In the hands of celebrated nine-time All-Ireland Fiddle Champion Eileen Ivers, the violin pushes fiddling tradition boundaries from a folk music staple to an intensely driving world stage experience. Ivers and her band open the season with a whirling, upbeat evening celebrating the influences of Celtic tradition.
A celebrated guest soloist with over 50 symphony orchestras, Ivers has been called a “sensation” by Billboard magazine and “the Jimi Hendrix of the violin” by the New York Times.
One of the most awarded All-Ireland Fiddle and Banjo champions ever, Ivers has a celebrated over 30-year career as a performer, composer, producer, songwriter, band leader, educator, and multi-instrumentalist, connecting American, Irish traditional, jazz, blues, and world roots.
