Poet in New York

Event information

Keith James and Rick Foot celebrate New York’s abundant musical and poetic history with a concert of unique and evocative music featuring material by Leonard Cohen, Federico Garcia Lorca, Bob Dylan, Suzanne Vega, and Pablo Neruda and Vladimir Nabokov.

Based on the title of Lorca’s famous book of poems written about New York in 1929, this chilling concert exposes the fear, fascination and vulnerability that a fragile and creative person often feels when confronted with somewhere as unsettling as NYC.

The evening also includes a bio-documentary about the life and work of Leonard Cohen.
