Since the group’s inception in late 2007, the Portland Cello Project (or, PCP, as their fans affectionately call them), has wowed audiences all over the country with extravagant performances, everywhere from Prairie Home Companion, to that punk rock club in the part of town your grandma warns you not to go to after dark. The group has built a reputation mixing genres and blurring musical lines and perceptions wherever they go. No two shows are alike, with a repertoire now numbering over 800 pieces of music you wouldn’t normally hear coming out of a cello.

Portland Cello Project will work with students from Wood River High School’s chamber orchestra and their vocal group, Spiritus, while here. The students will participate in a few selections during the evening concert.

Part of The Center’s 2014-2015 Winter Performing Arts Series.
