Barron Ryan Makes Classical, Cool!

ArtsLink’s 2024-25 Concert Series concludes with a concert by pianist Barron Ryan on Tuesday, March 11 at 7pm at the Gold Derrick Gallery on Wells Street in Sistersville. This concert is sponsored by Barb and Tom Daly.

The evening’s entertainment will feature Barron Ryan in his concert “Classic Meets Cool”. ArtsLink coordinator Donna Earley comments, “Barron is not your usual classical pianist. Keep your fingers crossed for some Michael Jackson. Barron’s classical music really is cool!”

 This is a “Sock It To Me” event. We are asking everyone to bring a pair of socks to be donated locally. And be sure to “Knock Someone’s Socks Off” by wearing your wildest socks for the Crazy Socks Contest, judged by Barron. So “Pull Your Socks Up” and join us for an evening of fun.

 Barron Ryan’s love for music has always been divided. The son of two musicians, he grew up in a house filled with the sounds of artists ranging from Mozart to Michael Jackson. So when it comes to his own performing, he’s not content drawing on just one influence. He combines them all into a musical adventure that’s vintage yet fresh, historical yet hip, classic yet cool.
