The cultures clash and the sparks fly in the sixth season of DOC MARTIN, a catchy comedy mixing elements of classic British sitcoms with sharp medical drama and a quirky, lovable cast of characters. To kick off the new season, WXXI-TV will air the first three episodes back-to-back on March 6, followed by the next three episodes back-to-back on March 13th. As the new season gets under way, the town is buzzing with arrangements for the wedding of Martin and Louisa. Will they finally tie the knot, or will the villagers have to put the confetti back in the box again? The season concludes with the final two episodes airing on consecutive Thursdays, March 20 and 27 at 9pm. National Theatre’S FROM THE TOP WAR HORSE LIVE WITH HOST at THE LITTLE!

The Little celebrates its 85th anniversary this year as Rochester’s place for independent American cinema and foreign films. It is the longest continuously operating art film house in the nation. You can read an interesting history of the Little, and “the little cinema movement” of the 1920s on the Little’s website, thelittle.org. You can also check out what’s playing and buy tickets online – another improvement since our partnership! Throughout this process, WXXI is keeping in mind the need to preserve “the Little experience.” That’s why we have so many panel discussions and events at the Little – it’s part of the “shared experience” of enjoying a film with friends and hearing others react. Our partnership with local film festivals is key, so we will maintain the ability to show historic and archival films that haven’t been “digitized.” Music in the café, the way we showcase works of local artists, a venue for the Xerox Rochester International Jazz Festival, and other special events are all important to the future of the Little Theatre. Also, I want you to know that WXXI and the Little remain separate not-for-profit organizations. You can be assured that donations to WXXI stay with the station, donations to the Little (including membership) stay with the theater. If you haven’t done so lately, drop by for a movie and perhaps some music in the café. We’d love to see you – and hear your ideas about ways that WXXI and the Little can build on “the beginning of a beautiful friendship.” Best regards, Norm Silverstein, WXXI President [email protected] NEW YORK Q&A WITH A WXXI UNDERWRITER NTS EMMY NOMINATIONS DOUGLAS FIELDS Matthews & Fields Lumber Company has been underwriting ® WXXI has been nominated for a New York Emmy Award WXXI programming continuously for more than thirty years, for A Walk Through History in Mount Hope Cemetery. and has the distinction of being in business for more than a The documentary, which was nominated in the Historical/ century.

  • Christopher Rouse's Symphony No. 1
    CHRISTOPHER ROUSE’S SYMPHONY NO. 1 (1986): HEROISM IN A LYRIC CONTEXT Michael J. Morey Abstract Christopher Rouse’s Symphony No. 1 (1986) not only helped secure his position as one of America’s more prominent composers, but it also helped to elevate the Baltimore Symphony Orchestra’s reputation as a welcoming venue to performances of challenging new works. Cast in the form of a single-movement adagio, the Symphony was meant to pay homage to those Rouse admired as composers of adagios—Shostakovich, Sibelius, Hartmann, Pettersson, and Schuman. However, the music of only one composer is recognizably quoted: the famous opening theme from the second movement of Bruckner’s Symphony No. 7, which is performed in Rouse’s Symphony by a quartet of Wagner tubas. While Rouse’s Symphony is set in the lyric mode of the adagio, the cumulative quotation procedure provides a catalyst for the work’s narrative listening potential. The lyric context offers analytical advantages to adagios as stand-alone movements. By applying portions of Karol Berger’s lyric theory to Rouse’s Symphony No. 1, I highlight the intersection of specific categories often associated with adagio rhetoric—such as color and timbre, a sense of atemporality, and melodic expansion and contraction—with more traditional narrative-like properties—such as the carefully prepared climaxes, periodicity, and the return of various materials at critical formal junctures. I conclude by noting that while the adagio rhetoric is present throughout most of Rouse’s Symphony, the potency and referential content of the Bruckner quotation acts as the critical point of departure that counterbalances the lyric with narrative modes of perception.
