"...Art and the creative process requires risk-taking and danger, dancing on the “rim of the well” with the ever-present possibility of the plunge." RIM OF THE WELL duo brings flamenco fusion featuring the unusual timbral combination of guitar and marimba. They perform original compositions derived primarily from Spanish Flamenco, but with Eastern European, Latin American, jazz, classical, and other influences. Experience this LIVE in SUNRIVER ⏰: September 19, 7pm 🎟: sunrivermusic.org

Internationally-renowned marimba and vibraphone artist Doug Walter has been with Sunriver Music Festival since nearly its beginning, making this special concert the perfect way to launch the Festival’s 50th Golden Anniversary Season.
