Virtual Concert To Feature Folk Musician

The Susquehanna Folk Music Society will present an immersive virtual concert with folk singer-songwriter Lui Collins on Saturday, April 10, at 7:30 p.m.

Viewers can watch in high definition on a TV or computer, experience 360-degree views on any device that supports scrolling, or use a virtual reality (VR) viewer with a smartphone to virtually step into the concert space with the performer. This type of livestream was pioneered by Musae and River Spirit Music.

Collins has been performing, writing, and recording music for over 40 years, earning international acclaim for her music. Her repertoire, accompanied on tenor ukulele and banjo, ranges from original and traditional folk songs and American standards to bossa nova in the original Brazilian Portuguese. Along with creating four-string arrangements of some original songs, Collins has been exploring the jazz chords in old American standards and bossa nova on tenor ukulele. She has made 16 CDs, performed on others' projects, and shared the stage with folk-world notables such as Tom Rush, Bonnie Raitt, and Canadian folk icon Stan Rogers.

Information and tickets at various prices are available at http://www.sfmsfolk.org. Information is also available by calling 717-745-6577.

Funding for the Susquehanna Folk Music Society is provided by the Pennsylvania Council on the Arts, administered locally by the Cultural Alliance of York County.
