...light, creating a striking final image. The following performance is the premiere of “Dystonic: Trio,” a work choreographed by Larissa D. Koch ’08. The piece begins with a virtuosic interpretation of one of Max Reger’s Suites for Solo Cello by Bong Ihn Koh ’08. Although Koh’s excellent cello playing is a hard act to follow, the choreography demonstrates a deep understanding of the relationship between tension and fluidity and allows the dancers to complement, rather than compete with, Koh?...
...think I don’t have a social life.” She perhaps puts it best when she explains the composition of her average day: “The whole day is work.” For serious pianists, there is often a choice between a solo career and teaching. “At this point, she is not ready to sit down and become a teacher,” Gorzhevskaya says of her ward. It’s clear that, despite the stress of competing, Nadzhafova loves to perform. Nadzhafova has prepared a diverse program for Sunday?...
...without the originality or heartfelt verses to back up its muscle-bound choruses. The album is not entirely a lost cause. The latter tracks offer more depth than the dry and predictable first half. A few nuanced production details earn the band some style points, like the cool Rhodes solo conclusion to “Begin Again from the Beginning” and the soulful cello in “From the Last, Last Call.” Unfortunately, these elements are few and far between and the band’s alternative songwriting equation seems to have stagnated after...
...Kominsky Crumb's Need More Love: A Graphic Memoir (MQ Publications; 383 pages; $30). Another in the long line of interesting female artists who get overshadowed and even vilified as a result of being married to a beloved male artist (in this case, Robert Crumb), Kominsky Crumb gets the solo attention she deserves with this new book. Need More Love delivers some of the most endearingly uninhibited comix ever put to paper...
...Genius.” It is the ultimate ADD-song, jumping around from vignette to vignette with no real story. The song starts with the tale of a small-town girl and then, suddenly, a city boy. Journey never mentions them again. This is followed by a rocking guitar solo, and then a new setting: a smoky room. What is going on? Whatever it is, it is fucking awesome. The chorus is equally frenetic: “Streetlights...people...whooaooooaaahhh.” WTF is lead singer Steve Perry talking about?!? Perhaps our generation, with our short attention spans...
