-winning, native Irish singer Éilís Kennedy.
Fire & Grace is an eclectic collaboration, a unique duo exploring the connective musical elements of classical, folk, and contemporary traditions from around the world. Their vast repertoire is all played with a sense of discovery and commitment to the elements of passion and virtuosity — fire and grace — found in these diverse traditions.
