San Miguel Fraser

Where: First Methodist Church, 1165 NW Monroe Ave., Corvallis, OR 97330
When: Thursday, September 12, 7 p.m.
Tickets: Purchase at Grass Roots Books and Music, 251 SW Madison Ave., Corvallis or online here.
 
María and Galen will also offer a workshop on music of Castilla y León from 4-5 pm in the same location. Open to musicians on any instrument. $25 per person payable online only. A minimum of 10 participants is required.

San Miguel Fraser is a duo comprised of Galen Fraser, son of renowned Scottish fiddler Alasdair Fraser, and María San Miguel, a native of Castilla y León (Spain) with deep family roots in the traditions of her homeland. Together, they combine dynamic fiddling and string arrangements with the soaring, life-celebrating singing of María and the exciting, oh-so-sensitive cittern accompaniment of Galen. San Miguel Fraser astounded the audience at a sold-out concert at the Corvallis Arts Center last year. We are delighted to bring them back this time to a larger venue. María and Galen will also offer workshops on fiddle and cittern. Check back here for online ticket sales beginning in August.
