Gig Alert: Francesca de Pasquale

Gig Alerts | Apr 6, 2016

ARTIST: Francesca de Pasquale
GIG: Wednesday at National Sawdust

It’s fun to visit the Instagram accounts of musicians. If they’re on tour, you’ll get lots of photos of landscapes interspersed with pictures of dinner. In the case of violinist Francesca de Pasquale, you’ll see gorgeous images of Wales and San Francisco, but you’ll also see a number of photos with students: she’s a committed teacher. And you will also see images of her debut self-titled recording, which includes the new work "Oceanic Fantasy," by Paola Prestini, and which de Pasquale will perform tonight at National Sawdust in Brooklyn.
