Friends since the age of 10, Rachel Handman (violin) and Keve Wilson (oboe) lead the Big Apple Band — a joyful ensemble of Broadway musicians who bring music from around the world to life. This lively oboe-violin-guitar-bass-drums combo blends Irish jigs with Venezuelan joropos, Brazilian samba with Persian folk, and more. For the holidays, they infuse their globe-spanning sound with festive warmth and winter cheer, inviting audiences to celebrate the season through rhythm, tradition, and musical joy. Featuring Matt Aronoff (bass), Justin Rothberg (guitar), and Mike Ramsey (percussion).
