Magician Bradley Fields
Bradley Fields' internationally renowned performance Out of Thin Air! blends medieval theatrics, clever comedy and mind-boggling magic. An expert at timing and slight-of-hand, Fields is considered among the top magicians in the entertainment world. Drawing from the days of jesters and traveling bards, the show traverses Coney Island's Dreamland and the mystical Himalayas.

Budapest on the Bluff: Purely Piano
Franz Liszt was the rock star pianist of the 19th-century who invented the solo "recital" and wrote an immense amount of piano music to challenge future generations. His charisma, sense of drama, and big heart are celebrated in this program performed by three of his pianistic descendants: David Allen Wehr, Natasha Snitkovsky, and Barbara Nissman -- rounded out with rarities by Schubert and Brahms and with Bartók's seminal Allegro barbaro, reflecting the primitivism found in the art of Picasso.
