He will then join back up with Orpheus to perform his Mandolin Concerto at Williams Center in Easton, PA on March 22nd and Carnegie Hall in NYC on March 24th. In early April, Chris will perform two solo shows: Charles H. Morris Center on April 3rd in Savannah, GA as part of the Savannah Music Festival and the Herbst Theatre in San Francisco on April 8th.
