Karim Sulayman, tenor (and ukulele), presented at the Dauber Gallery by Liana Gourdjia and Mark Dauber on the 'Les Rencontres' series. After a concert of some traditional classical recital repertoire, Sulayman busted out his ukulele for a couple of crossover tunes - included was one of his all-time favorite songs written by Ewan MacColl for his soon-to-be wife, Peggy Seeger.
