Smithsonian Folkways artist Elizabeth Mitchell returns to Maverick Saturday Nights for another celebration of the music of the late composer (and Woodstock resident) Peter Schickele.
This time she performs the 1967 Joan Baez album “Joan,” featuring orchestral arrangements by Schickele, who arranged and conducted three albums for Baez in the 1960s.
With songs by Paul Simon, Jacques Brel, Donovan, the Beatles, Tim Hardin and more, “Joan” is a haunting, timeless record, with rich arrangements blending brass, winds, strings, guitar, and percussion.
