Speaking as we were earlier in the week about the clutch of local young composers who very winningly combine Early Music usages with contemporary alt classical styles (and BTW, Gawain and the Green Knight was GREAT), Fiona Gillespie teams with Elliot Cole for an evening-length adaptation of the Child Ballad "Tam Lin" (SPOILER ALERT:  the Queen of Faeries loses), well known to fans of Fairport Convention.  I can't speak for you guys, but for my part this stuff is some of my favorite music in New York.

MAKE A NIGHT OF IT:  Everybody is just loving the Egyptian street food at the stylish fast-casual Zooba.
