Natalie MacMaster and Donnell Leahy are two of the world’s most celebrated fiddlers; they also happen to be married. Joined by their children, the pair creates a whirlwind of fiddle-driven music, dance, and song, combining the best of French, Celtic, bluegrass, and Cajun with the music and stories of Cape Breton. As the Cleveland Plain Dealer says, MacMaster and Leahy have “the rare ability to take a tune, tweak the melody with ornaments and send the music soaring.” Experience the foot-tapping rave-ups and world-class step dancing of this Cape Breton family affair.

Gregory Porter
“The brilliant new voice of jazz.” —Huffington Post
Thursday, February 19 at 7:30 pm $45/$35/$25
A big man with a big sound, Gregory Porter has quickly become one of jazz’s most important male vocalists. The 2014 Grammy winner for Best Jazz Vocal Album is a soul-drenched singer with star power, and has “what you want in a male jazz singer, and maybe a thing or two you didn’t know you wanted” (New York Times). A minister’s son with a deep love of Nat King Cole, Porter personifies the soulful spirit of the ’70s and combines gospel-shout power with the honeyed tone of a crooner. Prepare to be moved by this incredible live performer.
Presented in association with the Office of the Vice President for Human Resources, Diversity and Multicultural Affairs through the UVM President’s Initiative for Diversity.
