LSO, Yuja Wang/Tilson Thomas
There was something oddly lopsided about last night’s LSO concert at the Barbican. It was as though conductor Michael Tilson Thomas had ordered the pieces on the programme according to popularity, starting from the least known: thus Ives' From the Steeples to the Mountains opened the evening, followed by The Unanswered Question, Prokofiev's well-loved Piano Concerto No. 3, and finally, Stravinsky's immensely popular Firebird (here in its original ballet-score guise, rather than as a Suite).Ives [Read more]

Holy
The echo caught us off guard. First it silenced us in the midst of our casual conversation, wondering what had happened, and then it motivated us to repeat what we said even louder in order to hear it again and again.It was our last few days in Ecuador and our team was delighted to have a day of sightseeing and shopping after a week of intense missionary work.This echo occurred as we crossed a large area to the little stores and shops. Unbeknownst to us, we had walked right in the middle of an [Read more]

Dazzling visuals can't disguise a lack of character in this 1930s
The story is set in the middle of the Depression. Banks are commonly believed to have betrayed their customers. Jobs and homes have become luxuries. During a “war on crime” launched to thwart the prolific bank robber John Dillinger (Johnny Depp), the government sanctions “vigorous interrogation” – otherwise known as torture. Telephone lines are tapped, with conversations put literally on the record: the stylus accumulates furry curlicues of vinyl as it bites into the rotating disc. When the FBI [Read more]

Big League Dreams: A Sunday in Turlock
There’s something poetic about 12 beer-guts a side at a wooden-bat league baseball game on a Sunday in Turlock.The men that play range greatly in age, some are 20, some are nearing 60. The game has passed them by, but life hasn’t, and that’s why they still play.They have duct-taped cleats and hole-ridden uniforms, but pristine leather and flawless, shimmering maple, custom-made and flown in at added cost from Louisville. They use wooden bats, because that’s what ball play [Read more]

2005 - Good Or Bad?
A Wisden essay once claimed, 'There is a case for saying that Headingley 1981 is one of the greatest disasters to have hit England's cricket. Certainly, it plunged into a pattern of self-destructiveness as the echoes of that extraordinary year died away. The England team became based around an Inner Ring, with Botham at its heart: Botham, self-justified by his prodigious defeats that unforgettable summer. To be accepted you had to hate the press, hate practice, enjoy a few beers and what have y [Read more]

Riga thrives on solar energy
No matter how many times I've been here, architectural discoveries still surprise me at every turn. Nowhere else have I seen so many building styles intermingling ? from the rooster-topped spires of the city's churches soaring over the black box of the Museum of the Occupation of Latvia, to Peter the Great's pink and precious palace sharing a street with geometric art deco houses. UNESCO also noticed this unique mixture, and declared Riga a World Heritage Site in 1997, for its architectural dive [Read more]

Letter to Obama from a Dying Friend
Upon reflection, however, I realized my story would be less compelling than others. For I come from a generous family. True, we were raised to make our way in the world and I started to work at age fourteen. Some forty years later, however, when it became evident that I could no longer hold down a job, my family cut back on their expenses so that my basic needs would be met. Hence I will not die, as thousands of my counterparts do, alone and anonymous in a hospital room or in the streets. [Read more]
