A to Z: Wolf Trap

Wolf Trap is the only National Park devoted to the performing arts. In the summer months Wolf Trap's Filene Center outside amphitheater hosts some of the biggest names in music, theater, and opera. It also hosts some special events. Special Theatre-in-the-Woods. In the Fall, Winter, Spring fans can catch more intimate shows at Wolf Trap's Barns.

You can read my review of that show here.

My daughter ready for a show..



I've been lucky to catch folk performers such as Judy Collins, Country stars like Alan Jackson, symphonies, plays, the blues such as Buddy Guy, B.B. King and John Lee Hooker, classic rockers like Joe Walsh, Crosby Stills and Nash, and Joe Walsh. Jazz like Diana Krall. Wolf Trap really is where the arts come out to play.

You can see who is playing at Wolf Trap this year at their site.

A to Z: Guitar and Piano

Last week I was able to review a concert that featured just a guitarist and pianist. Only two instruments were used during the concert a grand piano and a classical guitar. The instruments were in good hands as the guitarist was Al Di Meola and the piaist was two time Grammy Award winner Gonzalo Rubalcaba. You can read my review here.

Here they are performing together at a different show...
