Elebash Recital Hall at the Graduate Center (365 5th Ave, between 34th and 35th Sts)

The music on this program was the inspiration for our Fifteen Minutes of Fameproject because turn-of-the-century France celebrated the sensuous beauty of the voice and the flute so well. We’ll indulge in aural hedonism with works for voice, flute, and piano by André Caplet, Cécile Chaminade, Louis de Crèvecoeur, Claude Debussy, Philippe Gaubert, and Maurice Ravel PLUS an encore performance of Fifteen Minutes of Famefrom 11/23.
