Copland & Twain - Chelsea Music Festival - NYC

Join us for Copland & Twain, an extraordinary theatrical concert directed by Bill Barclay! 🌟 This unique production, brought to you by Concert Theatre Works and featuring the former Director of Music at Shakespeare’s Globe, intertwines the evocative incidental music of Aaron Copland with the poignant wit of Mark Twain's Diaries of Adam and Eve and other writings.

Experience a captivating performance by five talented actors in stunning costumes alongside the Festival Chamber Orchestra, conducted by the esteemed Ken-David Masur. 🎻💫 This is a NY Premiere that promises to bring to life an engaging collision of American voices through distinctive costumes, lighting, and projections.
