Songs by David Temperley
Temperley is a professor of music theory at Eastman School of Music, but in his spare time he has written over 100 songs. The style is a unique blend of rock, classical, and cabaret, with engaging melodies, witty and touching lyrics, and intricate piano accompaniments. The songs will be sung by three talented local singers—Lauren Gibson, Konstantina Gotouhidis, and Erin Teasdale—with Temperley at the piano.
