If ever the cliché "95 years young" were applicable, it's to the eternally fresh Ned Rorem, that most French of American composers.  This program includes a bunch of his charming and attractive chamber music -- including a world premiere from this nonagenarian-and-a-half!  Also, new chamber works in Rorem's honor from such paragons of American consonance as Jennifer Higdon, Daron Hagen, and Troy Peters.

MAKE A NIGHT OF IT:  If Ned Rorem were going to have dinner in the neighborhood, you just know it would be at the River Café.
