Concerts in crypts, with wine and food tastings preceding them, are fun by definition.  This one is given by ROCO (f/k/a River Oaks Chamber Ensemble), a Houston ensemble that has always sounded a little too conservative for my taste but which has generated amazing industry buzz in the "saving classical music with fresh presentations" category.  Led, as always, by the estimable oboist/arts entrepenuer Alecia Lawyer, this show will entirely feature works created for the ensemble.  And don't forget that wine and food tasting!

MAKE A NIGHT OF IT:  Harlem Public:  good drinks, slightly outlandish food.
