An evening celebrating the life and work of American musician and composer Arthur Russell; this event celebrates the release of author Richard King's landmark publication, Travels over Feeling: Arthur Russell, A Life.
Across a twenty-year career Russell created a pioneering body of work that defied classification and continues to influence the music of today. Resistant to the idea of genre, his talent allowed him to excel in any number of styles and dialogues.
