About this concert
Michael Joseph Harris leads an extraordinary group of musicians on a musical journey starting with Django Reinhardt's early music as an all-string hot jazz ensemble in the 30's featuring violinist Eli Bishop from Nashville and Baltimore's Sam Farthing on guitar, then we move into the 1940's and beyond with an amazing duo from New Orleans featuring Chris Christy on resonator guitar and Russell Welch on acoustic guitar followed by Cuban jazz virtuoso César Orozco on piano and top clarinetist Chloe Feoranzo from Los Angeles.

It was a nice intimate setting. The music was amazing, rich and complicated. Their two guests from Paris were incredibly talented and lived up to the promise of providing a "Ferrari" night of music!
