International fiddle sensation Barrage 8 performs in Abbotsford on Tuesday, March 15 with violinist Calvin Dyck, the Abbotsford Youth Orchestra, and the Langley Community Music School Cello Ensemble.
The concert begins at 7 p.m. at the Abbotsford Arts Centre.
Barrage 8 is the latest project from John Crozman, Dean Marshall and Tony Moore, the original creators of the hit show Barrage.
Utilizing the same energy, panache and innovative stage performance that Barrage was known for, Barrage 8 features all the instruments in the modern string family.
The “8” in the name represents a re-imagining of the string octet: five violins, viola, cello and double bass.
The concert combines upbeat music with choreography, lighting effects, video and visual backdrops.
The members of Barrage 8 are auditioned, top-notch talent from all over North America. Currently on tour in Belgium, Germany and the Netherlands, Barrage 8 is doing two stops in Canada on their world tour.
Barrage has entertained millions of people around the globe through international festivals, concert performances, special events and TV appearances.
