Philippe Jaroussky |
What's on Boston's cultural plate this week? A lot, it turns out. Tonight I'm visiting the
ICA, both to see the "Dance/Draw" exhibit, and to hear legendary choreographer William Forsythe - arguably the most influential dance-maker in the world - discuss his career (that's at 6:30 pm, btw). Tomorrow I'll stop by
ArtsEmerson to catch the famous/notorious Mabou Mines interpretation of Ibsen,
DollHouse. Then Thursday I'll return to
Boston Ballet for
Romeo and Juliet, at the Opera House. Friday is even more dance - the Boston debut of Aszure Barton at
Celebrity Series. Then Saturday is crunch time - I've got Robert Lepage's
Siegfried from the Met in HD all afternoon (it's six hours long; I'm praying "The Machine" works this time, or I'll have to leave early), followed by Philippe Jaroussky, the greatest counter-tenor in the world (IMHO), at the
Boston Early Music Festival with
Apollo's Fire, Cleveland's red-hot period orchestra. Sunday is the long-awaited
Boston Lyric Opera production of Verdi's
Macbeth, which is rarely seen in these parts. And then . . . well, after a possible nervous collapse, I'll have a lot of reviewin' to do!
