"The Irish Session Suite"

Traditional Music arranged for string quartet
Kevin Burke and Cal Scott

Many Thanks to the outstanding Portland audience who helped make this concert a true success!

Loftus Music is pleased to announce a new work consisting of ten traditional tunes arranged in four movements. Kevin's fiddle will lead the traditional tunes through Cal's beautifully scored arrangements played by some of the Northwest's finest musicians - Andrew Ehrlich, violin, Heather Mattie Kaiser, viola and Justin Kagan, cello. This challenging project has been made possible by a grant from Regional Arts and Culture Council (RACC) and should prove to be one of the decade's most exciting and intriguing musical collaborations.

There will be a repeat
performance on March 6th at the Aladdin Theater in Portland, Oregon.

The new CD
will also be available in March.
