TICKETS + INFORMATION

A half-hour vocal/instrumental piece each from the two finalists in Beth Morrison Projects’ Next Generation project; the winner, to be announced at the end of Friday’s concert, will receive a commission for a full-length opera. I’ve only heard a little by the two composers — Elizabeth Gartman and Nilou Nour — and, in keeping with BMP’s program, their music seems fresh, listenable, surprising, and well put-together.

MAKE A NIGHT OF IT: How much am I loving the Southwestern pub grub at Santa Fe BK? Lots.
