This initiative is an ongoing program, which offers exciting performances and educational opportunities focusing on the work of William Shakespeare at Bay Street Theatre.

New York photographer Deborah Feingold will host a book signing at John Varvatos East Hampton on Saturday from 1 to 4 PM. Her photography book, Music, is an anthology of portraits featuring rare and early photos of Mick Jagger, Madonna, Brian Eno, Prince, Keith Richards, Chet Baker, James Brown, Joey Ramone, and Cyndi Lauper, and bands such as The Replacements, The Beastie Boys, R.E.M., and more.

The book, which features an introduction by Grammy Award-winning music critic Anthony DeCurtis, spans three decades of photography taken with an improvisatory approach influenced by jazz that lends her work an indelible personality, simplicity and eloquence. DeCurtis describes the collection as “a kind of secret collaboration, character studies that speak with warmth and gracefulness about both the artist and the art.”

Uncovering Maya Beiser, Cello Goddess

By Kitty Merrill

If only I could clone myself. What woman hasn’t thought that at some point in her life?

Maya Beiser did it, in a way.

Performing at a TED talk conference in 2011, she played an eight part modern etude, taking center stage to play one part, and projecting seven images of herself on a huge screen playing the other seven. The result was astonishingly beautiful and the YouTube video of the performance has, so far, garnered hundreds of thousands of views and was translated into 32 languages.

It’s no wonder The New Yorker dubbed her “The Cello Goddess.”

In mythological times goddesses represented all that was ripe and sensual, creative and unique; they taunted, teased, and pushed their human counterparts to previously unimagined levels.

So does Beiser.

Growing up in a kibbutz in Israel’s Galilee Mountains, it appeared she was on the path to classical music virtuosity.

She was already performing concerts by the age of 12. Then a friend introduced her to Janis Joplin – “my hero,” she said in an interview this week.

“It was an incredible revelation,” Beiser recalled, clearly still awestruck

by Joplin’s “fearless, raw energy . . .

She was really the first woman to take on rock and roll.”

As a child she practiced Bach every morning (and still does), but as she heard the eternal masterpieces, she also heard the intermingling of Moslem prayer and Jewish rituals in her town, tango music on her parents’ record player, and Janis. “It all became music to me, I didn’t hear the boundaries.”

And so, Beiser crafted a career in music unlike any other. “She throws down the gauntlet in every program,” New York magazine kvelled.

Her resume is packed with acclaimed performances on the world’s most prestigious stages, such as Lincoln Center and Carnegie Hall, where her concerts are consistently listed among the year’s best by Manhattan critics, a vast discography including a recording of "Time Loops" NPR placed among its top 10 of the year in 2012, and collaborations on such soundtracks as M. Night Shyamalan’s The Happening, Licensed

Insured

Landscape, Inc.

Lawn, Tree & Garden Care Think of us for your next project

Denzel Washington’s The Great Debaters, Edward Zwick’s Blood Diamond, and Rupert Sanders’ Snow White and the Huntsman.

Beiser’s multimedia concerts garner accolades from renowned critics by the score.

Speaking of Joplin and Jimi Hendrix, Beiser notes their commitment to unique expression. Initial rejection by the mainstream didn’t deter, they remained true to their individual genius and “let the world come around.”

“They’re the kind of artists I’m inspired by . . . You just gotta go all the way. Otherwise, what’s the point?”

A lifelong envelope-pusher, Beiser released Uncovered this week. Ten tracks of classic rock songs, all reimagined for the cello. She translates every instrument in each song to her cello, crafting an album that was two years in the making.

The process of making the tracks was an exacting experiment in creativity.

D e c o ns t r u c t i ng e a c h so ng , she explained, “I take each instrument and sound and explore it with my cello.” By track 10, the listener waits, wondering how this genius will replicate -- on the cello -- Robert Plant’s impassioned “trying to find, trying to find, where I’ve been” in the Led Zeppelin classic “Kashmir.” She does, and it’s simply delicious. Songs by Joplin (of course), AC/DC, Nirvana, Pink Floyd, Muddy Waters, King Crimson, and Howlin' Wolf round out a concept album Beiser describes as “a look into this music that’s both familiar and takes you on a journey.”

Music purists often disparage the use of technology as a way to make up for true talent. Don’t expect that with Beiser.

“I love the convergence, taking this ancient old instrument and using technology to expand it,” she said. It’s not about covering up flaws, “It’s the other way around, it’s exposing music from the inside out.”

“The way I see technology, it’s a great tool for my imagination.” It allows her to explore “crazy grand ideas,” she said, adding, “As long as you have the chops, the sky’s the limit.”

Speaking to the audience at the TED talk convention, Beiser explained that, thanks to technology, there’s no reason to limit the sounds from a single stringed instrument. She sets out “to build and create a whole universe from one LANDSCAPE DESIGN & MAINTENANCE RUBBISH & DEBRIS CLEAN-UP PLANTING & TRANSPLANTING PRUNING & TRIMMING NEW LAWN, FERTILIZATION ANNUALS & PERENIALS FLOWER POTS • DEER FENCES IRRIGATION SYSTEM REPAIR ANY JOB SIZE

instrument.”

Technology is the medium through which her music is channeled. On Uncovered, accompanied by nothing but a drummer on some tracks, Beiser interprets classics, and, as she said, “the music is transformed and so am I.”

And so is the listener.

Vacationing in East Hampton this week, Beiser opens her 2014 tour at Le Poisson Rouge in New York on September 4.

By Kitty Merrill Demetri Martin keeps a lighter in his back pocket all the time. “I’m not a smoker, I just really like certain songs.”

He believes saying “I apologize” is the same as saying “I’m sorry.”. . except at funerals.

This Sunday America’s foremost practitioner of nerd humor takes the stage at Westhampton Beach Performing Arts Center.

The embodiment of droll, Martin describes himself as “a myster y wrapped in an enigma wrapped in a pita. Why the pita? That counts as another mystery.” Known for deadpan one-liners and offbeat observations, Martin sidled onto the comedy scene with an appearance on Comedy Central’s standup showcase “Premium Blend” in 2001.

His “Important Things with Demetri Martin,” a stream of consciousness sketch comedy show, debuted on Comedy Central in 2009. It drew the most viewers of any other show on the cable network to date. Armed with his signature giant sketchpad, plus flashcards, Martin used music, standup and animation to interpret each week’s “important thing” to hilarious end.

This is a Book by Demetri Martin made the New York Times Bestseller list, and his writing has appeared in The New Yorker, Wired Magazine, and Playboy. His new book, Point Your Face at This, delighted critics at The Washington Post: “The book is filled with Martin’s famously clever doodles and diagrams that comment on big ideas, like love and death, and

smaller annoyances, like waiting in line.

Some are delightfully inane, others are hysterical, and a few will stay with you long after you — as Martin scribbles at the end of the book — “point your face somewhere else.”

Martin grew up in Toms River, New Jersey. He graduated Yale University in 1995 and was accepted into Harvard Law School. He chose a free ride to New York University School of Law. He told Harmon Leon in The Huffington Post: “I decided one day when I was sitting in class at law school that it was time to pursue comedy. The eureka moment was kind of long and protracted. It was more like a eureka semester.”

And audiences are the beneficiaries.

Horoscope

by Kate Plumb

August 27-Sept. 2 Read your rising sign if you know it; or any other sign, as each of us has Aries, Taurus etc. someplace in our charts governing some aspect of our lives.

ARIES (March 21-April 20) – The stickiness of the Mars Saturn conjunction can make you feel like you are driving a car with the brakes on. It is hard to get going and then hard to stop if you do get going.

The New Moon on Monday brought a clean-up crew into your house of work, health, and service. Turn over a new leaf in your work or health habits, especially in regards to codependencies. Expect obstacles to arise in the beginning of the week, if you have started a romance recently.

TAURUS (April 20-May 21) – Relationship excitement recently might give way to frustration this week, as roadblocks arise. The way forward will take persistence, be patient. Having just come off that beautiful Venus/Jupiter conjunction, though, there should be some residual abundant feelings of love and togetherness that will help you through. The New Moon two days ago begins a month of involvement with children, affairs of the heart, or creative endeavors; watch being over critical.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21) – Mercury is not as busy this week, thank goodness; but the winged messenger was involved with Chiron at the New Moon two days ago. The words you speak can wound or heal.

Watch projecting your own unresolved childhood issues onto another. You might not have a clear sense of where you are going this week or might have to say goodbye to someone, but it is for your own sense of wholeness. You are in a better position than it seems.

CANCER (June 21-July. 20) – As the week begins you may feel some pressure to spend more money on a child or romantic partner than you really want. There was a New Moon on Monday, which begins renewed energy for local affairs in your neighborhood or with your close relatives. You might be contemplating a trip, or a new course of study but the details are not jelling. Wait until after the weekend.

LEO (July 20-Aug. 21) – Warm, romantic, social or celebratory feelings can carry over as this week begins with the New Moon in your money, earned income, value and resources area of life.

Some attention and thought should be made in this area. Be careful of dubious claims in financial matters.

Investments might not be what they seem to be.

ARTS & ENTERTAINMENT

VIRGO (Aug. 21-Sept. 20) – A personal new beginning is in the cards for you this week. Rather than focusing on anyone else, you should be focusing on your interests and what you want out of life. You are not meant to understand your partners; they do not even understand themselves right now. Be careful with your words and notice the effect they have.

LIBRA (Sept. 21-Oct. 20) – Venus, your ruler, is bombarded by both Mars and Saturn this week, identifying a time when love comes at a cost.

If you are sure it is the real thing, then by all means go ahead; but they might just be too unpredictable for you. It is time for a retreat into your private world for some R&R and to think things through.

SCORPIO (Oct. 20-Nov. 21) – There is a debate going on inside you this week; either resentment about an increased work load, drudgery and/or responsibility or an increase in passion and focus firing up your ambition for the long haul fulfillment of your goals. Friends can help you steer your boat in the right direction. Empty nest syndrome anyone?

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 21-Dec. 21) – Are you longing for clarity? Maybe the way forward is to just expand your philosophy of life to include the reality of the “grey,” neither the black nor the white and the “imperfection” of the “perfection” of it all. Your career takes center stage this week, but doubts remain. Home life is also feeling a bit unsecure. Your strength is in delving into your unconscious motivation. Meditation and yoga will help.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 21-Jan. 20) – Mars and Venus, the planets of love and desire, ran into Saturn this week and maybe you had to end things with a friend. It is either the end or the beginning of a

IN THE NEWS

beautiful friendship. If it began in April 2013, then you are at a decision point. Saturn wants a commitment, but the details are fuzzy. Sometimes you just have to wait; plan a trip with like minded spiritual people for a conference in the mean time.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 20) – Hopefully the beautiful conjunction of Venus and Jupiter in the house of the public and your partners last week has brought you into the limelight. You might have to make a decision between a relationship/partner and your career this week; or maybe you are thinking of bringing someone into your company. Just be careful about financial arrangements until after the weekend.

Parental responsibilities over the weekend could weigh you down.

PISCES (Feb. 20-Mar. 21) – “Life can only be understood backwards; but it must be lived forwards.”

Soren Kierkegaard. Pisces, the sign of the two fishes each moving in opposite directions, understand and live this quote inherently.

The

Reel Deal

By Miles X. Logan

today’s birthday

by Miles X. Logan

Lyndon Baines Johnson, 1908

An asterisk (*) denotes an Indy Best Movie pick.

Coming Soon The Last Robin Hood (R ) Kevin Kline nails the role of Errol Flynn, who had a scandalous affair late in his life with a much younger woman (Dakota Fanning). Susan Sarandon plays the star-struck mother who enabled the ill-fated romance. Under more skillful hands this film might have amounted to something, but writers/directors Richard Glatzer and Wash Westmoreland took their heavy-handed script and beat it to death with a sledgehammer.

New To Theaters Starred Up (NR) Like unrelentingly grim prison movies? We’ve got one for ya. When a violent 19-year-old hothead (Jack O’Connell) goes to prison his finds his volatile, estranged father there (Ben Mendelsohn).

Needless to say, the kid doesn’t endear himself to his fellow prisoners and all kinds of hell breaks loose.

Luckily, a prison psychologist (Rupert Friend) explains to the kid why he’s so screwed up and they all live happily ever after in the big house.

New On DVD Frankie & Alice This depressing

(631) 648-7474

Independent / Samuel Goldwyn Films

tale of a dancer with multiple personalities died a quick and merciful death at the box office despite the star presence of Academy Award winner Halle Berry, who manages to be terrible playing each and every one of her.

Now Playing Sin City: A Dame To Kill (R) Frank Miller and Robert Rodriguez bring back the “Sin City” graphic novel to the screen and the visuals alone are worth the price of admission.

A sinfully luscious cast hams it up throughout and loves every minute of it. John Brolin, Jessica Alba, Rosario Dawson, Joseph GordonLevitt, Eva Green, and Mickey Rourke as the ugly guy.

Frank * (R ) Michael Fassbender as you’ve never seen him – literally.

Lenny Abrahamson’s offbeat film about a young musician who joins an avant garde band is funny, offbeat, and more than a bit terrifying. Domhnall Gleeson (Harry Potter) is excellent as the musician but Fassbender steals the show as the bandleader. Maggie Gyllenhaal, who plays a band member, might well garner Oscar consideration.

Fax (631) 648-7480

He was a congressman, a senator, a vice president, and a president – one of only four men to turn the trick. No one can say that Lyndon B. Johnson didn’t earn his place in the White House.

Johnson went to Washington from Texas in 1937 and served for 12 years in the House. He was elected to the Senate in 1949 and served a Senate Whip the last six of his tenure.

Johnson went into the Democratic primar y in 1960 as the frontrunner for the top spot only to be outmauervered by John F. Kennedy.

LBJ agreed to run on the ticket as vice president and ascended to the top spot when Kennedy was assassinated. He was reelected, handily beating Barry Goldwater.

Johnson was known as a passionate liberal, his “Great Society” legislation rich in Civil Rights reforms. The Vietnam War, still in its infancy when Johnson took the helm of the country, escalated greatly under Johnson’s watch and as American casualties mounted, Johnson’s popularity plummeted. There were riots on college campuses, riots in the inner cities, and by the end of his term Johnson helmed a country in danger of a full-fledged revolution. By then there were 550,000 American troops in Vietnam; there were about 16,000 when he took office.

Though Johnson is most remembered for the unfortunate war, his list of achievements place him in the upper echelon of effective US Presidents. His legislation guaranteed Medicare and Medicaid for generations to come. He championed the first expansive gun control act and his legislation made it a federal law to discriminate.

Under his watch the elderly and disabled in need were given federal aid for the first time. He championed education; his ESEA bill provided federal funds for elementary and high schools for the first time in history. A special focus was inner city reform, and Johnson funneled billions into the effort to rebuild city slums.

Johnson bowed out of the 1968 presidential race, though he likely would have earned his party’s nomination after Robert F. Kennedy, is main challenger, was assassinated. From that point on, his health deteriorated. He died of a heart attack, his second, in January, 1973, two weeks before Harry Truman and just days after his presidential term would have ended had he run and won in 1968. Doctors said Johnson had a bad heart and smoked most of his life.

By Jessica Mackin Everywhere I turned this summer there was another barre class compelling me to give it a try. A barre is the stationary handrail that is used during ballet warm up exercises. These workout studios have incorporated the techniques used to train ballet dancers into a workout that tones and sculpts the body and offers quick results. I’ve done the leg work (and ab work, and arm work, etc.) to bring you the best studios for barre in the Hamptons. Here are my recommendations along with the class descriptions. No dance experience required. Just grab a pair of no-slip grip socks and get ready to feel the burn.

Elements Fitness Studio, founded

by Andrea Fornarola Hunsberger, has brought the barre to the beach with its beautiful new studio location in East Hampton. Elements Barre Fitness fuses principles of ballet conditioning, yoga and Pilates. This 60-minute group fitness class is a revolutionary conditioning system that reshapes and reforms the body by coupling isometric exercises and interval training. The class is choreographed with a series of exercises linked together strategically to follow ballet barre conditioning and principles of muscle overload to

Exhale

Hit the barre for Exhale’s signature full body workout, Core Fusion Barre, designed to give you chiseled abs, toned legs, cut arms, and a high, lifted butt. This ballet-inspired, core-centric class focuses on isolated exercises, alignment, flexibility and posture as you work through targeted mindful muscle movements. Push yourself to the limit — and then find balance — as every hard worked muscle is followed by a deep, relaxing stretch.

2415 Main St, Bridgehampton www.ExhaleSpa.com

Physique 57

The Physique 57 workout blends a barre-based workout with intervals of cardio, strength training, stretching and recovery. Arms, thighs, seat and abs get sculpted in the form of long, lean, gorgeous muscles. The interval sets use your body’s own weight as resistance. Muscles are targeted and overloaded to the point of fatigue, then stretched for relief. Interval Overload, includes muscle-defining arm exercises, intense thigh and seat sequences, waistchiseling ab moves and fluid stretches.

It’s not easy, but that’s precisely why it works.

264 Butter Ln, Bridgehampton www.Physique57.com

Pure Barre

In just 55 minutes you will achieve a full-body workout concentrating on the areas women struggle with the most: hips, thighs, seat, abdominals and arms. The Pure Barre technique is low-impact, protecting your joints by avoiding any bouncing or jumping.

Each strength section of the workout is followed by a stretching section in order to create long, lean muscles without bulk. The technique works to defy gravity by tapering everything in and lifting it up. The concentration involved while taking Pure Barre allows you to block “life” out for the hour, creating the mental benefits similarly obtained by the practice of yoga or meditation.

A transformed body and a clear head in just one hour—it doesn’t get much better.

Relations. “With more than 2.8 million residents and 1000 restaurants with varied cuisines, concepts and price points, it is no wonder why we started the highly anticipated Long Island Restaurant Week which continues to flourish.”

Long Island Restaurant Week was designed to garner positive publicity and additional business during a traditionally sluggish period. Due to popular customer and restaurateur demand, the spring edition of this popular island-wide autumn promotion was launched in 2011 with an 168 participant roster.

Long Island Restaurant Week also believes in the importance of helping neighbors facing hunger and will make a donation following the campaign to select Long Island based charities.
