We went by some of the review we read as the best show in Charleston. We were not totally dissapointed, but bits of the show tune were a bit corney. Some of the songs were on the piano, some with guitar and banjo. There was however 3 highlights to the show, a fantastic opera singer, a lively gospel trio, and... More

About 5 different musicians playing music from Haydn to duke Ellington. It was for tapping hand clapping good. More

Saw May 26th performance at Circular Congregational Church. William Schlitt did a great job of setting the stage and putting everything in context. Can you spell "Music Man"? Ann Caldwell was remarkable -- sweet, poignant, and perfect pitch. Where have you been hiding, Ann? And the mandolin player who played with Bill Schlitt? One of the best mandolin players I've...

Bart Saylor on the guitar, mandolin, and dulcimer lends... More

My 17 year old daughter and I attended Sound of Charleston our first evening here on vacation. She enjoyed it as much as I. Each performer was expert in their instrument: piano, voice, mandolin, mountain dulcimer, banjo, guitar and spoken word. I enjoyed William Schlitts' oratorial style; it brought drama to the stories of the city's history and he included... More

Wonderful variety of music, very enthusiastic entertainers. Well worth the time. More

I shifted our stay in Charleston so we could catch this performance on a Thursday evening. We can honestly say we ended our wonderful trip to Charleston on a perfect note!! The reviews on Trip Advisor give a solid overview of the superb talent of these highly trained musicians. The evening encompassed a wide range of music and the setting... More
