Christmas is a holiday of motley crews: shepherds, carolers, office parties. This year's Holiday Music Series at Hodgson Concert Hall includes a group that's primed for cheer: Bela Fleck and the Flecktones. Thursday, December 18th, banjo virtuoso Bela Fleck and the Flecktones appear with a program called Jingle All the Way, including sacred and secular holiday favorites.
Groundbreaking banjoist, composer, and bandleader Béla Fleck has reconvened the original lineup of the Grammy Award-winning quartet Béla Fleck & The Flecktones, with pianist and harmonica player Howard Levy back in the fold alongside bassist Victor Wooten and
percussionist/Drumitarist Roy “Futureman” Wooten.
The Flecktones comprise a meeting of musical minds that remains, as ever, utterly indescribable. The band is joined by Flecktones alum Jeff Coffin on saxophone and the Tuvan singing group Alash for this one of a kind holiday program.
