Music supervisor, orchestrator, arranger, music director, and conductor Bryan Perri will showcase his debut album this spring with Few Words: A Performance April 10 at Zankel Hall at Carnegie Hall.

Perri has worked on Broadway shows including Almost FamousJagged Little PillWicked, and more. Last year, he released his debut album Few Words. The Carnegie Hall presentation will be the first live performance of the work, which blends ambient, classical, and electronic elements. The concert will feature 20 New York City musicians and vocalists, with special guests to be announced at a later date. 

“This album, and now this concert, have been 45 years in the making," Perri said in a statement. "To have the emotional space to create again is a gift, and I am filled with awe and gratitude that I get to share it with you at such a prestigious venue.”

Few Words is an astounding work of music," added Emily Saliers of The Indigo Girls. "It is one thing to step back and intellectually admire the sheer genius of the composition and extraordinary performances, and it is an entirely different experience to delve into the music where I found myself immersed in a world of passion, pathos, humor, conversation, and whimsy. Few Words is Bryan’s mind and music, but it also becomes our own as we listen and are swept away into the ordered chaos of our own understanding.”

Few Words: A Performance is presented by the Denise and Michael Kellen Foundation and A Contemporary Theater (A.C.T.) of Connecticut.
