SUMMARY:CONCERT | American Bluegrass & Square Dance
DESCRIPTION:American Bluegrass & Square Dance\nPurchase Tickets\nTwo American traditions\, one summer evening. First\, a seated concert with Audrey Mae—a Connecticut bluegrass quartet whose close harmonies and acoustic drive draw from the brother duet tradition. Then the floor opens up for a live-music square dance led by caller Liz Slade\, who has been guiding first-timers through their first do-si-do for over forty years—no experience necessary. \nAni’s Table + Marketplace will be on-site with dinner\, or pack a picnic and settle in on the grounds before the music starts. Whether you love to dance or prefer to appreciate exceptional musicianship\, this lively evening combines outstanding entertainment with the charm of our historic setting. \nTickets $15 | Children under 12 free\nFriday\, June 5\, 6:00-8:30 pm\nWebb Barn\, Wethersfield \nDon’t worry if you’ve never square danced before—Liz  will teach you everything you need to know. Join your neighbors for an evening that celebrates both our musical heritage and community spirit. \n\nAudrey Mae | Audrey Mae is Peter Winne and Joe Delillo on close two-part harmony\, with Joe Lemeris on banjo and Sam McDougle on fiddle and mandolin. A generation apart in age\, Winne and Delillo draw from the great brother duet tradition—the Stanley Brothers\, the Blue Sky Boys\, the Everly Brothers—while sounding entirely like themselves. Named for Delillo’s mother\, an Alabama belle\, the band moves between high-octane drive and something quieter and more lonesome\, sometimes within the same song. \nLiz Slade | Caller\, fiddler\, and educator Liz Slade has spent more than four decades drawing people into community dance. Rooted in the old-time traditions of the Virginia and Carolina mountains and the contra dance world of New England\, she’s known for her warmth\, her clarity\, and her ability to make beginners and seasoned dancers feel equally at home.

SUMMARY:CHAMBER MUSIC CONCERT | Musick's Recreation: At-Home Musick-Making in Colonial New England
DESCRIPTION:PURCHASE TICKETS\n  \nCHAMBER MUSIC CONCERT | Musick’s Recreation: At-Home Musick-Making in Colonial New England \nSaturday\, September 12\, 6:00 PM-7:00 PM \nBefore recorded sound\, music happened at home—played and sung by families\, friends\, and neighbors gathered in close quarters. This concert brings that tradition to our Waterman Room\, overlooking the garden\, with a performance by Lyracle\, an acclaimed ensemble specializing in historically informed vocal and viol music\, featuring mezzo-soprano Ashley Mulcahy and viola da gambist James Perretta. \nTogether they perform English songs and instrumental works that would have been familiar in colonial and early federal New England parlors\, connecting local history to the sound of the era. It’s a rare chance to hear chamber music the way it was designed to be experienced: in a small\, resonant room\, with the performers close enough to feel the music. \nTickets: $25 | $18 Members \n  \n\nAbout the Performers \nAshley Mulcahy\, mezzo-soprano\, is a graduate of the Voxtet program at the Yale School of Music and Institute of Sacred Music and has performed with Bach Collegium Japan\, the Boston Early Music Festival\, the Handel and Haydn Society\, and the Newberry Consort\, among others. \nJames Perretta\, viola da gamba\, is a Boston-based performer\, arranger\, and teacher who has appeared with the Boston Camerata and Nota Bene and twice participated in the Silkroad Ensemble’s Global Musicians Workshop. \nTogether\, Mulcahy and Perretta founded the ensemble Lyracle in 2018. \n\n  \n  \n
