Robin Bullock livestream concert Monday April 20 7:00 pm EDT
Hello again to all my friends as we’re riding together through this challenging chapter in human history…
I was very honored to have the opportunity to share some music with whoever wanted it via a livestream concert this past Saturday evening presented by my friends at White Horse Black Mountain. Thank you to all who joined us and helped support White Horse (and me!).
As this pandemic goes on and its toll increases, it’s becoming clear that part of my work as a musician during this time is to do what I can to reach people emotionally through music and help bring them some comfort and serenity, even if it’s no longer possible (for the time being) to do so at public gatherings like concerts and festivals. So, like all my colleagues, I continue seeking ways I can take advantage of technology to get the music out there and make that connection with my fellow human beings. Livestreamed online concerts have been a godsend for all of us, both musicians and listeners (speaking as both of those! Been enjoying lots of online concerts myself!), along with online music lessons via Skype or Zoom, direct patronage via platforms like Patreon, online sales of CDs or downloads, and so many other ways the Internet allows musicians and their audiences to reach each other in a time like this.
So I’m delighted to announce another opportunity that just arose: on Monday April 20th at 7:00 pm EDT, I’ll be playing another online concert of Celtic, Appalachian, Baroque and Renaissance music on acoustic guitar, mandolin and cittern (and maybe a surprise or two thrown in along the way), livestreamed this time from the stage of An Die Musik in my former hometown of Baltimore. Here’s all the info:

I’ve played on that stage many, many times over the years and it’s always a pleasure; it’s in a historic townhouse just a couple of blocks down the street from the famous Peabody Conservatory of Music, in a room that just happens to have spectacular acoustics. I can’t wait to do a livestream from there – the natural liveness and reverberation in that room always bring out the best in my instruments and (hopefully!) me.
