    Baritone has background in 'Budd'
    Baritone Richard Stilwell sings the minor role of Mr. Redburn in the Santa Fe Opera production of “Billy Budd.”   (Sunday, July 06, 2008)

    Director to lead Opera Southwest production
    Opera Southwest has announced its repertoire and casts for the 36th season, 2008-2009. Artistic director David Bartholomew, in his third year with OSW, will direct “Die Fledermaus” by Johann Strauss Jr. as the opening production Oct. 4-5, and Oct. 10 and 12, followed by the company's first performances of Gaetano Donizetti's dramatic “Lucia di Lammermoor” on March 28 and 31, and April 3 and 5.   (Sunday, July 06, 2008)

    'Cyclone' keeping local theater scene on the cutting edge
    More avant-garde international theater productions like “Eye of the Cyclone” will be making stops in Albuquerque, Tricklock Theatre Company co-artistic director Joe Peracchio said.   (Sunday, July 06, 2008)

    Navajo potter lives a life of quiet beauty
    Rose Williams, the 93-year-old matriarch of Navajo pottery, recently in Santa Fe watched the 1959 comedy “Some Like it Hot,” featuring Marilyn Monroe, along with Tony Curtis and Jack Lemmon.   (Sunday, July 06, 2008)

    Good, evil on collision course in Santa Fe Opera's 'Billy Budd'
    SANTA FE — A triangle of lead characters are at the center of the somber story of Benjamin Britten's 1951 opera “Billy Budd.”   (Sunday, July 06, 2008)

    It's in with new for ballet troupe
    Two world premieres and an American premiere highlight next weekend's opening of the Aspen Santa Fe Ballet's summer series at the Lensic in Santa Fe.   (Sunday, July 06, 2008)

    Slaughter Tour trying to make metal magic
    With Ozzfest gone the way of a one-day festival, what metal music tours out there could ably carry the torch lit by Mr. Osbourne? Perhaps the Summer Slaughter Tour could be a contender, though some of the names on the bill might still be a little unfamiliar to metal fans.   (Thursday, July 03, 2008)

    Poison beats the odds to succeed, endure
    Poison is no flash in the pan. Two decades and 25 million records later, the band is recording, traveling the world to play sold-out venues in front of crowds of 17,000, and, well, living the glorified life of rock stars. That much hasn't changed — not since the Pennsylvania outfit sold everything and moved to Los Angeles in an old beat-up Chevette to stake its claim to fame.   (Thursday, July 03, 2008)

    'Junior' marches into Duke City
    There's “The Music Man” ... and then there's “The Music Man Junior.” “Junior” is an abbreviated version of the famous Broadway musical for young, unchanged voices.   (Thursday, July 03, 2008)

    Russell rides long track record
    It seems Leon Russell can be related to nearly every major musician of the 1960s and 1970s. He's worked with The Beatles, the Rolling Stones, J.J. Cale, Tom Petty, Willie Nelson, and so many more in his 50-year career.   (Thursday, July 03, 2008)
