A Concert with Composer and Artist Wall Matthews & Guests (Music, Dance & the Poetry of W.B.Yeats)

Musician Magazine: "On guitar, Matthews is a six string wonder...on piano, he's a gifted miniaturist,
matching classical structure with a folkish sense of line."
The Baltimore Sun: “Beautiful and unusual music.”
Wall will perform a program that is an overview of the music he has
done over the years. In addition to a number of instrumental works he
will perform with the cellist Adam Gonzalez, he will include a selection
of pieces from " Words For Music Perhaps", based on the poetry of William
Butler Yeats, in collaboration with the dancer/actress Ara Fitzgerald.
They first created this work in 1981 when it was produced in New
York. It received a number of excellent reviews when they performed it
at The Edinburgh Fringe Festival in 1983.
His latest release,The Dreaming Light, consists of imagistic compositions for acoustic guitar with various combinations of cello, violin, viola, and soprano saxophone. The music is a blend of contemporary impressionistic acoustic colors. Listeners drawn to the work of Bert Jansch, Nick
Drake, and Ralph Towner, as well as Debussy and Ravel, should find this music to their liking.
