    Some months back, we had our first Oliomuse - a Massivemuse in the Strand’s Rare Book Room in collobration with our beloved besties ThinkOlio - who do for college lectures what we do for classical music.

    Well it was such a sold-out smash-success that we had little choice but to follow it up with another. So on November 10th, we’re back in The Rare Book Room at The Strand, with another concert-lecture-party-muse that will open up minds, hearts, and maybe a few tear ducts.

    Professor Charles Riley presents the idea that Marcel Proust, when writing his titanic and epochal novel In Search of Lost Time, was inspired by musical notions of thematic development - especially as embodied in Cesar Franck’s violin sonata - by comment consent the greatest violin sonata of the romantic era, and a piece prominently featured in Proust’s great novel.

    The Oliomuse will feature a full performance of the masterpiece by two of NYC’s top talents - Julia Glenn on the violin and Mika Sasaki on the piano.

    Throughout it all, Riley will weave together a tapestry of music, literature, and a vision of old Europe on the precipice of unimaginable change.

    Also, SixPoint is sponsoring the evening with free beer! Tickets are $25 — so get them while they’re hot! The tickets, that is, not the beer. The beer will be cold.
