About the Event
Folio: The Seattle Athenaeum is thrilled to welcome pianist Paul Finley and writer/maker Patricia Smith for their first two performances at Folio. Their new duet, Enchantments: Framed Moments that Move Us, is a series of vignettes that include encounters with the natural world—water, physics, fire—the medical world, and family, all told in a weave of words and original music.
After a 32-year friendship, Patricia and Paul began working together to create duets with prose and piano. Thanks to their generosity, proceeds from the performances will benefit Folio.
Join us for a musical performance that celebrates and echoes the enchantments of ordinary life. This experience of weaving spoken words and piano music has opened exciting new dimensions for both. Enjoy an hour of musical performances and a reception to conclude the evening.
