James Hill & Anne Janelle

James grew up playing folk, jazz and blues on his ukulele while Anne was exclusively a classical cellist. But the pair’s differences quickly became their biggest asset. The uke is high, the cello is low; the uke plays short notes, the cello long bow strokes; the uke is all about strumming while the cello radiates melody. Like shadows and light in an old photograph, these contrasts are complementary. “We’re like a pair of dancers who cant step on each other’s feet,” jokes James.

This unique show features their re-imagining of traditional carols that crackle with quiet intensity, rich musical textures and scintillating vocal harmonies.

Doors open at 6:45pm
