About the Event
On the heels of the successful Princeton University Concerts collaboration of countertenor David Daniels and choreographer Mark Morris, two more superlative artists partner in 2014: Grammy-winning pianist Richard Goode and Pulitzer Prize-winning poet C.K. Williams. The New York Times calls the poetry-loving Mr. Goode “a poet of the piano,” while Paul Muldoon hails Mr. Williams, who has written of music as “this exaltation, this splendor, this bliss,” as “one of the most distinguished poets of his generation.” Missing the partnership of these like-minded poets — a Princeton exclusive — would be tragic indeed.
Please note that this concert was rescheduled from the 2012-2013 season and will be offered free to all subscribers who were originally holding a ticket to the concert on May 9, 2013.
