AT 100 YEARS OLD, SARDI?S IS BROADWAY?S LONGEST RUNNING SHOW!

In 1921, Vincent Sardi, Sr. and his wife Eugenia opened ?The Little Restaurant at the current site of the St. James Theatre. Shortly thereafter, the restaurant was renamed Sardi's and in 1927 it was moved down the block to its current location at 234 West 44th Street. Brook Atkinson wrote in his book ?Broadway, ?Sardi's Restaurant, [is] the center of Broadway?s upper class.?

The American Composers Orchestra?one of the foremost presenters of new music?returns with a concert that explores our relationship to Earth in an age of climate anxiety. The program includes the New York premiere of Mark Adamo?s Last Year, a dystopian reflection on Vivaldi?s The Four Seasons. Viet Cuong?s highly charged Re(new)al is a concerto for percussion quartet inspired by the power of hydro, wind, and solar energies. Newly commissioned world premieres by inti figgis-vizueta and electroacoustic artist Yvette Janine Jackson round out the program. This thought-provoking concert features the ensemble along with conductor Mei-Ann Chen, innovative cellist Jeffrey Zeigler, the Grammy-winning Attacca Quartet, and the ?exhilarating? Sandbox Percussion quartet (The New York Times).
