In 1924 Benjamin Britten heard Frank Bridge's music for the first time and was "knocked out". In 2015, SongSalon presents "B is for Britain", offering a look at the song output of these two notable Britons. Come join us at the Coffeehouse for an evening full of great songs, cocktails and conversation. If you are starved for more, stay for dinner with the artists following the event!
SongSalon is a program operating under the auspices of Joy In Singing, a nonprofit organization.
