Jim Cornfoot, pianist, and Patrick Jones, baritone, present a concert of folk songs, arias, and art songs all about true crime. Indulge your inner sleuth and come experience the centuries old tradition of murder ballads in three locations throughout the months of May and June. While Dateline and Netflix documentaries might be some of the latest iterations of our fascination with crime, this obsession is as old as time, begging the question: Who could do such a thing?
