Appalachia Tour - Day 3

Morgantown, WV


Concert number 3 in our concert tour of Appalachia found us in beautiful Morgantown's West Virginia University Creative Arts Center in the most wonderful (if a little cramped) hall of the tour, Bloch Performance Hall.  The hall's rich and lively sound proved to be perfect for the music of George Crumb.
