The production is a collaboration with Boston Baroque, borrowing their orchestra, chorus, and conductor, Martin Pearlman, who led an incisive performance, transparent and sharply accented.

Under Bewkes, units ticketed for unloading could include the troublesome AOL division and the cable outfit. (Variety)

    Feeling blue and loving it  Oct 14, 2007
    "Adding to Burrows's point is the fact that the NHL now has all visiting teams wearing their white sweaters. Ergo, colors never really change in each of the 30 rinks. For instance, the Bruins wear black each game - and long gone are the days when the Blackhawks showed up in their blood-red sweaters, or the Canadiens in their patented red, the Sharks in their teal.This has only added to the anonymity factor the NHL constantly bucks. In days of yore, as clubs came into "your" building, at least... (Boston Globe -- Sports)

    Janine Jansen , Aug. 5: Another contribution to the "Season of Dutch Arts in the Berkshires." The 29-year-old violinist seems to have overcome the idea that she's being touted for her looks rather than her playing, which teems with energy and exactitude -- so much so that in a 2005 recording she was able to reenergize the warhorse of all warhorses, Vivaldi's "Four Seasons."
