{"product_id":"tessa-lark-stradgrass-sessions-cd","title":"Tessa Lark - Stradgrass Sessions (CD)","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDetails: \u003c\/strong\u003eThis album is a snapshot of the way I live in music. Diversely; organically; intimately; sometimes collaboratively, sometimes solitarily; always sincerely; and anywhere, be it a concert hall or home studio. Stradgrass is the exploration of the violin's stylistic capabilities, through various American folk styles, from a Classical lens. The word 'Stradgrass' first came about in 2015, from the novelty of performing Bluegrass on the Stradivari I was playing at the time: the 1683 ex-Gingold violin, on loan to me until 2018 as a result of my silver medal fi nish at the 2014 International Violin Competition of Indianapolis. Hearing Bluegrass played on a Strad is unusual, unfortunately, so I thought it warranted it's own term. The word has caught on in the social media world and seems to succinctly encapsulate what one might partly expect from a recital of mine. Stradgrass seems to be a type of musical exploration that is becoming more common within Classical violin training, and I hope this album will further encourage us all to continue that direction.
