Fred Hersch has been proclaimed “a master who plays it his way” by the New York Times, and an “elegant force of musical invention” by the Los Angeles Times. He is widely recognized for his ability to steadfastly create a unique body of original works while reinventing the standard jazz repertoire — investing time-tested classics with keen insight, fresh ideas, and extraordinary technique. In 2006, Hersch became the first artist in the 75-year history of New York City's legendary Village Vanguard to play a weeklong engagement as a solo pianist. His second solo run there was documented on the Grammy-nominated Alone at the Vanguard, one of six recordings he's made at the iconic club. All proceeds from the concert will go to benefit the New Pine Plains Herald, a non-profit journalism startup serving Pine Plains and members of its school district, which includes Ancram, Gallatin, Milan, and Stanfordville.

Alex Prud'homme's just-published book, Dinner with the President: Food, Politics, and a History of Breaking Bread at the White House Cornwall, CT – Breaking Bread at the White House, an Historical Feast with Alex Prud'homme — Saturday, April 15 at 5pm Alex Prud'homme's just-published book, Dinner with the President: Food, Politics, and a History of Breaking Bread at the White House, is a fascinating, often surprising chronicle of presidential fare, from the starvation-level meals eaten by Washington and his army at Valley Forge to Biden's chocolate chip ice cream. Prud'homme, who is a journalist and freelance writer, is coauthor of Julia Child's memoir, My Life in France, and has written or collaborated on numerous other books. His work has appeared in many publications including The New York Times and The New Yorker. A reading by the author and interview of him by fellow Cornwall artist and author Adam Van Doren at the Cornwall Library will be followed by a book signing. Dinner with the President is inspired by the first reporting from inside the White House kitchen by Prud'homme's great aunt Julia Child when President Lyndon Johnson authorized it. The book explores the tastes of twenty-six of America's most influential presidents—what they ate, why they ate it, how it was prepared, its relationship to the state of the nation, and its effect on people around the world. Along the way we are treated to tidbits such as Lincoln's celebratory turtle soup after the Civil War, Eisenhower's taste for squirrel stew, and Trump's relationship with fast-food burgers. We also learn about overlooked figures like Washington's enslaved chef, Hercules Posey, whose meals burnished the president's reputation before the cook narrowly escaped to freedom, or pioneering First Ladies, such as Dolley Madison and Jackie Kennedy, who used dining and entertaining to build political and social relationships. Attend in-person at the Cornwall Library or by Zoom. Registration required: https://cornwalllibrary.org/events
