Leonard Bernstein
The concert will include selections from the musicals  On the Town, 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue and Wonderful Town, as well as music for piano, performed by Wayman Chin and Brian Moll. 
Few composers capture their time and become the iconic voice of their age like Leonard Bernstein. Writing for small ensembles, symphony orchestras, Broadway, film and opera houses, Bernstein projected a simple message of understanding and hope employing both complex and simple forms and styles – yet always sounding like "Bernstein", a voice best known in his score to West Side Story.
Sandra Piques Eddy

Mezzo-soprano Sandra Piques Eddy has performed on the stage of the Metropolitan Opera more than 100 times. A Boston native, Ms. Eddy has sung with the Boston Lyric Opera, New York City Opera, and will perform the title role of Carmen on a Japanese tour with Maestro Seiji Ozawa in the coming year before singing with the Handel and Haydn Society in Boston and the New Zealand Opera.
David Kravitz


Hailed by the New York Times and Opera News, David Kravitz's recent opera engagements include the Washington National Opera, Piccolo Teatro in Milan, Italy and concert performances with the Boston Symphony Orchestra and the Philadelphia Orchestra. 
This concert takes place at 3:00 p.m. at the Meetinghouse of the First Universalist Society in Franklin, 262 Chestnut Street. Prior to the concert, Dr. Ann Sears, Professor of Music at Wheaton College, will present a pre-concert talk at 2:30.
