Well-Being Concert: Bridge & Wolak
Well-Being Concert: Bridge & Wolak
March 24 @ 6:00 pm – 8:00 pm

Well-Being Concerts break down the walls between performer and audience, inviting you into a space of comfort, creativity, and shared presence. No phones. No formality. Just the freedom to experience the music in your own way. After the performance, you will have the chance to share reflections with others in community and a space for connection, healing, and joy. This concert is for everyone, and especially for those seeking a new kind of live experience. This is one rooted in care for the body, mind, and spirit. Part of a series planned by Zoellner Arts Center at Lehigh University. Created in partnership with Carnegie Hall’s Weill Music Institute. Bridge & Wolak Bridge & Wolak are a globe-trotting musical duo from Canada who create life-affirming concerts full of beauty, virtuosity and humour. Michael Bridge, accordion, and Kornel Wolak, clarinet (both also play piano), met over a decade ago and immediately established an artistic alliance based on the attraction of opposites: Wolak—intensely focused with a world view infused with sardonic humour; Bridge—flexible and fearless with a playful wit. They share a love of classical, jazz and world music, a fascination with fusing genres and a passion for performance. They’ve logged about 350,000 kilometres on the road—from Kraków to Quito, from France to Fargo, ND—about the same distance as a trip to the moon. Their concert offerings include a survey of musical hits from the 17th century to today, a program inspired by travel to the cosmos and a look at the outrageously scandalous behaviour of some of the greatest composers of all time.
