Classical music remains a living, breathing art form

Join violinist Dr. Nicole Cherry and special musical guests for A Fiddler’s Tale, an intimate evening of violin, song, spoken word, and storytelling. Featuring music by Pulitzer Prize-winning composer Wynton Marsalis, Grammy and Pulitzer Prize-winning artist Rhiannon Giddens, Niccolò Paganini, and David Wallace, the program brings together unforgettable characters, timeless melodies, moments of laughter, and reflections on the choices that shape our lives.
