4: Ken Burns, 7:00 p.m.
The Vermont Humanities Council again brings Ken Burns to town for their First Wednesdays series. When First Wednesdays come to Brattleboro, they are typically held at Brooks Memorial Library, but Ken's presentations are so popular, the main stage of the glorious Latchis Theatre is the place to be. VHC's First Wednesdays are always free of charge. Doors open at 6:30.
29: A Romantic Voyage, Windham Orchestra, 3:00 p.m.
A Romantic Voyage to warm up our January nights, the Windham Orchestra under the direction of Hugh Keelan performs Rachmaninoff and Elgar.
Treasured local mezzo-soprano Mary Westbrook-Geha sings Elgar’s Sea Pictures opus 37, an orchestral song-cycle in English that describes a human relationship with the sea, from tenderness and loss through calm safe-haven to tempestuous drama. Rachmaninoff’s Symphony No. 2 opus 27 shows us how to live in winter in Russia or Vermont: the scene appears to be set in darkness, cold and settled snow, a heavy, brooding state of mind prevails, and the main work of the symphony is to generate joy, passion and a glow of warmth against this backdrop. As with so much Rachmaninoff there are glorious rising lines of music that create an overwhelming uplift, only to subside and rise even higher and more powerfully. Brilliance and warmth prevail.
Tickets: $15, $10 students and seniors
