About Opus Black Strings: The group was established in 2016. A contemporary trio performing music from Beyonce to Led Zeppelin. Opus Black Strings has a penchant for the unorthodox. Opus coming from the traditional catalog of a composer, and black because they perform with Lewis and Clark carbon fiber instruments. The trio consists of Kristen Kopf, cellist, and veteran performer and pioneer of alternative education for 30 + years. She performs with Monk Rowe, and is a freelancing musician. Allyson Sklar is the owner and operator of Valley Talent Education Center, and The Mohawk Valley Strings Orchestra. She performs with the Half Moon Orchestra, and plays viola with Opus Black Strings. The lifeforce of the Opus Black experience comes from the stylistic interpretations of Liz Ingersoll. Known fondly as Liz “Fiddle” she was dubbed a “CNY Treasure”. Liz lights up the stage with her dynamic performance and genuine smile. Liz is a freelancing musician and educator, owns and operates Music With Liz teaching studio, and The State Bridge Collective, art and music venue.
