Phillip Mentor at The Bookhouse

The Eastern Monroe Public Library (EMPL)* in Stroudsburg, PA present renowned West Indian baritone Phillip Mentor along with Pianist Christopher Centrella* on Friday April 25th as part of their Bookhouse Concert Series. A small but supportive audience were treated to music from the legendary performer and activist Paul Robeson (1898-1976). It was an enjoyable evening filled with wonderful music enhanced by the magnificent voice of Phillip Mentor. Rob Ramos* and Linnae Criton* (both of EMPL) along with Arline M. Smeltz* were among the fortunate who attended the satisfyingly relaxed offering. The Next Bookhouse Concert at The Eastern Monroe Public Library will be New Jersey-based folk musician Mike Agranoff* at 7:30pm on Friday May 30th featuring music from his newly-released 3rd CD entitled, “Ain’t Never Been Plugged.” Please Explore The Eastern Monroe Public Library Website for more information.
