Tommywood readers in the New York Metro area will want to be at Cafe Sabarsky at the Neue Gallerie on 86th Street at Fifth Avenue to see Martha Eggerth perform for her 96th Birthday, on April 17

Here's the item from today's New York Times:

Arts, Briefly

Ninety-Six and Counting


Published: April 9, 2008


How does Marta Eggerth, above, plan to celebrate her 96th birthday? By singing at the Café Sabarsky at the Neue Galerie. The cabaret performance on April 17 will be her second there this month. The other performance will take place on Thursday. Ms. Eggerth, whose career has embraced operetta, opera, lieder and European and American film, gave sold-out performances in October at Café Sabarsky, where she has been appearing since 2005. She will be accompanied by the pianist David Maiullo.


Martha Eggerth is perhaps most famous for her performances as "The Merry Widow." She was married to the famous Polish tenor Jan Kiepura.  A long time family friend, she is above all, a wonderful spirit.

Celebrate her (and tell her I sent you with my best regards!)
