Medford Area Performing Arts presents Double Double Duo

Double Double Duo will be the Medford Area Performing Arts Association’s third offering of the 2019-2020 season, performing on Saturday, March 7, at Medford Area Senior High School’s Red and White Theatre, beginning at 7 p.m.

Double Double Duo is an exciting musical team whose performance will surprise and energize all who attend. Featuring virtuoso musicians Kornel Wolak (clarinet/piano) and Michael Bridge (accordions/piano), this unique and eclectic team has been playing together since 2011 and have built a program that is rooted in their classical training and interests, but is ranging and extremely entertaining and approachable for all musical tastes. By using comedy, virtuosity, and sensitivity, they bring their broad repertoire to life.

Actively touring Poland, France, Ecuador, across Canada and now the United States, Double Double Duo performs their arrangements of classical show pieces, sensitive jazz ballads and fiery folk music from around the world. Some of these program highlights include Hungarian Dance No. 5 by Brahms; Summer, from The Four Seasons by Vivaldi; and the Baroque Suite by Handel. By adding popular works, such as Bach To Rock, Boogie Wonders, and a mashup of Polka Grandpa and Rhapsody In Blue, Double Double Duo expands the entertainment aspects. Then there is the comedic aspects that are always part of each piece.

Kornel and Michael are consummate entertainers and love to engage heavily with the audience members and are always having fun on stage. Double Double Duo will surprise and entertain beyond all expectations.

Season ticket holders are encouraged not to miss this performance.
