Concert | Johannes-Passion Preview


With the Trinity Baroque Orchestra and Robert Mealy, Concertmaster. Although perhaps not as vast or well known as the Matthaüs-Passion, Johann Sebastian Bach's Johannes-Passion is, for some, more dramatic and varied. This beautiful work is inspired by chapters 18 and 19 of the Gospel of John.

With Frances McDormand, Christian Bale and Kate Beckinsale. Harvard graduate Sam and his fiancée Alex move into Sam's mother's house in upscale Laurel Canyon, thinking that she would not be there. Only problem is that she is still there, supposedly finishing up a record that she's producing for her boy toy Ian's band. Sam's mom seems more interested in smoking pot and drinking than actually working, though. Alex starts off focused as she works on finishing a dissertation on genomics, but is soon distracted. Meanwhile, Sam is equally distracted by the beautiful intern Sara. 103 min.

Concert | Organist Gail Archer performs from her CD Bach the Transcendent Genius


As part of a year-long celebration of J.S Bach.s 325th birthday, organist Gail Archer plays a recital in tandem with her latest album Bach the Transcendent Genius, recorded on a Fritts organ at Vassar College. The CD pays homage to the genius of the Baroque era and is rich with offerings that feature some of Bach's most famous works including The Great 18 Leipzig Chorales. This marks the third consecutive year Archer has performed composer-centric concerts; she wowed audiences last year with her Felix Mendelssohn worldwide tour and during the 2007-2008 season her Olivier Messiaen: A Mystic in the Making cycle was cited as one of the Best Classical Moments of 2008 by Time Out New York.
