Photo Gallery: Arrrr, An Evening of Pirate Music
Rhiannon and her music colleagues performed at a prestigious Thompson Rivers University annual Foundation Gala Fundraiser last night -- The event was Pirate-themed!
All ready to go! Posing at Fiddleheads' studio showroom.
The "Adventure on the High Seas" featured an all-pirate theme and Rhiannon's closet provided all the flair she and and her Kamloops Symphony colleague Laure needed. Performing as the "Going Baroque" duo, the ladies played sea shanties, traditional jigs and reels, and other popular pirate music.
Their bio for the event read:
Ahoy! Going Baroque is a Kamloops string duo consisting of symphony-caliberrrr classical violinists donning 1700s costumes, complete with historically accurate too-tight petticoats, itchy powdered wigs and other blasted fineries.
For tonight’s special performance leader Captain Rhiannon Nachbaur and her First Mate will treat our sea-faring carousers to a mix of fancy land-lovin’ classics and toe-stomping sea-worthy jigs to help the rum soak in and get this levee started!
Rhiannon prepared violin and cello arrangements of popular pirate music especially for the event.
The duo "Crossbow" also performed during the cocktail hour.
Kamloop's new a cappella group "Slow No Tempo" entertained during the dinner hour.
The 2018 Gala helped to raise over $58,000 that directly impacted scholarships, bursaries and awards for TRU Students.
The decor was phenomenal! Kudos to the organizers!
A fun time was had by all, enjoying tropical rum punch and other Caribbean morsels during one of the coldest evenings of winter.
And yes, that is Rhiannon photobombing the guys.
