Claudia Schmidt Returns to Open Door
On Friday, February 9th at 8 PM, Claudia Schmidt returns to Open Door for another great show and to introduce her new CD,"Hark the Dark!"
Hark the Dark is Claudia Schmidt's 22nd recording in a career spanning almost 45 years of composing and performing. She takes a thematic turn here, offering an homage to the oft-maligned season of the winter. Along with her original pieces, she has gathered some musings of fellow musicians, and thrown in a couple standards.
Along with her extraordinary voice, dulcimer, and deluxe pianolin, she is accompanied on her CD brilliantly by pianist Miro Sprague, bassist Marty Jaffe, drummer Conor Meehan, and pianist/accordionist Chris Haynes. On Hark the Dark, Claudia is doing what she most loves, weaving genres, moods, and textures in a seamless journey from beginning to end and back around. This disc is best enjoyed as a sit-down musical meditation. After all, it's about WINTER!
Claudia has never sounded better nor sung with more passion and pleasure. You can find it at her website starting November 1, or at a live concert. www.claudiaschmidt.com
