The performance will take place on Wednesday, June 28 at 6:30 p.m. in the Curtis Gallery. Seating is limited, please register online at newcanaanlibrary.org.
John Lehmann-Haupt has been playing since he was five years old. Known equally for his arrangements of popular and traditional songs and for his classical interpretations, he has released recordings on the Physical World, AIG, and JLH Records labels. His twelve-year engagement at Windows on the World (atop the World Trade Center) was cited by the New York Times.
