Philadelphia singers perform Saturday
Written by Jessica Smith, Posted in Events, Living
The Philadelphia Singers will perform on Saturday from 7:30 to 9:30 p.m. in Lew Klein Hall at Temple Performing Arts Center.
The event will feature the paired works of Menotti’s “The Unicorn, The Gorgon and The Manticore” and the East Cost premiere of Jake Heggie’s “The Radio Hour.” Both works were chosen to explore the concept of the choir as both the storyteller and the character in the fantastical and imaginative tales and music. “The Radio Hour” is a blended form that includes a choir, one silent actor and dancer and a small instrumental ensemble. With David Hayes as the artistic director and Sean Curran as the choreographer, tickets are available through The Philadelphia Singers’ website.
