Accordionist

We are excited to bring Cécilia back to Blackstone River Theatre once again after last year’s incredible debut concert of Celtic and trad music! Widely recognized as three of Canada’s finest musicians, it is a pleasure to see how much enjoyment Timi Turmel, Erin Leahy, and Louis Schryer find in playing together. Timi Turmel, a master of the accordion, is joined by multi-award winning Canadian champion fiddler Louis Schryer (both the only 8-time Canadian Fiddle Champion and the only artist to hold the title of 4-time Grand Masters Fiddle Champion), and Canadian pianist, composer and arranger Erin Leahy of the multi-talented LEAHY family! While honoring their heritage as Cécilia, their music making has an undeniably fresh and high-spirited sound bringing the best of many musical worlds together in their explorations of traditional, Celtic and Quebecois music. Every one of their pieces is skillfully arranged and highlighted with influences from contemporary, classical, jazz and swing styles. Cécilia’s debut album “Accent” is an impressive offering full of vibrant rhythms and melodies, all resonating with a unique warmth and richness of expression. You’ll find yourself with a smile that lasts long after the final notes of Cécilia’s accordion, piano, and violin have melted away … join us!
