From the Top is NPR’s hit radio show, airing on more than 220 stations nationwide. It is a weekly, hour-long showcase of America’s top young classical musicians, ages 8–18, featuring performances and interviews. Hailed by critics as “the best thing to happen to classical music since Leonard Bernstein’s Young People’s Concerts,” this one-of-a-kind concert will revolve around the theme of Jewish Music and bring a family performance series to the Breman stage. The show will be guest hosted by one of the foremost pianists and iconoclasts of our time, Lara Downes.
Curator and Magician David London will share Insights and observations from the process of developing the exhibition, as he traveled around the country searching for keys to Houdini's passion, vision and spirit. He will highlight aspects of the Houdini story, with a focus on Houdini's early life and Jewish heritage. Various themes of the exhibition will be punctuated with magic tricks from David's performance ""Houdini's Trunk"".
