Review
"Marsalis makes his instrument talk, growl and moan. And he relates to an audience in such a relaxed manner as he talked about the composers he's worked with." ROB KENNEDY reviews the Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra performance.
"The final movement powered along and had the audience on their feet at the end with hooting and hollering and stamping of feet in appreciation. That does not happen often at a classical music concert," writes reviewer GRAHAM McDONALD.
"Zoe Brand participated in a gilding masterclass at Canberra Glassworks. In typical Brand style, she took to it as if she had been gilding forever, and produced the exhibition 'What Gave You That Idea'," writes reviewer MEREDITH HINCHLIFFE.
LEN POWER reviews “Old Friends”, a music and dance performance by Apeiron Baroque and Aimee Brown at Wesley Uniting Church.
"Then someone from the front row stood up and valiantly called out '7 to 6 on a penalty shoot-out! We won!' The packed Llewellyn Hall erupted in cheers and thunderous applause," writes TONY MAGEE, who was there to review the ACO.

"There’s tragedy in these lives; parents die, cancer strikes. Sexual relations can be fraught. Finding one’s identity is tricky. Growing into adulthood is hard.," writes reviewer ALANNA MACLEAN.
"Bookbinding is a form of craft that's not practised by many people these days. 'Reflections of a Philosophical Voyager' gives an interesting overview, with all binders working with the same text," writes reviewer MEREDITH HINCHLIFFE.
"The spectacle came not from lavish sets and costumes, but from the glorious voices of some of the best opera singers in the world." BILL STEPHENS reviews "La Gioconda in Concert".
Reviewer SAMARA PURNELL spent a night watching "two worlds colliding in the most beautiful way".
