SUMMARY:Berkshire Opera Festival's Winterreise
DESCRIPTION:A rejected lover. A frozen landscape. A profound loneliness.  Hailed as the greatest song cycle ever written\, Schubert’s Winterreise follows a wandering protagonist on his quest for comfort on a winter’s night.  But this is not merely a trek through snow and ice—it is an intimate odyssey into the depths of the soul.  Join internationally acclaimed baritone Jarrett Porter and Artistic Director Brian Garman as they take you on this deeply moving and cathartic journey. \nFor information on discounted tickets\, contact Sarah Prouty at sprouty@berkshireoperafestival.org. \nThis program is funded in part by a grant from the Lenox Cultural Council\, a local agency which is supported by Mass Cultural Council\, a state agency. \nDiscounted tickets to BOF’s production of Winterreise are generously sponsored by Adrian & Christine Slywotzky.

SUMMARY:Better Than Ezra
DESCRIPTION:Songs\, albums\, live performances — some are simply timeless. From their early roots\, circa 1988\, playing house parties at Louisiana State University\, Better Than Ezra have made their mark on the music world in a major way. Yes\, the New Orleans quartet\, founded by Kevin Griffin (lead vocals\, guitar\, piano) and Tom Drummond (bass\, backing vocals)\, who unleash hummable melodies\, unshakable guitar riffs\, and confessional lyrics\, have stood the test of time — from 1995’s number one hit “Good” all the way to Taylor Swift’s famous 2010 cover of the Better Than Ezra classic “Breathless.” And they’re still going strong: in May 2024\, the band released their long-anticipated tenth studio album “Super Magick” via Round Hill Records. Named one of the “100 Greatest Alternative Artists of All Time” by “Billboard\,” with a legacy that includes inspiring a classic “Saturday Night Live” skit\, Better Than Ezra spent 2024 on the road touring their headline “Live a Little Tour” in the spring and continuing through the year\, recently wrapping their “Legends of the Fall: Tokyo Drift Tour.”
