   When: Saturday January 16 at 7:00 p.m.
   Where: Montara
   Donation: $12, and bring a potluck snack

Call 650-728-0862 or email [email protected] for seats and directions.  RSVP soon, as space is limited.

Colyn Fischer, a winner of national performance awards, is a virtuoso violinist and fiddler with grounding in classical music, Scottish fiddling, and jazz.
Pianist Shauna Pickett-Gordon has accompanied most of the great Scottish fiddlers on this continent.  Both musicians compose in a wide variety of genres and teach music.
