"The Window" is a meditation on the versatile nature of love. The repertoire, in the tradition of piano voice duets (with one of the most prominent pianists on the American scene: Sullivan Fortner) ranges from covers of Richard Rodgers, Stephen Sondheim to Stevie Wonder through the cabaret, the Rhythm and Blues and brilliant compositions by Cecile. Don't miss this remarkable show under any circumstances!...
