SUMMARY:Madeleine Peyroux & Bettye LaVette: Let’s Walk Tour 2025
DESCRIPTION:TICKETS\n\n$55 – $85\nMahaiwe Member & Youth Discount Event \nReserved $55\nPreferred $65\nPremium $85  \nMembers receive $5 off each ticket\n$15 ages 30 and under (visit the Box Office or call 413-528-0100\, Wed – Sat\, 12-4pm)  \nMadeleine Peyroux is an American jazz singer and songwriter who began her career as a teenager on the streets of Paris.  \n“Let us advance our mortal bodies up / Where hearts and minds will go / Let’s walk\, let’s roll.” So sings Madeleine Peyroux on the upbeat title track of her captivating ninth album\, Let’s Walk\, the acclaimed singer-songwriter’s most assured\, courageous work to date. Powered by the distinctive\, honeyed croon that delivered her from the Paris streets to concert halls\, these ten unabashedly personal songs\, all co-written by the versatile Peyroux\, deftly interweave jazz\, folk\, and chamber pop\, with themes ranging from the confessional to the political\, from whimsy to yearning. In every note\, Peyroux digs deep\, rendering this exquisite work with the disarming grace and gravitas of an artist in peak form.   \nFor the ardently civic-minded Peyroux\, Let’s Walk continues the scintillating conversation with her audience – and with the world at large. “This music is part of a dialogue\,” she says. “That’s what art is. It’s engagement\, community. I believe more than anything in getting together with people and listening to music and conversing. Music is the only way I’ve ever built community.”  \nBettye LaVette was hailed by The New York Times as “one of the great soul interpreters of her generation.” She is a singer in the tradition of great vocalists who have come before her like Ray Charles\, Frank Sinatra\, and Dinah Washington\, to name just a few. Bettye is an interpreter of the highest order. Her gift is being able to take a song from any genre\, whether well known or obscure\, and making it completely her own. To quote another great vocalist\, the late George Jones\, “Bettye is truly a ‘singer’s singer.'” \nHer career began in 1962\, at 16 years old\, in Detroit\, Michigan. Her first single\, “My Man\, He’s a Lovin’ Man\,” was on Atlantic Records. Throughout the ‘60s and ‘70s\, she recorded for several major labels. She also appeared in the Broadway Musical Bubbling Brown Sugar alongside Honi Coles and Cab Calloway.  \nNow\, at 79 years old and in her 63rd year in show business\, she is one of very few of her contemporaries who were recording during the birth of soul music in the 1960s and is still creating vital recordings today.  \n\nSponsored by

SUMMARY:Close Encounters With Music: A Tale of Two Salons – Winnaretta Singer and Marcel Proust
DESCRIPTION:TICKETS\n\n$30 – $55\n \n$30 Upper Balcony \n$55 Orchestra and Mezzanine \nThe daughter of sewing machine industrialist Isaac Merritt Singer\, Winnaretta Singer-Polignac was a force of nature\, hosting everyone from Leon Bakst to Jean Cocteau and Jean Giraudoux to Prokofiev\, Madame Jean Lanvin\, Siegfried Wagner\, Arthur Rubinstein\, Arnold Schoenberg\, and Edith Wharton in her Paris salon. More importantly\, she was responsible for developing a new genre: “Great music for a small space by up-and-coming composers” in the words of Sylvia Kahane\, her biographer\, who will join for the four-hand piano “Bagatelle” by Winnaretta’s husband\, Edmond de Polignac. Works either commissioned by her\, dedicated to her\, or that were performed in her mansion on Rue Henri-Martin\, will be featured in our on-stage “salon”: Ravel’s Pavane pour un enfant défunte\, Stravinsky’s Piano Sonata 1924\, the sizzling César Franck Piano Quintet and songs by Fauré\, Poulenc and Reynaldo Hahn. She also befriended Marcel Proust and his lover Hahn\, who reciprocated with an evening at their Paris salon\, inspiring a chapter in Swann’s Way. A rich tapestry in search of a certain time\, place and personages.  \nAlexander Shtarkman\, piano; Sylvia Kahane\, piano; William Ferguson\, tenor; Xiao-Dong Wang\, violin; Grace Park\, violin; Helena Baillie\, viola; Yehuda Hanani\, cello
