American Genius: The Music of Immigrants What makes an artist "American"? Is it where they were born or where their greatest work came to life?

This Labor Day weekend, the Sherman Chamber Ensemble explores that question through music by Leonard Bernstein, Igor Stravinsky, Béla Bartók, and Ernő Dohnányi.
Join us for an inspiring Labor Day weekend celebration of music that reminds us America's greatest strength has always been the talent, ideas, and dreams brought here from around the world.
<ul><li> Bernstein, arr. Mulleman, Overture to Candide</li><li> Stravinsky, Histoire de Soldat for violin, clarinet and piano</li><li> Bartók, Suite Paysanne Hongroise for flute and piano</li><li> Dohnanyi, Sextet, Op. 37 for clarinet, horn, strings and piano</li></ul>



Featuring Alan Kay (clarinet), Susan Rotholz (flute), Eric Reed (French horn), Michael Roth (violin), Sarah Adams (viola), Eliot Bailen (cello), and Margaret Kampmeier, piano.

A LATE–BLOOMER NEW YORK CITY ACTOR chooses to commit a singular act of charity—serving free coffee to a small segment of the city’s 150,000+ homeless population living on its affluent Union Square. In the process, he discovers a familial connection with this colorful but broken cadre of characters. As COVID overtakes Manhattan, his experiences among the poor lead him into a “dark night of the soul,” from which he ultimately emerges, finding reconciliation with God and true affirmation of the Franciscan belief that “it is in giving that we receive.”Written &amp;&nbsp;Performed by Mark LanhamPlease bring nonperishable food item for the New Milford Food Bank. (Suggestions: cans of tuna, boxes of breakfast cereal.)Tickets $25 in Advance. Students $15
