Composer and double bassist Edgar Meyer, hailed "the most remarkable virtuoso" by The New Yorker, is equally at home performing challenging classical works, toe-tapping bluegrass standards and iconic pop favorites for listeners of all ages. His charisma and easy-going stage manner beguile audiences and inspire fellow-and aspiring!-musicians to explore broader horizons in this Family Matinee.
