  • Psaudio Copper
    Issue 133 MARCH 29TH, 2021 Copper has a new look! So does the rest of the PS Audio website, the result of countless hours of hard work. There's more functionality and easier access to articles, and additional developments will come. There will be some temporary glitches and some tweaks required – like high-end audio systems, magazines sometimes need tweaking too – but overall, we're excited to provide a better and more enjoyable reading experience. I now hand over the column to our esteemed Larry Schenbeck: Dear Copper Colleagues and Readers, Frank has graciously asked if I’d like to share a word or two about my intention to stop writing Too Much Tchaikovsky. So: thanks to everyone who read and enjoyed it – I wrote it for you. If you added comments occasionally, you made my day. I also wrote the column so I could keep learning, especially about emerging creatives and performers in classical music. Getting the chance to stumble upon something new and nourishing had sustained me in the academic world – it certainly wasn’t the money! – and I was grateful to continue that in Copper. So why stop? Because, as they say, there is a season. It has become considerably harder for me to stumble upon truly fresh sounds and then write freshly thereon. Here I am tempted to quote Douglas Adams or Satchel Paige, who both knew how to deliver an exit line. But I’ll just say (since Frank has promised to leave the light on), goodbye for now. The door is open, Larry, and we can’t thank you enough for your wonderful contributions.

After a few quiet weeks around the holidays, winter is always a remarkably busy time at the theater as we prepare for Mission Creek Festival (full disclosure: I am a co-founder but many people have their hands in making this event work). This year marks the tenth installment of Mission Creek Festival in Iowa City, and we at the Englert are proud to be the producer of the festival. The lineup often reminds me of the programmatic vision that drives my work at the theater: to present the known and unknown side-by-side, to find a balance between the traditional and the experimental, to be reminded of a familiar feeling and to be rewarded by a new experience. Indeed, part of my job is to bring old favorites like Joan Baez, hot new bands like Lake Street Dive, or an institution of comedy like The Second City.
