DOORS OPEN 7:00 PM FOR A 7:30 PM START
We are delighted to welcome back Tony McManus & Julia Toaspern. A duo whose musical artistry will leave you breathless.
“…breathtaking duets…” Folker Magazine
….and actually, several duos in one: from powerful, interwoven guitar duets to traditional, classical and self-penned songs and soaring fiddle sets – always delivered with passion, commitment, and an enjoyment of music that is contagious.
“Tony McManus’ music is beyond beautiful, it’s perfect.” Tommy Emmanuel
“Julia Toaspern’s bell like voice and her filigrane fiddle playing are thrilling. She moves effortlessly from fiddle to guitar, her solo is impressive.” SalonFestival
Tony McManus is the leading celtic guitarist worldwide and has just been listed as one of the 50 transcendental guitarists of all time by Guitar Player Magazine. While Tony is known as a soloist his frequent collaborations with diverse musicians have always been a significant part of his work.
Julia Toaspern is a multi-talented musician from Berlin who combines classical training on violin and voice with a wide interest in genres such as jazz, baroque and traditional music. She has released two albums of original songs and has performed in both classical and singer/songwriter modes on both sides of the Atlantic. On top of all this her skills as a guitarist are prodigious and make an exciting fit with Tony’s work.
