World Premiere: The Parsonage
Thursday, April 27, 7pm

Music can tell a story. An inconspicuous townhouse in the East Village was at the heart of eight dramatic moments in New York City history. These stories inspired The Parsonage, a new song cycle with a libretto by David Hajdu and music by eight composers bridging the worlds of jazz, classical, and "post-classical" music. Join us for the world premiere of this album, featuring live performances by Theo Bleckmann, Alicia Olatuja, Dan Tepfer, and a chamber-jazz ensemble.
