Originally recorded in 2009, Alphabet City Cycle consists of five songs. Show time is 8 PM.

Also on the evening's program are the world premiere of two songs Stitt composed for soprano Rebecca Luker; performances by Bradley Dean and Andréa Burns of song settings of poems by Christina Rossetti, Derek Walcott, Edna St. Vincent Millay, Shakespeare and Henry William Hutchinson; and a song Stitt wrote with poet Howard Schwartz for her wedding to composer Jason Robert Brown.

David Schmidt performs the very first two art songs Stitt ever wrote (with texts by William Blake and William Wordsworth), and Stitt plays piano for the evening alongside violinist Paterson and cellist Mairi Dorman-Phaneuf.

The original recording of Alphabet City Cycle is available from PSClassics and can be purchased on iTunes.

Stitt is a composer/lyricist and a music producer. Her work includes The Danger Year, Big Red Sun (NAMT, Arlen Award with John Jiler), Samantha Spade: Ace Detective (commissioned by TADA! with Lisa Diana Shapiro), The Water (with Jeff Hylton and Tim Werenko) and Mosaic (with Cheri Steinkellner), and she is at work on a new project with director Molly Smith at Arena Stage.
