Last season, Pianist/ Humorist and Story teller Evans Haile brought warmth, laughter and beloved music to the Reilly Arts Center. He’s back with a new great evening of sprightly conversation and sparkling piano virtuosity to delight and charm.
You are invited to partake in a Musical Cocktail Party with such guests as George Gershwin, Claude Debussy, the fiery Cuban Ernesto Lecuona, American adventurer Louis Moreau Gottschalk, Johann Strauss, the “Waltz king”, amongst others.
In the course of the evening, you will meet these fascinating people, all of who have something to say, and do so through music. Meanwhile your irreverent host, raconteur Evans Haile will spin stories and observations that will have you laughing at how the more things change the more they remain the same.
