...displayed a refinement of tone and maturity of timing in this small showcase, a performance matched only by their sound as an ensemble. After the sweet, yet eerie, intervals of Debussy’s “Beau Soir” (“Beautiful Night”), sung by Jaclyn B. Granick ’08, the first half of the evening ended with a feisty rendition of Brahms’s “Vergebliches Ständchen,” (“Lovers’ Quarrel”) by Laurence H. S. Coderre...
...confusing and confused as it is, there is something here, perhaps accidental, that manages to make it work. At first listen, the styles of the two groups struggle for supremacy and find little middle ground. ‘Cravo É Canela,’ a Milton Nascimento tune sung, bravely, in Portuguese by Oldham, finds him squarely on Tortoise’s turf, sounding nothing like the quiet musings or heart-rent ramblings one finds on “Ease Down the Road.” The very next song, a dirge-like take on Springsteen?...
...only thing that could have made his experience better was more medals - and fewer death threats. The Olympics might have made Ohno a hero in the U.S., but in South Korea he became a marked man when he was awarded the 1,500-m gold after Kim Dong Sung was disqualified for obstructing his path. (While trying to pass Kim, Ohno made an exasperated gesture that helped draw the referee's eye to the infraction.) Short-track skating is an obsession in Korea, and had Ohno been, say, Italian, his disputed victory might have made him a target of mere...

(While trying to pass Kim, Ohno made an exasperated gesture that helped draw the referee's eye to the infraction.) Short-track skating is an obsession in Korea, and had Ohno been, say, Italian, his disputed victory might have made him a target of mere outrage. But at the time, tensions with U.S. soldiers based in Korea were escalating, and the undercurrent...
...Harvard University Committee on Human Rights Studies Summer Internship Grant. There, he worked with the South Asian Human Rights Documentation Center, an NGO in New Delhi. Butler may be an academic force with a dedication to his thesis, but in typical Rhodes fashion, he is no bookworm. He has sung with the Kuumba Singers of Harvard College almost continuously since his freshman fall. He also played violin with the Harvard Baroque Chamber Orchestra and volunteers regularly at the Harvard Square Homeless Shelter. Butler was named a Harvard College Scholar for 2003-2004 and 2004-2005. He plans to study Jurisprudence...
