On Thursday, March 14, 2024 at 6:30pm at the George Peabody Library (17 E. Mt. Vernon Place), the Evolution Series and In the Stacks join forces to present pianist Vicky Chow in a performance of music by Baltimore-born-and-raised composer Philip Glass.

Hailed as “one of our era’s most brilliant pianists” (Pitchfork), Chow will perform selections from Glass’s "Piano Etudes," interspersed with readings from the composer’s memoir, "Words Without Music," performed by Rahzé Cheatham.

The concert will feature photographs of Baltimore and beyond in conversation with the music, as well as a one-night-only display featuring treasures from the Sheridan Libraries archives. Come enjoy an evening of music, photography, and literature in one of the most beautiful libraries in the world!
