Bridge & Wolak’s Well-Being Concert invites audiences into a reflective and restorative musical journey that moves fluidly between classical, jazz, tango, and cinematic sound worlds. Through clarinet and digital accordion, the duo creates an intimate soundscape that balances moments of stillness with gentle energy, encouraging deep listening and emotional presence.
Familiar melodies by Chopin, Morricone, Piazzolla, and Bach are reimagined with warmth and imagination, while improvisation and storytelling add a sense of play and human connection. Designed as a space to pause, breathe, and reset, this concert offers music not as performance alone, but as a shared experience of calm, memory, and renewal.
After the performance, you will have the chance to share reflections with others in community and a space for connection, healing, and joy. This concert is for everyone, and especially for those seeking a new kind of live experience. This is one rooted in care for the body, mind, and spirit.
Part of a series planned by Zoellner Arts Center at Lehigh University. Created in partnership with Carnegie Hall’s Weill Music Institute.
Bridge & Wolak
Bridge & Wolak are a globe-trotting musical duo from Canada who create life-affirming concerts full of beauty, virtuosity and humour. Michael Bridge, accordion, and Kornel Wolak, clarinet (both also play piano), met over a decade ago and immediately established an artistic alliance based on the attraction of opposites: Wolak—intensely focussed with a world view infused with sardonic humour; Bridge—flexible and fearless with a playful wit. They share a love of classical, jazz and world music, a fascination with fusing genres and a passion for performance.
They’ve logged about 350,000 kilometres on the road—from Kraków to Quito, from France to Fargo, ND—about the same distance as a trip to the moon. Their concert offerings include a survey of musical hits from the 17th century to today, a program inspired by travel to the cosmos and a look at the outrageously scandalous behaviour of some of the greatest composers of all time.
