Most people associate the classical guitar and cello with classical music. Rosewood and Rhythm is totally unique, thinking outside. It is a bold, exotic adventure.

This ensemble cuts loose with driving, eclectic improvisations set to Spanish rumbas and boleros, Brazilian sambas, and of course, an Argentine tango. The cello carries the hauntingly beautiful melodies with warmth and tenderness, while the percussion sets the music on fire with bongos and other musical toys.

Leader, Jeff Ausfahl is strongly committed to educational programs that immerse young audiences in artistic yet entertaining, cultural experiences. He has been giving workshop concerts in the New York City public schools Music Outreach program for over 20 years.
