The art of persuasion



presents

The New York premiere of

WHAT IS A HEART?

with 

THE PERSUASIONS

Wed, Jul 13 (9 pm)


The Persuasions, one of the world's greatest a cappella groups, were first produced by Frank Zappa in the '60s and have since released more than 18 albums, including whole records devoted to music of Zappa, the Beatles, the Grateful Dead, Bob Dylan and U2, recording and performing alongside the likes of Stevie Wonder and Lou Reed along the way.
They perform a very special set here in front of the NYC premier of the film What Is a Heart?, in which they're featured. The film, directed by Ted Bogosian, is a 37-minute exploration of Christopher Janney’s world-renowned multi-media performance art piece Heartbeat that features performances by acclaimed New York dancer and choreographer Emily Coates, as well as Mikhail Baryshnikov and Sara Rudner, with music by The Persuasions.
