Violinist Jane Miller and guitarist Terry Spooner formed TenStringFever in the late summer of 2005, although both musicians had played together in various ensembles prior to that time. They have since been performing gigs and concerts in various venues in the UK.
Between them they encompass a very wide musical spectrum, as can be heard in their live performances and on ‘Jigs and Jazz’, their debut album (issued November 2007).
In June they have been recording their second album ‘Chase the Sun’ which will include several of their own pieces as well music by Piazzolla, Morricone, Villa-Lobos and Reinhardt/Grappelly. This should be available this Autumn.
Their playing has been influenced by their vast number of performances in different fields of music. The unusual combination of guitar and violin combined with the range of music played by the duo (in their own arrangements) produces a highly individualistic sound.
This concert will include music by Villa-Lobos, Bach, Schubert, Kleynjans, Morricone, Piazzolla & Ellington.
