Bruce in the USA:
A Musical History of The Boss

World's #1 Bruce Springsteen
Tribute

Saturday, September 13, 2008
8:00pm - $25.00*
This show has been cancelled by the artist due to scheduling problems. Ticket holders will be
contacted by the box office.

Bruce In The USA is much more than just another tribute! This high-energy musical experience is a note-perfect and visually accurate recreation of a Bruce Springsteen & The E. Street Band concert. Matt Ryan - from the World Famous "Legends In Concert" cast - played the Springsteen character for eight years in their "full scale" Las Vegas show; his amazing portrayal of The Boss (not to mention his jaw-dropping resemblance) is as close as you can get to see the real thing. Clarence himself joined the band on stage in NYC, claiming it was the greatest tribute he's ever seen… Can't argue with "The Big Man"!

Echoes Welcomes:

Alasdair Fraser & Natalie Haas

Master Scottish Fiddler

Thursday, September 25, 2008
8:00pm - $23.50*

Alasdair Fraser is a consummate performer with his dynamic fiddling, engaging stage presence and deep understanding of Scotland's music. His richly expressive playing transports listeners across a broad musical spectrum, ranging from haunting laments from the Gaelic tradition to classically-styled airs, raucous dance tunes, and improvisations based on traditional themes. Alasdair's film credits include solo performances on the soundtracks of several major films, including The Last of the Mohicans and Titanic.

Natalie Haas, a graduate of the Juilliard School of Music, wasn't even born when Alasdair was winning national fiddle competitions on the other side of the Atlantic. But this seemingly unlikely pairing is the fulfillment of a long-standing musical dream for Fraser, whose cutting-edge musical explorations took him full circle to find a cellist who could help him return the cello to its historical role at the rhythmic heart of Scottish dance music. Natalie is in the vanguard of young cellists who are redefining the role of the cello in traditional music.

"Cellists are coming out of the woodwork to study with Natalie, to learn how she creates a groove and a whole chunky rhythm section," says Fraser. "It's inspiring to hear the cello unleashed from its orchestral shackles!"
