Actor & vocalist Alan Cumming and Ari Shapiro of Pink Martini (guest vocalist) & NPR’s All Things Considered both transport audiences to other worlds through their stories. Now, they are joining forces in song for an evening of tunes and tall tales.
Internationally acclaimed Swedish mezzo-soprano Anne Sofie von Otter joins Brooklyn Rider for a program that features a new phase of work which explores love and death through the music of Franz Schubert and Rufus Wainwright.
Two time Grammy winner Dashon Burton will present a sweeping survey of great and significant American music, including works by John Jacob Niles, Kurt Weill, Samuel Coleridge-Taylor, Paul Bowles, Margaret Bonds, William Grant Still, Harry Burleigh, Marques L. A. Garrett, and Moses Hogan.
With an exquisite voice that “belongs to the last of the old great masters of song,” (Süddeutsche Zeitung), Appl brings to life a varied and demanding repertoire that highlights not only his power, but also his sensitivity and ability to transcend language in his musical storytelling.
