“Love Songs” Concert

Petra van NuisThe Monday Night Concert Series continues with singer Petra van Nuis and pianist Larry Harris at 7 p.m. Monday, Feb. 10, at the Oak Park Arms, 408 S. Oak Park Ave. The duo will perform songs of love in honor of Valentine’s Day.

Van Nuis and Harris will romance the audience with the timeless music of the Great American Songbook.

Love-Songs-Concert-at-the-Oak-Park-ArmsThe pair shares a unique musical connection. Their shared aesthetic was immediately evident in their first meeting at a gig in 2007, and they have been making beautiful music together ever since.

They both have a passion for fantastic tunes, both well-worn and obscure. They strive to communicate that passion in an honest, straightforward way where the lyric reigns supreme.

Van Nuis and Harris play at all the top Chicago jazz venues, including the Jazz Showcase, the Green Mill, Katerina’s, Fitzgerald’s and Andy’s.

The Oak Park Arms is a rental retirement community which provides independent and assisted living apartments and a full schedule of activities and services. Furnished apartments are also available for a short-term stay – a weekend, a week, a month or longer.

The event is free and open to the public. For more information call 708-386-4040.
