Come to Agape Wednesday October 12th to enjoy beautiful tunes in a Historic Victorian Mansion Co-op featuring Alisa Rose and Tristan Scroggins
webpage: http://www.arosefiddle.com/a-rose-and-t-scroggins/
Alisa Rose and Tristan Scroggins stretch and combine bluegrass and baroque style improvisation to add to the growing lexicon of new acoustic music. With breathtaking technical virtuosity and knowledge of both traditional folk music and classical styes they synthesize music on the spot utilizing risky improvisation and innovative musical techniques. Their concerts present a study of both active listening and performance skills as they nearly psychically respond to each others spur of the moment musical colors and ideas to create a ever changing exciting performance.

Alisa Rose has performed with diverse artists including Grammy nominated Quartet San Francisco, 2008 Rockygrass winners 49 Special, and the Picasso Quartet.
