A Musical Feast Presents 'Amblongus Pie: Dance, Music, Verse, and Song' on Friday, November 9, at 8:00 p.m.

A Musical Feast presents "Amblongus Pie: Dance, Music, Verse, and Song" on Friday, November 9, at 8:00 p.m. in the Burchfield Penney Art Center's Peter and Elizabeth C. Tower Auditorium.

A Musical Feast was founded in 2006 by retired concert master of the Buffalo Philharmonic Orchestra Charles Haupt. A Musical Feast ventures to fuse contemporary and classical music with poetry and dance, featuring musicians of international stature as well as local players.

"Amblongus Pie: Dance, Music, Verse, and Song," developed by SUNY Distinguished Professor of English Ann C. Colley, includes a contemporary musical setting and reading of Edward Lear’s “Nonsense Cookery” in honor of Edward Lear’s 200th birthday, performed by mezzo-soprano Julia Bentley. Lear’s nonsense sketches, illustrations, and rather withering self-portraits are also included.

With questions and inquiries, contact Don Metz at ext. 5564 or visit www.burchfieldpenney.org.

Buy tickets online or call 878-6011 during gallery hours. Tickets are $10 for Burchfield Penney members, $20 for not-yet members.
