Hot Dogs, Hooch, & Handel

May 27, 2022
The Green-Wood Cemetery, 500 25th St, Brooklyn, NY 11232, United States

Never underestimate the endlessly engaging ways that Andrew Ousley locates classical music in the contemporary moment. In this program, arias from Handel’s Solomon, Serse, Giulio Cesare, Dixit Dominis, and Aminta e Fillide are paired with a variety of hot dogs from New York’s finest purveyors. Why? Because the performance is at Green-Wood Cemetery and hot dogs were invented in 1867 by Green-Wood resident Charles Feltman. This performance is part of the Angel’s Share series and tickets go fast. Rain date is May 28. —Laura Jacobs
