Music Worcester Presents Violinist Tessa Lark & Guitarist Frank Vignola At Tuckerman Hall

Music Worcester will present legendary jazz guitarist Frank Vignola with acclaimed violinist & fiddler Tessa Lark performing an evening of original arrangements spanning classical to jazz and old to new on Saturday May 18th in Worcester's historic Tuckerman Hall. Tickets and information can be found at musicworcester.org.

“This promises to be a wonderful conclusion to our 2023-2025 Season in the intimacy of Tuckerman Hall,” said Music Worcester Executive Director Adrien Finlay.  “These two extraordinary musicians, experts across multiple genres, are reviving the infectious Hot Club vein of Django Reinhardt and Stéphane Grappelli.”  

Widely praised for her technical agility and expressive nuance, Lark is not only an acclaimed traditional fiddler in her native Kentucky, she has also garnered an Avery Fisher Career Grant, a GRAMMY nomination for Best Classical Instrumental Solo, and other accolades cementing her place as a classical superstar. 

Frank Vignola's jazz-steeped musicianship and “acoustic mastery in exhilarating single string runs, complex flurries, and astounding full register riffs” (Downbeat) have earned him a spot on Les Paul's “Five Most Admired Guitarists List.” Vignola has performed everywhere from the Sydney Opera House to Carnegie Hall and currently holds a residency at NYC's renowned Birdland Jazz Club.
