Schubert at Church
The Reflections in Music series returns to The Church in Sag Harbor with a performance of "Winterreise," Franz Schubert's song cycle, by Matthew Rose next Thursday at 6 p.m. The series is an effort to expand classical music's reach and make it new for traditional audiences.
"Winterreise" is a cycle of 24 songs for male voice and piano composed in 1827 by Schubert, with words by the German poet Wilhelm Muller. The poetry is written in the voice of a young man who, upon seeing his beloved marry another, sets out on foot in the deepest winter to escape memories of her.
A bass, Mr. Rose's many international performances have included more than 100 with the Metropolitan Opera. He will be accompanied on piano by Benedicte Jourdois, a member of the Met's music staff who teaches at the Juilliard School.
Tickets are $30.
Comedy Club
The Sticks and Stones Comedy Club returns to the Southampton Cultural Center Friday at 7 p.m. with a comedy lineup headed by Vishnu Vaka, an American stand-up comedian originally from India.
Now on the road with his "Self Driven" tour, he has opened for Russell Peters and appeared on the "In Godfrey We Trust" podcast and the movie "Liquor Run," now streaming on Tubi and Amazon Prime. Mr. Vaka will be joined by Bridget Kavanagh, Rob White, Kathy Arnold, and Joe Winchell.
Tickets are $35, $50 for reserved seating, $70 for top tier.
