The twosome hail from Oregon and tour extensively, according to a press release.
They have performed with folk and acoustic musicians and have sold well over a million albums combined.
Lynne has gained worldwide recognition for original music featuring a Celtic harp, according to the release.
Lynne is known for composing melodies on the Windham Hill/Sony music labels that have repeatedly placed in the Top 10 and Top 20 on the Billboard New Age music charts, according to the release, which adds that she tours year-round performing at national festivals and performing arts centers.
Her work in therapeutic music has gained recognition from NBC, CNN, Fox News Atlanta and numerous newspaper and magazine articles, including Wall Street Journal, the release said.
Frankfurter’s musical endeavors began at the age of 3 when he undertook classical training on the violin, according to the release.
His progress enabled him to study under various master violinists, including concert master of the Chicago Symphony. He participated both as a violinist and violist in a series of chamber music ensembles under the tutelage of internationally renown cellist Bonnie Hampton, pianist Nathan Schwartz, teachers at the San Francisco Conservatory of Music, and the late violinist Ann Crowden of the Crowden School of music in Berkeley, Calif.
At the age of 15, Frankfurter was introduced to the Celtic harp, an instrument which has become the focal point of his musical inspiration and expression, the press release said.
Over the interceding years, he taught himself to play a variety of instruments including electric violin, viola, cello, guitar, cittern — a stringed instrument similar to a lute — mandolin, lap dulcimer and hammered dulcimer, bowed and plucked psaltry, penny whistle, baroque flute, recorder, percussion and, more recently, the Swedish Nyckelharpa, McKinstry said.
Frankfurter works full time as both a performer and audio engineer. He has 18 albums to his credit and two books.
The Laurel B. Johnson Community Center is operated by the Jefferson County Parks & Recreation District and the residents of the Toandos Peninsula.
It offers folk concerts for all ages.
It has seating for more than 50, a fireplace and a full-service kitchen.
The Toandos Peninsula is frequently called the “Coyle Peninsula” because the community of Coyle is located at the tip and occasionally it is called the “Dabob Peninsula” because it separates Dabob Bay from the rest of the Hood Canal.
Some also call it “the end of the earth.” There are no services — no gas station, no restaurant and no market.
