In the 1970s, Europe and America were shaken by the new musical genre of punk. The fury of the young generation was expressed through this uncompromising and extremely provocative musical fashion, and somehow shyly, some time before the death of Josip Broz Tito, punk rock reached the Yugoslav youth through some open door of the Communist Party. See how it all started in Belgrade in the movie - I was a punk before you. Zoran Kostic Cane, Cirilo, Slobodan Nesovic Loka, Srdjan Dragojevic, Srdjan Gojkovic Gile, Branko Rosic, Djole Rahaja, Beska, Nebojsa Pajkic and many other Belgrade punks of that time talk about the first days of punk in Yugoslavia.

Tamara Rojo, dancer and artistic director of English National Ballet, explores Giselle - the first great Romantic ballet, and a defining role for any ballerina. Through two radically contrasting 2016 productions - a traditional 19th-century recreation, and a gritty reimagining of the work by celebrated Anglo-Bangladeshi choreographer Akram Khan - Rojo examines the cultural and social background to the ballet’s genesis in 1840s Paris, and the spiritual themes that have fuelled its success over the last 175 years. Giselle is the story of a young peasant girl who personifies all that is good in life, and ultimately forgives the aristocrat who has seduced and betrayed her. With Giselle, the look and emotional heart of ballet was transformed forever, from mime-based storytelling to a fusion of emotion, music and movement, formulating a tradition that has inspired audiences, dancers and choreographers ever since.

Il tabarro is a tale of jealousy and murder between Michele, his young wife Giorgetta and her lover Luigi, set aboard a barge on the Seine. Suor Angelica tells the story of the nun Angelica’s familial loss, sacrifice and suicide. Gianni Schicchi is an opera full of trickery, greed and romance as a family dispute breaks out over a missing will. The Olivier-nominated Royal Opera production featuring a trio of one-act Puccini operas was first performed together on the same bill at Covent Garden in September 2011, and was acclaimed by the Telegraph as "an operatic treat... three hours of gorgeous music that allows big voices to let emotion rip" and by the Evening Standard as "a triumphant vindication of the social awareness and dramatic power of Puccini's triptych". The trio of operas offers a panorama of emotions, with the dark and foreboding Il tabarro and comic Gianni Schicchi bookending a heart-wrenching Suor Angelica.

Supplemental DVD/Blu-ray for The Debut! by Riyoko Takagi
Accompany Seu Madruga's inner trip of resolve as he finds peace in his last breath.
Vivo en Buenos Aires es un DVD (obviamos el comentario del CD, que contiene siete temas menos, por razones obvias) de interesantísima factura artística y que muestra cabalmente lo que ofrece Kevin Johansen en cada una de sus actuaciones, manteniendo el mismo espíritu incluso de aquellas series de actuaciones en lugares intimistas como Notorious hace ya casi una década. Una suerte de grandes éxitos en vivo que no admite demasiados reparos, más allá de las preferencias personales de cada uno (me anoto, total es gratis, con La procesión, Me fui pa'l Monte, No me abandones, Ni idea). Kevin Johansen tiene, en The Nada, a un combo numeroso que no solamente patea hacia el mismo arco sino que, conscientes de sus bondades y limitaciones, se la pasan entre ellos; y encontró en Liniers a un aliado no forzado que ha sabido comprender (y reflejar) con certeza para qué lado queda el arco contrario. Y todos disfrutan. Arriba y debajo del escenario.
After a thirty-year-plus hiatus, Todd Rundgren's Utopia graced the Chicago Theater stage, with the hopes of promising fans an extraordinary, other-worldly concert experience. In the 1990s Todd retired Utopia and reverted to making his own music, with varying degrees of success, and then last year came the announcement of the long-awaited U.S. reunion tour, where the album in review here originates. Recorded in Chicago on 22nd May 2018, the music reflects a run through many of the finer moments of the Utopia back catalogue. Todd is joined by fellow original members Willie Wilcox (drums) and Kasim Sultan (bass), alongside replacement keyboard player Gil Assayas who covered at short notice for an indisposed Ralph Shuckett. The original 70's-formed band established a stellar reputation for stretching the prog rock/pop.

Hey Beautiful Jerk had the great pleasure in the creation of Mastodon’s “Crack the Skye” 10th Anniversary Tour Film. Working closely with drummer Brann Dailor, HBJ re-imagined the narrative from the legendary concept album as an animated film that takes viewers on a journey across the cosmos with a telepathic, paraplegic boy as he astral projects across time, space and the spirit world. Working from the original concept album artwork by Paul Romano, HBJ and its team of illustrators and animators developed an animated sci-fi film that features fantastic worlds for every song of the album. Illustrator Skinner collaborated once again with HBJ providing a series of mind altering concept designs of Rasputin, Satan and a slew of creatures and demons that populated the “Crack the Skye” film.

A Valentine's Day television special starring Charice.
Even though today he remains a great stranger, Jani Christou (1926-1970) stands among the greatest figures of the 20th century music avant-garde. His work is characterized by a rare uniformity and consistency, regarding not only the pioneering means which he introduced in the world of sounds and the innovatory music systems, but also his own philosophical universe which runs through and inspires his compositions: the myth, the transcendent, the mysticism, the primordial, the ritual, the unapproachable, the panic, the hysteria... With Christou's early death in a tragic accident, on his birthday, in January 8th 1970, the world of contemporary music lost one of the most thrilling and provocative talents. The documentary attempts to illustrate the personality and the spirit of this great thinker of art and follow the path of his short life, which has always been interwoven with art and his meaning of offering to humanity and civilization.
