Performances
"I play an instrument that has four strings, and I'm still trying to get it right. What I've tried to do in the process of playing these four strings is to try and understand the people I meet, the stories they have to tell. And then become an advocate for them and their stories through music." ~ Yo-Yo Ma
UPCOMING PERFORMANCES
A Touch of Tango
Come on a musical journey with Bardon Strings, where strings come alive in a fusion of Latin flair and enchanting melodies. The ensemble will captivate your senses with the passionate rhythm of tangos, performing timeless pieces such Somewhere Over the Rainbow and 'La Paloma', along with the haunting beauty of Gabriel's Oboe from The Mission. Revel in a rich tapestry of sound, and be swept away by the seductive beats of tango in the park.
