Get to Eleven
Directed by Dave Quay

Based on Padraic Lillis’ award-winning one man show, Get to Eleven blends live performance elements with narrative cinematic storytelling in an intimate conversation about suicide, addiction and the importance of sharing stories in our darkest moments.

On stage in performance, among friends in conversation, and in the streets and subways of New York City, Padraic offers his own story, and empowers his audiences to deepen their own relationship with life, mental health, and mortality.

RenChorNY Presents: Austro-Hungarian Court Composers

RenChorNY presents Austro-Hungarian Court Composers

Like her grandfather Maximilian I, who employed Isaac and Senfl, Mary Queen of Hungary brilliantly employed the Court composer Thomas Stoltzer to set Luther’s new 1524 Hebrew-German Psalm translations to pioneering 6/7vv. polyphony. Ludwig Senfl arranged Josquin’s ‘Ave Maria’ to 6vv.

These and other of their motets and lied are featured by RenChorNY, led by Richard Porterfield.
