Childsplay in Concert December 5, 2009

Childsplay's over two dozen musicians are made up of some of the leading virtuosos in traditional dance, jazz, swing, English country, Appalachian and Swedish music. When playing altogether the sound is a vibrant, powerful and eclectic experience which surrounds listeners and dancers alike -- playful, innovative and driving. In smaller groupings Childsplay's members can authentically present the elegance of the 17th century English dance music, the lilting beauty of Celtic jigs and airs, the driving rhythms of hoe-downs from the mountains of the Southern United States, the smoky improvisations of jazz or the wild syncopations of chorinho music from Brazil and Venezuela.
