Bela Fleck is an amazing virtuoso. The musicians from Africa are equally talented and it was a pleasure to hear the mixture of musical cultures on stage.

Rating: 5 out of 5by Anonymous on 2/20/10Clowes Memorial Hall - Indianapolis Rating: 5 out of 5 Bela Fleck
by flb3 on 2/15/10Liberty Hall - LawrenceI was not expecting the show I saw when I went to this performance. I saw Bela Fleck in 1982 in Winfield, KS with New Grass Revival. I haven't really followed him since, but my husband kind of has. Twenty some years has shown you can improve with age. I was blown away by him then, but somehow he improved on perfection. We were blown away with the talent he brought with him. He is phenominal and he brought forth some phenominal talent as well!!! AWESOME show!!
Rating: 5 out of 5 Fleck totally exceeds expectations!
by jollymomma on 2/15/10Liberty Hall - LawrenceThrow Down Your Heart performance was way beyond the ticket price. Concert easily exceeded 3 hours. Performers were very personable and the melding of bluegrass and African music was amazing. There was energy, comedy, and great music that showcased both the underlying genres as well as the phenomenal capabilities of the musicians.

Rating: 5 out of 5 Africa Project @ Murray SU was unforgettable!!
by allisonhump on 2/14/10Lovett Auditorium - MurrayFirst time to see Bela Fleck live in concert. Read about the Africa Project and loved the idea. The mixture of the Eas/West Africa and American banjo created an unforgetable sound. Highly recommend the concert.

Rating: 5 out of 5 Huge Bargain; Wonderful Musicians
by joe11088 on 2/13/10Lovett Auditorium - MurrayBela is possibly the most versatile musician living. I've seen him 5 times now, and each time with a completely different set of people. Each time, he brings his own style to the songs, yet he seems to blend in perfectly with any genre he wishes to play. The entire concert lasted over two and a half hours, and for only $30 with convenience charge, I couldn't have asked for a better bargain.

by Maripage on 2/13/10Lovett Auditorium - MurrayBela Fleck's "Throw Down Your Heart" performance was truly an awesome experience! The African instruments as well as the other performers made this a night of entertainment that will not be forgotten by this fan. Everyone.....and I mean everyone should find an opportunity to learn more about Bela's African Project and hear this group perform!! It is an event that is not to be missed.

Rating: 4 out of 5 Relaxing evening of music
by Musicalist on 10/22/09Gusman Center for the Performing Arts - MiamiThe fusion of the three instruments was mellow and at the same time interesting.
Rating: 5 out of 5 bravo
by thegoodnicknamesaretaken on 10/20/09Gusman Center for the Performing Arts - MiamiThis was the most amazing concert ever. Each of these musicians is a master in their own right, but together they achieve a synergism that was beyond description. Not an easy feat to combine such diverse sounds into one groove, but this was spot on. They were cohesive and tight, but organic at the same time. The light stage banter among the musicians showed the genuine admiration and respect they obviously share. No stage show frills to distract from the power of the music. After the show, they stayed to chat and sign autographs, and were so humble and approachable.

by percussionmadness on 10/20/09Gusman Center for the Performing Arts - Miamiwhat was so cool was that there were 3 different crowds in the audience, with each group knowing about the performer of their choice (in my case I was there mainly to see Zakir since I'm a percussionist), but by the end of the concert you will be a fan of the other musicians. Edgar Meyer totally blew me away. These guys are each the pinnacle of their profession, and combined they make an experience that is a multiple of 3 times 3.

Rating: 5 out of 5by Cranesandbats on 10/19/09Gusman Center for the Performing Arts - Miami Anything Zakir has his magical hands on is gold! I was amazingly surprised how well the melody of the banjo and the rhythm of the double bass works so well with the tabla. The solos each artist performed had me in tears. If I could be there again to watch them I would!
