If this isn’t a crazy culture week, we don’t know what is. From Pink Floyd to wolves and swindlers to string quartets. Sip some cocktails with Queen City Cabaret or learn about the universe with Neil deGrasse Tyson. Music Hall is always open and Cincinnati Ballet wraps up its season. Have a great one.
With apologies to T.S. Eliot (and to our local TV meteorologists), April is the coolest month. This week brings new cultural offerings from boogie-woogie piano to classic ballet, the daffodilian emergence of outdoor events, colossal Mahler at the CSO, a grand opening for ArtWorks, plus two landmark hippie-era rock musicals. How cool is that?
Bach’s B Minor Mass is surely a must-hear, this week, but that’s not to say there’s nothing else of import happening around us. Women’s History Month kicks off at the Harriet Beecher Stowe House. The Jewish Music Festival and Cincinnati Chamber Orchestra share music created in concentration camps. Imani Winds is not your father’s woodwind quintet. The arts are indeed about beauty, but the arts also teach.
Here comes the scorch. You knew it would arrive eventually, right? Whether you want to hide away or embrace the heat, choices aplenty, below. Maybe try a balanced approach – some inside, some out? Either way, we hope to see you somewhere out and about in the coming days.
BLINK is seemingly everywhere this week, for sure, but other distractions may also call to you. See what’s in store…
The fall arts season is right around the corner, but when you need a culture fix, you NEED a culture fix. Summer is winding down and it’s the perfect time to enjoy some hot August nights (and afternoons)….
The coming week is chock-full of visual art, song and even some art songs, plus a parade and festival overflowing with Pride. A week-long feast for all your senses.
The Cincinnati Symphony Orchestra has announced two large-scale initiatives named to honor the legacy of Andrew J. Brady, longtime Cincinnati music teacher and orchestra and band director at Western Hills High School from 1944-1976.
