The Very Good Coffeehouse Concert Series presents: Angela Lockhart & The Saltire Ensemble

Angela Lockhart is a poet, singer, playwright and artistic founding director of Living Lessons Inc., a not-for-profit educational theatre company in the northeast during the 1990s. She will be performing poems from Xenogeneic, her second poetry chapbook. Angela’s poetry was selected for the 2004 From The Web anthology of previously unpublished political female poets. Angela is presently a writing-workshop leader for the New York Writers Coalition.

The Saltire Ensemble (Kelly Howard, violin; Helene Bergman, violin; Mary Robb, cello; and Aidan O'Donnell; double bass) is an engaging Brooklyn-based group that takes its name from the Scottish St. Andrew’s Flag, where two of its members originate. The crossroads of the flag symbolizes the group’s intention to share exciting music with unusual instrumentation. Come and hear the Bach Double Violin concerto, a Rossini quartet and a double bass and cello duet in a rare setting.
