"Tea for Two" - A Stephane Grappelli Tribute & Night of Jazz Violin
Tea for Two, and Two for Tea.... or perhaps many for tea, when Emily Gelineau brings her newest show to the Ellington Jazz Club this Fringe season! Award-winning, internationally acclaimed, pocket-sized multi-instrumentalist Emily Gelineau invites you to celebrate her biggest inspiration, and most famous jazz-violinist in the world, Stephane Grappelli. It's been 20 years of violin-playing for Emily, and the last 10 have been filled with her passion to play Jazz - from Gypsy Jazz, to Brazilian Jazz and even Fusion - and she's taking it back to the basics to celebrate this amazing instrument in jazz. Be ready for fast fancy finger work that’ll see steam come off the strings!
