RIGOLLETTO Reviews Updated 4-2020
G. Verdi — RIGOLETTO If the rest of the season matches this production in artistic quality, it's going to be one hell of a good season for opera in Boston! "This is the 8th season of touring in the U.S. for this hardworking European company, and its opening in Boston with Verdi's popular RIGOLETTO was a propitious occasion, indeed. With smart and colorful sets and a moody use of lighting this production had all the feel of big theater. The sets filled the stage of the Cutler Majestic fully and added to a mood for this production that was at times both elegant and at others ominous. But sets and lighting were not all that shone last night. The magic of this production was an outstanding cast that could not only sing, but act as well. I must acknowledge at the start the wonderfully honed instrument of Russian soprano Larissa Yudina, whom we saw dazzling the audience in last year's "The Magic Flute." She thrilled us then with her Queen of the Night rendition of "Der Halle Rache Kocht in Meinem Herzen" (The wrath of hell is burning in my bosom), and she thrilled us again last night as the vulnerable and innocent Gilda. Ms. Yudina is gifted with amazing tonal clarity and vocal agility, and she put it all to good use in a performance that was wonderfully moving in all the right places. Equally up to the task was baritone Vytautas Juozapaitis who's tortured characterization of Rigoletto was near flawless, strong and acted with intelligence and emotional depth. -
Anne Cochran and Abe Lamarca Cain Park Bio 2017
Anne Cochran/Abe LaMarca Cain Park Bio 2017 Anne Cochran/Abe LaMarca Anne Cochran and Abe LaMarca’s Smooth Jazz Radio Hit, “Who’s Gonna Baby You?” is the culmination of many years of exciting their concert audiences with a warm, energetic and soulful live show. With a style that calls to mind Bonnie and Delaney meets Marvin Gaye and Tammy Terrell, this entertaining vocal pair has been consistently selling out shows since reuniting in 2012. It was at that time, Anne approached Abe with the idea to collaborate on a song called “Rise and Shine”; their first single to make Smooth Jazz and AC Radio stop and take notice. With the creative and artistic juices again flowing, along with the encouragement of his longtime friend, LaMarca produced his solo CD, “Stand and Deliver’’ as well as Anne’s 10th highly acclaimed CD, “Deeper”, which garnered another top 40 AC hit, “The Moment You Were Mine.” Since then, they’ve been playing to standing room only audiences that can’t seem to get enough. Anne Cochran has established herself as a beloved and respected live performer as well as a “First Call” and in demand, studio vocalist. Through her partnership with the chart - topping, romantic piano man, Jim Brickman, she has garnered national acclaim as his featured lead vocalist on tours from Carnegie Hall to Severance Hall. She has accompanied Jim on several successful records as well as being featured on four PBS Specials and has co-hosted his syndicated radio show. Together, Brickman and Cochran celebrate a top 5 Adult Contemporary hit single “After All These Years”. -

My Life and Stryper Revealed
HONESTLY My life and Stryper revealed. By Michael Sweet Founding member, singer, songwriter, and guitarist of the pioneering Christian rock band Stryper tells his life story…. Honestly. with Dave Rose and Doug Van Pelt © 2014 Big3 Records ONE I drink. Occasionally I smoke. If you ask my wife, my kids, my tech, my agent or my manager they'll all tell you that I curse more than I should. I've fooled around with women on tour buses. I’ve been arrested for indecent exposure. I've been reckless with money to the point of bankruptcy. My favorite bands are The Beatles, Van Halen and Judas Priest. I was pissed at God when my wife died of cancer and I despise religion. I am a Christian. I'm Michael Sweet. I’m a singer, guitarist, songwriter, producer and a founding member of the pioneering Christian rock band Stryper. We've sold almost 10 million records to date and were the first Christian band to air on MTV, and to have four #1 videos. We even had two top-10 videos at the same time, back when MTV actually played music videos. We've played soccer stadiums and biker bars, sometimes in the same week. Despite having done all of that, I'm still often known as the Bible-Tossing- Yellow & Black-Bumble-Bee guy. The Jesus guy. The 80's hair/glam Christian metal guy. An irrelevant joke. Or, even worse-- sometimes I'm not known at all. So who am I? I'm a guy that grew up in Southern California – sort of a surf punk kind of guy who absolutely loved music. -

Bibliography………………………………………………………………………………122 i Introduction In his “Literary Reveries” of 1834 Vissarion Belinsky proclaimed, “we have no literature” (Belinskii PSS I:22). Belinsky was in good company with his assessment. Such sentiments are rife in the critical essays and articles of the first third of the nineteenth century. A decade earlier, Aleksandr Bestuzhev had declared that, “we have a criticism but no literature” (Leighton, Romantic Criticism 67). Several years before that, Pyotr Vyazemsky voiced a similar opinion in his article on Pushkin’s Captive of the Caucasus : “A Russian language exists, but a literature, the worthy expression of a mighty and virile people, does not yet exist!” (Leighton, Romantic Criticism 48). These histrionic claims are evidence of Russian intellectuals’ growing apprehension that there was nothing Russian about the literature produced in Russia. There was a prevailing belief that -
