The words of celebrated Vermont poet David Budbill take center stage in a concert featuring Vermont and New York musicians and composers. This collaboration with Scrag Mountain Music brings together soprano Mary Bonhag, composer/double bassist Evan Premo, with flutist Karen Kevra, pianist Jeffrey Chappell, and avant garde jazz artist William Parker, who was Budbill's long-time collaborator and friend. They will perform works by Erik Nielsen and Evan Premo, and William Parker will lead a group of vocalists in an incantation of poetry and improvised music. Together, these artists offer a sonically diverse program that weaves together music with Budbill’s iconic poetry, which is written “with rare honesty, affection and grace--and with language so precise and descriptive you will know immediately you’re soul-deep in something extraordinary.” (Los Angeles Daily News)
