More than 1,000 people came out that night as the Little Theatre Marquee reclaimed its place as one of Rochester’s iconic landmarks.

The Little opened in 1929 and its historic Marquee was added in the early DOWNSTAIRS 1930s. While the Marquee has stood as an impressive beacon on East Avenue for decades, it was starting to show its age. The old Marquee CABARET THEATRE was dismantled last September and was carefully restored to its original grandeur. But, there’s still a lot of work to be completed in the final plans of the Little Theatre restoration project. By the time this is finished, we will have invested several million dollars in preserving and enhancing this iconic Rochester landmark. All that planning, programming and success can only happen with your support. Thank you for your continued support of WXXI and The Little. We look forward to a summer full of even more excitement!

Their 2013 Syrah won the NY State Food and Wine Classic Governor’s Cup for the Best Wine produced in NY State. We sit down with Kim Aliperti, Owner and Operations Manager, to learn more about Billsboro. Q. What makes Finger Lakes wine unique compared to other regions? While winemaking styles can vary, most Finger Lakes wines are reflective of both the climate and the terroir of the region. The cooler climate moderated by the deep glacially carved lakes leads to wines with higher acids and lower alcohol levels, yielding crisper whites and food-friendly reds. Q. What trait characteristics define Billsboro wines? EVENTS Our white wines are crisp and fruity; they run from bone dry in varietals like Chardonnay and Sauvignon Blanc to semi-dry in our Riesling.

    MUSICWEB INTERNATIONAL Recordings of the Year 2019

    MUSICWEB INTERNATIONAL Recordings Of The Year 2019 This is the seventeenth year that MusicWeb International has asked its reviewing team to nominate their recordings of the year. Reviewers are not restricted to discs they had reviewed, but the choices must have been reviewed on MWI in the last 12 months (December 2018-November 2019). The 128 selections have come from 27 members of the team and 65 different labels, the choices reflecting as usual, the great diversity of music and sources; I say that every year, but still the spread of choices surprises and pleases me. Of the selections, one has received three nominations: An English Coronation on Signum Classics and ten have received two nominations: Gounod’s Faust on Bru Zane Matthias Goerne’s Schumann Lieder on Harmonia Mundi Prokofiev’s Romeo & Juliet choreographed by John Cranko on C Major Marx’s Herbstymphonie on CPO Weinberg symphonies on DG Shostakovich piano works on Hyperion Late Beethoven sonatas on Hyperion Korngold orchestral works on Chandos Coates orchestral works on Chandos Music connected to Leonardo da Vinci on Alpha Hyperion was this year’s leading label with nine nominations, just ahead of C Major with eight. MUSICWEB INTERNATIONAL RECORDING OF THE YEAR In this twelve month period, we published more than 2300 reviews. There is no easy or entirely satisfactory way of choosing one above all others as our Recording of the Year, but this year one recording in particular put itself forward as the obvious candidate. An English Coronation 1902-1953 Simon Russell Beale, Rowan Pierce, Matthew Martin, Gabrieli Consort; Gabrieli Roar; Gabrieli Players; Chetham’s Symphonic Brass Ensemble/Paul McCreesh rec.

  • Appendix B: a Literary Heritage I

    Appendix B: a Literary Heritage I

    Appendix B: A Literary Heritage I. Suggested Authors, Illustrators, and Works from the Ancient World to the Late Twentieth Century All American students should acquire knowledge of a range of literary works reflecting a common literary heritage that goes back thousands of years to the ancient world. In addition, all students should become familiar with some of the outstanding works in the rich body of literature that is their particular heritage in the English- speaking world, which includes the first literature in the world created just for children, whose authors viewed childhood as a special period in life. The suggestions below constitute a core list of those authors, illustrators, or works that comprise the literary and intellectual capital drawn on by those in this country or elsewhere who write in English, whether for novels, poems, nonfiction, newspapers, or public speeches. The next section of this document contains a second list of suggested contemporary authors and illustrators—including the many excellent writers and illustrators of children’s books of recent years—and highlights authors and works from around the world. In planning a curriculum, it is important to balance depth with breadth. As teachers in schools and districts work with this curriculum Framework to develop literature units, they will often combine literary and informational works from the two lists into thematic units. Exemplary curriculum is always evolving—we urge districts to take initiative to create programs meeting the needs of their students. The lists of suggested authors, illustrators, and works are organized by grade clusters: pre-K–2, 3–4, 5–8, and 9– 12.
