About this event

ENCORE: Back by Popular Demand. Mark your calendars for Saturday, November 21st for return of the national treasure, Mark O’Connor. Mark will be performing An Appalachian Christmas featuring Maggie O’Connor. He began his creative journey at the feet of American fiddling legend Benny Thomasson, and the iconic French jazz violinist Stéphane Grappelli. Now he has melded these influences into a new American classical music and is perpetuating his vision of an American School of String Playing. Mr. O’Connor has won three Grammys, seven CMA awards as well as several national fiddle, guitar and mandolin champion titles. An Appalachian Christmas by Mr. O’Connor was released in 2010 to both critical and commercial success and continues to delight with holiday classics. The project has enjoyed many nation-wide tours. "All Christmas music should be played so elegantly on violin" - Boston Globe; "Elegant " - New York Times; "Heavenly" - Associated Press. For more information, please call the Box Office: 828-526-9047. Reserved seating. Performance will be on the Main Stage. Tax added at checkout. Purchase Tickets
