Natalie Merchant performs a special one-off concert at the Fisher Center's Sosnoff Theater at Bard College in Annandale-on-Hudson, New York, Saturday night. Merchant will be joined by the Bard College Conservatory of Music Orchestra and conductor James Bagwell in performing songs from her 2010 Nonesuch debut album, Leave Your Sleep, as well as favorite songs from throughout her career. This special concert is a benefit for the Bard College Conservatory of Music's Scholarship Fund and the Preparatory Division.
