...Carter Horn Concerto, which was commissioned by the BSO and written especially for Sommerville, for the second straight year. Sommerville played the one-movement concerto with mastery and confidence. The Carter is everything but Beethoven: like any other modern piece, dissonance, sharp tones, and 12-note chords appear in copious numbers. And yet, Sommerville still managed to achieve a certain lyricism with his superb playing. The orchestra, including marimba, plays a sparse role in the piece, as the soloist distinguished himself from the ensemble by the end. The BSO returned to familiar waters with Stravinsky?...
...spending time with the man behind the legend, he realizes that there is just too much to capture, that life is too rich to be commercialized. He sees that there is more to life than merely enterprise and decides to throw away the notepad on which he has scribbled copious notes, but to keep intact the camera memory that stores many of Kaminski’s works.

Is the committee simply unwilling to accept the consequences of their definition of the ICH? Or is there a problem with the definition itself, if it allows gastronomy to slip into...
...offense, with sometimes shocking moves that would begin winning weeks of news coverage. Call Obama an unprepared celebrity. Reintroduce McCain as a maverick and a change agent. Hit old Republican themes on taxes and spending. Run away from the record of Republicans in Congress and the White House. Make copious use of outrage and emotion. Rather than a single, unified message, Schmidt planned a multifaceted attack, which would be stitched together under the banner of "Country First," a phrase that both highlighted McCain's war-hero biography and suggested Obama was a selfish, pandering elitist...
