Music Notes 

‘Jewgrass: the Appalachians meet the Carpathians’
Wednesday, Nov. 2

Special guest, Hot Tuna’s Barry Mitterhoff, will join Yale Strom and Hot Pstromi to perform “mountain music” from the klezmer of the Carpathian Ukraine to Old Time Americana from Appalachia. Mitterhoff, a virtuosic mandolin player, will present music that is an essential part of both Eastern European Jewish and Southern mountain Christian cultures. Both traditions, born in isolated and rural mountain communities, meld together spirituality, culture and geography. The free and public concert will also feature Jeff Pekarek, Duncan Moore, Walt Richards, Fred Benedetti, Tripp Sprague, and Elizabeth Schwartz. 7 p.m. at Smith Recital Hall at SDSU (5500 Campanile Drive).
