On Friday night, classical contemporary artist Adam Tendler, a recent recipient of the Lincoln Center Award for Emerging Artists, and a prestigious Yamaha Artist, performed in MoCA Westport's gallery. Tendler performed a diverse contemporary program including selections by Aaron Copland, Philip Glass, Darius Milhaud, and more. Guests enjoyed delicious food and drinks and explored the current Women Pulling at the Threads of Social Discourse exhibition. 

Esteemed Music at MoCA Concert Series Curator Alexander Platt, shared readings from Madame Bovary to complement Tendler's performance of Darius Milhaud's Album of Madame Bovary, a set of piano pieces written by Milhaud for the film version of the novel.
