The Metropolitan Museum of Art says…

Come and see this award-winning vocal ensemble perform a concert inspired by the Met’s current exhibition The Drawings of Bronzino, on view through April 18. This performance features the world premiere of Bruce Adolphe's Dell'arte e delle cipolle: Omagio al Bronzino (Of Art and Onions: Homage to Bronzino), a musical work commissioned by the Fondazione Palazzo Strozzi in Florence to celebrate the unprecedented exhibitions in 2010 of Bronzino’s drawings at the Met and of his paintings at the Palazzo Strozzi. The concert begins at 7 p.m. in the Museum's Grace Rainey Rogers Auditorium.

This performance is a co-production with the Palazzo Strozzi Foundation, Florence, and The Learning Maestros, New York.
