Meet Sings & Strings!

“Sings and Strings” – a unique classical music appreciation program featuring Jennifer Silk on violin, viola and harp with award-winning opera singer and cellist Wendy Cotton; and when adding pianist and vocalist Bev Jarosch Tipps, the trio has a “scary ghoul time” as the very popular “Dead Composers Society Orchestra”.

Cellist and opera singer Wendy Cotton (singing All I Ask of You in the above video) is a graduate of the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee with a degree in cello performance. Wendy was a favorite singer with many dance bands in college, but it wasn’t until then that she was encouraged to “try” opera. The result was Wendy being awarded Most Promising Young Artist by the Metropolitan Opera. She has soloed extensively throughout the Midwest teaches privately and is a prolific freelance cellist.

A music education graduate of Western Michigan University and Arizona State University, Jennifer Silk has been delighting audiences as a full-time professional freelance musician for over 35 years! Besides entertaining for different clubs, libraries and schools, Jennifer has performed for over 10,000 events, recorded numerous TV and radio commercials, and is a violist and violinist in two professional orchestras – the New Philharmonic Orchestra and the Northwest Indiana Symphony Orchestra.
