This week's Shippen Manor Virtual Lawn Concert is Pyrenesia, a quartet of accordion, violin, guitar, and upright bass that plays gypsy jazz and originals tunes inspired by the music of Django Reinhardt. Their first full-length album, Off-Beat Symphony, was named one of the top ten albums of 2019 by New Jersey Stage Magazine. The virtual concerts are offered in lieu of the annual Lawn Concert Series that was sidelined in the COVID-19 pandemic. The Warren County Cultural and Heritage Division of the Department of Land Preservation, a partner of the New Jersey State Council on the Arts, invites you to enjoy online concerts by the bands that were scheduled to perform.
