Event Description:
Westhampton Public Library presents Winging and Singing: Songs for the Birds on Tuesday, November 15th at 3:00 pm. This free concert presentation features A Beautiful Future Band performing familiar and new songs featuring birds, and Professor of Biology David Spector providing beautiful photography by John Van de Graaff and an entertaining narrative about the birds. This event is made possible by a grant from the Nuttall Ornithological Club and is free and open to the public.
Winging and Singing celebrates birds in all their glory; their songs, colors, and habits; and shares — with songs, literature, and humor — how birds inspire us, how we admire and emulate them, and how we can honor them with protection and conservation. Enjoy singing along with familiar songs such as "Over the Rainbow," "Blue Skies," "Rocking Robin," "Fly Like an Eagle," and many more.
A Beautiful Future band members include musicians Kate O'Connor on vocals, keyboards, guitar, and steel drum, and Rico Spence on vocals, bass, and percussion. David Spector is an ornithologist with research interests in bird songs and in the interaction between birds and human culture. To learn more, call the Westhampton Public Library at 413-527-5386.
