Revelry Unique Downtown Events and Carolina Music Planner are proud to present Brazilian violinist Moises Bonella Cunha. He brings a formidable recital program navigating the evolution of repertoire for solo violin.
The artistic and athletic features in Telemann’s Fantasias and J.S. Bach’s Sonatas and Partitas for Solo Violin paved the way for the development of the virtuosic and extended techniques featured in the solo works of Ysaÿe and Brazilian composer Flausino Vale.
Moises Bonella Cunha brings these pieces to life. His clean, articulate tone and unparalleled passion will captivate the audience as each guest is transported through a history of brilliant composition.

About the Artists
Trish Salmon
Trish has been studying clay for many years through the various classes available to her when she lived in the Atlanta area. Taking classes at Penland was a life changing experience and a turning point in her desire to become a studio ceramicist. She and her husband moved to Western North Carolina in 2007, and she has pursued her claywork full time after her career as a kitchen designer. Immediately after retirement, she enrolled in Haywood Community College’s Professional Crafts Program in clay where she received her Associate’s Degree in 2014. She currently is a member of the Odyssey Coop Gallery in the River Arts District in Asheville, NC. She is also a founding member of Artisans on Main in downtown Weaverville where her studio is and where her work is primarily displayed.
Crystal Allen
Before discovering ceramics, Crystal earned a degree in Graphic Art and Design. She has also taught calligraphy, dabbled in watercolors and and learned how to felt, dye and spin natural fibers from her own llamas and sheep. Most recently, Crystal completed the Professional Crafts: Clay Associates degree at Haywood Community College. Her pottery is primarily functional, with altered or hand built additions. Her pieces are produced in her studio, one of her favorite places on earth!
