David Feurzeig, a composer, pianist, and UVM professor of music, will be performing one of his "Play Every Town" concerts at the Williston Federated Church on Sunday, Feb 23rd at 3pm. He will be joined by vocalists Adam Hall & Grace Hain .
David has performed concerts around the world and has received numerous awards and prizes for his work. However, in response to the climate crisis he has foresworn tours requiring fossil-fuel intensive flying. Instead, he will "travel to the rest of my gigs by public transit or in my solar-powered EV." In addition, he wants to support the vibrancy of Vermont's village centers and downtowns by performing live music in every town in Vermont. Williston will be town number 76 out of the 252 Vermont towns on his list for concerts over the next few years.
David will tailor each concert to its place in some way and every program will be different at least in some part. There is more information at the Play Every Town website found by searching "Play Every Town in Vermont".
The concert is free though David requests donations to a local or state environmental organization. For the Williston concert, the beneficiary will be 350Vermont, Vermont's chapter of 350.org founded by Vermonter Bill McKibben to create a world powered by just and accessible renewable energy.
