Crystal Concert


DeaninconcertDean Shostak's Crystal Concert is a unique performance created to entertain and inspire audiences of all ages.  It was created by Dean after years of performing in Colonial Williamsburg  and touring the U.S.
  Starting with Benjamin Franklin's invention, the glass armonica, the concert spans 4 centuries of discoveries in glass music. The Crystal Concert  showcases a variety of instruments and musical styles from early American music on the antique 1824 Grand Harmonicon to hymns on solo crystal handbellls to classics on new instruments such as the glass violin and cristal Baschet.  Dean's stories about the discovery of these instruments and their inventors are as captivating as the music itself.  To add another dimension to the concert there are live video images of the instruments projected on a large screen during the show. While Dean is describing how the instruments are made there is video of the creation to watch at the same time. Dean keeps the shows informal, even taking  questions from the audience.

From time to time Dean will have special guests perform with him in his Crystal Concerts.  Watch for special notices.
