Artist: Odyssey

Our region was built by ethnic groups from all over the world, who brought their music, food, and traditions with them. Odyssey's City of Steel takes you on a musical exploration of Pittsburgh's different cultures in the time of the steel mills and coal mines. This talented quartet--Janice Coppola on clarinet, RJ Heid on percussion, Laura Daniels on keyboard, and Phil Van Ouse on tuba and accordion--brings us the music of England, Ireland, Scotland, France, Slovakia, Germany, Hungary, Poland, Russia, Greece and Italy. The program features a rousing close with two Pittsburgh composers, Stephen Foster and Billy Strayhorn.
