The Riversong String Ensemble is a group of light-hearted and talented musicians who originally formed as part of the Pittsburgh Mandolin Society. They will take you on a musical journey that will show you how the instruments of the mandolin family were utilized by classical composers, the gondoliers of Venice, the ceilidh bands of Ireland, the romantics of Latin America, the inhabitants of America’s Appalachian Mountains and, of course, the musicians who played in the heyday of the traditional mandolin orchestra.
Open to the public. Admission is free.
