First, THANK YOU, JOEY, for introducing me to the music of Black Violin!!!!
Black Violin, singly and together, are made entirely of awesome. Srsly.
The amazing Sara Marian and her also amazing SO, Zak, took me to the Lexington (Kentucky) Opera House to see Black Violin live in concert. What a beautiful venue, and what a terrific set of programs they offer!
Here are pictures, doors included.
Unlike some people, Black Violin encourage flash photography and filming, but I preferred to be in the moment. This was before what I’m calling Fiddlegate.
ANYWAY, if you don’t know Black Violin (or even if you do), here’s their latest video:
You’re welcome.
A WRITING PROMPT FROM ME TO YOU: Someone shows off at a concert.

Oh the pressure, of coming up with a new scarf design.

I had never heard of Black Violin so thanks to you and Joey for that. From the video they seem very almost as focused on the visuals as much as the music. Maybe that’s what’s needed to get younger folks interested in music that’s not in the pop/top 40 mold.
Fun post Marian. I enjoyed this a lot.

The pictures ALSO helped.
The violins were ice, but loud — another day.
Eyes cant focus, ringing in ears. Head pounding.
It is the weather.
