“The O’Schraves” (The O’Gorman/Schryer/Lefebvre Family) brings you entertainment that is joyous, skillful, inspiring, and fun.  Two of Canada’s finest traditional musicians, Julie Schryer, on piano, and Pat O’Gorman, on bagpipes and Irish flute and tin whistle, are more than ably assisted by the younger and cuter members of the family, Benoit Schryer Lefebvre, 19, (2011 and 2012 winner of the 18 and under Pembroke Fiddle Contest) on fiddle, tin whistle and vocals; Zach Schryer Lefebvre, 22, on his own handmade guitar, cello, tin whistle, piano and vocals; and Áine Schryer O’Gorman, 11, (2012 winner of the 9 and under Pembroke Fiddle Contest) on fiddle, stepdancing, tin whistle, and vocals. The O’Schraves play captivating traditional Canadian, Irish, and Scottish music mixed with new compositions written by modern tune composers Brian Pickell, Claude Méthé, Shane Cook and members of the family, as well as original and traditional songs and even a stepdance or two for good measure.
