From the Porch is a series of capsule concerts and interviews filmed on Centrum’s front porch. Featuring faculty, participants and students from the many workshops Centrum offers, they are a tiny snapshot of Centrum at its best. Over the summer of 2023, Centrum filmed and interviewed musicians and performers from our workshops, asking them about their musical journeys, and how they came to be at Centrum. We filmed through the Pacific Northwest perpetual drizzle and in bright August sunshine, we filmed at seven a.m. and at more musically reasonable hours. This series of tiny concerts is Centrum at its best, world class music and instruction all From the Porch.

In this video we feature some of the Red Hot Strings Fellows, Hunter Burgamy, Parker Spranza, Vic Wong, Erik McIntyre and Georgia Parker. They came to jam together early morning on the porch. To learn more about Red Hot Strings please click the button below.
