Reliving Woodstock at Bahr Gallery

More than 80 people attended a very special event at the Bahr Gallery on Sunday August 18 from 6-8pm featuring a Woodstock reunion, unique music from the period, wine and cheese and all surrounded by posters featuring Woodstock and the bands that made it happen! Guests were also treated to a visit by Sha Na Na co-founder Rob Leonard, who regaled the crowds with stories of his personal  experience on and off stage with Jimi Hendrix, Janis Joplin and others.

 

Pioneer rock cello innovator, Aaron Minsky (aka Von Cello), was joined by Gold and Platinum record producer Lisa Ratner on keyboards as they play the music of bands from the era.  The highlight of the evening was when Von Cello played a spine-chilling and magical rendition of Jimi Hendrix's Star Spangled Banner on the electric cello.

 

 

Four other speakers came up and shared some of their Woodstock rememberances with the crowd - who says if you can't remember it you weren't there!
