An evening of music with Mazz Swift at 6OTS

OXFORD – Tonight at 7:30 p.m., 6 On The Square (6OTS) is proud to present violinist, vocalist, composer, Mazz Swift. It’s difficult to describe Mazz’s music because she plays such an amazing variety of styles. From classical to rock, to traditional folk music from around the world (specializing in Irish music), to hip hop, and jazz (free and composed), the highly talented Mazz plays it all and plays it best. When performing solo she uses the name MazzMuse, but by any name what remains constant is that she is a most extraordinary violinist. Mazz brings her passion for creating true compositions to audiences and 6OTS is very pleased to bring her to you.

Swift, a native New Yorker, began playing the violin at age 6, studying with Elisabeth Small, Shirley Givens and Timothy Baker. Mazz graduated from the High School of the Performing Arts, during which time she made her solo public performance debut on the stage of New York’s Alice Tully Hall, performing along­side members of the New York Philharmonic Orchestra. She later attended The Juilliard School of Music, studying under Stephen Clapp, but left in the middle of her third year in order to pursue a more organic approach to music making.
