Inprint and DACAMERA join forces to host an evening of poetry and music honoring the life and work of Adam Zagajewski (1945-2021), an internationally renowned Polish poet and active member of Houston’s literary community.

The program will include readings from Zagajewski’s last poetry collection, True Life, interweaved with the music of Bach, Chopin, Shostakovich, Schubert, and Mahler that inspired Zagajewski’s writing.

Participating readers and musicians were some of Zagajewski’s closest friends: writer/Guggeheim Foundation President Edward Hirsch, Inprint Executive Director Rich Levy, Houston philanthropist Lillie Robertson, pianist/DACAMERA Artistic Director Sarah Rothenberg, and French cellist Sonia Wider-Atherton.
