On Saturday afternoon, Montero will perform some of her trademark improvisations and sign copies of her latest release, Baroque, in which she works her inventive way with a variety of pieces from the 18th century. Admission is free and open to the public; for those who can't be there, WQXR radio will broadcast the performance live at 96.3 FM in the New York City area and online at www.wqxr.com.
Not to forget — the reopening celebration also includes an all-label classical sale.
