  4. Review: Zubin Mehta re-creates a night 50 years ago

    Zubin Mehta was not in exactly unfamiliar circumstances, either standing in front of the Los Angeles Philharmonic on Thursday night or in receiving honors. He first faced this orchestra more than half a century ago as a 24-year-old guest conductor. The Walt Disney Concert Hall program celebrated the 50th anniversary of his first program, on Nov. 15, 1962, as music director of the L.A. Phil, which he headed for 16 seasons.

  5. New Exhibit at UConn's William Benton Museum of Art Will Make You Rethink the Middle East

    Imagine yourself surrounded by eight individuals, all jabbering away at once at something or other. You'd hear bits of sentences, word fragments, syllables, spaces and breaths. Few long, well thought-out utterances would survive. Differences between the speakers' texts &mdash; and perhaps the speakers themselves &mdash; would fall away. The counterpoint would be almost musical. That's the feeling you'll get visiting Shimon Attie's <em>MetroPAL.IS.</em>, an eight-screen HD video installation on display at UConn's Benton Museum until Dec. 16. Attie scripted a hybrid speech, adapting segments of the Israeli Declaration of Independence from 1948 with the Palestinian Declaration of Independence from 1988. He then filmed 24 individuals from both communities reading passages of the script. The effect is a softening of the hard edges between Palestinian and Israeli identities in favor of their new, shared boundaries as New Yorkers. Whether or not you agree with the premise doesn't matter; we could all use new ways of thinking about the crisis in the Middle East. And that's what great art is capable of.
