Review
At the heart of The Women Who Mapped The Stars is a drama about the desire of significant female astronomers to be heard and respected.
There is real suspense and pathos in this political drama, beneath the standard cinematography and pacing.
A resplendent and spirited revival of The Sound of Music in downtown Boston.
Mary Lee Bendolph’s designs are stunning works of contemporary design, lacking any taint of provincialism, with as much visual sophistication as you would find in any New York gallery.
Mostly the New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Festival ends up being about the multiplicity and infinite variety of cultures and traditions, including generic funk.
The performance’s excellent musicianship and many amusing moments were at the service of a relevant evening of commentary on the lighter side of the current news cycle.
An intriguing cross-disciplinary concept gave birth to a pallid, underrehearsed production.
Shining leads make up for a problem play that, in this production, has been further problematized.
Variations and fugues are the overriding themes of pianist/composer Michael Brown’s captivating new album. If you’re an Andris Nelsons fan, this Deutsche Grammophon album won’t disappoint, and a disc that features three pieces by composer Ferdinand Ries, who was friendly with Beethoven, is worth hearing.
David Lang’s score is hypnotic, and Emmanuel Music’s quartet of singers gave wonderful renditions.
