Blue Ridge Parkway Calendar of Events

The Kruger Brothers – this stunning group of musicians, directed by Swiss-born brothers, perform with friends at the head of many Appalachian hollows, but also around the world with world-class symphony orchestras. So what is this music that combines deep hollow folk and classical music? We don’t know. But it is gorgeous, and there is a word for people who can do this: genius. We urge you to not miss them. Opening for the Krugers are the East Tennessee State Bluegrass Band and the Buck Mountain Band. Films from the Rainbow Quest Shanachie series that show the Stanley Brothers and Doc Watson in the 1960s will be shown at 4 PM in the Museum auditorium.
