In this Sonatas & Soundscapes interview that aired Thursday, February 15th, host Bradley Fuller speaks with seven-time Grammy-winning double bassist and MacArthur Fellow Edgar Meyer along with his son, violinist George Meyer.
With their skill as string instrumentalists, collaborative spirit, at-home comfort across multiple music genres, and other similar interests, the two have a kinship that is as musical as it is familial.
Edgar and George share about their careers and give insights into the duo for violin and double bass they co-wrote in 2019. Along with traditional fiddle tunes, the duo is one of several works the father-son pair will be performing on Saturday in Johnson Hall at the University of South Carolina.
