Cristi Catt, soprano | Daniela Tosic, mezzo-soprano | James Falzone, clarinet and whistle | Rachel Bell, accordion | Andrew Van Norstrand, guitar

“Known for their stimulating approach to programming” (CD Classic), the two vocalists and three instrumentalists of Tapestry will take the audience on a musical tour from Provence and Brittany in the Middle Ages to twentieth-century Paris and beyond, from medieval song and dance to Gabriel Fauré, Reynaldo Hahn, Cécile Chaminade, Erik Satie, and Edith Piaf.

Tapestry was founded by Cristi Catt, Daniela Tosic, and Laurie Monahan (emerita) to create bold, conceptual programs that travel through time, weaving together a diverse range of genres and colors.

The Cleveland Plain Dealer describes Tapestry as “an ensemble that plants haunting vibrations, old and new, in our ears.” Each recording and concert program beckons the listener to a new time and place—“an inexhaustible cornucopia of sensual pleasures,” according to the San Diego Reader. 

Concert appearances include the National Gallery and the Library of Congress, Washington, D.C.; Jordan Hall and the Celebrity Series, Boston, MA; a Banco Republico tour of Colombia; the Frick Collection and Rockefeller University, NY; Utrecht Early Music and the Maastricht Musica Sacra Festivals; Regensburg’s Tage Alter Musik; the Flanders Festivals of Ghent and Brussels; Le Donne in Musica, Rome; Da Camera of Houston; Denver’s Newman Performing Arts Center; Da Camera Society LA; Stanford University; Connecting Chords Festival, Kalamazoo, MI; Music and Beyond, Ottawa; the Song Festival in Riga, Latvia; the Moscow Conservatory, Russia; and many others. Tapestry has also performed under the baton of Marin Alsop with the Colorado Symphony and Cabrillo Festival Orchestra.

Tapestry has four recordings with Telarc International.
