2011/2012 Performing Arts Season |

Valdy and
Gary Fjellgaard Wednesday evening October 12, 2011 LDSS MPR |
|
Two experienced entertainers deliver a
heartwarming show that sends you home
with a smile. Their songs touch a common
ground, with the affection and warmth only
old friends share. Two memorable and endearing
guys, two guitars and two dozen songs tell you where
they've been, where they are, and where they're going.
They are still 'contenders'. www.valdy.com www.fjellgaard.bc.ca |

Pavlo Sunday evening October 23, 2011 LDSS MPR |
|
Guitar virtuoso Pavlo's work is dazzling. Band members join
him on bouzouki, bass and percussion. His music is influenced
by his Greek heritage, Spanish guitar techniques, Latino rhythms
and North American beats. He's sold over half a million CD's, and
puts on a live performance with sizzle and energy. If you liked
the Montreal Guitar Trio, we think you'll love Pavlo! www.pavlo.net |
