Over the past couple of years I've been crafting a multi-disciplinary evening of my music that includes stories, film, and live dance, surrounded by a unique instrumental ensemble of some of the finest musicians I know. Each year it evolves and grows, and I am always excited to see it take shape. This year adds yet another layer: As I write this I am in the studio finishing a new album which will be released shortly before this concert. We will be featuring pieces from this new recording as well as some of my older music, woven throughout with stories, and including new choreography by my wife, Béa, as well as new work by my filmmaker son, Daniel. It is with tremendous joy and gratitude that I am able to share our efforts with you. –SR
