Stage critic James MacKillop previews the upcoming A Little Night Music, as Syracuse Opera sends in the clowns

starting point A couple of months ago, I wrote about a bad case of precipitation envy. As six feet of snow fell near Buffalo, I longed for a little of that spectacle. In Pompey, we had a dusting. I cleared the driveway with a hairdryer. And while I know a monster storm can be tragic, I crave the thrill of the ordeal. Lord knows we get snow. It just comes two or three inches at a time, day after day after week after month. No drama. No stories of neighbors banding together to shovel the driveway of the pregnant woman on the street. No star defensive end Mario Williams using his own personal front-end loader to clear the driveway of Hall of Fame quarterback Jim Kelly. (Apparently, when you have a $100 million NFL contract, and particularly if you’re coming off an ugly split with your fiancée and a bitter controversy over who gets the engagement ring, you go out and buy yourself something the next girlfriend won’t want to keep: a front-end loader. Who knew?) For heaven’s sake, how many years did Doug Marrone coach at SU without helping free a nurse’s car from a snow bank? He barely made it a season and a half in Buffalo. Photography by Then on Sunday, as if the Michael Davis, weather gods were taunting me, one design by Caitlin of my daughters returned to college O’Donnell. in New York City and immediately rushed to Trader Joe’s to stock up for the biggest, baddest snowstorm to hit anywhere, anytime. It would be Big News because … well, it’s New York City. And we’d get story What’s buzzing after heroic story about otherwise the most. cold and distant New Yorkers becoming almost Midwestern as they coped. But New York missed the drama, too. They learned what we know well in Syracuse: Sometimes the Follow us forecast is worse than the @syracusenew times.com reality. So the Big News blew up the coast, to New England.

Curses, Foiled Again

Fugitive Jacob Moore, 25, tried to divert police attention from his home, where officers were preparing to execute a warrant, by calling in a bomb threat to an elementary school in Hayden, Idaho. Moore forgot to turn off his caller ID, however, allowing authorities to trace the call to his phone and confirm that he was at home. They arrested him and added making a false bomb threat to the original felony charge against him. (Spokane-Couer d’Alene’s KXLY-TV)

Vines are proliferating, thanks to rising levels of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere that allow them to hog more light and water than the slower-growing trees they twine around, according to Australian biologist William Laurance. Noting that up to half of all plant species in a typical rainforest are vines, he warned that vines are advancing not only in rainforests fragmented by agriculture and logging, but even in undisturbed forests.

Sheriff’s deputies who placed burglary suspects Daniel Gargiulo, 39, and Michael Rochefort, 38, in the back seat of a patrol car in West Boynton, Fla., confirmed their guilt when a camera pointed at them in plain view recorded their conversation about the stolen goods and concocting an alibi.

Slightest Provocation

Cornelius Jefferson, 33, moved from Georgia to Kentucky to be with a woman he met online but wound up assaulting her, the Laurel County Sheriff’s Office reported, because he “didn’t think she was like she was on the Internet.” Deputy Gilbert Acciardo Jr. didn’t say how the woman failed to match her online persona, only that Jefferson choked her, threw food on her and then left with his suitcases.

Clarification of the Week

After Gail McGovern, CEO of the American Red Cross, repeatedly declared that 91 cents of every $1 donated goes toward disaster relief efforts, the organization abruptly removed the claim from its website. “The language used has not been as clear as it could have been,” the Red Cross announced, “and we are clarifying the language.” The subsequent official clarification was that 91 cents of every $1 the Red Cross spends goes for disaster relief. (NPR)

Failure to Communicate

A witness in the London trial of African preacher Gilbert Deya testified for more than an hour before anyone realized the Sierra Leone native wasn’t speaking English. During the 38-year-old woman’s testimony, lawyers blamed the courtroom’s poor acoustics for their inability to understand her, and repeatedly told her to speak more slowly and stand back from the microphone. Finally, court clerk Christiana Kyemenu-Caiquo, also from Sierra Leone, informed Judge Nicholas Madge that the witness was speaking a native Creole dialect. Kyemenu-Caiquo was sworn in to translate the testimony, which consisted of “I can’t remember” to every question. (London Evening Standard)

Gas prices drop to near $2 per gallon, Gov. Andrew Cuomo promises not to raise Thruway tolls, while the subway fare TAKe in New York City goes up to $2.75. What’s wrong with this picture?

QUICK

By Ed Griffin-Nolan

LAWMAKERS IN ALBANY NEED DAVID’S LAW A lawyer friend of mine says that whenever a law is named for someone, you can pretty much figure that it’s a bad law. I generally agree with my friend the attorney, but after the indictment of Assembly Speaker Sheldon Silver, I’m willing to make an exception this time and offer the following suggestion: The New York State Legislature, or at least the unindicted remnant of its members, should pass David’s law, named in honor of Oneida’s own Sen. David Valesky, a six-term Democrat who belongs to the Independent Democratic Conference, a tiny band of legislators who have hopes of being the swing votes in the state Senate and pushing a reform agenda. Valesky is unashamed to admit in public, and to verify in writing on his financial disclosure forms, that he moonlights as the accompanist playing the organ at the Catholic church where he grew up and where his family attends Mass most Sundays. The disclosure forms say he is paid less than $5,000 for this service, but the senator himself once told me the exact amount is $500. (This may or may not be an exclusive.) In the wake of the allegations that Silver collected millions of dollars in bribes disguised as legal work, it seems evident to me that the time has come to finally force our legislators to do the job we hired them to do and to knock off this moonlighting. Legislating and serving one’s constituents is a full-time job, and it should be treated as such. Gov. Andrew Cuomo, in his State of the State speech one day before the Silver bombshell, seemed to acknowledge as much. The governor suggested a pay cut for any legislator who moonlights. In this space, you have been hearing for years a simpler and more radical proposal: In exchange for the privilege of representing us (and the ample salary

and perks we bestow upon them), our state legislators should be mandated to forego outside income. Except that would deprive the good people of St. Patrick’s parish in Oneida of the valued services of Mr. Valesky. Not wishing to force a sanctuary filled with worshippers to sing a cappella, let us adopt the following compromise: No one in the Assembly or Senate is allowed to earn more outside income than Dave Valesky. If the parish gives him a raise, the whole Albany bunch can up their take by just as much. In the meantime, let’s remind them: They work for us, and not the other way around. SNT

When all the dust settles, I think we will learn that it was Sheldon Silver who took the air out of Tom Brady’s footballs in the AFC Championship game a week ago Sunday. If that turns out to be the case, you can be sure that the Pats paid Shelly a pretty penny. And for once, Silver would have done something in return for his bag of booty.

President Barack Obama, who skipped the Paris march of world leaders in support of freedom of expression after the Charlie Hebdo massacre by Islamic extremists, cut short his stay in India to pay his respects to the deceased king of Saudi Arabia, where blogger Raif Badawi has been publicly caned for publishing views challenging the Islamic extremists who run his country. Obama’s obsequiousness to the Saudi kingdom (which, lest we forget, was home to 15 of the 19 men who attacked us on Sept. 11, 2011) is consistent with long-standing U.S. policy of ignoring the kingdom’s discrimination against women, lack of due process and its theocratic worldview while peddling armaments to the Saudis to the tune of nearly $86 billion over the past five years. That’s billion, with a “B.”

“Gangster” Oilmen

“Abdullah presided over one of the world’s most wicked nonpariah states, whose domestic policies are almost cartoonishly repressive and whose international influence has been strikingly malign. His dynasty is founded on gangsterish control over a precious natural resource, sustained by an unholy alliance with a most cruel interpretation of Islam and protected by the United States and its allies out of fear of worse alternatives if it fell.” — Ross Douthat, columnist, New York Times

QUICK TAKe

Not So Teenage Dream: The Super Bowl halftime act, William “The Refrigerator” Perry, has learned how to sing and lost weight since his playing days.

By Jeff Kramer

HERE’S WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT THE SUPER BOWL

evis Island — The lonely spot on the field occupied by New England cornerback Darrelle Revis, who is rarely challenged. Look for him to spend the game reading travel magazines and playing Hi Ho! Cherry-O with his Seattle counterpart Richard Sherman.

Need to get up to speed on the Super Bowl? Here’s your A-to-Z guide from a conflicted fan of both teams:

ds — Budweiser’s popular “Lost Puppy” will return. This time, the puppy is accidentally kicked through a goal post by one of the Budweiser Clydesdales. An NFL concussion protocol expert brings the puppy a helmet, but it’s too late: The puppy is dead.

east Mode — The NFL keeps fining Seattle’s enigmatic running back Marshawn “Beast Mode” Lynch for refusing to talk to the press and for grabbing his crotch. His many fans counter that he’s actually a nice person and his rabies vaccination is current.

oaches — It’s fun-loving Pete Carroll vs. controlling Bill Belichick, aka “Belicheat.” But only one of these coaches abandoned a fabled college program when it was staggered by NCAA violations.

eflategate — The Patriots were caught using slightly under-inflated balls in the first half of the AFC Championship game against the Indianapolis Colts. The Patriots played significantly better once the balls were inflated properly. In America, we call this “news.”

’H I J

awks — Speaking of raptors, the Seahawks’ live hawk mascot, Taima, took a detour and landed on a fan’s head this season. Things happen. SIS — What New England quarterback Tom Brady said “Deflategate” isn’t.

ones — Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson said God set up the miracle win that put Seattle back in the Super Bowl. The Big Guy figures to be a factor again. Pats fans can only hope that God’s surgically repaired left knee and advancing age (approximately 10 billion) will leave Him vulnerable to former Syracuse star and defensive end Chandler Jones’s spin move.

delman — You can’t hate the Patriots (as much) if you watch wide receiver Julian Edelman’s Internet parody video, “Growing Pats,” set to the Growing Pains theme. Click it, and let the love shine in.

ourteen — Approximate number of times my car’s low tire pressure light has come on after the car has been sitting in a cold garage all night. I’m just sayin’.

ronk — See Gronk catch. See Gronk score. See Gronk party. The Patriots’ irrepressible half man/half velociraptor (and tight end) doesn’t understand that the NFL is serious business. Thank God.

ickers — Both teams have excellent kickers with names that are hard to spell. Google them if you care.

L M

egion of Boom — How humble would you be if you were the best in the world at your job? Seattle’s trash-talking defensive backfield offers a clue: Not very. anhattan Clam Chowder — To the credit of both cities, this grotesque abomination of real clam chowder is rarely seen in Boston or Seattle.

ausage — A Seattle-area butcher is selling “Beast Mode” sausage laced with Skittles, an homage to Lynch’s favorite game-time snack. Apparently it’s better than it sounds.

“O

U V

erf — The Patriots could have used one of these footballs and still crushed the Colts. oooh!” — What 100 million viewers will say when Seahawk safety Kam Chancellor tackles on an unlucky Patriot.

hysics — The chair of Boston College’s Physics Department defended the Pats against Deflategate charges, saying it would be impossible for weather to not affect the footballs. What does he know?

pV= nRT — The Quinoa ubiquitous grain has nothing to do with the Super Bowl.

welfth Man — In Seattle, the name for the raucous home crowd. In New England, an illegal extra player covered in top-secret Invisible Sauce. niversity of Belichick — Where top-secret Invisible Sauce was invented.

ollmer — When you’re 6’8”, 320 pounds and your first name is Sebastian, you get to be nicknamed “Sea Bass.” The first European ever drafted into the NFL, from Kaarst, Germany, is the Patriots’ best offensive lineman. ilfork — After the Patriots cheated their way to the Super Bowl, defensive tackle Vince Wilfork rescued a fan trapped in her car. But he probably made it up.

-Lax Factor — This is the first time two coaches in their 60s have met in the Big Game. Pete’s 63. Bill is 62, or so he claims.

Y Z

ou Mad, Bro — A famous Twitter taunt of Tom Brady by Richard Sherman.

ero — The opening point spread. Now Vegas has the Pats a 1.5 point favorite. May the best team tie. SNT

Bliss? Isn’t It

Stage critic James MacKillop previews the upcoming A Little Night Music, as Syracuse Opera sends in the clowns

ome Stephen Sondheim shows, like A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum and Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street, thrive while remaining faithful to their original conceptions. A Little Night Music, however, to be produced by Syracuse Opera over the first two February weekends, lends itself generously to re-

interpretation.

That’s because, in part, the two or three things everybody knows about the show are either misleading, or just wrong. The title is indeed a translation of Mozart’s Eine Kleine Nachtmusik, but what we hear is by no means a riff on Wolfgang. Most of the score is in waltz or three-quarters time, but the big number is the bittersweet “Send in the Clowns,” famous for lyrics with short vowels (“Isn’t it rich?/ Are we a pair?/ Me here at last on the ground/ You in midair.”). There’s also a patter song worthy of Gilbert and Sullivan. All the characters in A Little Night Music (1973) are taken from movie director Ingmar Bergman’s 1955 Swedish sex comedy Smiles of a Summer Night. But when Sondheim and his collaborators, director Hal Prince and book writer Hugh Wheeler, were getting started, they were hankering after quite a different source in France. The aim was to take a direction old-fashioned and quite at odds with the prevailing tastes of the early 1970s. They wanted a masque, a light drama set in a country house with conventional characters, especially an aging grande dame who has seen it all. The ideal playwright for this was Jean Anouilh (1910-1987), a leading force in French theater from the 1930s to the 1950s, but recently kicked aside by Theater of the Absurd and harsher forms.

Anouilh brought two other assets: a distinct melancholy romanticism and dialogue known for its mix of poetry and colloquialism. Both are conspicuously evident in A Little Night Music. The Anouilh property that had everything was Ring Around the Moon (1948). But the Frenchman said Non! And so Sondheim went shopping in Sweden. Smiles of a Summer Night, often cited as one of the top 100 movies of all time, is hardly lutefisk. Bergman, like Anouilh, was well-informed on the conventions of the masque, with characters derived from the Renaissance and the ancients, but his tone is meaner. Humiliations are sharper and comedy more acid. Generously, however, Bergman marked himself well-pleased with A Little Night Music, untroubled at having been Anouilh-ized. As A Little Night Music was produced by the New York City Opera Company in 1990, Syracuse Opera producing artistic director Douglas Kinney Frost thinks any questions about its not being an opera are outdated. He puts Sondheim’s name next to Puccini’s in his ability to dramatize the story through the music. “No composer alive can match his skill,” he says. Kinney Frost also dismisses the objection that some dialogue is

spoken, which is also true of some operas in the standard repertory. He adds, “The score is operatic in scope.” If challenge and difficulty are what separates an opera from a mere Broadway musical, A Little Night Music certainly qualifies. There are complex meters, pitch changes, polyphony and exacting high notes for both men and women. The difficulty is increased when songs merge, as in “Now,” “Later” and “Soon,” when all three have to be performed in the same key. This is all to tell the complex love stories of who yearns for whom. As Kinney Frost puts it, “Excellent storytelling through excellent music.” Although A Little Night Music is often seen as portraying refined people looking pretty, Downton Abbey with vocals, the Syracuse Opera production will bring a note of pathos in the nostalgia. The set by Scott Holderidge, who also helped stage last spring’s smash Porgy and Bess, will feature a turn-of-thelast-century ballroom that has seen better days. On the set also is a piano lacking one leg. Music serves to explicate the tangled plot lines that mix married love and adultery, while crossing class and age barriers. Middle-aged lawyer Fredrik Egerman (Peter Kendall Clark) is married to virginal (still!) 18-year-old Anne (Rachel Zatcoff), who’s younger than his son Henrik (Kevin Newell). Arriving in town is Fredrik’s old girlfriend, Desiree Armfeldt (Sarah Heltzel), a mature but still glamorous actress. With her are her mother, Madame Armfeldt (aha — the grand dame, played by local actress Kate Huddleston), and a daughter auspiciously named Fredrika (Katherine Krebs). Syracuse Opera’s move to present productions in the Mulroy Civic Center’s more intimate Carrier Theater over two weekends has met with enthusiastic audience approval. Both Sweeney Todd (February 2013) and Astor Piazzola’s tango opera Maria de Buenos Aires (February 2014) drew sellout houses. A Little Night Music, featuring “Send in the Clowns,” Sondheim’s lifetime No. 1 hit, should be an even bigger draw. SNT Syracuse Opera’s mounting of A Little Night Music will be performed over two February weekends at the Mulroy Civic Center’s Carrier Theater, 411 Montgomery St. Show times are Friday, Feb. 6, 8 p.m.; Sunday, Feb. 8, 2 p.m.; Wednesday. Feb. 11, 7:30 p.m.; Friday, Feb. 13, 8 p.m.; and Sunday, Feb. 15, 2 p.m. Tickets for the performances on Feb. 6, 11, 13 and 15 are $26, $41, $66 and $81.

REDHOUSE GOES TO THE OSCARS

F REVIEW The Redhouse continues with Gross Indecency on Wednesday, Jan. 28, 7:30 p.m.; Friday, Jan. 30, 8 p.m.; and Saturday, Jan. 31, 2 p.m. A Man of No Importance has performances on Thursday, Jan. 29, 7:30 p.m.; Saturday, Jan. 30, 8 p.m.; and Wednesday, Feb. 4, 7:30 p.m.

or the past three Januarys the Redhouse Arts Center has presented two productions in repertory on pretty much the same set, sharing many of the cast members. The two would be written by different people at different times, but as artistic director Stephen Svoboda asserted, by juxtaposing them one could be seen to be illuminating the other. By turning your head a bit and squinting, you could always sorta see his point. This year’s midwinter high wire act has never worked better. By staging two very different works, one a bittersweet musical and the other featuring the records of three successive trials from 1895, lines from shows really are illuminated or refracted in the other. That’s because one is about a bus conductor obsessed with Oscar Wilde, and the other features the ultimate wit, Wilde himself, as a tragic hero. The credits for the creative team run to more than eight pages, but the indispensable man is newfound Equity player Michael Pine, who brings extensive Shakespearean credits. Both shows run nearly two hours and 45 minutes, with Pine in most scenes. In A Man of No Importance he plays Dublin working stiff Alfie Byrne, who runs his own makeshift theater company trying to put on Wilde’s racy Salome in a church basement. He speaks and sings in an authentic Dublin accent but lacks the looks to attract either the girls or the boys. In Gross Indecency, now in a long black wig, Pine

01.28.15 - 02.03.15 | syracusenewtimes.com

gains hauteur and speaks in the cut-glass tones of London’s Mayfair. Blessed with a Barrymore-esque noble profile we do not notice in Man, Pine carries himself like a Florentine prince, and is far handsomer than the historical somewhat portly Wilde. A Man of No Importance, based on the fondly remembered Albert Finney 1994 movie, comes from playwright Terrence McNally and composer-lyricists Stephen Flaherty and Lynn Ahrens, the team behind Ragtime. Making an area premiere here, the show brings two surprises. One is, unlike the movie, that it is a love letter to the artistry of community theater. Think of it as a refutation of Christopher Guest’s snarky mockumentary Waiting for Guffman or the Bottom and the Mechanicals sequence in A Midsummer Night’s Dream. Secondly, the Flaherty-Ahrens score employs so many Irish idioms, more than in, say, Finian’s Rainbow. Among the cleverest is a patter song, “The Burden of Life,” which is part Gilbert and Sullivan,

part Irish jig, which Alfie’s sister Lily (Aubry Panek) sings when she thinks he’s found a girlfriend. Another is the plaintive love song, “The Cuddles Mary Gave,” sung by a supporting character, Baldy (Jason Timothy). Not that Irishry is laid on too heavily. One of the real showstoppers is “Going Up,” led by Alfie’s star player Carney (John Bixler), a paean to show business in the vein of Cole Porter’s “Another Op’nin’, Another Show.” Svoboda has brought in strong people from out of town, like Matthew Elliott as the bus driver Robbie. Yet he assigns some of the most fun to company regular Bixler and some of the top people from community theater, including Carmen Viviano-Crafts as the shy Adele, Aubrey Panek as the puritanical but libidinous sister Lily, plus Kathy Egloff, Leila Dean, and Lynn King. Gross Indecency, from the Victorian euphemism for unspeakable homosexual sex, was put together by Moisés Kaufman, known for The Laramie Project, a structurally similar enterprise. Except for a mock-pedantic explication of the trials spoken by a fictional professor (Chris Coffey), all words in Gross come from H. Montgomery Hyde’s diary of the proceedings, augmented by press reports and later memoirs and analyses. Kaufman footnotes ostentatiously. In a moment of catastrophic hubris Wilde began by suing the Marquis of Queensberry (John Bixler) for libel. Queensberry, the regulator of boxing protocol, was the father of Wilde’s lover Lord Alfred “Bosie” Douglas (Matthew Elliott). A bully and a thick wit, he was nonetheless no fool. Deftly turning the tables, he gets Wilde himself on trial for the second two. Tim Brown’s set design, Nikki Delhomme’s costumes, Marie Yokoyama’s lighting, Tony Vadala’s sound and Patrick Burns’ music are all excellent. Special applause, though, for Jennifer Burke’s accent direction, perfect for each nation and social class. SNT

SPRINGFIELD ESCAPES BUM’S RUSH TO JUDGMENT With news headlines such as “Rick Springfield’s butt is not guilty” (The Journal News) and “Exclusive: Rick Springfield talks infamous ‘butt injury’ lawsuit” (Yahoo Music), it hasn’t been the proudest moment in Syracuse music. The widely reported case featured Vicki Calcagno, 45, of Liverpool, who said in a 2007 lawsuit that Springfield’s buttocks had caused “serious, disabling and permanent injuries” during a 2004 performance at the New York State Fair’s Chevy Court. To the average reader, the trial might have seemed ridiculous, embarrassing or humorous. For one Salt City promoter, however, the implications of the case were much more grave. “The eyes of the nation were clearly on Syracuse,” says Frank Malfitano, Syracuse M&T Jazz Fest producer and founder. “People in the industry contacted me from New Orleans, Detroit. They were aware of the situation and monitoring it very closely. They were basically saying, ‘What’s going on up there in Syracuse?’” There were greater issues involved. “The real concern was what precedent would this case set,” Malfitano says. “What major implications would it have for every concert, fair and festival promoter and presenter in the country?” Concert security has always been a major concern for promoters and producers. There have also been high-stakes lawsuits, like the one against Ultra Music Festival 2014, where a security guard sustained a skull fracture and broken leg and the suit is more than $10 million. But the Springfield trial grabbed attention for different reasons. “It was a high-profile case with a well-known artist,” Malfitano explains. “And he showed up. A lot of trials like this, they send a lawyer or representative. It was evident that he felt very strongly about this and was prepared to accept his fate. It was clearly a little different than the average celebrity trial.” Beyond that, the trial itself was full of moments that made onlookers squirm, like Calcagno walking into trial unassisted one day and assisted the next, her admission

that the case was tough to pitch to a lawyer and that she attended another show the following week in 2004. The questions only made the stakes higher. “It was frightening,” Malfitano says. “If you’re a presenter, to think of any audience-goer bringing a claim against you, one lawsuit or claim can be big money. For a small outfit, that means you’re out of business. That’s it. It’s a very precarious position for us to be in. It really gives you pause. It was magnified in this case that you’re very vulnerable.” Malfitano also notes that potential artists and booking agents watching the case might have also started looking at Syracuse differently. “I know how hard we work to bring big-name artists in,” Malfitano says. “The last thing we need is something to make it more challenging. As it is now, there are a lot of artists who don’t want to play fairs and festivals. This would have been a huge obstacle had it gone the other way.” The spotlight indeed shone brightly on Syracuse from all corners of the media. CBS News, Ultimate Classic Rock, Newsday and more took the time to monitor the case. Luckily, the “Jessie’s Girl” superstar came out on top. “Syracuse is part of our (Jazz Fest) brand,” Malfitano says. “It’s part of our name. It’s how we promote the region. We’re very proud of our track record, city and community. At first I was more than a little embarrassed and kind of hoped it would go away. When I saw it wasn’t going away, I had a lot of newfound admiration for Rick Springfield. It was very brave of him to take a stand, to put himself in the front lines of that controversy.” Malfitano concludes, “It was an important decision. I feel very good about the outcome. I’m glad and relieved.” SNT

Nick + Noah. Summer (independent). If you’re looking to restore your faith in the musical future of America (and aren’t we all?), Nick Frenay and Noah Kellman are here to save you. Somewhere between Bruno Mars and Dave Brubeck, pop hooks and jazz intricacies, the Syracuse-bred duo impresses with their simultaneously youthful and mature delivery on this disc. The five-song EP begins with a modern-indie feel yet also features a retro horn line, as the fellas lull you with their ultra-sweet and light sounds. “Open for Consideration” is a smart pop tune with an immediate earworm vocal line, as the airy voices float above the melody effortlessly. “Hallelujah” turns a classic Leonard Cohen tune on its head. Stark and engrossing at the start, it takes a quick turn into a bouncing jazz romp. According to the liner notes, Frenay contributes lead and background vocals, electric bass, acoustic/electric guitar, acoustic piano, trumpet, flugelhorn and trombone, while Noah Kellman (who has studied at the Brubeck Institute) adds lead and background vocals, acoustic guitar, acoustic piano, organ, keys and synths. Both deliver the goods on every instrument, including their delicate harmonies. Additional talents feature Jimmy Navarra (drums, shakers, tambourine, congas, guira, clave), Sam Crowe (flute, alto sax) and Chase Potter (violin). Frenay and Kellman look playfully stoic on Summer’s album cover (straight faces with Hawaiian shirts), yet there is no doubt this pair will be impressing ears for years to come. Summer is one of four seasonal-themed CDs masterminded by the duo; their new EP Winter was issued during the holidays.

Chastain and Oscar Isaac in A Most Violent Year.

CORRUPTION FUELS A BIG APPLE CRIME STORY

et during New York City’s winter of 1981, writer-director J.C. Chandor’s urban drama A Most Violent Year earns its title from some sobering statistics: The not-so-Fun City served as a troubling backdrop for rapes, robberies and more than 2,100 murders before the year ended. Although Rudy Giuliani’s mayoral administration would clean up the Big Apple over the next decade, the grim vision of Manhattan as a literal hell on Earth nevertheless spawned far more cinematic brickbats (think of Martin Scorsese’s Taxi Driver or Walter Hill’s The Warriors) than love letters (Woody Allen’s rhapsodic Manhattan) during the 1970s and early 1980s. Chandor doesn’t get nearly as atmospheric, yet he does heap some grit, graffiti and grime atop his sleek crime story about an immigrant entrepreneur trying to do the right thing while living the American dream. Given such honorable intentions, however, Chandor’s protagonist might seem a little too good to be true. Abel Morales (played by Inside Llewyn Davis’ Oscar Isaac), magnate of the Standard Oil company, is eyeing coveted waterfront property, owned by an Orthodox Jewish rabbi (Jerry Adler, looking like Robert Loggia), that will greatly enhance Standard’s business viability. Abel has 30 days to secure sufficient financing to seal the bargain, but that’s plenty of time for such

01.28.15 - 02.03.15 | syracusenewtimes.com

high hopes to head south. For starters, Standard’s oil trucks have become easy targets for daytime hijackings, perhaps initiated by a rival fuel outfit. The Teamsters demand that Standard’s drivers should start carrying guns for protection, which Abel opposes on moral and legal grounds. There’s also a pesky district attorney (David Oyelowo, who has won acclaim for his work as Martin Luther King in Selma) who intends to nail Abel on fraud charges. At Abel’s side, for better and for worse, is his sexy spouse Anna (Jessica Chastain), a mobster’s hard-nosed daughter who knows what needs to be accomplished for the business to prosper, even if it means cooking some books. Chandor’s third feature, following the 2011 Wall Street drama Margin Call and 2013’s All Is Lost featuring Robert Redford’s one-man show, has been pegged by some reviewers as reminiscent of the late Sidney Lumet, the auteur of Manhattan-based classics such as Serpico, Dog Day Afternoon and Prince of the City. While flattering praise, Chandor ultimately lacks Lumet’s kinetic urgency to merit that

comparison. Instead, A Most Violent Year feels more connected to Francis Ford Coppola’s Godfather features, especially with Chandor’s handling of the shadowy backroom dynamics that drive corrupt doings. Oscar Isaac’s performance likewise takes a cue from Al Pacino’s best work, as Abel’s intense brooder attempts to stay in the game despite considerable obstacles. It’s all about eye contact for Abel. In one memorable scene that shows him lecturing newbie door-to-door salespeople on how to close a deal, Abel maintains that staring down a potential heating-oil client, even past the point of squirmy discomfort, is the best way to get him to sign up. Chandor’s moody melodrama does take a few breaks from behind-the-doors machinations, however, with a pair of well-staged action sequences involving Standard’s oil rigs. The first takes place in broad daylight as a Standard trucker fires shots at thugs while defending his cargo atop the busy 59th Street bridge. The second sequence concerns Abel’s manic pursuit of one of his stolen trucks as it careens through elevated train tunnels. Both interludes are handled with brisk efficiency, as Chandor’s cameras take viewers to fresh locations that do not seem to have been glimpsed a zillion times on TV’s Law & Order. Director Chandor coaxes a brassy turn from Jessica Chastain, whose Anna sounds like a flinty GoodFellas hausfrau, plus she has some scene-stealing bits that include a casually shocking moment involving some road kill. Elyes Gabel offers a sympathetic performance as a gun-toting Standard driver who becomes an unfortunate casualty in Abel’s struggles against the district attorney. And comic actor Albert Brooks, as Abel’s trustworthy lawyer, commendably plays it straight, even as he’s emoting underneath a truly odd hairpiece that feels like it belongs on an American Hustle noggin.

SOURCES OF INFORMATION AND ASSISTANCE The state encourages you to become informed about your options in foreclosure. In addition to seeking assistance from an attorney or legal aid office, there are government agencies and non-

profit organizations that you may contact for information about possible options, including trying to work with your lender during this process. To locate an entity near you, you may call the toll-free helpline maintained by the New York State Department of Financial Services at 1-800-342-3736 or the Foreclosure Relief Hotline 1-800-269-0990 or visit the department’s website at WWW.DFS. NY.GOV. FORECLOSURE RESCUE SCAMS Be careful of people who approach you with offers to “save” your home. There are individuals who watch for notices of foreclosure actions in order to unfairly profit from a homeowner’s distress. You should be extremely careful about any such promises and any suggestions that you pay them a fee or sign over your deed. State law requires anyone offering such services for profit to enter into a contract which fully describes the services they will perform and fees they will charge, and which prohibits them from taking any money from you until they have completed all such promised services. §1303 NOTICE NOTICE YOU ARE IN DANGER OF LOSING YOUR HOME If you do not respond to this summons and complaint by serving a copy of the answer on the attorney for the mortgage company who has filed this foreclosure proceeding against you and filing the answer with the court, a default judgment may be entered and you can lose your home. Speak to an attorney or go to the court where your case is pending for further information on how to answer the summons and protect your property. Sending a payment to your mortgage company will not stop this foreclosure action.

F R E E W I L L A S T R O LO G Y ARIES (March 21-April 19) Do you have an

entourage or posse that helps you work magic you can’t conjure up alone? Is there a group of co-conspirators that prods you to be brave and farseeing? If not, try to whip one up. And if you do have an inspirational crew, brainstorm about some new adventures for all of you to embark on. Scheme and dream about the smart risks and educational thrills you could attempt together. According to my reading of the astrological omens, you especially need the sparkle and rumble that a feisty band of allies can incite.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) The cosmos

seems to be granting you a license to be brazenly ambitious. I’m not sure how long this boost will last, so I suggest you capitalize on it while it’s surging. What achievement have you always felt insufficiently prepared or powerful to accomplish? What person or club or game have you considered to be out of your league? What issue have you feared was beyond your understanding? Rethink your assumptions. At least one of those “impossibilities” may be more possible than usual.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) When I attended

the University of California at Santa Cruz, my smartest friend was Gemini writer Clare Cavanagh. She headed off to Harvard for her graduate studies, and later became a pre-eminent translator of Polish poetry. Her work has been so skillful that Nobel Prize-winning Polish poet Czselaw Milosz selected her as his authorized biographer. Interviewing Milosz was a tough job, Clare told blogger Cynthia Haven. He was demanding. He insisted that she come up with “questions no one’s asked me yet.” And she did just that, of course. Formulating evocative questions is a Gemini specialty. I invite you to exercise that talent to the hilt in the coming week. It’s prime time for you to celebrate a Curiosity Festival.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) “Somewhere someone is traveling furiously toward you,” writes poet John Ashbery, “at incredible speed, traveling day and night, through blizzards and desert heat, across torrents, through narrow passes. But will he know where to find you, recognize you when he sees you, give you the thing he has for you?” This passage might not be literally true, Cancerian. There may be no special person who is headed your way from a great distance, driven by a rapt intention to offer you a blessing. But I think Ashbery’s scenario is accurate in a metaphorical way. Life is, in fact, working overtime to bring you gifts and help. Make sure you cooperate! Heighten your receptivity. Have a nice long talk with yourself, explaining why you deserve such beneficence. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) In 1768, Britain’s Royal

Society commissioned navigator James Cook to lead a long naval voyage west to Tahiti, where he and his team were supposed to study the planet Venus as it made a rare transit across the face of the sun. But it turned out that task was a prelude. Once the transit was done, Cook opened the sealed orders he had been given before leaving England. They revealed a second, bigger assignment, kept secret until then: to reconnoiter the rumored continent that lay west of Tahiti. In the coming months, he became the first European to visit the east coast of Australia. I foresee a comparable progression for you, Leo. The task you’ve been working on lately has been a prelude. Soon you’ll receive your “sealed orders” for the next leg of your journey.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) According to computer security company Symantec, you’re not in major danger of contracting an online virus from a porn website. The risk is much greater when you visit religious websites. Why? They’re often built by inexperienced programmers, and as a result are more susceptible to hackers’ attacks. In the coming weeks, Virgo, there may be a similar principle at work in your life. I suspect you’re more likely to be undermined by

nice, polite people than raw, rowdy folks. I’m not advising you to avoid the do-gooders and sweet faces. Just be careful that their naivete doesn’t cause problems. And in the meantime, check out what the raw, rowdy folks are up to.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) Life has a big, tough assignment for you. Let’s hope you’re up for the challenge. There’s not much wiggle room, I’m afraid. Here it is: You must agree to experience more joy and pleasure. The quest for delight and enchantment has to rise to the top of your priority list. To be mildly entertained isn’t enough. To be satisfied with lukewarm arousal is forbidden. It’s your sacred duty to overflow with sweet fulfillment and interesting bliss. Find ways to make it happen!

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) You may have never sampled the southeast Asian fruit called durian. It’s controversial. Some people regard it as the “king of fruits,” and describe its taste as sweet and delicious. Naturalist Alfred Russel Wallace said it was like “a rich custard highly flavored with almonds.” But other people find the durian unlikable, comparing its aroma to turpentine or decaying onions. TV chef Anthony Bourdain asserts that its “indescribable” taste is “something you will either love or despise.” I foresee the possibility that your imminent future will have metaphorical resemblances to the durian, Scorpio. My advice? Don’t take things personally. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) Talking will be your art form in the coming week. It’ll be healing and catalytic. You could set personal records for most engaging phone conversations, emails, text messages and face-to-face dialogues. The sheer intensity of your self-expression could intimidate some people, excite others, and generate shifts in your social life. Here are a few tips to ensure the best results. First, listen as passionately as you speak. Second, make it your intention to communicate, not just unload your thoughts. Tailor your messages for your specific audience. Third, reflect on the sometimes surprising revelations that emerge from you. They’ll give you new insights into yourself. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) Let’s say you

want to buy an 18-karat gold ring. To get that much gold, miners had to excavate and move six tons of rock. Then they doused the rock with poisonous cyanide, a chemical that’s necessary to extract the good stuff. In the process, they created toxic waste. Is the gold ring worth that much trouble? While you ponder that, let me ask you a different question. What if I told you that over the course of the next five months, you could do what’s necessary to obtain a metaphorical version of a gold ring? And although you would have to process the equivalent of six tons of raw material to get it, you wouldn’t have to use poison or make a mess. Would you do it?

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) In 1899, the

king of the African nation of Swaziland died while dancing. His only son, Sobhuza, was soon crowned as his successor, despite being just 4 months old. It took a while for the new king to carry out his duties with aplomb, and he needed major guidance from his grandmother and uncle. Eventually he showed great aptitude for the job, though, and ruled until his death at age 83. I’m getting a Sobhuza-type vibe as I meditate on you, Aquarius. New power may come to you before you’re fully ready to wield it. But I have confidence you will grow into it, especially if you’re not shy about seeking help.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) In the 1951 ani-

mated movie version of Alice in Wonderland, Alice says to herself, “I give myself very good advice, but I very seldom follow it.” I hope you won’t be like her, Pisces. It’s an excellent time for you to heed your own good advice. In fact, I suspect that doing so will be crucial to your ability to make smart decisions and solve a knotty problem. This is one of those turning points when you really have to practice what you preach. You’ve got to walk your talk.

Chiefs’ Hot Stove Night. Michael Davis photo

CHIEFS HOT STOVE EVENT SELLS OUT

t was only fitting that the Syracuse Chiefs had legendary pitcher Tommy John as the special guest at their annual Hot Stove Baseball Dinner, because the Chiefs, like John’s left arm, have come back from the dead.

In 1974, John underwent a then-radical surgical procedure during which a tendon from his right arm was transplanted into his left elbow to replace a torn ulnar collateral ligament. Even the doctor who performed the surgery, Frank Jobe, put John’s chances of ever pitching again in the majors at 1 in 100. John, who was 31 at the time, won 164 major-league games after the surgery — still the most ever for a pitcher after he has undergone what is now routinely known as “Tommy John surgery.” As for the Chiefs, they were on life support after the 2013 season, when the team was saddled with nearly $1 million in losses by the previous management team. But the Chiefs’ board of directors replaced general manager John Simone with Jason Smorol, and the Chiefs reached the playoffs for the first time since 1998 and cut their losses by about 75 percent. The good vibes from the 2014 season continued Jan. 23, when the Chiefs sold out the 55th Hot Stove Baseball Dinner, as the crowd of 600 set a record for the event.

01.28.15 - 02.03.15 | syracusenewtimes.com

“Tommy John made a comeback, and the Chiefs are going to make a comeback,” Smorol said. “And he was better after his surgery, and I’m hoping we are better after our comeback.” The Chiefs still have some work to do, as their actual fannies-in-the-seats attendance of 247,046 in 2014 was a franchise-record low. But before 2014, management reported tickets sold or given away, not actual attendance, and Smorol’s policy of eliminating free tickets meant there were more fans who paid for their seats. Smorol said he hopes the sellout crowd at the Hot Stove is a sign that more people will come out to NBT Bank Stadium in 2015. “I hope it says that people are getting on board, I hope it says that we’re doing the right things, and I hope it says that we are doing what we said we’re going to do when we said that we want to build relationships and engage the fans,” Smorol said. “And that people are buying in to the Syracuse Chiefs and that we’re fun and we’re about the community.” The Hot Stove event was a grand slam, with popular 93Q morning radio hosts Amy Rob-

bins and Ted Long as the MCs; a silent auction of sports memorabilia benefiting the Syracuse Challenger Baseball Program, Special Olympics of New York and the Upstate New York chapter of the ALS Association; and special guests like John, Chiefs manager Billy Gardner Jr. and Washington Nationals Director of Player Development Doug Harris (Washington is the Chiefs’ major-league affiliate). “This is a great outing,” said longtime Chiefs fan Marty Nave, of Syracuse. “All those negative remarks that Syracuse doesn’t support baseball, the stadium should be someplace else, the fans only support a winner. This (event) shows that baseball is alive and well in Syracuse.” Jim Durkin, of Schroeppel, has been a vendor at Chiefs games for 56 years and has attended just about every Hot Stove event. He said he can’t remember the fans having as much fun as they did as this year’s event. “It’s such a pleasure to be at this venue and see the fans with their kids having such a wonderful time,” Durkin said. “Jason (Smorol) has been working hard to get the fans back, and I’m proud to be associated with him. “I can’t wait,” Durkin added, “for opening day.” SNT Matt Michael is a freelance writer based in Syracuse.

Americans are expected to eat 1.25 million chicken wing sections on Super Bowl Sunday, according to the National Chicken Council. Thank you, Anchor Bar.

By Margaret McCormick

FOOTBALL? SUNDAY IT’LL BE MORE LIKE FOODBALL Here’s hoping “Deflategate” doesn’t take any air out of the great American tradition of Super Bowl Sunday and related activities, like drinking beer, eating fattening foods and hosting parties. The New England Patriots and the Seattle Seahawks will square off at 6:30 p.m. Sunday, Feb. 1, and even those of us who don’t give a hoot about football can get “pumped up” about the Super Bowl buffet table. It is said that more pizza and chicken wings are consumed on Super Bowl Sunday than on any other day of the year. If you go that route, give your business to a locally owned pizza parlor. And consider the “wow” factor of a chocolate pizza and peanut butter “wings” (rippled potato chips covered in peanut butter and dipped in chocolate) from the Chocolate Pizza Company for dessert (www.chocolatepizza.com). Here are some other ideas:

Kandied Kernel Facebook photo

The Kandied Kernel is a gourmet popcorn shop with two locations in the northern suburbs. Go sweet with flavors like signature karamel, sea salt karamel and blueberry cheesecake, or go savory with pickle juice, hot wing sauce and kreme cheese popcorn. Popular this time of year is Kuse Mix, caramel and cheese popcorn mixed together. For a Super Bowl party that really “pops,’’ go all out and set up a popcorn bar. The Kandied Kernel is at 663 Old Liverpool Road, Liverpool, and 8124 Brewerton Road, Cicero. Information: www.kandiedkernel.com No party is complete without chips and salsa. Off the Cob corn chips, made in Ithaca with locally grown sweet corn, have a slightly sweet taste — a perfect partner for Primo and Mary’s medium or mild black bean and corn salsa. The chips are available at some Wegmans stores. Look for Primo and Mary’s at Tops stores; Natur-Tyme, in DeWitt; and other locations. Information: www.offthecobchips.com; primoandmarys.com Bleu Hot: You may have sampled and purchased this locally made, creamy bleu cheese and hot sauce-based dip, dressing and sauce at the Central New York Regional Market. It’s tasty with potato chips, tortilla chips, vegetables and chicken wings and adds a little zip to dishes like macaroni and cheese. “Sauce Lady” Lisa Corl isn’t at the market this winter and isn’t scheduled for another Bleu Hot production run until spring, but she can accommodate a limited number of Super Bowl orders. Information: 592-1295.

Middle Eastern flavor: For something different, and healthful, put out bowls of hummus (chickpea spread), baba ghanuj (eggplant spread) and labneh (creamy farmers cheese dip) with toasted pita bread or store-bought pita chips. Leave the cooking to Byblos Mediterranean Cafe, in downtown Syracuse. Be sure to order ahead, 48 hours in advance, preferred. Information: 478-3333, byblossyr.com

Monkey business: Make your own party dip with Cheeky Monkey Tomato Garlic Dipping Oil (original, Politely Spicy or Solidly Spicy). Cheeky Monkey products are available at Tops and Nice ‘n’ Easy stores in the Syracuse area, plus Syracuse Real Food Co-Op, Vince’s Gourmet Imports, Natur-Tyme, Green Planet Grocery and other locations. Information: www.cheekymonkeyfoods. com Meatballs in a bread boat: If you love Columbus Baking Company’s famous meatballs in a heel (meatballs plus sauce in the heel of a crusty loaf of bread), you’ll love the meatball boat for a crowd: a Columbus round loaf, 18 meatballs and sauce. Hollow out the bread and fill with meatballs and sauce. Order in advance. Columbus Baking/Columbus Meats and Cheeses is at 502 Pearl St. Information: 422-2913. Ascioti’s got game: Super Bowl specials at Ascioti’s to Go, in Liverpool, include the Touch Down (six links of Italian sausage, six peppers and onions and six rolls) and the Dome (a flat loaf of DiLauro’s Bakery Italian bread stuffed with capicola, Genoa salami, roasted red peppers, provolone and Salt City Hometown Hungarian Peppers. Advance orders only. Ascioti’s to Go is at 207 Oswego St., Liverpool. Information: 457-0683. SNT Margaret McCormick is a freelance writer and editor in Syracuse.
