Buckle up for JoyRide, a duo that is a fast-paced, multi-instrumental thrill-ride  of jazz, ragtime, Latin, klezmer, Celtic, bebop, blues and more!

Colin Maier (oboe, saw, vocals, from Quartetto Gelato) & Mark Camilleri (pianist and music director for The Tenors) are JoyRide. Their mastery and versatility in a smorgasbord of styles has Colin switching gears between oboe, voice, pennywhistle and even the musical saw  in a high-energy romp that shows off their taste for fun.

From “Minnie the Moocher”, to “Air on a Blue String” (a nod to JS Bach), to Chick Corea’s “Spain” and Piazzolla’s heartrending “Tanti Anni Prima”, they pepper their show with hilarious anecdotes and have a blast playing “Stump the Chump” where Mark creates a new song on the spot from random notes provided by members of the audience.  

“Ridiculous, virtuosic, outside-the-box fun … It takes a lot of nerve to make music as amusing as JoyRide’s” (New York Music Daily).

“The audience was enthralled and dizzy with these supermen of music!” Eden Mills Community Club.

Whether you’re a jazz fan, a classical fan, or a true musical adventurer, you’re guaranteed to enjoy these two virtuosos taking the wheel.  Hit the gas to catch Joyride!
