FREYNE, TUTTLE & THE GOP Vermont media presence was so heavy at the state GOP committee meeting last weekend I almost thought I stumbled into a Democratic activist workshop by mistake. And as soon as I spotted fairness and objectivity freak Peter Freyne (a sizable guy, by the way, not easy to miss) hunched over his little Jimmy Olson reporter pad hallway back in the crowd, I just about bolted. I don’t even want to be in the same room with one of his big-shot targets. It ain’t pretty when he starts zinging the nasty nicknames around. I’m definitely pro-civility. (Also unheroic, afraid of stray cheap shots.) Take Vermont to Etiquette School, I say. So I hung in there and I’m glad I did. Jack McMullen’s 60-minute presentation on party primaries, involving nationwide statistics and comparisons and relevant judicial rulings, all placed firmly in Vermont historical context, was a thorough examination of the issue and one of the best political events I’ve ever attended. It spoke well, not just of the GOP and the dedi cated, caring speaker himself, but of our whole shared election process. Not too surprisingly I suppose, Inside Trash, er Track, seems to perceive this legitimate exercise in

party government a little different ly. Mr. Freyne, apparently, has finally had his fill of Mr. “McMuffin.” He dismisses it all as one big, elaborate, long and drawn-out Tuttle Rebuttal. Which intrigues me. I can’t help wonder ing how we could witness the exact same scene and interpret it so dif ferently. One theory I have: By the time Penniless Pete got up, at least twice it must have been, and helped himself to refreshments — feeding at the Republican trough, would that be? — fully obstructing my view of “Millionaire Jack” and his impressive (low-budget, one might add) slideshow each time, we both had seen more than we needed to see to figure out who was up to what, and why, in tranquil Berlin last weekend. — Chip Haggerty Stowe

nations to install transponders on all warheads and give us advance notice of attacks. Sneaky stuff like delivering warheads on fishing boats, light aircraft, balloons and log trucks, etc., would be frowned upon as unfair. Defense contrac tors may still be stinging from the embarrassment of their demonstra tion of the Sergeant York tank two decades ago in which a tankmounted device for sensing the rotating motion of enemy heli copter blades instructed the demo tank to take out a row of Port-Olets fitted with exhaust fans, right next to bleachers full of Pentagon brass. The Bush administration demonstrated with the bogus elec tion the Machiavellian principle of the ends justifying the means. Sadly, one end is an attempt to return to the Reagan administra tion’s costly and bone-headed day dream of mutual suicide.

emerging global society and to help build a sustainable world based on respect for nature, uni versal human rights, economic jus tice and a culture of peace.” The Charter states, in part, that one of its objectives is to “protect wild animals from methods of hunting, trapping and fishing that cause... avoidable suffering.” The deer bow hunts scheduled at Shelburne Farms are in violation of the Earth Charter and show that Shelburne Farms hardly seems like the appropriate host of this worth while event. What a shame that Shelburne Farms enjoys “talking the talk” but not “walking the walk” of the prin ciples of the Earth Charter. — Sh aron M a cN a ir

ABOUT THOSE TESTS... Chris McDonald [“Live Man Talking,” August 29] should not be surprised at the recent “success ful” ABM tests. A transponder (a radar transmitter announcing “HERE I AM”) in the incoming missile virtually assured its inter ception, the degree of difficulty reduced to lobbing Velcro balls at a Velcro wall.

Ancient Indian philosophers remind us that we, as individuals, are constantly changing. It's part of our nature. Changes that occur within and without — compelling us to try new things. Like our new directions in hair cut, color, styling and makeup. Try softer and looser — masses of curls, a rush of shimmering, tone-on-tone makeup. Or try wilder — choppy, razored haircuts, raw, unexpected makeup shades. Re-imagine yourself with Aveda. Call to book your complimentary consultation today.

September 12, 2001

September 11, 2001 It is 9 a.m. on Tuesday morning September 11, 2001. A day that will live in infamy. Normally, yours truly is merrily tapping out the very latest on the Vermont political scene. We’d surely be writing about Howard Dean stepping down as governor while stepping up for a run for the White House. And how could we ignore Bernie Sanders’ moment of destiny — a rendezvous with an open governor’s seat? But we just can’t get there right now. Everybody knows why. You understand, right? Frankly, it’s hard enough to peck out these words through the tears that erupt this morning in sudden bursts and drip from cheek to keyboard. Ten minutes ago we noticed the flash bulletin atop the Washington Post home page — a plane had crashed into one of the twin towers of the World Trade Center (WTC) in lower Manhattan. Quickly, we turn on the TV. One tower is afire. A moment later an “Instant Message” arrives on the desktop from a friend on Capitol Hill. “Can you believe it?” he asks. Yes, we reply. We believe it. Faith is not the issue. Moments later,.^.second jet airliner slams full speed into the other tower. We watch, numbed by the images. And we realize B Y P E T E that somewhere at this very moment, there is cheering and celebration. Fists are being raised in triumph. Toasts are being made to the memory of the hijackers who so bravely gave their lives as holy martyrs for the kamikaze cause of their almighty God. The end, after all, always justi fies the means. Doesn’t it? On the tape player in the kitchen, we hear a Leonard Cohen song playing: “The wars, they will i be fought again. And the holy dove, she will be cut again.” And again. And again. Welcome to the new millennium. 9:30 a.m. We conduct an Internet search for the World Trade Center. The only page we can open is one describing the observation deck. It’s on the 110th floor. We learn the WTC was designed by Minoru Yamasaki. “On a clear day, visitors can enjoy a panoramic view reaching more than 55 miles. On the open promenade at the top it can be a bit windy at times. But with no roof, the whole world seems to open up. Sort of like flying while remaining on the ground,” it reads. Within the hour, both observation decks would be on the ground in tiny pieces. Fortunately, according to the information provided, the WTC observation decks don’t open to the public until 9:30 a.m. 10:31 a.m. It took the TV talking heads^O minutes to accept and articulate that the images on the screen, unlike those in Hollywood blockbusters, were not just those of collapsed towering infernos, but of human slaughter on a grand scale. Peter Jennings on ABC was the first we heard imagining the “thousands” of casualties. 10:47 a.m. The fax machine kicks on. Gov. Howard Dean calls out the National Guard? No. Not even close. The nation may be frozen in a time warp of ter ror, fear and anger, but Vermont State Auditor Elizabeth Ready has a job to do, by Jeezum. The twin towers of the World Trade Center may have crumbled an hour earlier. The Pentagon may be a roaring blaze. But Vermont’s newly elected Democratic auditor wants the press to pay atten tion to her big news of the day. Chainsaw Liz, a devout Sister of the Perpetual Political Campaign, announced via press release Tuesday that her office had found the state’s system for providing restitution to crime victims is sorely lacking. Nice work, Chainsaw. Lousy timing. 11:23 a.m. The last 35 minutes have unraveled

slowly. More like hours. More eyewitness, on-theground reports. More fear of bombs in schools and sewers. Americans from Burlington, Vermont, to Burlington, Iowa, wake up to a new reality. The planet’s true human condition has crossed the ocean and hit Uncle Sam, Old Glory and Lady Liberty right between the eyes. What a terrifying, pypnpent for the .loyqd ones of the victims. - ; My daughter works in the World Trade-Center. My husband was flying/American 77,:to L.A ■,..; r : My sister works at. the Pentagon. ' ■V ■ ■ •; My brother’s a New York fire fighter. Now they are indistinguish able from other loved ones who have preceded them: My daughter was shot in Hebron. My wife was shopping in Omagh. My husband disappeared in Bosnia. My father was beheaded in East Timor. My parents were vaporized in Hiroshima,. On and on it goes. It never stops, it never slows. The dove is always cut again. 12:02 p.m. Nothing’s exploded for at least two hours. And they’ve stopped talking about the jet that crashed into or near Camp David, R F R E Y N E Maryland, the Presidential retreat. At the moment, the networks report lour hijacked jet airliners down. Two into the World Trade Center. One into the Pentagon. One down outside ol Pittsburgh. No word on what that target might have been or what caused it to miss its intended target. As this death-filled morning becomes afternoon, we still have in the back of our mind the anticipa tion of a second attack wave. Surely the “master of the universe” who designed this terrorist attack, would have a second, even third wave planned. A nuclear bomb in a suitcase? Nerve gas? Biological toxins? Oklahoma City was just a cap pistol com pared to what we’ve already seen today. 12:32 p.m. CBS anchor Dan Rather just got emotional over stating the obvious. “No one will ever see that skyline of New York again.” Hey, if you can make it there, you can make it anywhere, right? 12:34 p.m. Where is the President? Peter Jennings announces a bulletin: President George W. Bush will be making a statement shortly from an Air Force base outside Shreveport, Louisiana. Jennings mentions how some Presidents rise to the occasion at times of national emergency better than others. We e-mail Carolyn Roy, a former Vermont TV reporter now working at KSLA-TV, the CBS affiliate in Shreveport. 1:15 p.m. The TV networks have just aired a video of President Bush from Shreveport. He may not have gotten the most votes. He may not inspire confidence. But he’s the only President we have. He looks stressed out and nervous. The ex-National Guard fighter pilot who bravely defended Texas air space from the Viet Cong calls the perpetrators of the day’s massive terrorist scheme “faceless cow ards.” Dubya promises the “full resources of the feder al government” are being called into action. “Make no mistake, the United States will hunt down and punish those responsible for these cowardly acts.” Somehow, we imagine the folks responsible for these cowardly acts are in seventh heaven right now. The FBI can’t even find Chandra Levy; how are they going to find the September 11 terrorists who brought down the twin towers of American capital ism? 1:27 p.m. “The only place in the country where we can find federal buildings open is in Vermont,” announces Peter Jennings.

Odd, strange, curious and weird but true news items from every corner of the globe

Curses, Foiled Again _ Police in Brockton, Massachusetts, charged James M. Jorritsma, 38, with holding up a coffee shop. When he fled, taking the cash register with him, two customers gave chase, easily catching him because he was slowed by the weight of the register and the cast Jie was wearing from a broken leg. Before calling the authorities, the two customers broke the suspect’s other leg. • Kristopher Huie, 22, was arrested in Johnson County, Texas, for trying to steal a freight train. Sheriff Bob Alford said Huie got caught after he managed to start the engine but had trouble releasing the brake and radioed Union Pacific dis patchers for help. A passing conductor and engineer, alerted by the radio call, overpowered Huie and held him for the sheriff. • Two teen-agers were arrested in Covington, Kentucky, after a police sergeant interrupted them stealing money from a vending machine. The machine was in the bar portion of the Fraternal Order of Police Lodge No. 1, which has the word “POLICE” in bold letters over the front door. Police Lt. Col. Jim Liles told the Kentucky Post the burglary attempt is the first anyone can recall at the lodge. • When North Carolina state police stopped Michael Dennis

Long, 30, in Mecklenburg ; County for speeding, he also received a ticket for driving on a revoked license. Eight hours later, a sheriffs deputy in Davidson County arrested Long fordoing 88 in a 70-mph zone and driving on a revoked

various drug-related offenses and that his.driver’s license had been.suspended. They notified Landecho to come to the sta tion to claim his wallet, but when he showed up with his teen-age daughter, a search turned up nearly a pound of

license. He was released on a $5000 unsecured bond. An hour later, he was stopped again and arrested for going 91 in a 70-mph zone, driving while his license was revoked and a seatbelt violation. After he was given a secured bond of $1500, deputies discovered the car he was driving had been reported stolen and increased his bond to $10,000. “This guy is a com plete idiot,” Davidson County Sheriff Gerald Hege said. Bad Luck Gets Worse When someone found a wal let containing more than $2300 in cash and turned it in to police in Watsonville, Califor nia, officers determined it belonged to Ricardo Landecho, 39. A further check revealed that Landecho was on parole for

marijuana, 33 grams of suspect ed methamphetamine and eight grams of suspected cocaine. Neither Rain nor Gloom William J. Henderson, who was the U.S. Postmaster General from 1998 to 2001, said he advocates privatizing the Postal Service, suggesting the government corporation raise its rates “at times of high demand” and lower them during tradi tionally slow times. His opinion piece in the Washington Post also questioned the Postal Service’s obligation to “deliver every where six days a week, at a regu larly scheduled time, making the delivery even for a single piece of mail, which is not costeffective.” He recommended restructuring the Postal Service to make it employee owned

through an employee stockownership plan. • Laurence Lyttle was fired from his job as a relief mail carrier in Isleton, California, after just two months when he failed to deliver the day’s mail because he went for a joy ride. Authorities said Lyttle was involved in two hit-and-run incidents: crashing into a fence near a marina and backing over a water main at a trailer park. While investigating the incident, postal officials dis covered an outstanding warrant for Lyttle in San Mateo County for failure to appear. “He had a lot of training,” Isleton post master Richard Webberson said. “We had high hopes for him .” Johnny on the Spot When police in Morro Bay, California, received a report of a man struggling to get out of a Port-a-Potty being towed on a small trailer at 40 mph, they found the man was an inmate from California Men’s Colony. Police Officer Rick Catlett said the prisoner wasn’t trying to escape. He was part of a road grew working along Highway 1 who stopped to use the portable toilet moments before a city truck drove off with it. Rick Grantham, who alerted the police, said he spotted the man opening the door and yelling “Hey! Hey!” to get the drivers attention. • A 63-year-old Austrian man

was trapped for more than three days in a portable toilet after fleeing from muggers in Vienna. When his assailants began chas ing him, he spied the mobile lavatory and locked himself in, according to the Kurier newspa per, but they flipped the toilet over with the door face down so he couldn’t get out. “He screamed again and again for help and banged against the walls,” a police officer told the paper, “but nobody heard him because it was a very busy cross roads.” After spending 80 hours in the cramped plastic container while outside temperatures neared 90 degrees, the man was rescued when he managed to break open one of the vents and flag down a passer-by. Baby Driver After a teen-age girl in Toronto completed her driving test, the examiner told her to park the car while he issued her driver’s license. As she pulled into the parking lot, the car went out of control and hit four vehicles, then spun around and hit two more and a pedestrian, who was talten to the hospital with leg injuries. The teen-ager also suffered minor leg injuries. The driving instructor was treated for shock. He also changed his mind about issuing the girl her license.

Terrorism Comes to

W ho'd a thunk it? "We met at the D aily Planet last November. A mutual friend's marriage was just ending and we joined her for support and celebration, For our friendl it was a significant ending; for us a significant beginning." — Rick & Beth

America B y A lisa S olomon . «v emerged from the Chambers Street subway stop at 9 this morning into a crowd gaping up at the World Trade Center moments after its top floors had burst into flames. Some people were crying, a few women crossed themselves, but mostly people were exchanging stories in that almost affable New York-in-a-crisis way, collect ing the tales that they would later tell their friends and maybe someday their grandchildren. Until the second blast. As soon as we heard the muffled boom and saw flames kick along the walls of the tower, we knew in our bellies that America was changed forever. I wanted to throw up. A panicky mob ran screaming up the street, some stopping two blocks north to gape some more. Theories started flying: “Terrorists,” though few could say which kind for what cause. Sirens howled and quickly the streets became eerily empty of traffic. We could see some small figures — something orange, something flapping white — hanging off the building. Could they be peo ple? The crowd let out a high-pitched primal squeal. I got the hell out of there. I headed east in a nauseous daze — due for jury duty at State Supreme Court on Centre Street, propelled by one of those defense-mechanism impulses that makes you focus on the thing that is absolutely beside the point. I turned onto Duane Street, soon finding myself passing the Javits Federal Building. I start ed to run. It might blow any minute, I thought. I spent much of this August in Israel and the occupied territories. I was there during the weeks the Sbarro pizza restaurant in Jerusalem was blown up by a suicide bomber, and left Haifa only a day before the bombing at a restaurant there. Though I witnessed during my travels through the West Bank and Gaza how those areas were the ones literally under siege, I began to understand the depth of Israeli fear. I lived in perpetual anxiety: sitting in a cafe, going to the grocery store, standing in any crowded area. Every time I boarded a bus I felt my heartbeat speed up. I never felt so relieved to return home from abroad as I did two weeks ago. At last I could drop the guard, leave the panic behind. Or so I thought. Jury duty was over: The court was closing. So I began the citizens’ march up Centre Street, merging with the throngs sent home. Cops waved us away from subway entrances and told us to keep walking. I fell in with a group of young women, administrative assistants at 2 World Trade Center.

One was still crying. She was about to enter the World Trade Center when the first plane hit. “Arms, legs. Parts of people. They were falling on my head,” she said. Her friend put an arm around her, saying only “Shhh,” and the whole block went silent for a moment. The third friend tried frantically to get a cell phone signal. A secretary to three vice presidents at a Wall Street firm that opens at 9, she typically starts work at 8:30. “I have to get their days pre pared,” she said, shaken yet proud, almost as if she expected to be there again tomorrow. “My subway was late today and for some reason, for once as the train slowed down and waited, I didn’t get mad,” she marveled. Her calls wouldn’t go through. Neither would anyone else’s. Block-long lines formed at pay phones as W TC workers tried to contact loved ones to let them know they were okay. As we trudged along — strangers talking like old friends, peo ple who managed to find cabs and offering to share them — I flashed on the grammarschool drills I went through in the ’60s. The ^ Cold War came to my Midwestern sub urban school in the form of duckand-cover exercis es and, once a year, a practice evacuation. We were let out of school early and had to walk all the way home, filing out in neat lines and heading into the streets, kids peeling off as we came to their neighborhoods. A real war has come to these shores now, bringing massive violence into America for the first time. The terrible human casualties of today’s attacks haven’t even begun to be counted yet. Some of the intangible ones to come are obvious — the First Amendment, for starters. The altered city skyline is only the most visible manifestation of the size of the change. I finally got my turn at the phone. There were three anxious messages on my answering machine: One from my partner. And two from friends in Israel. ® Ed. note: The terrorist attacks came as we were in production for this week’s Performing Arts Preview Issue. We are in Vermont, not New York or Washington, but we felt compelled to say something about this terrible day.'The Village Voice offered this eyewitness story and reflection to fellow alterna tive weeklies.

But what they won’t see on stage is the business balancing act that makes it all happen — the elaborate process of choosing, negotiating with, marketing and accommodating the artists who end up entertaining, and occa sionally disappointing, us throughout the year. Performing arts “presenters” do a lot more than shop around for talent on tour. “I remember when I was in college, I used to think people just decided to come and give a performance,” says Margaret Lawrence, pro gramming director at Dartmouth College’s Hopkins Center. “In fact there’s a whole group of peo ple working behind the scenes to make it all happen... Even when things go incredibly well, and the audience is on its feet, people wonder why I am crumpled up in the corner with a headache. It takes a lot of effort to pull it off — especially when you’re pro ducing something you’re taking a risk on.” That effort may start with the identification of an artistic expe rience, then move onto the logis tics of — and financial finagling involved in — bringing it to

Dutch, “and I didn’t know any thing about the historical charac ter it was based on at all,” she says of Marinus van der Lubbe, a little known anti-Nazi revolu tionary who set fire to the Reichstag. “But it was so com pelling. I went crazy. I was like, ‘I don’t even know what he is say ing, and I want to bring them.’” Three years of management mishaps, personnel changes, lost e-mail messages and English translations later, Lawrence final ly pulled it off. Early next year, the Hopkins Center is hosting the U.S. premiere of Quick Lime, by Z.T. Hollandia, with financial support from the Dutch govern ment. Two days later, the troupe will head up the road to Burling ton’s Flynn Center. Arnie Malina, the Flynn’s programming direc tor, was the only other American presenter brave enough to do the Dutch drama. “If you are the only one pay ing for plane tickets, you can just forget about it,” Lawrence says. Malina and Lawrence are among a select group of arts pre senters in the United States who travel the world looking for interesting performances. Both just returned from an all-expenses-paid week at the Edinburgh

not be an overstatement to sug gest the two New England arts brokers are helping to set a national aesthetic agenda. “It sounds so glamorous,” says Lawrence, who has also trav eled to Cambodia, Cuba, Israel, Russia and Japan in the past year at the invitation of various gov ernments and arts organizations. “But I have sat through so many horrible, horrible performances. The house lights go down, the curtain goes up and, within min utes, your heart just sinks. You definitely pay for the glamour of how it sounds to go on that trip... But if you can keep an open mind, something usually presents itself.” In Edinburgh Malina was

FLN2VN

Boy Brian Wilson and an excerpt from a prose poem by Gertrude Stein. “Artistically, it would be exciting, a real treat,” he explains. “Same things are so breathtakingly beautiful, you just feel like, ‘I want people to see this.’” But there are more practical considerations before Malina can think about booking an act for the Flynn’s next season. “I’m finding out if a) it can work tech nically on our stage, and b) if we can afford it. At a theater like the Flynn, it may take two or three days to load in, to prepare it, to make it look as exquisite as it is. If you have two additional stage hands working for two additional days, you are talking another $10,000 to $15,000 in costs just

to prepare the staging.” T hat’s no big whoop if a show ends up playing multiple nights in a single venue. You “amortize” the additional techni cal costs over the course of the run and, if the show is good, make up the difference on wordof-mouth sales. But unless the performer is Mikhail Barysh nikov or Lily Tomlin, the Burlington market is'generally considered too small for extended engagements. That rules out a lot of big Broadway productions. “We tried to get the Broadway musical Rent, but we are going to have to wait another year,” says Malina. “Some of the biggest things you just have to wait in line for. They go to the bigger markets first, where they can hang out for six weeks.” The Flynn is taking a chance with two nights of Russian skaters performing Sleeping Beauty on Ice. “We need 10,000 pounds of ice to transform the Flynn stage into an ice skating rink,” Malina explains, noting the St. Petersburg State Ice Ballet will be traveling with its own refrigeration system — in February, mind you. “It will take a full day to do that and a day to take it apart.” Malina laments he had to pass on one show because “the

technical costs were just out of sight.” Lawrence picked up the far side o f the moon, the latest multi-media work from director Robert Lepage, but admits it was “tricky” making ends meet. “Frankly I had to work really hard to find some funding for that. Otherwise, I couldn’t have done it,” she explains. “It takes them all week just to load the thing into the theater.”

echnical challenges can be daunting. The Flynn once had to truck in red dirt from a baseball diamond in New Jersey to meet the specifications for a show. But artists tend to be more unpredictable — even when their catering riders have been carefully negotiated in advance. Brazilian musician Gilberto Gil took 10 pages to spell out his macrobiotic meal requests, “but when the band showed up, they said, ‘T hat’s for him. We like to eat meat,”’ Malina recalls with a chuckle. “So we had to scurry around to find some roast beef at the last minute.” Weird eating habits are easier to swallow than escalating artist fees. Two years ago, jazz singer Diana Krall played a sold-out show in Burlington for $14,000. In the past year, her fee shot up to between $50,000 and $75,000. “The ticket price would have to be $75 to $100 for that expensive an act,” says Malina, conceding everything is nego tiable. Asked if he dickers with agents, he blurts, “Oh, wildly, extensively. I scream on the phone. I get irate. It’s hard to believe some of the prices that are quoted.” Typically, through, only about a third of revenue from ticket sales, grants and corporate sponsorship goes to the artist. “It costs about $10,000 to do a per formance at the Flynn without paying the artist anything,” Malina says. The supporting expenses include hall rental, stage crew, sound rental, security, cast expenses, advertising, box office and administrative overhead. “If an artist fee is $10,000 for a night, the total show budget

.might be $30,000.” With 1450 seats, that works out to be about $25 a head. Along with math, ticket pric ing involves a little psychology. Audiences are more likely to shell out to see .a popular dance company like Pilobolus than one they have never heard of, like Maguy Marin, exploring the kinetic concept of fugue. To that end, presenters try to program a balance of accessible and experi mental events. The safe bets end up subsidizing the risky ven tures. For every Itzhak Perlman on the Hopkins Center schedule, there is an Andrew Manza on baroque violin or a Huelgas Ensemble performing Flemish polyphony. Academic institutions — the Hopkins Center, Middlebury College and the Lane Series at the University of Vermont — can justify their offbeat offerings as educational. “If I can marry an artist I am interested in with an academic goal, I’m in heaven,” Lawrence says. Furthermore, they often have endowments to subsi dize the seldom seen. With the exception of one Vermont Symphony Orchestra concert, virtually any world-class per formance at Middlebury College Center for the Arts will cost you 10 bucks. The Flynn doesn’t have that luxury. Within each genre, Malina looks for a mix of famil iar faces — Youssou N ’Dour and Trisha Brown, for example — rising stars and unknowns to diversify the risk. The smaller FlynnSpace gives him additional flexibility. “It’s like creating a ^rand meal with many flavors and textures,” Malina says, not ing, “hybrid forms are rampant” these days as a general trend in art presenting. He points to a sub-series of shows informed by hip-hop as evidence of that. “We try to respond to the tastes of a wide community. We try to lis ten but also lead.” Implicit in that goal is a responsibility not to lead an audience astray. Along with doing exhaustive research, Lawrence rarely books anything

That’s the Ticket continued from page 9a she hasn’t seen. “There are cases where something is in the wrong venue, or suffered from a poor lighting designer. You have to weigh it all over. Sometimes you think something really sucked and everybody is on their feet. If I think something is awful, or really cheesy, I’m not going to present it — even if everyone around me is jubilant.” O f course there are times when it is simply not possible to evaluate a piece from the audi ence — it may not exist yet or still be a work in progress. Laurie Anderson’s May gig at the Flynn falls in that category. Reputation, and recommendations, go a long way in the arts presenting busi ness. “Let’s say it’s a flamenco company I have only seen on video. I might book them, but I would talk to some people first,”

Lawrence did that two years ago for Japanese choreographer Hiroshi Koike in Pappa Tarahumara. This year she organized a national tour for Warabi-Za, a Japanese dance company she has been watching for years. “You write for grants, you e-mail a lot, you try to find other presenters in the country who are interested, you apply for the visas.” Essentially “you have to act as the producer, agent, advocate and grant writer,” she says. “It’s a huge effort.” Even after all that work, though, there is no guarantee.a show is going to fly with the audience.

Honkins Center Lawrence says.“ I am constantly reading reviews, talking to peo ple, trying to get my hands on audio-visual materials.” Jane Ambrose at the Lane Series requests live performance recordings because she worries about audio “doctoring.” She is also very hands-on about pro gram selection. A professional flutist and music professor, she is not shy about rejecting pieces she’s not excited about. “This week I requested a change in the Miro String Quartet. They were going to open with Beethoven’s String Quartet Opus 18 No. 1, and they were also playing Shostakovich and Grieg. I asked for a Beethoven replacement and we agreed on a Haydn that was less well known. I want to chal lenge our audience — to provide something a little bit different irom the standard program ming.” In the past the Lane Series has been involved in “commis sioning” works for just that pur pose — contracting a composer to create a work that would not otherwise exist.” This year the Vermont Youth Orchestra is lead ing the way on that score.

The voices weren’t miked. “It’s the only time I’ve been embarrassed in front of an audience, and of course I was furious with the agent,” she says. “Ninety percent of it is as you thought it was going to be and 10 percent blows you away either positively or negatively,” Malina says. W ithout offering any specifics, he assures there have been “bad reactions” from audience members. “But any reaction is better than no reac tion,” he suggests. “I don’t mind if people complain, especially if they are offended or excited. To me, it’s an opportunity for dia logue.” Along those lines, how many jobs afford you a chance to chat up radio guy Ira Glass on the way to and from the airport? Or to witness Lily Tomlin worrying over a speech she agreed to give at a local AIDS benefit? “The arts experience is more than just watching a ’show,” Malina says. “It’s a community participating in this as well. That’s why there’s such a sweet satisfaction in seeing 1400 people leap to their feet. Ultimately, the experience is larg er than each one of them.” ®

to Montreal 500 artists and 53 choreographers from around the world for 32 productions and more than 100 performances, which include nine world pre mieres and 14 North American premieres. Dance enthusiasts who fre quent the Flynn Center will rec ognize many Quebec artists who have visited Burlington as part of the Flynn’s collaboration with Espace Tangente. Companie Marie Chouinard created quite a stir in the Queen City when a company member took a leak on stage. Scheduled for one of the grandest venues in Montreal — the Theatre Maisonneuve at the Place des Arts — the troupe will trot out two new pieces, Le cri du monde and 2 4 Preludes de Cho pin, exploring the body “as the site of all identities — animal, ' humarH heavenly, earthly and musical.” Fondation Jean-Pierre Perreault is also on the bill. When the company brought its epic piece Joe to Burlington a few years back, the Flynn had to build a sloping stage that extend ed out into the theater to accom modate dozens of dancers in

black trench coats. It was a chill ing portrait of conformism. The Fondation troupe will move beyond social relationships as subject matter to the interplay of time and observation, during which audience members — “vis itors,” according to Perreault — position themselves in a very intimate and privileged relation ship with what is going on around them in the four-hour performance installation. Another past Flynn visitor on the bill at FIND is the U.K.based Russell Maliphant Company. According to the pro gram bill, Maliphant’s studio operates “as a laboratory for movement in relation to light,” something he’ll demonstrate in Shift, a solo piece created in 1996 with lighting designer Michael Hulls. Shift is a gripping dialogue that links Maliphant’s dance and the simultaneous shadow it projects. W ith nothing on stage but a screen to give the body a second life, Maliphant’s elegiac dance unfurls very close to the ground “in a crescendo of complex movements, at First slow and internal, then broad and physical.”

Flynn Assistant Marketing Director Janice Hanson has already tapped this one as her “must-see” performance at this year’s FIND. As Maliphant is known for his wide-ranging experimentation with forms of movement — he’s incorporated elements of yoga, capoeira and contact-improvisation in his work — Hanson asks, “Who knows what he’s up to now?” Festival president Chantal Pontbriand notes that “dance, as a laboratory of the body and senses, now embraces all forms of bodily expression.” Echoing this theme is Nuits du grand labo, a

nologiques, FIND sponsors hope the events will compel all to “dance to the rhythm of uncom mon performances, where sound, gesture and projections come together in the spirit of nocturnal celebration.” These hot Nuits will start at 9 every evening at 305 rue Ste-Catherine Ouest.

or years, Denise Whittier has been entertaining Vermont audiences — star ring in Lyric Theatre produc tions, appear ing'with area vocal ensem bles and per forming in solo gigs. Later this month, she’ll debut a new contemporary cabaret of her own in “Story Songs” at Burlington’s intimate FlynnSpace. Relaxing in the sun shine on Labor Day morning outside her condominium at Northshore — the lakeside devel opment built by her late hus band, Rod W hittier — she is clearly someone who doesn’t mind relying on, or revealing, herself. Dressed in a flowing gold caftan, with chunky jewelry — “I decided to do the diva thing,” she jokes — the singer definitely looks the torch-song part. Whittier doesn’t mince words when discussing her technical skills. She gratefully acknowl edges that, at 53, she can still wrap her voice around a fouroctave range. Her fine musical ear allows her to learn music easi

ly and accurately. And years of hard work, she says, have helped her build on these natural strengths. But her face really lights up when she talks about how she pours her personal self

story, is what distinguishes her art. into her music. “I’ve always liked to rattle cages, to go for the sur prise,” she remarks. “Exposing yourself allows others to expose themselves, either to you or to themselves.” On stage, W hittier’s emotion al exposure helps her connect with the audience, she believes. “When I hear the audience applaud, I don’t hear, ‘You’ve been a good girl, Denise.’ I hear that I’ve touched them.” William Metcalfe sings with W hittier as part of the Vermont Gilbert and Sullivan Singers and has worked with her as a conduc tor in the Vermont Mozart Festival. He concurs that W hittier works hard — and that it pays oft. “She’s the quickest study I’ve ever worked with,” he

really read music. But Whittier’s real forte, according to Metcalfe, is her abil ity to interpret lyrics. “She has a terrific sense of presence, and of conveying what the song’s about,” he says. For Whittier, the process ol getting inside a song, of embody ing its story, is what distinguishes her art. “I’m definitely not a ‘ves sel’ for the music,” she asserts. “You’re always going to get some interpretation from me, some kind of subtext. The audience doesn’t have to know what that subtext is, but if I have one, you’ll know it.” Much of the unspoken sub text in the singer’s interpretations undoubtedly comes from her own life story. “You get to hear

But you don’t hear a trace of Massachusetts in my accent. T hat’s because of my musical ear.” Her oldest sister, Andrea, took piano lessons. Then her sis ter Janice took elocution lessons. Denise, then 9, wanted voice les sons. Her mother approved of the plan, but died before she was able to carry through. “And that was the end of it,” Whittier states. Her father, a postal super visor, was too busy working three jobs and raising five kids as a sin gle parent to worry about a little girl’s stage ambitions. Whittier s singing aspirations remained unrealized for the next 18 years. It was 1977, and she was pregnant with her second son when Lyric Theatre was holding auditions for The King a n d /. She and Rod were build ing some cabinets, Roots was on the TV and she suddenly started crying. “I told Rod, T may be crazy, but I have to find out if there’s something here,”’ she recalls. She learned to sing “Hello Young Lovers,” auditioned for the parr and got the lead —

beating out a field of 60. After that, W hittier started taking voice lessons. Over the next 11 years, she was the leading lady in 10 Lyric productions. “I’ve been a big fish in a small pond ever since,” she says, leaning back with a smile. Metcalfe confirms, “You would have to go a long way to find a performer as good as her.” er mother’s premature death didn’t just delay W hittier’s musical career. It also marked her emotionally. And in a way it prepared her for the next blow: her husband’s sud den death, in 1993, at the age of -47. W hittier’s childhood expo sure to grief helped her console her two teenaged sons. Her own support came from being part of a close-knit musical community. Eleven days after Rod’s death, she as back on stage, performing a oenefit "or the King Street Youth Center with the Broadway reper toire ensemble, Encore. “I didn’t think I could do it,” she remembers. But when son Read, then a college freshman, , returned to school after the funeral and went ahead with his work on a production of Guys and Dolls, she changed her mind. C o n tin u e d on p a ge 16a

Whittier credits voice coach Bill Reed with her ability to translate her own life experience into compelling song interpreta tions. She’s been studying with him for more than 10 years. Besides honing her technique, W hittier’s work with Reed addresses issues that are closer to acting than to singing. “Bill will ask, ‘W hat do you know about this character?”’ Under Reed’s tutelage, Whittier says she’s learned that the most effective singers aren’t necessarily those with the most training. Rather, they’re those “who sing from their heart, from their gut, from their sex.” And that’s the source of her own earthiness, she suggests — “not being afraid to dig in and reveal myself.” Reed confirms W hittier’s selfassessment. “Denise has a talent for singing songs that tell stories and bringing those stories to life,” he says. “She understands that being a singer-actor isn’t about being in a beauty contest for the voice, but about using vocal color and nuance in voice as an actor to make the song meaningful. She’s just really very good at that.” Reed ought to know. Brought up on Broadway and

educated at Juilliaid, he’s been training singers for 34 years. He currently splits his time between his studio in South Burlington and New York City, where he heads the musical theater pro gram at the exclusive Circle in the Square Theatre School, and runs a private studio at Lincoln Center. His students have sung with the Metropolitan Opera and have appeared in more than 200 Broadway shows. Alumni include two Tony winners — Cady Huffman, the leading lady in the run-away hit The Producers, and Heather Headley, star of the Disney stage produc tion of Aida. A number of his charges have also gone into cabaret, a genre that has grown more popular in the last decade, with urban restaurants opening club venues, universities offering academic courses in musical theater and entrepreneurial vocalists and songwriters looking for ways to practice their craft outside the mainstream o f theatrical produc tions. But the spotlight can be harsh. W ith minimal instrumen tal accompaniment, no gee-whiz scenery or thundering chorus line, the singer must rely almost entirely on herself to sell each song before a small, attentive audience. “Each song is a pic ture,” Reed suggests. “The cabaret singer gives the audience

a guided tour of a gallery.” With no script or plot to unite the performance,, the cabaret performer is also free to curate her own show — that is, to select, sequence and create segues between the songs herself Whittier has built “Story Songs” around pieces culled from CDs and odd bits of music found here and there. The result is a collec tion of relatively new, not-sofamiliar cabaret tunes that tell personal stories. The songs are meant to be sung in character

ends with the plaintive line, “And if you call me mama by mistake, I won’t mind at all.” Notes of remorse and rever- ^ ence are sounded in “I Almost Cry.” From the musical Big Blonde, based on the Dorothy Parker story, the song begins, “I almost cry to think of all the pain beyond these walls, to think that no one hears when someone calls.” The point of the program isn’t to plunge the audience into unalleviated despair, however, but

rator acknowledges, “l have a f roof over my head, I have a warm place to sleep. Some nights I lie awake counting gifts instead o f U counting sheep.” W hittier will be accompanied on piano by arranger Tom Cleary, with Rick Presson on bass. Whittier hopes to cut a demo CD from her Flynn shows and market the one-hour perform ance in bigger ponds like Boston and New York. Her ultimate dream is to do music full-time — maybe parlay her talent into

The source of her own earthiness, Whittier suggests, is “not being afraid to dig in and reveal myself.” , and, says Whittier, “to strike a responsive, emotional chord. Each song is a dramatic moment — some very sad, others intense ly funny.” One of the saddest songs on the program is Brian Lasser’s “Hello, Tom,” a portrait of vul nerability and dashed hopes in which a young girl calls a boy to ask him to her Junior prom. Another heart-wrencher is “I Won’t Mind,” about a woman who cares for a child who may or may not be her own. The song

w h a t ’s o u t:

to evoke in listeners a variety of emotions. “That’s what they come for,” Whittier says. In “Sepia Life,” by John Bucchino, a Southern belle con templates her first affair. “He Ain’t Mr. Right” gives W hittier a chance to bring out her bawdy side. And the witty, “It’s a Good Thing He Can’t Read My Mind,* by Christine Lavin, is great stand-up comedy with a melody. The show concludes with anoth er Bucchino number, the hymnlike “Grateful,” in which the nar

opportunities to travel, with a gig overseas, say, or on a classy ship cruising the Adriatic. But a year with the Women’s Small Business Project convinced W hittier to reserve these fantasies for the future. “Right now, it’s too scary financially,” she admits. For the time being, with a day job selling advertising for Business People Vermont magazine, W hittier is grateful to be able to do so much of what she loves best — connecting with audi ences through song. ®

Just por ing over the programs is a globe-trotting adventure. We cannot promise to have included absolutely every thing in this pull-out season calendar, but what we’ve got — the full schedules of the Flynn and Hopkins centers, Onion River Arts Council, Middlebury College, Lane Series, Vermont Symphony Orchestra and others — is guaranteed to keep you busy.

B-BOY'HOOD

Bill Shannon doesn’t let a disability get in the way of a good time — or a good show. The Pittsburgh-born dancer, now a resi dent of Brooklyn, has a form of arthritis that does not allow him to put his full weight on his legs for more than a few moments. He’s been on crutches since age 5. Now internationally recognized for his stunning body language and athleticism, Shannon lets his crutches in on the act, which also includes a skateboard and bicycle. Not since its urban-street origins two decades ago has breakdancing caused such a stir, both in and outside of the hip-hop nation.'Shannon’s singular choreography appears to “defy basic principles of balance and gravity, creating a remarkable kinetic world of its own,” according to The New York Times. Shannon, a.k.a. CrutchMaster, manages to convey the struggle and the resourcefulness of the disabled even while leaping through the air. Talk about fly.

P IA N O FORTE The year 1969 was marked by political and social upheaval, including the nascent women’s “lib” movement. Despite more than three decades of feminist achievements since, 1969 was also the last year a female won the coveted Gold Medal at the Van Cliburn competition. Until now. A 26-year-old Russian pianist named Olga Kern now has that distinguished honor — and she’s coming to Burlington. “It’s a big deal,” says Lane Series Programming Manager Natalie Neuert, who adds that the presenting organization is “doing all the Van Cliburns” — this year’s two Silver and single Gold winners of the Western world’s “musical Olympics.” Olga Kern, who grew up in a family of musicians and has already taken several international prizes, will play works by Schubert, Brahms, Chopin, Liszt and Balakirev this fall. The Lane is adding a second night — the first competes with Menachem Pressler’s concert for the Mozart Festival — in which “key” enthusiasts can go for the gold.

HALLELUJAH C H O R U S Not too many acts that began performing in 1939 are still going strong in 2001. So strong, in fact, they’re still collectively called “the James Brown of gospel.” The Blind Boys of Alabama — now aged 72 to 82 — got their start at the Talladega Institute for the Deaf and Blind, under the moniker Happy Land Jubilee Singers. With only a few detours, the quartet has been testifyin’ ever since. The act is known to produce pandemonium in their audiences, and we’re not just whistling Dixie. There’s a special poignancy to “Nobody Knows the Trouble I’ve Seen” sung by four blind senior citizens, but there’s nothing morose about their version of, say, Tom Waits’ “Way Down in the Hole,” or a spine-tingling rendition of “Amazing stage with blues great John Hammond.

It cannot be said that The Flaming Idiots are, well, stupid — unless you think juggling beanbag chairs, constructing a bologna sandwich with your feet or having anything to do with torches on stage are signs of IQ deficien cy. In fact Gyro, Pyro and Walter know more than every trick in the book — and they can quote Shakespeare or Kierkegaard while performing them. “Nobody is going to pretend this is Dostoevski,” says Hopkins programming director Margaret Lawrence, “but the more you know about arcane academic knowledge, the funnier some of their puns will be.” The Flaming Idiots are a lot more than just jugglers; they’re fiendishly acrobatic new vaudevillians and possibly pos sessed by the Marx Brothers. Or heavily influenced by the Flying Karamazov ones. Even if they’re silly enough to make your kinder gartener howl, they’re also pop-culturally clever enough to keep a hardened cynic in stitches. Call it funnybone-upmanship for the whole family.

Known for his deadpan delivery and surreal observations of life’s quirks, Wright is a leading light of late-night laughs, where he is a regular guest of Jay Leno and David Letterman. Now this comic genius brings his finely wrought humor and intellectual send-ups to the Flynn for a mirth-filled evening. Sponsored by

EARLY BIRDS Some things never change: Amorous lovers, lecherous old men, trou bled troubadours. In 16th-century Naples, the Commedia dell’arte per formed songs celebrating and satirizing society around them — including its ridiculous characters. Ensemble Doulce Memoire would have been called a “Consort of Voices and Instruments” back then, and in fact they still can be: The nine-member early-music group from France plays a variety of old instruments, often dresses the part, and brings to life a Renaissance repertoire in style. Doulce Memoire doesn’t just play and sing 400-year-old songs; they have actually re-created the various types of groups that frequent ed the courts around the time of Francis I — ensembles comprising “high” or “low” instruments for princely or more intimate concerts, respectively. “This is actually a very important European early-music group that hasn’t had much exposure in the U.S.,” explains Lane Series Program Manager Natalie Neuert. “They’ve won something like seven European equivalents to Grammies.”

PYGMIES A N D PLIES Ballerinas qneet hunter-gatherers in The People o f the Forest, the newest work from San Francisco’s LINES Ballet. The remarkable international project marks a number of “firsts.” It is director-choreographer Alonzo King’s debut full-length work, which pre mieres in Florida one week before the Flynn show. It is the first time a dance organization has commissioned music from a pygmy group. And it is the first time Nzamba Lela has set foot in the United States. The 16-member ensemble of musicians and dancers of the BaAka are among the world’s last huntergatherer tribes in the Central African Republic, and they rarely leave home.

FALSETTO W ITNESSES In case you hadn’t guessed, La Gran Scena is a pun on “the big scene.” And big is the operative word for this 20-year-old New York-based troupe of guys with stage names like Raquelle Scandale, Dame Erie Lakawana and Helena Handbasket, who can sing like the dickens and carry off costumes like, well, a Valkyrie. That’s right, it’s opera — inherently larger-than-life already — in drag, and even Leontyne Price is reportedly a fan. Hardly anything in the arts could be more ripe for spoof than opera; after all, most of the plots are laughable, the egos inflated, the acting melodramatic. That said, the “divas” of La Gran Scena play their parts with obvious affection for, and broad knowledge of, the genre. You, on the other hand, don’t need to know a thing about opera to enjoy La Gran Scena, but ii you do it will allow you to giggle with brows held high. Especially during the Wagner.

DA P IA N O Many musical geniuses could be described as eccentric, but t n l r Russian composer Alexander Scriabin takes the cake. An egomaniacal mystic who was convinced he was one with God, the deluded fellow died of a most ignominious cause: from an infected boil on his lip. That does not alter the fact that he left behind a huge, dramatic body of work. He’s just one of the composers on pianist Wu Han’s program next April, though; she’ll also perform works by Tchaikovsky and Rachmaninoff, who were no slouches, either. The program is a challenging one, but Wu H a-has the passion and skill to deliver Russia’s heaviest hitters with fiery finesse. In fact, she released an all-Russian CD earlier this year on the Web-based ArtistLed label. Winner of the Andrew Wolf Award for pianists who make a significant contribution to chamber music, Taiwan-born Wu Han is a powerful presence at classical festivals and performance halls worldwide. A favorite chamber artist at Middlebury, she’ll perform her first solo recital there in 15 years.

The Onion River Arts Council could hardly have chosen a more appropriate act than Rhythm in Shoes to, well, kick off its “Celebration Series” this year. Rooted in English, Irish and American clogging tradi tions and choreographed by Sharon Leahy, the dozen dancers make a joyful noise with simple instru ments: hands and feet. Village Voice dance critic Deborah Jowitt called their rhythmic maneuvers “inven tive, whistle-clean musical and spatial configurations.” Can’t tap, eir, top that. A six-piece string band helps keep the pace, though, led by composer-musician Rick Good and including blues musician Malkum Gibson, whose debut solo album was produced by B.B. King. For the r fall tour, Vermont fiddler Pete Sutherland joins in the fun.

'SOCIAL' REGISTER The documentary film and follow-up Grammy-winning CD not only lifted a veil on a vibrant musical cul ture of Cuba. Buena Vista Social Club propelled several of its now-elderly members to international stardom. The limelight is long overdue for these singers of native son, guaracha and island-flavored jazz, including Omaru Portuondo, the sole female. With a career spanning 50 years and a rich voice that can still wrap itself around heartfelt emotions, Portuondo shows no sign of letting up: Her world tour this year and next will take her from Canberra to Cleveland, from Buenos Aires to Burlington. And Hanover — the Flynn and Hopkins centers both jumped on the Buena bandwag on, and it was a good move. The “Edith Piaf of the Caribbean” comes norte next spring.

Ira Glass remembers when he covered the Exxon Valdez oil spill a few years back and was fascinated to learn, amidst the environmental devas tation, that wildlife rescue workers used Dawn dishwashing liquid to wash off the birds. It was the kind of quirky detail that continues to characterize his unforgettable reports on “This American Life.” Now heard on more than 300 stations, including Vermont Public Radio,, the six-year-old National Public Radio show is itself the subject of his show this month at Dartmouth College. The title, “Lies, Sissies and Fiascoes: Notes on Making a New Kind of Radio,” says it all. Well, maybe not all: Glass will let the audience in on plenty of creative secrets — and funny bloopers — that have turned his idiosyncratic program into what Chicago Tribune Magazine dubbed “the hippest show in the mainstream of public radio.” “Lies” is behindthe-scenes truth, storytelling about storytelling — and a chance to see as well as hear the Glass man.

By M arc Estrin onsider this a hitchhiker’s guide to the galaxy... of classical music. W hat do classical fans know that, say, rock, folk, jazz or hip-hop fans don’t? W hat’s kept them buying tickets since 1672, and record ings since 1914, when Beethoven’s Fifth became the first recorded symphony? Is there something going on in classical that’s maybe not so boring? That may be interesting, even ecstatic? I’d argue yes. Herewith is a quickie tour for the novice musical astronaut. Think of the Milky Way as the

great stream of Western classical music from the 10th to the 21st century. We’ll break this down into periods: Early, Baroque, Classical, Romantic, Modern and Contemporary. Approximate categories, but useful nonethe less. We know little of the earliest Western music — until church folk started writing it down at the first millennium. Two hundred years in, we find the first bright Western star: Hildegard von Bingen, a 12th-century German abbess and composer of heavenly chants. By the time of the Renaissance, music had grown sacred and secular, lovely and

complex, especially in the Netherlands, where Josquin des Pres was the undisputed king of EARLYmusic. Though it doesn’t feel so early to some — my fatherin-law thought music died in 1521 with the death of des Pres. The great trio of late Early music — des Pres and his teach ers Obrecht and Ockeghem — were geniuses who could weave musical webs finer than a spi der’s. They used no bar lines to mark the beat. Their time simply suspends, as intricately interwov en strands of vocal line flow on in unmeasured measure. All that marvelous counter point eventually produced Bach,

the culmination and end-all of the BAROQUE, the great explorer of spiritual geometry, the fabrica tor of space and time and, in the opinion of many, the greatest composer who ever lived. In his era — 1685 to 1750 — God was coming under attack by the new sciences. But the faithful Bach signed every piece Ad Gloriam Dei — “Glory to God.” He made enormous choral settings of biblical passions and Mass texts, intricate instrumental fugues and concertos and pieces for s q I o instruments, all soaked in coun terpoint and chorale. Around and behind Bach are the brilliant Handel and the less

er lights Corelli, Vivaldi and Telemann. It was a rich time, the Baroque, though ultimately all but the more complex Bach have been rearranged into shoppingmall music. It wouldn’t be brunch without Pachelbel’s Canon. A little further on in our musical galaxy shines Beethoven. Born 20 years after Bach’s death and living until 1827, he is “the man who freed music.” Freed it from what? Well, from “classical music!” More on that in a moment. Inside the broad genre we call classical music is the

CLASSICAL period — the last of

\ra*»

the 18th and beginning of the 19th centuries — and it was the time of the the greatest triple play ever: Haydn, Mozart and Beethoven. Perhaps Haydn was the teacher of the other two, and nearly equal in innovation. They provoked in each other new insights into sonata form and content, its contrast, struggle and reconciliation, from which nearly all subsequent Western music would spring. The symphony was born here, too, as well as the string quartet and other chamber music forms. It’s imaginative, satisfying music that always makes you say “ahh” at the end. But Beethoven outgrew those forms, that “classical” content, and initiated the ROMANTIC period. Here the gaze turned inward to the passions and fan tasies of the individual, manifest ing in varied musical forms. Among the luminaries worth checking out are Schubert, Berlioz, Mehdelssohn, Chopin, Schumann and Lizst. The brightest of them — the “third B” — was Brahms, who may have created the sexiest music ever, lush, lovely and insinuating. Then we see Tchaikovsky, Dvorak and the mad and maddening Wagner, out on the edge like a red giant. Wagner marks the twisted death of the Romantic period, toward

the end of the 19th century, before music’s evolution into MODERN. The harmonic com plexity of his world pushed the listener beyond any sense of key and the emotions beyond what Classical or Romantic music could evoke. ijjrhen came the explosion. Key? W hat’s that? Modern music did away with keys, and with the

and spiritual interstices of Jyloderu times. You may not like what you hear — no lesser light 7 than Leonard Bernstein argued that this dissonant music would never penetrate the human heart. But this is as real as it gets — the pain, tension and emotions of our ravaged time. Jjj To this day it is unclear if this “Second Viennese Circle” invent

consonance-trumps-dissonance mandate in previous music. New sounds issued from strange celes tial bodies: Schoenberg, Berg and Webern, all from Vienna in the first third of the 20th century. As Beethoven had freed music from the conventions established 50 years before him, these three freed music from the previous thousand years, from Pythag orean vibrations themselves. If you’re feeling adventurous or want to impress a date, take him or her to hear some 12-tone music — music without a key Experience the dark emotional

ed the music of the future or wound up with images so unbearable as to become a “black hole.” For there were many other, non-Viennese modernists who spurned such extreme methods and sounds. Giants like Stravinsky Bartok, Prokoviev, Strauss and Shostakovich still wrote melodies in recognizable, if more complex, keys, but with new forms and new rhythms. So perhaps it is they who best repre sent Modern music. That weird red-white-andblue star off by itself? T hat’s Charles Ives, an American oddity

beyond his last,..polytonal* polyrhythmic work, the world has yet to catch up. Leave it to the kids to tackle, as the Vermont Youth Orchestra does this season. All around us now, CONTEM PORARY music remains problem atic, impossible to define, its most luminous sources difficult to pick out. Some say there will never be another age with a HaydnMozart-Beethoven-Schubert event, if only because of the sup pressive influences of consumeroriented media and economics. Still, there are amazing composers out there, such as Penderecki, Schnittke, Ligeti and Stock hausen. When it comes to getting people to perform his music, Philip Glass may be the singlemost successful contemporary composer. W ith no traditions universally accepted, it’s difficult to establish nutritive ground. Contemporary composers are try ing to invent new vocabularies and styles in addition to simply writing new music — as the con cert offerings in our area suggest. Which brings us to our guide to classical musical — a unique and hopefully helpful performing arts calendar according to period. If you find a particular era of classical music intriguing, you can follow examples of it throughout the season. Or, you can experience the whole history of Western classical music in a mere nine months, and without straying far from home. Expand your horizons. ®

ow many stagehands does it take to screw in a lightbuib in the middle of a dance performance? That’s not a joke to Kelly Leary, who works as Master Electrician at the Flynn Center for the Performing Arts. A former dancer, the 30-year-old Monkton resident is responsible for keeping 200 fixtures at the Flynn — including the spotlights — burning brightly and aimed in the right place. In anticipa tion of the upcoming season, she sheds a little light on backstage life. Seven Days: What exactly do you do before a show? y . Kelly Leary: I’m responsible for the lighting and power distribution for the production, lighting being the primary thing. But I’m also responsible for what we call “shore power” to the tour’s bus, or tying in sound power. If the act brings their own lighting and dimmers... then I have to tie in their dimmers as well. Once the Fixtures are all hung and in the air, we focus them, and then there’s a cueing session between the light board operator and the designer. And then we run the show.

SD: What’s intelligent lighting? KL: Intelligent lighting is lighting that is con trolled via the console as well as a DMX [digital multiplex] signal... The lights actually pan and tilt and change color and change the beam on their own. They have their own motors inside the Fixtures themselves. There are basically two types ol lighting systems: intelligent lighting and what we call conventional — the standard theatrical Fix tures that have been around now for a long time. With conventional lighting, the stagehands have to actually focus the lights; they have to be at the light, touching the light with a wrench. The intel ligent fixtures, once they’re plugged in, through a series of commands on the console you pan them, you tilt them, and you change the color. SD: The Flynn does not have an intelligent sys tem at this point? KL: Im very impressed with the way we keep things going, but, no, we only own conventional Fixtures. Only the large acts have the intelligent lighting systems. But it’s in the future for all regional theaters... It’s a big step, and lighting has taken tremendous steps in the past 30 years to begin with, but it’s certainly another big budget ary step.

SD: What type of acts do you like to set up lighting for? SD: You have some assistants to help you with KL: I get to see them all, but the dance companies all of this? are my particular favorites. From the lighting KL: Absolutely. It varies; it may be as many as 10 viewpoint, they’re generally more involved and people on the electrics crew or as few as two, precise as to what they’re after. And the larger depending on the size of the show. It may be a musical acts that have the intelligent lighting, it’s comedian in front o f the main curtain, so that always interesting to see what the designer has would require very little lighting. O r it may be a _been able to achieve with the particular Fixtures. full-fledged Broadway production, or a huge The Trisha Brown Dance Company is opening the musical act that has what we call “intelligent light season, and it looks like it’s going to be a nice ing.” It can take a few hours to half a day to set lighting show. things up, depending on how detailed and precise the lighting is, and how many Fixtures are in their SD: Do you have a special degree or training plot; sometimes it can take a full eight hours just for your job? to get the plot focused. KL: I have a BFA from North Carolina School of the Arts.

SD: How did you get into the electricity side of things? KL: That’s a long story... but it started on the other end as a performer. Through college, while working lor modern dance companies, and doing low-budget performances, I ended up picking up the wrench and focusing the lights myself, and fell in love with it... I later worked as a stagehand out in San Francisco, and then I moved to New York and started working at the Brooklyn Academy of Music. You start working as a “permit worker” when you’re dealing with a union. Then from there you apply to join the union when you reach the qualified level of skills that you need. SD: So you now have a first-class electrician’s license in Vermont? KL: No, I don’t. The traditional term in the the ater is to call the position M.E. — master electri cian. But it does not involve any formal licensing from the state here. I am a member of the stage hands’ union here. SD: So to do electrical work such as upgrading a line, the Flynn brings in outside contractors? KL: Correct. We do have contractors who come in if extra circuits are necessary. Basically I maintain all the existing equipment, circuits and cables. SD: Do lights blow out during a show? KL: Absolutely, that’s why there are always back up systems. Lights just stay in there until they blow. You can never tell when. The average cost of a bulb for our Fixtures is about $19, with the Fresnels being more expensive. SD: What are the best and worst things about your job? KL: I guess when something in the lighting department goes wrong during the show... that would have to be the worst. And the best is easy: coming to w ork‘in a theater every day. — George Thabault

upended by the whale’s tail and its crew tossed into the water. One man drowned and another, Bartley, could tiot be found. The whale was killed and hauled to the side of the ship, where the crew set to work carving up the carcass. The next morning they hoisted the stom ach on deck and were surprised to see signs of life. Inside they found the unconscious Bartley, who they doused with seawater and soon revived. For two weeks he was a raving lunatic, but by the end of the third week he’d fully recovered. Bartley recalled being swallowed by a great dark ness, then slipping along a smooth passage until, he Dear Cecil, came to a larger space.

Schwartz, Hazelwood, Missouri (.Investigations on Cetacea, 1993). Here’s what they say: (1) The story has appeared over the years in numerous publications, both secular and religious. An 1896 story in Walter first put this question to Skeptical Inquirer mag The New York Times gives essentially the account above and azine, which sent him to me with the comment “If you can says it came from “The Mercury of South Yarmouth, get an answer to this question anywhere, it will be here.” England, in October 1891,” but it sounds a little skeptical.

405-pound squid was removed intact from the belly of a sperm whale. (5) In 1906, Lloyd’s of London reported that Star o f the East, a British ship, had set sail from Auckland, New Zealand, in December 1890 and arrived in New York in April 1891, so it might have been near the Falkland Islands in February. However, it was not a whaling ship and there was no James Bartley on the crew list. (6) Also in 1906, the wife of J.B. Killam, captain of the Star o f the East, wrote that she’d been with her husband all the years he commanded the ship and that no one had been lost overboard during that time. “The.sailor has told a great sea yarn,” she said. What do we make of all this? Davis speculates that the story was cooked up by some pale fellow to take advantage of publicity surrounding the Gorleston whale exhibition and that it’s been passed along by the gullible ever since. He’s probably right — how could anyone survive overnight in a whale’s stomach without suffocating? But in the absence of a smoking gun, or a quotation from Bartley, I guess we’ll never know for sure.

pendent streak just keeps shining through, eh? 1:35 p.m. Dubya may be in hiding at an undisclosed location, >■ but Sen. Joe Biden is on TV, standing arms crossed in front of the Capitol, calling for calm. About time someone did, eh? “Terrorism only wins,” says the Delaware senator, “when they ' alter our civil liberties or shut down our institutions.” Never thought much of Joe Biden until this moment. And then in reference to the terrorist violence Americans only see on their television sets, he added, “We’ve come face to face with the new reality.” 2 :1 0 p.m. Another fax comes into “Inside Track ’ headquarters. It’s a press release announcing “National 9-1-1 Day is recog nized in Vermont.” Vermont has been recognized as having the best statewide enhanced 9-1-1 program in the nation. There had been a press conference scheduled for Tuesday morning. What a coincidence, eh? 2 :1 5 p.m. Carolyn Roy emails us back from Shreveport, Louisiana. “It’s just CRAZY!!!!,” she writes. Her station’s satellite truck was used as the pool truck for the press traveling with President Bush. “What a terrible day,” writes Carolyn. “But also an incredible day. In fact ‘incredible’ couldn’t be a more perfect word.” Amen. 2:17 p.m. British Prime Minister Tony Blair goes before the TV cameras in London. Unlike Dubya, Mr. Blair appears calm, confident and determined. “Their barbarism will stand as their shame for all eternity,” said Blair of the anonymous perpetra tors. “This mass terrorism is the new evil in our world. ” Mr. Blair spoke with elo quence and backbone. “This is not a battle between the United States of America and terrorism,” noted Blair, “but between the free and democratic world and terrorism. We in Britain stand shoulder to shoulder * with our American friends in this hour of tragedy and we, like them, will not rest until this evil is driven from our world.” Thank you, Mr. Prime Minister. Hail Britannia! Where the hell’s our President? His absence from the world’s stage is making me nerv ous. 2 :2 5 p.m. On NBC, Tom Brokaw has now firmly taken the inchor reins from Katie Couric. He’s been positioned with a pic aresque background of the imoking scene of the mornings nass murder. Over on CBS, Dan Rather emains his usual melodramatic ;elf. Carefully he paces his speech pattern for dramatic effect..His :yes moistened earlier as he recit ed a part of a Civil War poem. >oap Opera Dan. On ABC, Peter Jennings coninues-to be one cool cucumber. The Canadian-born Jennings was

at the controls early, and he’s been consistently calm and collected. No panic. We appreciate that. Thanks, Pedro. 2 :3 3 p.m. New York Gov. George Pataki and New York Mayor Rudi Giuliani face the media. It was “an attack on free dom and our way of life,” says Pataki. “One of the most heinous acts in world history,” adds Giuliani. They look composed and call for calm. They assure everyone that New Yorkers would pull together and meet this challenge. The subways, notes Mayor Rudi, are still working. It’s good news on the baddest news day in mem ory. 2:53 p.m. On CBS, Dan Rather gives a Texas pep talk for George W. Bush. “He’s the commander in chief. He’s in charge,” says Dan, with an air of Longhorn patriotism. Rather defends Dubya from crticism of the lengthening Pres idential absence. Unfortunately, Dan doesn’t know where the President is, either. 2 :5 8 p.m. Locally, ABC 22 breaks in with anchorman Eric Greene announcing most of University Mall is about to close. A prayer service is planned at the Unitarian Church at the top of Church Street for 7 p.m. Gov. Dean, he says, told reporter Keith Baldi, “It’s war!” 3 :0 0 p.m. ABC reports the President has landed at an Air Force base in Nebraska. He’s on the run in his own country? But the President is not a running back, he’s our quarterback. Does anyone know where Bill Clinton is right now? 3 :0 3 p.m. Ch. 5 breaks in with twin anchors Stephanie Gorin and Thom Hallock. They show a tape of Ho-Ho making “Pearl Harbor” references. Gov. Dean calls for blood donations and asks people to get off the telephones. 3 :1 8 p.m. Still no informa tion on the plane that went down in Pennsylvania. “This is a dark day in this country,” says Brokaw. Prominent people went down on the hijacked planes, he says, but no names have as yet been offi cially released. Bush, it’s announced, will have a teleconfer ence with the National Security Council this afternoon. That’s nice. 3 :4 5 p.m. The president’s spokeswoman, Karen Hughes, is on camera announcing Busft is in Omaha.”No one should doubt our country’s resolve,” she says before departing quickly without taking questions. Following Hughes’ statement, Jennings accurately and politely remarks, “There’s not a whole lot of news in there.” 4 :3 0 p.m. Deadline time for Seven Days. Still no Bush sight ings. To say we’re not concerned is an understatement. Weeks of funerals lie ahead. Stories of heart-warming human heroism will emerge. Calls for revenge will ring louder and loud er. More blood will flow. What can we learn from this? ®

PEDAL PUSHER Robert Randolph is so cool he’s even got a feature article in this month’s Esquire, never mind accolades in the music press. So why are the church elders so grumpy? Randolph is the “sacred steel’’ player in the House of God Church in Orange, New Jersey, and that Pentacostal ministry is none too pleased that their musical son is driving secular downtown crowds into a frenzy fueled more by alcohol than the Lord. Still, Randolph is just the latest in a long line of musicians — including Sam Cooke, Aretha Franklin and Al Green — who transplanted the pas sions of gospel to the nightclub. And if his current tour is any indication, he’s not through yet. Randolph and his Family Band share the stage with funky groover Topaz this Thursday at Higher Ground.

Skies Records, CD) — Bluegrass mandolinist, guitarist, fiddler and ace vocalist Tim O ’Brien has been musically exploring his own Irish roots since 1999, and the listening audi ence is the beneficiary of his research. In 1999 he struck artistic gold with an album entitled The Crossing. O ’Brien put together an amazing mix of musicians from both sides of the Atlantic (including Earl Scruggs, Seamus Egan, Del McCoury, Altan, Kathy Mattea, Paul Brady and Maura O ’Connell), and produced a recording that deserves the compliment of being labeled “neither here nor there.” It is anchored solidly in both Irish and Appalachian acoustic music traditions, and at the same time comfortably in between. O ’Brien continues his quest on a new album, Two Journeys, scheduled for release near the end of this month. Two Journeys is a collection of 14 meticu lous performances by O ’Brien, backed up by, among other notables, Bothy Band alums . Kevin Burke, Triona NiDhomhnaill and Paddy Keenan on fiddle, keyboards and uillean pipes, respectively, Irish folk divas Karan Casey and Maura O ’Connell, Louisiana but ton-box master Dirk Powell and rising star Michael McGoldrick on flute and whistles. Happily, the result is not a mish-mash of the sort you might find on one of Paddy Moloney’s wilder experiments with The

and vocoder vocal effects. This record is jampacked with ascending chord progressions combining guitar and keyboard jam stylings and pop-o-licious choruses, and the songs seem designed to melt the heart of even the most cynical cynic. As Self Portrait progresses, Contraption move more into the hippie-ish jam realm while maintaining one foot firmly in the jazz camp. It’s hard to pin down exact ly what they do, but it sounds nice. Guitar, bass, drums and keyboard are the basic elements here, and the production in clean and crisp. Every once in a while the band rocks out, like on “Scenes From the Qcean,” and even kick the skronk — with horns included — at the end of the instru mental “Letters From Bobby Portugal.” You can look for these guys to pull in fans from all sectors of the music listening spec trum — they’ve got quite an impressive melt ing pot going on here. By incorporating so many elements of various jam-based styles, Contraption manages to sound familiar and fresh at the same time. Well done. — Colin Clary

released, CD) — Formed in Poultney, Vermont, Contraption are an eclectic fourpiece band that plays an upbeat mix of poppy, jazzy, jammy, folky and funky rock. In just 11 tracks their debut CD, Self Portrait, covers all these bases with equal parts fun and adventure. After the opening acoustic instrumental, “Suddenly Silent pt. 1,” a ’60s-ish folk freakout, Contraption change direction almost immediately. “Lembo” is silly and Phishesque and really catchy, showing a knack for the hooky and comfortable chorus against a backdrop of funky, accomplished musicianship. “The Levenger,” which might be my

favorite here, sounds a bit like Joe Jackson gone calypso. Almost every tune makes you want to smile in a goofy, unself-conscious manner. It’s giddy-goofy, but good and seri ously musical in a music-geek way. “Million” is an up-tempo, electronic raga complete with ’80s-style whip-crack drums

Chieftans. (Thinking about Mick Jagger’s version of “The Long Black Veil” with Irish trad backup still gives me the cold sweats). My favorite so far is a song called “Mick Ryan’s Lament,” a ballad about an Irish sol dier at the Little Bighorn set to the tune of “Garryowen,” a Irish jig that was the march-ing song of Custers ill-fated 7th Cavalry. He’s pushing it to hang a Celtic tag on the album’s title track. It’s a dedication to Cajun fiddler Dewey Balfa, which O ’Brien justifies by tying the Acadians in with the Celtic influence in northwestern France, to John Lennon’s “Norwegian Wood” — references are given to Lennon and McCartney’s Irish background — and to Liverpool’s role as a major gateway for Irish emigrants looking for work. Still, O ’Brien’s new album is full of beauti ful music performed in a wide variety of styles. He uses his guest performers as if he were an experienced oil painter or a well-sea soned chef, blending and melding to create a musical sum in which you can’t always recog nize the original colors and spices, but you like the color and the taste. O ’Brien kicks off the After Dark Music Series September 21 at the United Methodist Church in Middlebury, with guitar and banjo player Darrell Scott, one of his regular musical partners and a player on Two Journeys. Fans of Irish music should not miss it. — Robert Resnik

he story of the Salon des Refuses is fairly well known. In 1863 the annual juried exhibition at the Louvres Salon d’Apollan rejected 4000 submitted pieces, and the ensuing controversy prompted Emperor Napoleon III to sanction an alternative exhibition of the rejected work. To much of the intelligentsia, the Salon des Refuses was the supe rior of the two shows. It included work by Cezanne, Monet, Whistler, Pissarro and Manet, among others. A painting of drunken priests by Gustav Courbet had the honor of being rejected by both Salons. The 9th annual South End Art Hop in Burlington also has parallel shows — though without such con troversy — in the Maltex Building on Pine Street. Sponsored by the South End Arts and Business Association, the Hop has grown over nine years into one of the areas most dynamic visual arts events, with open studios and weekend exhibitions in dozens of venues south of Main Street. The Flynndog Gallery, Church and Maple, Union Station and other sites will retain their Art Hop shows for the entire month of September. The Maltex Building is the flagship venue, and a juried show at Cafe Piccolo spills into the hallway. A mini Salon des Refuses in the rest of the building features pieces by many of the other 70 participating artists.

September 12, 2001

Once upon a time a headbanger made it to the top of the rock world and bottomed out. Mark Wahlberg plays the front man in an ’80s tribute group in this fractured fairy tale from director Stephen Herek. A blue-collar devotee of the mega-successful hair band Steel Dragon, he toils as an office-machine repairman by day then dons leather pants, mascara and an English accent at night to step into the role of his god, Bobby Beers, the Dragons Jagger-lipped lead singer. His girlfriend, played by Jennifer Aniston, is so supportive she even serves as the groups manager and PR person. Wahlberg’s band mates, on the other hand, are wearying of the high-decibel charade. They eventually take a stand and demand to start writing and performing their own songs. When Wahlberg recoils, he’s promptly given the knee-high Kiss-style boot. In the real world, this might be the point in such a character’s life when he abandons his boyhood obsession, gets a real job and otherwise grows up. In the artificially sweetened universe of Herek’s film, however, it’s the exact point at which the telephone rings and members of the real Steel Dragon offer him a chance to replace Beers himself, whom, coinciden tally, they’ve just ejected. Turns out a couple of local groupies videotaped a performance of Wahlberg’s band, somehow made their way into the act’s inner circle and, improbably, wound up screening the tape for it. This kind of thing happens so often to Wahlberg’s character, you’d swear he was being followed around by a fairy godmother. In virtually every motion picture ever made about the rock ’n’ roll lifestyle, it has been viewed by respon sible adults as something to keep the kids as far away from as humanly possible. That is, after all, its initial and fundamental appeal to the adolescent. Wahlberg’s character lives in a magic kingdom, though, where the parents couldn’t be happier to watch their son grow his hair and rehearse heavy metal tunes in a porno theater basement year after year, well into his twen ties. They’re like pod people from planet Ozzie or something. They just couldn’t be more psyched. They gleefully attend his low-budget homegrown shows. They just as blissfully behold his rise to the real thing, obliviously boogying down at a Kubrickian nightclub following his Steel Dragon debut, even as the band’s members and entourage just a few yards away initiate him into, the high-risk club of sex, drugs and rock ’n’ roll.

THE CLOSET In the latest comedy from French director Francis Veber, Daniel Auteil finds himself in dan ger of losing his wife, his son and his job because he’s boring, and so concocts a rumor — that he’s gay — to make him seem more mysterious

There’s sweetness to the support shown by the young man’s parents, certainly. At first glance, the departure from The cliche (think John Travolta’s home life in the early scenes of Saturday Night Fever) is refreshing in contrast to, say, the worrywart approach taken by the more traditional mother Frances McDormand played recently in Almost Famous — a mother who feared for the safety of her son though he was only about to interview a hard-partying rock band, not join one. Rock Stars departure from cliche might have made for a story unique in the annals of Hollywood had the film not then gone directly about the business of proving it true. Faster than you can say Tommy Lee, Wahlberg is swallowed whole by the monster of excess, his relationship with Aniston is undermined, and the innocent joy he exuded on joining the Dragon dissipates into sneering addle-mindedness. Maybe Frances McDormand was right after all. There are nice small moments in the story, though, both on Wahlberg’s way up and his way back down. And, naturally, the behind-the-scenes baccha nalia will provide a vicarious thrill for audience mem bers who have not already seen pretty much the same thing in every rock saga from The Doors to Spinal Tap. The best parts of the picture, the scenes that revisit the smallest amount of familiar ground, are those between Wahlberg and the band’s road manager, Mats. He’s a curdled troll of a sage brought to vivid life by the wonderful English actor Timothy Spall. His is a fabulous character, and his sermons concern ing life on the road are more entertaining than any thing we actually see take place there. The participa tion of certain real-life rockers — for example, Jason Bonham, son of the late Led Zeppelin drummer John — inject a degree of curiosity value, too. The bottom line, though, is that Rock Star wants to have it both ways and can’t. It can’t present the arena-rock lifestyle as some kind of wholesome Holy Grail and then bill itself as a serious cautionary tale. And it can’t propel its hero to the pinnacle of success on the strength of his gift for mouthing another per son’s lyrics and then posit the moral of the story as “You’ve got to sing your own special song.” Herek’s hair-band fable offers an occasionally amusing look at life in the fast lane, but is way too confused and fluffy to take seriously. An old-fashioned fairy tale dressed up in Spandex, it couldn’t have been less surprising if an invisible narrator had intoned at the end, “and they lived happily ever after.” (7)

Tun brid ge W o rld ’s Fair

he girlie shows are gone, but almost everything else at the Tunbridge World s Fair is as it was 130 years ago — from the exaggerated title to the “cavalcade of livestock parade.” Agriculture still dominates the four-day fair that marks the official end of summer in Vermont. But if tractor contests and oxen pulls aren’t your style, there are also rides, games, music, contra dancing and, of course, the demolition . derby. A fresh look at native son Fred Tuttle may be reason enough for a day trip to Orange County. Maybe he could be convinced to join the gang running for governor. . . Tunbridge W orld’s Fair.

yankee doodles John Singleton Copley, Thomas Cole and Hiram Powers may be old American mas ters, but their unique views captured the self-awareness and optimism of a youth ful nation. That’s the curatorial notion, anyway, behind “Young America”— a major exhibition on loan from the Smithsonian that opens this weekend at the Middlebury College Museum of Art. In the first in a series of “gallery talks,” museum director Richard Saunders focus es on lesser-known works of local interest — like a painting of Whiteface Mountain by Sanford Gifford — that trace the transformation of the colonies into nationhood. Saunders suggests, rightly, “I bet you’ve never seen a painting of Port Henry, New York.”

‘cripple’ effect When incomes to producing great plays in rapid succession, Martin McDonagh may end up giving Shakespeare a run lor his money. Three years ago, the 31-year-old English dramaturge had two plays on Broadway — one of which, The Beauty Queen of Leenane, took home lour Tonys. The other, The Cripple of Inishmaan, is also set in rural Ireland, but has more laughs — albeit tragicomic ones. Veteran Vermont actors portray the inhabitants of an isolated island community anticipat ing the arrival of an American film crew in a staged story that sounds like Local Hero meets Waking Ned Devine.

SEVEN DAYS

logy

Se p tem b er 1 3 - 1 9 ARIES

(Mar. 21-Apr. 19): Thank Goddess, Aries, that 1 rarely have to nag you to be brave. Forceful enterprise comes naturally to you. But this week I’ll ask you to take inventory o f this beautiful capacity. Please check and see if you ever act boldly on behalf o f an urge that would be better suppressed, or at least questioned. Make sure the motiva tions that underlie your initiatives are ethically impeccable. Given the fact that your will power burns so clean and strong, my dear, it’s crucial that you safeguard the integrity o f its actions.

TAURUS

(Apr. 20-M ay 20): “A writer who doesn’t have a wound that’s always open is no writer,” mused author Elias Canetti. “He may prefer to hide it if he doesn’t want pity; but he must have one.” To pro vide you with the most useful horo scope possible, Taurus, I’ll expand upon that thought: “A lover who doesn’t have a wound that’s always open is no lover.” N ow please don’t interpret this masochistically; I’m not implying you should let anyone hurt you, not even a gorgeous soul you adore. N o, what I mean is that by making yourself available for the rig ors o f love, you recognize that at any moment you may have to engage your own darkness and ignorance, or else deal in good faith with the dark ness and ignorance o f someone you love.

GEMINI

(May 21-June 20): It’ll be bad luck to be superstitious in the com ing week. Please don’t even think about rubbing a rabbit’s foot with your left thumb while looking over your shoulder at yourself in the mirror and chanting “I’m foxy, not grumpy” as many times as you can during one long exhale. Or else, if you absolutely can’t stop yourself from indulging in your pet mumbojumbo, at least be aware that it won’t help you zero in on your new sweet spot. You’ll be able to do that just fine without any appeal to false gods.

«*

CANCER

(June 21-July 22): Here at the Dionysian Center for the Rehabilitation o f the Ecstatically Challenged, where I am the Chief Imagination Officer, we bridge the gap between divine truth and funky common sense. For instance, we teach that you Cancerians should never underestimate how much your spiritual progress depends on you get ting good food, dream-rich sleep, nurturing music and loving sex. And since your soul seems a bit jangled lately, we recommend that you now treat yourself to large helpings o f these necessary delicacies. (PS. Don’t worry about gaining weight. Acquir ing a slightly bigger rear end as an anchor may help prevent you from being so easily swept away by your changing moods.)

LEO

(July 23-Aug. 22): I predict that in the coming week you will not have a hair-raising adventure involv ing an underground cave and an immortality elixir. Nor will you sign up to fight as a mercenary in a for eign war or be arrested for smuggling black market orchids or win a huge bet with an ex-Mafia hit man turned N ew Age guru. N o, Leo, I’m afraid that you most likely will not embark on anything so exciting as a life changing quest. On the other hand, there is a good chance you’ll enjoy the simple pleasures with intense glee. People you usually take for granted will awaken your interest, and experi ences that have become too familiar will surprise and delight you.

VIRGO

(Aug. 23-Sept. 22): If you want astrological advice on how to be a more eager wage slave or politely efficient social unit, you should read a different horoscope col umn. Mine is concerned with subtler matters, like how to open doors for

yourself by opening doors for other people. Having said that, I’d be remiss in my astrological duty if I didn’t inform you that you now have greater skill than usual in the art o f crude materialism. You can probably make a crafty killing in the market place. Or steal some lucrative thunder without breaking any laws or hearts. Or attract financial blessings through the power o f your generosity. Or all three.

LIBRA

(Sept. 23-Oct. 22): In

The Golden Bough, an historical cata logue o f magical and religious prac tices, James Frazer notes that on occa sion people have grown sick and tired o f their god’s failure to deliver the desired goods. They may even try to motivate a deity by shaming or abus ing him. If the Rain-Bringer has been derelict in his duty, for instance, his statue may be cast out under the hot sun until he shapes up. Given the recent events in your life, Libra, I think you know exactly what I’m talking about. So may I suggest that you hike the pressure on the divini ties that have been holding out on you? Start by speaking your prayers more loudly and forcefully. If that doesn’t work, hurl a few insults or throw rocks in the direction o f heav en. If that doesn’t work, fire the old gods and hire some new ones.

SCORPIO

(Oct. 23-Nov. 21): French filmmaker Jean-Luc Godard once noted that “A story should have a beginning, a middle and an end... but not necessarily in that order.” Let this thought be your guide in the coming weeks, Scorpio. It will allow you to shed your expec tations about how the drama is “sup posed” to unfold. It will prevent you from getting frustrated and will steer you in the direction o f more appro priate responses, like amusement and

fascination. And it just may inspire you to be so spontaneous that you’ll welcome the climax with an open heart, even if it arrives out o f nowhere during an apparent lull in the plot.

SAGITTARIUS

(Nov. 22-Dec. 21): You’re primed for far more thrills, chills and frills than ■ almost everyone around you. W hile you perfect your role as a fun hog, anxiety vultures may be lurking everywhere. But I predict that as long as you make yourself staunchly immune to their contagious blahs, your quest for crafty rapture won’t be denied. And the cosmic signs are clearly suggesting that you do owe it to yourself to exceed the boundaries o f civilized repression, not to mention test the boring limits o f good taste. Have you considered throwing a Sagittarians-only bash?

CAPRICORN

(Dec. 22Jan. 19): For singer-songwriter Paula Cole, the creative process has a primal urgency. “It’s like when a snake molts,” she muses. “My albums are like the molted skins that I’ve left behind.” I trust her description res onates with you, Capricorn. Accord ing to my reading o f the astrological omens, you should be right in the middle o f shedding an identity or cre ation you spent months refining. I suggest you do it with impeccable enthusiasm and thoroughness. That’ll be the best way to attract the inspira tion you’ll need for your next master piece.

AQUARIUS

(Jan. 2,0-Feb. 18): In my perfect world, an essential part o f every child’s education would be remembering and learning from dreams. Dream interpretation work shops would be as popular among adults as watching TV. W hy do I feel

Iso strongly about this? Because |understanding dreams is the est defense against our instinct i to project our own flaws onto other people. W hen you study your dreams, you have a foolproof way to detect the way you lie to your self. You can discern the hidden pat terns that shape your behavior and that are sometimes at odds with your conscious values. I’m doing a hard sell, Aquarius, because it’s prime time to upgrade your relationship with dreams. For inspiration, try these books: Living Your Dreams, by Gayle . Delaney, and Creative Dreaming, by Patricia Garfield.

PISCES

(Feb. 19-Mar. 20): This is a subliminal message. Though your conscious mind won’t be aware o f what I’m saying, your subconscious will record and remember everything. It’s a good thing, too, because if your ego got a hold o f the tricky privilege I’m about to authorize, it might be tempted to abuse it. Here goes: You have cosmic permission to tweak rules and traditions that keep you apart from the experiences your soul loves. That means you may tiptoe along the thin line between creative storytelling and outright fabrication. It also gives you the right to act as if the truth is more important than the facts; as if imagination is more trust worthy than knowledge. You can call Rob Brexsny, day or night for your

Dear Lola, My boyfriend, "Lionel, ” and I have been living together for a little ever a year. Before he started seeing me, Lionel was involved in a very long-term relationship with "Mimi, ’’ who suffers from various psychologi cal disorders. Lionel and Mimi broke up about six months before I came on the scene, and for a long time we never heard from her. Recently, however, Mimi’s come back into his life. She calls Lionel at all hours, drops in uninvited, and has had several gen uine crises that have required his attention. I admire Lionel’s compas sion, but all the time he spends on her leaves little left for me. How can I reclaim my boyfriend without acting like a witch? Helpless in Huntington Dear Helpless, Mimi is using her helplessness as an excuse to re insert herself into Lionel’s life. His compas sion is commendable. But he needs to set clear lim its on his role in her life. All three of you will be helped if you can help Lionel help Mimi get the professional help she clearly needs.
