Alex Prizgintas is a New York-based historian and musician who lives and works in the Hudson Valley. As a musician, Alex blends a classical cello with tools such as electric guitar effect pedals and a BOSS RC-300 looping station—pushing the limits of this acoustic instrument to achieve sounds of Jazz, Rock ’n Roll, Latin Tangos, Broadway Classics, and more. His inaugural “Bach to Rock” program has since expanded to feature twelve offerings including his popular “Salute to Broadway,” the “British Invasion,” and “America: Songs of Patriotism, Protest, and Praise.” Each program additionally comes with historical narrations that allow each attendee to journey through history and harmony.
