The Far East meets the Deep South as virtuoso fiddler Ed Caner joins members of theCleveland Chinese Music Ensemble for a lively cross-cultural program exploring the intersections between the string band music of Appalachia and the "silk and bamboo" ensemble tradition of China.

Selections will include both Chinese and American folk songs, played by a combination of Western and Chinese instruments, including violin, viola, banjo, accordion, dizi and xiao (bamboo flutes), sheng (mouth organ), dahu (bass fiddle), pipa (pear-shaped lute), and yueqin (moon lute). Vocalist Xue "Snow" Yu of Qingdao, Shandong, China will sing several selections.

The event, which is part of the John Carroll University Music Department's Music @ Midday concert series, is free and open to the public.
