SUMMARY:Coming Home: The Music of James Taylor
DESCRIPTION:WNY native James Gedeon performs the music of James Taylor in this special tribute event. \nGedeon describes the concert as an intimate acoustic performance that brings audiences closer to the heart of Taylor’s timeless songs. With a deep reverence for the music\, Gedeon presents each piece in its purest form\, capturing not only the warmth and honesty of Taylor’s vocal delivery but also the intricate detail of his unique guitar style. Whether it’s the uplifting message of “Shower The People\,” the inherent longing of “Fire & Rain\,” or the celebration of “Your Smiling Face\,” the result is an authentic\, heartfelt experience that honors Taylor’s legacy\, while inviting listeners to feel as though the music is being shared just for them. \nGedeon began honing his craft in New York City’s legendary Greenwich Village music scene during the 1990s\, performing in storied venues such as The Village Gate\, The Back Fence\, and The Red Lion. It wasn’t long before he became known as a singer and songwriter whose warmth and authenticity could make even those in the farthest corner of a room feel like they were right up front. \nHis talent and stage presence have taken him to some of New York’s most iconic venues\, including Le Cirque\, The Rainbow Room at Rockefeller Center\, and The Waldorf Astoria Grand Ballroom\, where he performed as part of the opening band for Dan Aykroyd and The Blues Brothers at The Alzheimer’s Foundation Annual Fundraiser. \nHis music has traveled well beyond New York. Gedeon has performed at The Smithsonian in Washington\, D.C.\, The Greenbrier Resort in West Virginia\, Flathead Lake Lodge in Montana\, Mauna Kea Resort in Hawaii\, The Ocean Club on Paradise Island in the Bahamas\, and even at The Royal Palace in Morocco. \nAs both a solo artist and collaborator\, Gedeon has opened shows for America\, The Marshall Tucker Band\, Kenny Rogers\, Jay Leno\, Dana Carvey\, and Livingston Taylor. He has performed with renowned musicians including guitarists Oz Noy and Bernie Williams\, drummers Dave Weckl and Steve Holley\, and saxophonist Mark Rivera (Billy Joel\, Ringo Starr\, Foreigner). \nAmong Gedeon’s most memorable performances was at the wedding of radio icon Howard Stern\, where he performed three duets with Billy Joel. Later that evening\, as part of the house band\, he backed up Phoebe Snow and Pat Monahan of Train on their hits “Calling All Angels” and “Drops of Jupiter.” \nToday\, in addition to his solo work and touring with Coming Home: The Music of James Taylor\, Gedeon tours nationally with “Taylor\, Simon\, King: A Celebration of Three American Troubadors\,” honoring the timeless music of James Taylor\, Carly Simon\, and Carole King. \nMore than three decades after his first gigs in Greenwich Village\, Gedeon continues to perform with the same passion\, sincerity\, and spirit that have defined his journey from the very beginning — creating moments of connection through music that feels both familiar and profoundly his own. \nPart of the Spotlight Series\, Sponsored by DFT Communications

SUMMARY:1916 Silent Film\, Snow White\, w/Live Score
DESCRIPTION:NATIONAL SILENT MOVIE DAY is September 29!  Join us just three days later for a special screening of the long-lost first theatrical version of Snow White (1916) with live musical accompaniment. \nEveryone knows Disney’s 1937 animated film classic\, Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs; but few are aware that a teenage Walt Disney growing up in Kansas City saw the original silent movie of the fairy tale.  It was this 1916 silent film that inspired him to blaze a path in filmmaking and make his own version 21 years later. \nLike all silent films\, Snow White was made on flammable nitrate film stock; and for many years\, it was rumored to have been destroyed in a vault fire.  But a single theatrical print was discovered in the Netherlands in 1992; and\, a heroic restoration was performed by the George Eastman House film archive. \nSince the Opera House dates all the way back to the silent film era\, it may not be the first time this film has been presented here.  But now\, Seattle Harpist/Composer Leslie McMichael will perform her original score live on the concert harp for this 63-minute film\, accompanied by her sister Barbara McMichael on viola. \nNorthwest Film Forum commissioned McMichael to compose a new score for Snow White in 2016; and the 100-year-old film and McMichael’s live music premiered at opening night of Children’s Film Festival Seattle that year. Since then\, the old film and new live score have toured across the country. \nHow did McMichael approach the project of scoring the film? The harpist says that her DVD remote and digital timer were two modern tools that she relied on to compose a soundtrack that seamlessly fits the onscreen action. After watching the 63-minute film and writing longhand notes about every scene and character\, she developed musical themes to reflect the moods in the storyline. Certain motifs reappear in her score whenever a character appears – sweet Snow White has specific music\, as does the Witch\, the Huntsman\, the Prince\, and\, of course\, the Seven Dwarves! \nA graduate of Wellesley College\, McMichael’s musical pursuits include performance\, teaching\, recording\, and composition. She has toured the U.S.\, is on the faculty of Music Center of the Northwest\, and is a teaching artist with the Seattle Symphony. \nFrom solo music on concert\, Celtic and electric harps\, to composing\, arranging and recording original music; from Suzuki Method lessons for youth\, to harp classes for adults; from coffeehouses to concert halls … every day is different and fun in McMichael’s musical life!

SUMMARY:Low Lily
DESCRIPTION: Low Lily is the colloquial name for the Trout Lily\, a wildflower that grows in the northeast and in regions further afield. Like its namesake\, Low Lily the band has been blooming across the musical landscape since 2015. Simmons (guitar\, banjo & vocals)\, Cohen (guitar\, mandolin & vocals)\, and Sexton (fiddle & vocals) blend their considerable individual talents into a stylistic bouquet of energetic fiddle music\, introspective folk\, bluegrass\, and Americana. The trio has deep roots in the fiddle tune and singing traditions of North America and the Anglo-Celtic diaspora. \nBorn in San Francisco to musician parents\, Liz Simmons spent her early childhood traveling through the wilds of north America in a sky blue VW bus. Her parents were itinerant\, moving from California to Oregon\, then to Ketchikan\, AK\, where they played regular gigs in pubs for the locals. Once the family settled in rural New Hampshire\, Simmons received classical musical training\, but soon found her way back to folk music. She received a BA from Goddard College where she studied American vernacular music of the 1920s and 30s.  She then went on to found Annalivia and then Low Lily with Flynn Cohen\, as well as perform alongside Long Time Courting\, Hannah Sanders\, EVA\, Livingston Taylor\, Tom Chapin\, and others. \nFlynn Cohen\, at the age of 11\, was drawn to the guitar after an injury left him unable to pursue his passion for sports. When he was in his mid-teens\, his aunt and uncle turned him onto the likes of Fairport Convention\, Michael Hedges\, The Bothy Band\, and Pentangle. At the time\, all he wanted was to play guitar like John Renbourn of Pentangle; so when the opportunity to study with Renbourn arose at the Dartington College of Arts in England\, he jumped at the chance. After graduating from Dartington\, he headed to Oakland\, CA\, to attend Mills College\, where he immersed himself in the Irish trad and bluegrass music scenes there. Ultimately\, he made his way to the east coast after a phone call with accordion champion John Whelan\, who offered him a job as his guitarist. Once in Boston\, he was also hired to accompany three incredible fiddle prodigies in their late teens – Laura Cortese\, Hanneke Cassel\, and Lissa Schneckenburger.  Cohen has also accompanied luminaries such as Adrienne Young\, Cathie Ryan\, Ruth Moody\, and many more. \nLily Sexton is a fiddler\, singer\, and songwriter based in western Massachusetts. A student of classical violin beginning at the age of 4\, she continued a classical music education in violin at the Westport Suzuki School\, and the Talent Education Suzuki School. While pursuing a Bachelor’s degree at the University of Massachusetts-Amherst\, she shifted her focus to fiddle-playing in the traditional Appalachian style. Sexton’s roots have fostered in her a deep versatility; she is equally at home playing a Kenny Baker breakdown\, a Scottish air\, or finding that elusive 3rd vocal harmony part. Outside of Low Lily\, she is front-woman of the indie-folk band Splendid Torch. She is also beloved in the New England roots music scene as a founding member of the neo-bluegrass band Mamma’s Marmalade. \nLow Lily’s recordings have received noteworthy attention with two #1 songs on international folk radio and two Independent Music Award wins. Their original song Hope Lingers On (written by former band member Lissa Schneckenburger)\, has been sung by choirs around the world as an anthem for peace and justice. \n​The Folk in Fredonia Music Series is sponsored by the Gilman Family

His performances have graced prestigious venues such as Jazz At Lincoln Center’s Appel Room\, The Blue Note Jazz Club\, Birdland\, The Kennedy Center\, Alice Tully Hall\, and the Montreaux Jazz Festival\, solidifying his status as a globally recognized musician. \nGreen tours and leads projects with his trio\, quartet\, and quintet.
