WORLD: Celtic, FOLK: Traditional Folk
Details:
Black Bear Crossing began with the friendship of two women who met over 20 years ago while participating in a musical theatre production. A common interest in the hammered dulcimer and other folk instruments led to weekend jams, and the invitation to other musician friends to join them. Eventually what began as a living room gathering expanded to performances in the community and beyond. Since the members traveled back roads in order to hold a practice session they selected a name which reflects a common thread-the occasional sighting of a Pennsylvania black bear enroute to the rehearsal site.
A wide variety of instrumentation includes flute, whistle, fiddle, Celtic harp, hammered dulcimer, keyboard and bass. The repertoire, as reflected in their first Cd, "The Bridge" includes many high energy contradance tunes, along with airs, waltzes and old-timey tunes.
