jfbJeremy Eichler's lovely article about Matt Haimovitz begins with this sentence: "Acclaimed cello soloists rarely come through Jackson, and when they do, they almost never perform at Soulshine Pizza."
The MATA Festival this year will include a program by Counter)induction, one of whose members is my college friend Doug Boyce. It was at Doug's... parents'?... house one... Thanksgiving?... that I first heard Assassins--I still haven't seen it, but Sondheim's songs for it are among my favorites in musical theater. Former theater critic Frank Rich's column this week is about that play and, as usual, the national mood.
Noémie Lafrance's new work, Noir, is a movie-inspired, site-specific dance in a parking garage. For a fee, you can bring your own car.
A. O. Scott on revenge dramas (among them, three of the top five movies last weekend). And Terrence Rafferty on Godzilla, soon to be released in a restored, uncut edition.
Same-night concert CDs of the Pixies, and other bands.
