April 21 to May 3, 2009

Celso Machado, Sal Ferreras and John Reischman - Community Concert

April 25, 2009, 1pm

Glebe Community Centre

175 Third Avenue, Ottawa

Free Event

BC Scene and the Glebe Neighbourhood Activities Group present a free community concert featuring three of British Columbia's top musicians.  Celso Machado, Sal Ferreras, and John Reischman share the stage and their considerable talents with a life-long passion for Latin American music.  This special one-hour concert is ideal for families.

Master of ritmos brasilieros, virtuoso guitarist, and an incredible percussionist, Celso Machado brings joy to his audiences with his subtle mixture of musical inspiration, irresistible rhythm and inspired lunacy.

Celso will be joined by master percussionist Sal Ferreras. Sal works in many facets of the Canadian music scene and in numerous genres, including classical, world, jazz, pop and Latin.

Rounding out this talented trio is the remarkable John Reischman, one of the world’s top mandolin players and composers, bringing his impeccable musicianship, tone and taste to an afternoon of great world music.

Presented in collaboration with the Glebe Neighbourhood Activities Group.
