		<description><![CDATA[Gethsemane has been my favorite song from JCS since I can remember.  The lyrics are evocative and emotional and to hear Ted Neeley sing this live was a dream come true.  No one can feel its power or embody Jesus’ pain, doubt, or resolve more than Ted who has performed this some 2,000 times throughout his career.  It was a moment, and if you need but one reason to see Jesus Christ Superstar in Park City, this is it.  And it’s the reason that I’ll be going back to see it once more before it ends.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Sitting in Symphony Hall once again, I was reminded of the magic of this institution and of this Hall.  There with Keith Lockhart at the podium, the third Pops conductor in the past 80 years, I was surrounded by history and the love and beauty of music.  The Pops will be performing 37 concerts in less than three weeks, and when the day is over, it’s only about one thing…the music!]]></description>

One Flew South sang many songs from Last of the Good Guys, and they sang many more.  They sang tunes from the Beatles, and they even sang Mellencamp’s Jack &#038; Diane, which they dedicated to me since we never connected at FarmAid! ]]></description>

We remember those who have served our country, and we honor those who today spend each breath they take protecting our nation. In remembrance of those who fought in World War II, Rob Gardner and McKane Davis composed The Price of Freedom. Combining orchestra, song and archival video footage, The Price of Freedom shares the stories of 4 soldiers and their loved ones back home.  It is an amazing program.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[This season I was fortunate to be able to attend Utah Symphony performances in Salt Lake City and one of my favorites was Dvořák’s “New World” Symphony. I saw a number of guest conductors and artists present wonderful performances by Mozart, Dvořák, Rachmaninoff and Smetana, and I was particularly moved by Mahler's 2nd Symphony in the Salt Lake Tabernacle led by Keith Lockhart.  The 2009-10 season was remarkable, and the 2010-11 season promises even more!]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[On May 12th I had a great opportunity to attend a “contemporary” concert in Boston.  Existential Pilot was capping off its spring tour with a concert at First Church in Boston and I received an invitation to attend. Some people hear the word contemporary and they go running for Beethoven or Mozart. I’ve discovered that there are some types of sounds that are really in the ear of the composer, and then there are others that should be in the ears of the patrons. Existential Pilot belongs in the latter category.]]></description>

What a way to celebrate the Pops’ 125th Anniversary!  The season isn’t finished yet, and the big finale of the summer is always the Pops on the Esplanade for the 4th of July.  Fantastic performances!]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[If you didn’t get a chance to attend the Boston Pops this past week, you missed one heck of a concert! I seem to have a lot of musical firsts, and this Pops concert program was by far my favorite ever. Keith Lockhart and the Pops put together a program that included Hollywood’s and Boston’s elite, 9/11 Rescue workers and local artists, and the programs were so phenomenal that I had to attend twice!  ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[No single word can describe John Williams or the impact he has had on our lives for the past 40+ years.  The Boston Pops celebrates its 125th anniversary and pulls out the big guns, and who bigger can you celebrate with than John Williams?  And next week, Symphony Hall welcomes acclaimed actors Robert DeNiro, Ed Harris and Morgan Freeman to help present the Stars and Stripes program!]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[This weekend, the Utah Symphony presented Verdi’s Requiem.  I had no idea what it was, but I knew it involved the Utah Symphony, a large chorus, and 4 soloists – a soprano, a mezzo-soprano, a tenor, and a bass baritone.  Oh, and I presumed it would not be in English.  There is so much about Verdi’s Requiem that I absolutely loved.  The music, the singers, the orchestration – it was all amazing! ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The highlight of the evening was 17-year old violinist Will Hagen.  Any time an artist graces the stage at such a young age, there is surely something spectacular, and with his first performance with the symphony at age 9, he must have some great talent.  I was really looking forward to hearing how good this kid was! ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[As I arrived at Abravanel Hall and watched hundreds of children stream through the doors, I wondered why there aren’t more of these types of concerts. How exciting it was to see so many kids at the Symphony! For less than the cost of a night at the movies, I had the opportunity to hear a wonderful Mozart piece, I heard fabulous singers, I laughed a lot and had so much fun! Tara Faircloth’s adaptation was brilliant. What a great introduction to the opera for kids and adults alike.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Keith Lockhart  returned to Salt Lake City this month to conduct two weeks of performances with the Utah Symphony that include works by Walton, Smetana, Stravinsky and Rachmaninoff. Cellist Julie Albers performed Walton's Cello Concerto flawlessly, and Smetana's Má Vlast inspired me. The Utah Symphony musicians played their hearts out and it was a pleasure to see Maestro Lockhart lead the symphony through this amazing work.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I love the Boston Pops and I always look forward to seeing Maestro Keith Lockhart at the podium. The Pops Holiday concert was filled with songs for everyone, including a creative and smile inducing 12 Days of Christmas! The Boston Pops has a way of spreading good cheer, whether they are performing 35 concerts for the holidays or performing in front of a half a million revelers during the Independence Day celebrations. The Boston Pops is all about making people feel alive and happy, and when you celebrate with the Pops, there is never a shortage of smiles.]]></description>
