TICKETS + INFORMATION

Isaac the Blind was a Jewish mystic (a crucial Kabbalist), but Osvaldo Golijov put some Klezmer earthiness in his musical interpretation of him. Good idea for the splendid Harlem Chamber Players to get David Krakauer (who originated it) to handle the clarinet part.

MAKE A NIGHT OF IT: I am pleased to report that Symposium — the first Greek restaurant Your Compiler ever ate in, in some distant decade — remains in business some 50-something years later.
