The Dayton Mandolin Orchestra is pleased to bring to our Ohio audience "The First Lady of the American Mandolin", Marilynn Mair, and her duo partner, "Fretted String Whiz", Adam Larrabee. Through her technical mastery and artistic interpretation, Ms. Mair has established the classical mandolin in music circles worldwide, including notable performances at Carnegie Hall, the White House, Lincoln Center, and as a U.S. representative in Italy, France, Spain, England, Austria, Germany, Sweden, Denmark, Japan, and Brazil. Ms. Mair is also an advocate of early Twentieth-Century Brazilian Jazz, called "choro", and her articles on its history and music are some of the most complete in the English language. Mr. Larrabee, faculty member of the New England Conservatory, has recorded extensively with such notable artists as Bruce Hornsby, Evan Harlan, Dave Holland, Evan Marshall and Bela Fleck. He has been commissioned to write works for the New England Conservatory's Contemporary Music Festival, The Milton Academy Chamber Orchestra, and the Virginia Commonwealth Classical Guitar Ensemble, and many others.

SOUND SAMPLINGS (MP3 format):

  • Reminiscencias (choro)
  • Sevilla (from A Spanish Serenade)
  • Sonatina for Mandolin & Guitar (from Vienna Nocturne)
