Week of April 27th, 2015

This week, It is time for our monthly Salon! See info below.



Thursday, April 30th: NYASS  "Burst Into Spring" Concert

The NYASS was pleased to welcome composer Patrick Soluri who shared his insights and his music with us in an intimate setting at Beethoven Piano Studio. It was an evening of lovely music and interesting discussion. Patrick used audio and video excerpts from his various works to illustrate how he uses music to tell a story in different media, such as ballet, opera and film scores. Highlighted works consisted of a number of original pieces for ballet and opera. Michael Fennelly accompanied our featured singers on the piano.

We were treated to the voices of Ian McUen (Tenor), Megan Weston (Soprano) and Stephen Eddy and Thomas Bradshaw (Baritones).

The concert was followed by dinner at nearby bistro, La Bonne Soupe, where the conversation resumed without skipping a beat. Photographer John Gladitsch took photos and video (coming soon.)

We hope you will join us May 28th for our next event.

Saturday, May 2nd: Ballroom Dancing with Fleur Seule at the 92nd St. Y. 

The fabulous Fleur Seule combo, led by Allyson Briggs, took over the ballroom of the 92nd Street Y this Saturday night dance, much to the delight of all assembled. Attendance was nearly triple the usual number, and those of us who are familiar with Fleur Seule know why. Regulars and newbies twirled to waltzes, rhumbas, salsas, foxtrots and more.  There was even a delightful show.
