The Movado Hour

The Baryshnikov Arts Center and the New York Festival of Song team up in a new series, NYFOS Next, devoted to new songs by contemporary composers. The initial installment is hosted and curated by Gabriel Kahane, an estimable composer and a crafty tunesmith whose own work spans the worlds of classical music, contemporary pop, musical theater and more. He's joined tonight by fellow singers Lacey Jo Benter and David Deporis, and NYFOS directors Michael Barrett and Steven Blier.
