A chance to hear the eclectic and uplifting music of the seminal British instrumental group Penguin Cafe Orchestra, played live by a band which includes members of the original ensemble. Jennifer Maidman and Annie Whitehead were both long standing members of the original group and collaborated extensively with its late founder Simon Jeffes.
Joining them in Simon’s Dream are some of the Hudson Valley’s finest musicians : Scott Petito, Jerry Marotta, Liam Singer and Jonathan Talbot.
Simon Jeffes started the original band after a series of dreams and visions warned of a dystopian future and offered an antidote: the magical Penguin Cafe, where a special kind of music could open hearts, re-connect souls, and lift the spirits.
