This is a groupmuse

A live concert in a living room, backyard, or another intimate space. They're casual and friendly, hosted by community members.

Host

Join Allison Gish, mezzo-soprano and Felix Jarrar, pianist/composer for an evening of art song, ice cream, and conversation! In addition to standards by Debussy, Mozart, and others, the program will feature an aria from Felix's upcoming opera Tabula Rasa, which will have its world premiere at NY Opera Fest in May. Also featured is Nick Gish's epic setting of Langston Hughes' poem Democracy.

BYOB. Bring a pint of your favorite ice cream to share, if you wish!
