Improvisational Possibilities
Doug Hamilton (violin/guitar/voice) and Michael G. Ronstadt (cello/guitar/voice) present fusion of classical repertoire and original songwriting on Sunday, May 6th at 7 pm, as part of the Oxford Community Arts Center's 10 SoCo Series.
An adept multi-instrumentalist, vocalist, and composer, Michael G. Ronstadt has been captivating audiences throughout North America for nearly two decades. A master at his craft, Ronstadt traverses a mélange of musical styles that range from anywhere between folk, jazz, classical, Americana and the wildly ethereal. He lends his talents to a broad range of projects, including solo work and a variety of small ensembles, as well as larger bands.
Primarily known for his prowess as a cellist, Michael G. has contributed his cello to hundreds of recordings from accomplished artists around the world. These include such names as Craig Bickhardt, Ezra Vancil, Amber Norgaard, and Zoe Mulford. Throughout his tenure as an acclaimed musical artist in his own right, Ronstadt has also premiered several classical compositions on behalf of composers like Norways Bjørn Bolstad Skjelbred, as well as United States composers Conrad Kehn, Kenneth Stewart and Michael Ippolito.
He has recorded over two dozen albums under his own name or in groups that he is a part of. These include collaborations with his brother, Petie Ronstadt, in the Ronstadt Brothers band. Also of note is Ohios Serenity Fisher & the Cardboard Hearts, as well as his work as one half of the Aaron Nathans & Michael G. Ronstadt avant-folk duo.
Doug Hamilton is a classically trained violinist who spent many years touring the United States with country music artist Aaron Tippin and Barbara Mandrel. Although classically trained, Doug is drawn to the improvisatory styles of folk, blues, and jazz. He has been called a "musical chameleon" and is quickly at home in most musical environments. Doug performs with the Richmond Symphony, the Dayton Philharmonic, and is the co-founder of The Wildwater Band and Wingwalkers.
Since Michael and Doug are usually performing with other artists, take this opportunity to catch their original music!
