In the spirit of Schubert’s famous musical soirées, artists from New York’s eclectic music scene present an evening of radical responses to Schubert's songs, plus interactive games (and prizes!). Emcees Rick Burkhardt, Alec Duffy, and Dave Malloy join ICE for this tribute to one of history’s greatest composers and partyers.  This is a free event!

Presented in association with The New York Public Library for the Performing Arts.
