Mosaic String Duo
A spirited and eclectic ensemble that incorporates musical influences from flamenco, middle eastern, classical, and rock genres. Infectious rhythms and exotic harmonies, combined with instrumental virtuosity, complete Mosaic's signature sound. Christopher Braddock (guitar, oud, dobro, and mandolin) and Douglas Seth (classical, flamenco, and electric guitars) bring it to life with sophisticated compositions, free form, improvisational style, and technical precision.
The Nearly Valentines
TNV offers an intriguing blend of styles and instrumentation, featuring violin and voice, and accompanied by 6, 8 and 12-string guitars, dobro, mandolin and mandocello. Listeners will hear everything from Elizabethan lute songs to modern bluegrass, and from Irish folksongs to New Orleans-style jazz, as well as original pieces fusing classical, world and other elements.
Pegasus Trio
An elegant performing group specializing in classic chamber music repertoire, as well as folk music from Italy, Greece and the Americas, Ragtime and Celtic selections, and much more, rounded out by Chris’ original compositions and arrangements for this wonderful instrumental combination.
Rocío
Take an unforgettable cultural journey with mezzo-soprano Gina Perregrino and guitarist Chris Braddock, as they bring to life the contemporary and traditional music of Latin America, Spain and the Sephardic world, as well as early Baroque art songs and opera, and their own original songs. They are often joined by guest musicians in their soulful and animated presentation of this repertoire.
Second Opinion
An electric piano and guitar duo joyfully delivering both classic standards and original songs. Specializing in high-energy swing and laid-back Latin-style jazz, spiced up with elements of rock, funk, and fusion. As long as there are different ways to play, there will always be a Second Opinion.
