Pilgrimage to Louisiana,

Work off some excess Thanksgiving pounds by laughing out loud during the next International Chamber Artists concert. The
Brass Calendar highlights a significant day from each month (e.g. "Income Tax Day"). Peter Schickele said, "Research for this work was conducted in my pocket datebook." Lowell Liebermann's
Appalachian Liebeslieder, Op. 54 for soprano, baritone and piano four hands is a parody of the German Lieder tradition, with movement titles including "Frau Turbosupercharger" and "Schwarzen Hosen Woes." Joining ICA soprano Jessica Usherwood to create these merry musical morsels is Teppei Kono, whose career recently took an international leap when he made his Singapore Lyric Opera debut in the title role of Mozart's Le Nozze di Figaro. Beethoven's Quintet for Piano, Oboe, Clarinet, Horn and Bassoon, Op. 16 incorporates a subtler brand of humor with buffo elements in the last movement. A student performer will also sing two short songs, one with Jessica Usherwood. Suggested donation for this concert is $15 for adults and $7 for students. For further information please call 773-727-5357 or visit www.ICAmusic.org.
Free parking is available in St. Gregory's courtyard parking lot, which is entered from west Bryn Mawr through a "tunnel" between St. Gregory High School and the British School of Chicago. Parking is also available in the lot on the northwest corner of N. Ashland and W. Gregory across the street from St. Gregory's gym building.
After the concert you are invited to a "Meet and Greet the Musicians" at Ranalli's Restaurant located at 1512 W Berwyn, 60640, just east of Ashland. For $15 at the door you'll be able to meet and talk with your favorite musicians and enjoy dinner awaiting you! Ranalli's will donate
20% of dinner receipts to ICA.
