Score: Luciano Berio and heroic mythology. O King, the Sinfonia, and Claude Lévi-Strauss.
Boston Globe, January 25, 2014.
I also forgot to link to last week’s effort:
Score: A real-life diva gave Tosca some of its flavor. A menu via Sarah Bernhardt and Auguste Escoffier.
Boston Globe, January 18, 2014.
I'm kicking myself for missing the Berio show at NEC. When the winter months set in motivation is a hard thing to muster. Warm houses and slow-cooked food are a compelling 1-2 combination.
That said, there's no excuse. I hope it was a sweet concert, curious to know your reaction if you attended.
