KidsAcoustic: Strings, Strings and More Strings!

Tons of strings! Violin, cello, piccolo cello, and three sizes of viola da gamba. Did we mention the piccolo cello? You may never have seen so many different bowed strings for just two players before.

Lee Inman, one of Shula's favorite collaborators, has been teaching and performing on the viola da gamba and cello in Seattle and the Midwest for over 30 years. Together we share music of the renaissance & baroque eras, traditional tunes from America and the British Isles, and even one of Lee's delightful originals.

Shulamit Kleinerman first added family house concerts to her offerings for children in 2007, and the audience quickly outgrew her teaching studio. The new space at Empty Sea is still welcoming, relaxed, and intimate enough for kids to scootch right upto the musicians' feet... but now there's also room to dance! Shula is passionate about bringing the arts of earlier ages alive for kids. From Mozart operas to baroque minuets to Shakespeare skits to medieval songs, her historical arts workshops connect kids with the sparkle of the past. More information about her performances and classes for kids and adults can be found at shulamitk.net.
