Review: Thomas returns to BSO with fiery Shostakovich Aug 19, 2009
Of all the Shostakovich symphonies, the Fifth is by far the most performed and has certainly acquired modern warhorse credentials, but the composer s generally peripheral status at the BSO - James Levine won t conduct his music - means that any performance of a Shostakovich symphony by a guest conductor becomes something of an occasion. Levine s avoidance of this music is telling about his tastes and in this case truly unfortunate for Boston audiences, in more ways than one can elaborate on... (Boston Globe)

Bang on a Can finale plays minimalism to the max Jul 27, 2009
NORTH ADAMS - The greatest shock in seeing Music for 18 Musicians performed is discovering how warm this warhorse of cool, cerebral minimalism can actually be. On Saturday night at MassMoCA, as the culmination of both the annual Bang on a Can music festival and a heady day celebrating the places where new music and modern art overlap, Steve Reich s towering 1976 epic rang out like a renewed statement of purpose: a postmodern hoedown of joyfully interlocking parts.

'12' puts Russian democracy on trial Mar 13, 2009
In "12," director Nikita Mikhalkov takes the old Hollywood classic "12 Angry Men" - a tense, minimalist warhorse about jury members hashing out a verdict - and repurposes it into a Slavic psychological epic. The new film's not only almost double the length of the original, it's four times as ambitious - a sprawling, surrealist, ultimately disturbing portrait of a society lurching uncertainly toward democracy.
