'Art Forms Colliding' with Duke Special

Duke Special has written numerous songs inspired by other art forms: Under the Dark Cloth, his response to the photography of Alfred Stieglitz, Edward Steichen and Paul Strand; A Tuneswept Fiddle, his response to paintings by Amedeo Modigliani; Hallow, songs inspired by the poetry of Michael Longley; Brilliant Mysteries, inspired by the poetry of James Harpur; and to date, songs for seven musical adaptations for theatre including Huckleberry Finn (Lyric Theatre, Belfast) and Mother Courage and her Children (National Theatre, London).

For this unique event, Duke will play an intimate concert in The Helicon performing songs inspired by visual art and literature.
