Jazz Takes On Joni
Mitchell |
David
Lahm and 18 all-star guests demonstrate that Joni
Mitchell’s work (on its own, apart from her rendering
of it) is jazz composition. It has a place in the
repertoire of that most vital and
uncompromising
genre of music, mainstream American jazz. With
Randy Brecker, Thomas Chapin & Lew
Tabackin.

Venice:
Queen of the Adriatic
Venice is a fairy tale
city, rising from the sea on 119 small islands,
separated
by the 160 canals that dominate Venetian life. Its
jeweled Basilica is a blend
of Byzantine splendor and Western imagination and the
Piazza San Marco has been proclaimed “the most
beautiful room in Europe.” It has been half a
millennium since Venice ruled the waves. Since then
its magnificent
churches and palaces, gondolas and canals, public
buildings and private villas, art museums and piazzas
have steadily declined into a gorgeous decay. This
installment of MUSEUM CITY SERIES showcases the
thousand years of the glorious history and
heartbreaking beauty that is Venice: Queen
of the Adriatic.
