Description
Oysters! Cakes! Bread and Gravy! This delectable program featuring mezzo-soprano Jennifer Blades and pianist Diane Kinsley will whisk you away with music inspired by the art of fine dining, feasting, and all things delicious.
The performance will showcase the music of Hoagy Carmichael, Cole Porter, and Leonard Bernstein, and culminate in Lee Hoiby's one-woman cooking demonstration opera Bon Appétit—a delightfully comedic tribute to Julia Child's iconic television show, The French Chef. Inspired by the Sheridan Libraries' collection of rare cookbooks, the evening will also feature a one-night-only display of select culinary treasures from this special collection.
Come savor an evening of music and rare books in one of the world's most beautiful libraries. And remember, as Julia Child once said, "With enough butter, anything is good."
