Breakfast flies in
Evening ofScottish tunes showcases musica taent Submitted to Go! magazine
A trio that sold out the Pendleton Center for the Arts' Pearson Auditorium last December is back by populardemand topresent an evening of Scottish tunes, showcasing world class talent. Rebecca Lomnicky, David Brewer and Peter Willis will take the stageat7 p.m .Sunday at214 N. Main St., Pendleton. The event is supported by the Oregon Arts Commission. Tickets are$10 for adults.
Rebecca Lomnicky began playing classical violin and piano at age 5. In 2005, she won the Junior Division of the U.S. National Scottish Fiddle Competition, and in 2006 recorded her first CD,'The Call," praised by"Dirty Linen" magazine as"technically masterful, and wonderfully melodic." In 2009, Lomnicky won the 20th Annual Glenfiddich International
Scottish Fiddle Championship held at Blair Castle, Blair Atholl, Scotland. The invitation only championship — seen as the Grammys of thefiddlingworld — is widely regarded as the most prestigious in Scottish fiddle. She is the only non-Scottish born fiddlertoeverearn thetitle.
She'll be on the stage with Brewer, a founding member of the popular West Coast Celtic band, M olly's Revenge,which was voted Best Band of 2005 at the Live Oak Music Festival. They've performed nationally and internationally with highlight appearances at the Chicago Irish Festival, the University of Hawaii Concert Series, the Ballarat Federation Tattoo in Australia, the Tamar Valley Folk Festival in Tasmania, twice at the Shanghai International Music Festival in China and at Celtic Connections in Glasgow, Scotland. As a studio musician David has been contracted to play pipes, bodhran and whistles for indie films and commercials.
They will be joined by Willis, who is in demand as an acoustic guitar accompanist throughout the Northwest. He's at home with jazz, bluegrass, Celtic and acoustic roots music. His long friendship with Lomnicky and Brewer makes for a warm stage presence. The Arts Center expects this show to sell out, so early ticket reservations are recommended and can be secured by calling 541-278-9201. More information is available at pendletonarts.org.
