Return of the Wayfaring Stranger

CHAMBER ROOTS: Return of the Wayfaring Stranger is a globetrotting sonic romp. Strings and voices weave a compelling tapestry of fiery fiddle tunes, forlorn love ballads, and chilling accounts of wayward woe.

Virtuosity, sensitive musicianship, and compelling original ideas combine in a dynamic process of genre-bending musical exploration—from the hills and hollers of Appalachia, to continental oddities by turns surly and sultry, to the playful and plaintive strains of Celtic and Scandinavian folk, to newly-composed works by members of the ensemble.

Scott Moore, a Kentucky native in his second year as Artist-in-Residence at the Annisquam Village Church, is joined by a versatile cast of capable colleagues: Erica Pisaturo (violin), and the Clements Brothers, George (guitar) and Charles (double bass).

“We’ve each spent many years traveling the world playing music—from Carnegie and Symphony Hall, to premier festivals—Greyfox, Big Ears, and Rockygrass—to tours of China, Australia, Europe, the Middle East. And here we all are living in Lanesville. Fantastic!”
