Complimentary with Brunch
Alex Prizgintas began his maiden voyage of electric cello concerts in November 2021 with a program called “Bach to Rock”—now shortened to “B-2-R.” That simple program has expanded into more than twelve concert selections from the “British Invasion” to a “Salute to Broadway,” “Bach to Blues to Jazz” and “America: Songs of Patriotism, Protest, and Praise”—all advertised under the banner of “Uber Arts: Delivering Food for the Soul.”
Classically trained, Alex employs non-classical tools like distortion, delay, and the iconic “wah-wah” guitar pedals symbolic of 1960s Rock n’ Roll bands–all in conjunction with a looping station. Equally comfortable with intimate and stadium settings, Alex is able to craft his own wall-of-sound through his 1,000 watt amp. Accompanied by narrations that reveal some of the back stories of baroque, jazz, folk, and Rock n’ Roll classics, he immerses his audience in a journey through musical history much in the same way of a historical documentary.
