Celtic Spring filling in for Alasdair Fraser & Natalie Haas

Concert Change - Alasdair Fraser & Natalie Hass will be attending Alasdair's father's funeral this Friday, thus won't be appearing at the concert. We have booked Celtic Spring to take their place.

Celtic Spring is sometimes described as a Celtic Von Trapp family. In the summer of 2007, 12 million people watched Celtic Spring on the #1 rated TV show of the season, NBC's America's Got Talent where millions of viewers voted them on to the finals. This 7-member band performing on fiddle, and backed on other instruments by their very talented parents, combines outstanding step-dancing with equally accomplished fiddle. Very high energy, and very well received by audiences of all ages.

The concert is at 7 pm, at Davis Middle School. The concert was originally scheduled to feature Scottish fiddler Alasdair Fraser and California cellist Natalie Haas, but instead, Alasdair will be attending his own father's funeral in Scotland on Friday. Celtic Spring is expected to present a great show, so there is no need to be disappointed! They appeared on such top TV programs as the Today Show, Good Morning America, PBS, and as far away as Japan's Nippon Television. In 2002 the band was named Grand Champion of the Performing Arts at the 7th annual World Champion of the Performing Arts.

Alasdair Fraser & Natalie Haas tickets will be honored at the door, or ticket holders can receive a refund if they don't want to attend the concert with Celtic Spring.

Following the concert will be the 2010 sponsor appreciation reception with light buffet. In addition, the 2011 Concert Series will be announced, and new sponsorships will be accepted. For more information about sponsoring contact the Series Executive Director, Carolee Bowen, 307-679-2348.

The seven members of Celtic Spring will also present a traditional music workshop the next day, May 8 for orchestra students in conjunction with the Young Musicians Strings Festival. For more information about the Strings Festival, contact Becky Olson at www.ContactYoungMusicians@gmail.com.
