Longtime friend, former bandmate, and seasoned composer, Michael Bies is among the growing list of artists to be showcased in Southern Florida this coming week. Bies will be performing in Palm Beach on Sunday, 27 December. I know I'll be there... can't wait to support my incredibly talented pal!I just got this blurb from the Palm Beach ArtsPaper about the gig...
A local composer offers a fresh collection of art songs set to texts by the great American poet William Carlos Williams in a concert Sunday afternoon at the Lighthouse Center of the Arts in Tequesta. Michael Bies, who teaches at the Jupiter Academy of Music, also is a composer with a sizeable body of work to his credit, as his website shows. Baritone David L'Hommedieu will sing the Williams songs in its world premiere performance. Soprano Roberta Rehner also will be perform in the concert, which is dedicated to the art song and aria repertoire; music by Bernstein, Britten, Mozart, Schubert and Wolf is scheduled. The recital begins at 3 p.m. in the museum at the Lighthouse Center. Tickets: $10 adults, $5 children. Call 746-3101 or visit www.lighthousearts.org.
