WGBH Interview with Rob Kapilow |
Rob Kapilow was interviewed on WGBH on Thursday December 1 to talk about his two upcoming Celebrity Series performances. Watch the discussion via the live Facebook event here and don't miss out on Rob's event this January!
What Makes It Great? Rob Kapilow and Kyle Athayde Dance Party with Special Guest Underground Friday, January 20, NEC's Jordan Hall at 8 PM.
From Glenn Miller's Chattanooga Choo-Choo to Wynton Marsalis' Big Train, the everyday, ordinary sounds of trains have inspired some of the greatest jazz compositions of the 20th century. Railroads were a constant in American culture and deeply connected to the world of working musicians criss-crossing the country. In this installment of What Makes it Great? Rob Kapilow, the Kyle Athayde Dance Party, and special guest Underground examine and perform iconic jazz classics inspired by trains and composed by Glenn Miller, Count Basie, Duke Ellington, Thelonious Monk, and Wynton Marsalis.

The Reviews Are In!
Sir Simon Rattle And the Berliner Philharmoniker,
"A musical experience of a lifetime!" |
On November 11, 2016, Sir Simon Rattle performed at Boston's Symphony Hall for the final time in his current role as Chief Conductor of the Berliner Philharmoniker. On the program were Boulez' Éclat (for fifteen diverse instruments, including glockenspiel and mandolin) and Mahler's Seventh Symphony. We were blown away, and the capacity crowd showed their appreciation with a prolonged ovation. Critic Lloyd Schwartz called it " A musical experience of a lifetime!"
