Ithacan music and literature meet tonight at Cornell in a free performance by some large local luminaries.
The music is provided by Richie Stearns and Johnny Dowd. Readings are offered by H.G. Carrillo, J. Robert Lennon, and Lyrae Van Clief-Stefanon.
H.G. Carrillo is a Cornell graduate and the author of popular, if complexly-structured, novels.
J. Robert Lennon lives in Ithaca. His novel, Castle, was favorably reviewed in the New York Times this year. He is also a musician, and his self-released CDs are available at Small World Music, 115 The Commons.
Lyrae Van Clief-Stefanon teaches at Cornell. Her most recent book of poems, "Open Interval", has been nominated for the 2009 National Book Award for poetry.
The event is at Barnes Hall at 7:30 pm.
