Two musical storytellers weave their tales at the September 28 Summer Concerts Series performance.
Marc Douglas Berardo’s songs mine the deep feelings and lessons gleaned from real-life characters and situations. It’s his songs combined with an onstage presence that uses humor and deft storytelling to rally an audience and lead them into a deep and sometimes spiritual experience. It’s an adventure that brings to mind James Taylor, Jimmy Buffett, Guy Clark, or Steely Dan with a touch of Mark Twain or Hunter S. Thompson for good measure. After thirty years of bars, theaters, house concerts, and festivals as well as a boatload of song awards and national recognition, Berardo has established himself as the real deal.
Hailing from Texas, and on the road for 25 years, Walt Wilkins has made nine solo records, four records with The Mighty Mystiqueros, and one with his wife Tina. He’s had 100 or more songs recorded by other artists, and traveled a fair part of the world.

The timeless elegance of classical music weaves a symphony of sophistication and passion, where every note tells a story at the August 24 Summer Concerts Series performance.
The Loni Bach and the Sparta String Quartet is made up of the four section leaders of the New Sussex Symphony. We all go back much farther though!
Principal cellist Loni Pilshaw Bach recently retired from teaching orchestra 29 years in the Sparta Schools. Principal violist, Laura Schock Lopez was her student from Elementary School through High School. They later became colleagues in the music department at Sparta High School where Loni was the Orchestra teacher and Laura is the Choir teacher. They co-taught the high school orchestras for many years where they also collaborated the choirs and orchestra in many wonderful performances.
As a student, Emily Gaab Moorhead was the first chair violinist at Sparta High School. She later went on to become a strings teacher in Parsippany where she started a hugely successful strings program. She then joined the New Sussex Symphony as principal second violinist.
While Emily was a senior in High School, Chryselle Angderson Yang became a student teacher in Sparta and went on to become the Elementary Strings teacher at Helen Morgan School in Sparta. She also leads the New Sussex Symphony as principal violinist under the direction of conductor Jordan Brown.
All of these wonderful connections through music have brought these four musicians together in so many ways. We not only perform together with the New Sussex Symphony but in many other venues. We are thrilled to be performing this fun program for you today!

Joe Cirotti Trio fuses their multi-instrumentalist upbringings with a passion for the roots of American folk, jazz, country, and bluegrass. Formed in 2015, the current line-up of Joe Cirotti: guitar, Pete Lister: upright bass, and Timmy Coyle: mandolin and guitar, continues to craft a sound steeped in tradition yet infused with modern twists. They find common musical ground in influences like Doc Watson, Tony Rice, and Garcia/Grisman, but also as diverse as Django Reinhardt, Pink Floyd, and Van Halen. This stirs up a one-of-a-kind blend of Americana, bluegrass, alt-country, and gypsy jazz, and acoustic pop.
