Wellfleet Preservation Hall

World-renowned Baroque cellist Phoebe Carrai joins award-winning poet Mary Maxwell for an hour of poetry and music.

Sections from each of J. S. Bach’s Cello Suites, alternating with the reading of a contemporary poetic series composed as a response to the18th-century music, will be performed.

Seven movements form the backbone for thoughtful dialogue between four voices: those of J.S. Bach; the cello on which the music is being played; Carrai; and Maxwell.

VIP ticket holders will have preferred seating and are invited to a post-performance reception downstairs at Preservation Hall.

Join us for this early-summer, late-afternoon event, where two contemporary Cape Codders soulfully engage with the Baroque past.
