An Evening of Vernon Duke

Discover the two sides of Vernon Duke as the Symphony Space presents an evening of vocal standards and rarely-heard chamber music masterpieces by one of Broadway’s most beloved composers during An Evening of Vernon Duke.

The New Voices Chamber Ensemble, including such NVC all-stars as Joshua Rosenblum, piano, and Clay Ruede, cello, present the New York premiere of Duke’s String Quartet in C and the Tema and Variazioni for Piano Trio. In addition to these remarkable works, written as Vladimir Dukelsky (Duke’s real name), pianist Sam Davis and special guests Kristi Marks and Danny Gurwin perform such Tin Pan Alley classics as “Autumn in New York,” “I Can’t Get Started,” “Words Without Music,” and “Takin’ a Chance on Love.”
