About This Event
Cellist and songwriter Josh Halpern and pianist Yannick Rafalimanana perform Letters to My Daughters at Groupmuse NYC.

About Letters to My Daughters
“Letters to My Daughters” arrives at Groupmuse NYC as a small-room live set rooted in Rock/Pop, with featured performers Josh Halpern and Yannick Rafalimanana. Framed as addressed messages, the songs turn private correspondence into public record, tracing what gets passed down and what gets withheld. No NYC premiere history has been announced, but its format fits the city’s long habit of testing new work in informal, listener-close spaces. The plainspoken structure leaves little room to hide, which is part of its point.
