Get ready for another unforgettable musical extravaganza as fiddler MARI BLACK and accordionist CORY PESATURO return for another concert together! The BRT release of their duo album “Unscripted” sold out last time … Drawing on their instrumental virtuosity, the pair embark on a playful exploration of their favorite musical styles that celebrates improvisation and reveling in the unexpected. Rhythmic jazz tunes, blazing klezmer horas, passionate tangos, playful American rags, driving Celtic reels, and more … 

Mari Black burst onto the international stage when she became Scotland’s Glenfiddich Fiddle Champion, 2-time U.S. National Scottish Fiddle Champion, and 2-time Canadian Maritime Fiddle Champion, all within a 3-year period. Mari has performed on five continents, playing everywhere from Celtic Festivals to Carnegie Hall. Holding advanced degrees from the Yale School of Music and Columbia University, Mari teaches regularly at fiddle camps and workshops around the county. Three-time world accordion champion and Cumberland native Cory Pesaturo is on the forefront of the accordion world, pushing the boundaries of what is possible. Cory is the only person to ever win the trio of World Championships on Acoustic, Digital & Jazz Accordion, and is the only accordion graduate of New England Conservatory of Music. He has given two TED talks about his work to revolutionize the much maligned instrument and also teaches masterclasses on improvisation worldwide.
