    People are Talking: UMS Presents Yuja Wang at Hill Auditorium [plus AUDIO]:

  • I was amazed that a 24-year-old pianist could play with such musical maturity as well as amazing technique. I could have listened to her encores all night. She is a treasure.

  • People Are Talking: The Cripple of Inishmaan:

  • I found this play to be entertaining and uplifting. The writing and acting, and directing too I guess, were top-notch. (I don’t know how to tell when good acting is due to good directing.) All the actors delivered their lines with wonderful timing and inflection. The accents and the local viewpoints were entertaining and I think it was obvious that the characters were not as simple as they appeared to be.

    I was in the back of the balcony and the volume of the voices was adequate, but just.

    Another delightful presentation in our humble city.

  • People Are Talking: Scharoun Ensemble Berlin:

  • The Scharoun Ensemble played wonderfully tonight. Their ensemble was excellent, the musicians all seemed to be enjoying themselves, and their musicianship was outstanding. And the horn player spoke perfect English.
