Two hour acoustic showcase by Boston-and-Toronto–based folk duo, Imaginary Expedition (imaginaryexpedition.com), featuring Victoria Dobbs and Stuart Ryerse. These sweethearts write songs that tell stories in the folk-revival tradition, with compositions influenced by Stuart’s first love: classical music. They sing in captivating harmony and counterpoint as Stuart plucks fingerstyle classical guitar in an unconventional lap playing position. The evening includes more than a few elements of the unexpected, from instrumental tunes on Stuart’s modern, three-octave recorder; to Stuart's virtuosic piano playing of classical and improvised works; and even juggling. With their first recording underway, the only place to hear them is live—in the right here, right now—so take off your shoes, close your eyes, and let your ears lead you on an Imaginary Expedition.
