LAST-MINUTE LINEUP UPDATE! ๐ŸŽป๐Ÿ”ฅ

Just in! Weโ€™re excited to welcome Claudius Agrippa to the 10th Annual Ode to the Black Fiddler Music Festival! ๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿพ

Unfortunately, Justus will no longer be joining us, but weโ€™re thrilled to have Claudius stepping in and bringing some serious string talent to the lineup.

An award-winning genre-bending violinist, violist, vocalist, and composer from Brooklyn, Claudius has performed and toured with artists including Peter Yarrow, Paul Stookey, and Roger Waters. Heโ€™s also the lead violinist and vocalist of Nebulous Quartet and a recipient of the Brooklyn Borough Presidentโ€™s Youth Achievement Award for his musical impact on his community.

With a sound shaped by diverse musical influences, Claudius brings a unique perspective to string music and we canโ€™t wait for you to experience it live. ๐ŸŽถ๐Ÿ”ฅ
