AcĂşstica releases debut CD Enjoy ‘Cuatro Vidas’ at ASOC Playhouse ASTORIA — Astoria-based band AcĂşstica will hold a release concert for its debut CD, “Cuatro Vidas,â€? at 7:30 p.m. Sunday, Oct. 13 at the Astor Street Opry Company Playhouse. AcĂşstica, featuring multilingual vocalist Dolores Villareal-Levine, performs in six languages and has a global, vintage style with songs from the 1930s to the 1960s. Band members include John Orr on guitar and harmony vocals, Dave Ambrose on upright bass and Matt Crichton on Latin percussion. The band’s album, “Cuatro Vidas,â€? is named after a Mexican song that was performed by Villareal-Levine’s father, Edward Villareal, back in the day. The English translation of “cuatro vidasâ€? is “four lives,â€? and it was selected to represent the four band members that make up the group. The

CD was recorded at Bentrabbit Audio Productions in Astoria with the invaluable expertise of Dave Gager. Local musician, Ray Coffey, is a featured musical guest on the album as well. CDs and AcĂşstica T-shirts will be available for sale at the event. The evening will begin with a pre-concert at 7 p.m., featurLQJ JXHVW Ă€DPHQFR JXLWDULVW David Villareal, who is Villareal-Levine’s brother.

Sassparilla has played in town previously: a show at the Fort George Brewery in April and as part of the brewery’s Halloween Hellorium last October. The band gave a fun punk-Americana performance complete with eye-catching instruments: a cigar-box guitar, a washtub bass, a washboard and a lively harmonica. All in all, it was a great save by organizers and a fun community event.

the move. The downtown buildings helped shelter the outdoor activities from the wind, and a large, shared tent provided coverage from most of the rain. The indoor venue allowed people to dry off, sit down and enjoy the live music. While the event center wasn’t as large as the normal outdoor location on the riverfront, it gave the festival a cozy vibe. The dancing started in earnest when Sassparilla, a foot-stomping bluegrass band from Portland, took the stage to close out Saturday night.

Insider’s Tip: If you’re driving to get from place to place on the tour, know that parking around Mill Pond Village can be a little challenging. The best parking is around the edge of the neighborhood on 23rd and 29th streets.

OSU professor to speak about GMOs Beers to Your Health offers two-part lecture series ASTORIA — The Astoria Coop’s lecture series Beers to Your Health will put geneticalO\ PRGL¿HG RUJDQLVPV LQ WKH spotlight, looking at multiple sides of the controversial issue in a series of two lectures. GMOs are plants or animals whose genes have been altered by scientists with DNA from different species of organisms, bacteria or viruses in order to gain traits such as resistance to disease or tolerance of pesticides. GMOs are present in many conventional foods on U.S. supermarket shelves, but some people question potential health risks, environmental harm, plus farmer and consumer rights. Japan suspended buying certain varieties of wheat from the U.S. after experimental JHQHWLFDOO\ PRGL¿HG ZKHDW created by Monsanto Co. mys-

teriously appeared on an Oregon farm last spring. The U.S. Department of Agriculture has never approved any strains of GMO wheat to be grown in our country and is investigating how this breach happened. A Monsanto representative speculated that anti-biotech activists stole some of the GMO wheat and planted it to create problems for the company. Meantime, reporters called on an expert from Oregon State University for a perspective on how the GMO wheat HQGHG XS LQ WKH ÂżHOG 5REHUW Zemetra, a professor of wheat breeding and genetics, contradicted Monsanto’s theory. He thinks it was an ordinary mistake. Zemetra says it was his “15 minutes of fameâ€? when he was quoted in Forbes, the Wall Street Journal, on 135 DQG RWKHU ZRUOG PHGLD outlets. Zemetra will travel from Corvallis to Astoria to speak RQ *02V IURP D VFLHQWLÂżF standpoint. Much of his current research focuses on developing new varieties of wheat

for Oregon. He also has a special project to look at modern versus traditional strains of wheat and its effect on gluten intolerance and celiac disease. In his presentation, he plans to explain what it means when a plant is genetically engineered and then answer questions. He believes the science is safe when it comes to human consumption. “My attitude is that people who don’t want GMOs, for ZKDWHYHU UHDVRQ WKDWÂśV ÂżQH – but you can’t justify something on no science or bad science,â€? Zemetra said. You can hear Zemetra’s presentation on GMOs Thursday Oct. 10 at the Fort George Lovell Showroom, located at 426 14th St. in Astoria. Doors open at 6 p.m. with food and drinks available from the taproom. The lecture starts at 7 p.m. and lasts for an hour. It is free and open to all ages.

Nimble-fingered notes bounced off the walls of the historic Oysterville Church as classical guitarist Scott Kritzer performed a solo show as part of the 2012 Water Music Festival. Kritzer’s hour-long set was one of four concerts that made up the festival last year.

A short history of the Water Music Festival’s evolution: from Baroque to Count Basie It all started in 1984 when a group of music lovers on the Long Beach Peninsula got together. Some played instruments, some sang, some did both and some did neither. Their common denominator: They were all fond of listening to music – at the time, specifically chamber music. “Why shouldn’t and why couldn’t they find some professional musicians, sell some tickets to pay said musicians, and book the Oysterville Church for a concert?” they mused. Calling their first concert Baroque and Beyond – well, the rest is history. Baroque has for the past 29 years gone way, way Beyond. (In case a short refreshing of your baroque-brain-button is needed, Baroque music is the beautiful chamber music spanning from 1600 to 1750. Fancy-looking, heavily wigged people, dressed in heavy ruffles, gathered in western European courts to listen to skilled musicians (such as Bach, Handel and Couperin) play some really good music.) A one-night concert led to a weekend of music. One group of musicians playing mainly Baroque compositions has led to a roster of musicians playing many genres of music. Name a known composer, past or present, and talented musicians from all around the region, and there’s a good chance the Water Music Festival has considered where they might fit into the yearly festival. Classical or current, the beat goes on. 12 | October 10, 2013 | coastweekend.com

The 2013

Water Music FESTIVAL

American music is front and center and never misses a beat Story by MARILYN GILBAUGH

S

weet, sorrowful or swinging, Americans love the magic of music, especially music created by our own U.S. composers. Melodies mean memories – sometimes a sad goodbye, a wink and a smile, a belly laugh or a new love. In the same vein, the Water Music Festival has entertained us for almost 30 years. Since 1984 it has made music and memories on Washington’s Long Beach Peninsula. This season, Friday and Saturday, Oct. 11 and 12, three Water Music Festival concerts celebrate American composers – music by Gershwin, Duke

Ellington and Cole Porter for starters. Friday night, arrive at Ilwaco, Wash.’s Inn at Harbour Village around 6:30 p.m. and enjoy something from the cheese and the no-host wine bar before the show gets underway at 7 p.m. The North Coast Chorale, conducted by Denise Reed, opens the all-American festival and sets the mood with Bernstein and Ellington. The Greta Matassa Quartet follows. Voted Northwest vocalist of the year by Earshot Jazz seven times in 15 years, Matassa’s latest CD, “I Wanna be Loved,” remained on national radio jazz charts for three months.

“Echoing Rosie Clooney’s natural warmth and Nancy Wilson’s impeccable phrasing,” Matassa’s vocals are backed by piano, bass and drums, according to JazzTimes magazine. She sings tributes to songsters like Billie Holiday and Frank Sinatra “while making each song unmistakably her own,” adds The Seattle Times. Next up: At noon Saturday in the historic Oysterville Church in Oysterville, Wash., it’s a return to the scene of the first 1984 Water Music Festival concert. Twenty-eight years later not much has changed in the old church, but the festival has come a long way. Celebrating American composers, barbershop quartets are as American as jazz players and country-western bands. Social InSecurity (yes you read that correctly), a national award-winning barbershop quartet, will delight and amuse with its four-member a capella talents. Don Kileen, the group’s leader from California, is joined by bass Marty Anderson, baritone Bob Martindale and tenor Gary Raze. The men cover the map with experience and award-winning honors. Blending harmonies, a couple of them have spent time honing comedy routines over the years; so get ready to laugh. And if there’s a chance, be sure and ask Raze about his Les Schwab stab at commercial stardom. Saturday evening a little farther up the road, if a wine bar and complimentary appetizers don’t lure you to Leadbetter Farms Lighthouse to enjoy the sunset over the ocean, the location in itself should. The Water Music Festival wraps up its 2013 season on a high note, quite literally. The private estate of Leadbetter Farms, owned by Craig Tillotson, takes fantasy and whimsy to new levels. “It’s worth the ticket price just to enjoy the building and grounds, let alone the uplifting music,” said Diane Marshall, festival vice president and chairwoman. The “farm,” located at the tip of the Long Beach Peninsula at the far north end of I Street in Ocean Park, Wash., leaves no doubt: Guests will know when they’ve arrived. Gargoyles nod hello, and the first set of serious entry gates swing open. Pass through them and wind down the roadway through several hundred acres of forest. Next: very large, very tall dragons breath and belch fire (weather permitting), protecting the second set of ornately detailed, seriously strong main entry gates. Proceed. Gawk. Turn left, and enter what can only be described as a true fantasy destination. And remember: This is all before the reason you came – the music! Gates open at 5:45 p.m. and will remain open until 7 p.m., when the evening concert commences. The early admittance gives ticket holders a chance to enjoy the interior and the exterior of the lighthouse and the delectable appetizers and beverages. Background music will be provided by talented Young Artists from the area. Back by popular demand, at 7 p.m., it’s the TangleTown Trio. Mezzo-soprano and composer

Sarah Mattox, violinist and violist Jo Nardolillo, and pianist Judith Cohen will present an all-American mix of well-known pieces, little-known pieces by famous composers and some new original pieces written by Mattox over the past couple of years. Much of the program is funny, and all of it is exciting. Get ready to enjoy the music of Cole Porter and Gershwin, Broadway show tunes and more.

The ensemble has critical accolades and awards from throughout the U.S. and far beyond. Read more about them and their accomplishments at www. tangletowntrio.com. The Water Music Festival celebrates American composers this year with an all-star lineup. Whatever is to come, whether classical or current, one thing is certain: The beat goes on, and it’s guaranteed to be a good one.

Water Music Festival 2013 www.WaterMusicFestival.com 360-665-4466 Friday, Oct. 11 Inn at Harbour Village 120 Williams Ave., Ilwaco, Wash.

One lucky piano, one talented pianist – and many lucky audiences TangleTown pianist Judith Cohen will perform Saturday at Leadbetter Farms, an exceptional site, on an exceptional Steinway piano with quite an exceptional history. For almost 20 years, the piano played an integral part in Ilwaco High School concerts, plays and graduations, as well as in community concerts. By the mid-1980s, the Steinway had sustained considerable damage and was retired to storage. In 1987, Water Music Festival President-at-the-time Ann Kischner organized volunteers to move the piano to Hilltop Auditorium. That same year, the festival initiated the $5,000 Steinway Restoration Project. To protect the instrument, a humidity-controlled garage was built (affectionately called Fort Steinway). The festival also purchased an adjustable artist’s bench, a rolling dolly and a quilted dust cover. With additional fundraising, the Steinway received extensive reconditioning and touch-up work. The restoration was completed in 1990, and the piano was valued at $26,000. Coincidentally, after its restoration, Cohen was one of the first pianists to play the piano (an action she’ll repeat this year). The Steinway will be carefully moved to Leadbetter Farms Lighthouse for the 2013 concert. The piano’s “singing voice” has been praised by concert pianists, and because of the purchase of the piano by the school board and the restoration efforts undertaken by the Water Music Festival, the Long Beach Peninsula community has a fine instrument indeed.

Guido & Vito’s Italian Cuisine Authentic flavors and well-prepared dishes equal a very good Italian restaurant

O

On the top of my list of regrets is that I’ve never had the opportunity to visit Italy, and yet I have always had a fondness for all things Italian. Perhaps it’s because as a food lover I admire cultures in which a large part of their national identity is their cuisine. Of all the many types of ethnic food one could prepare, I have spent the most time in my own kitchen trying to master Italian cuisine, and just the slightest mention of something Italian is enough to get me into the kitchen, making a sauce. I’ve watched “La Dolce Vita” and “Cinema Paradiso” more times than I can count, and I will even get a craving for Italian after watching “The Godfather “(both one and two, but I think we can all agree on not mentioning the third). Sadly for me, though there are scads of Chinese and Mexican restaurants on the coast, the hungry public is sorely lacking good Italian restaurants. Enter Guido & Vito’s Italian Cuisine in Seaside, which is, for lack of better phrasing, a very good Italian restaurant in a city without many others. You know it’s a positive sign when you enter a restaurant and diners near the door congratulate you on making a wise dining-out choice, which is exactly what happened to my fellow diners and me on the night we visited. The man who addressed us was a local, he said, and dines at the restaurant on a regular basis. +is word held true through our ¿rst appeti]er, scampi-style shrimp and green-lipped mussels in a broth of butter, white wine, garlic and rosemary, with crostini for dipping. I found the shrimp perhaps the tiniest bit overcooked, which is easy to do, but the broth was delightful. There was an extra Àavor I couldn’t Tuite put my ¿n-

ger on, perhaps champagne vinegar, as the broth was delicately Àavored with the tiniest punch of tanginess. I also thought a second appeti]er of bruschetta, toasted baguette with a traditional tomato, olive and mushroom tapenade, was well done. $gain, I pu]]led over the Àavors If I’m not mistaken, I noticed a surprising, liTuorice-like taste of anise or fennel; I enjoy being surprised in this way, if the Àavors work. The balsamic vinegar base of the tapenade seemed a bit heavy-handed to me, though, and was overwhelmingly sweet, but overall the dish was still better than average. I boldly selected the most expensive item on the menu, cioppino, a traditional, hearty ¿sherman’s stew with a robust tomato broth. $fter ordering, I wondered if the dish could pos-

It’s a positive sign when you enter a restaurant and diners near the door congratulate you on making a wise dining-out choice.

Guido & Vito’s Italian Cuisine Rating: 604 Broadway Seaside, OR 97138 503-717-1229 14 | October 10, 2013 | coastweekend.com

The cioppino, a traditional fisherman’s stew with a robust tomato broth, is the most expensive item on the restaurant’s menu, but the Mouth felt the flavor and quantity of seafood in the dish warrented the pricetag.

sibly merit its rather hefty price tag of $30, but when it was presented to me, I was impressed. Chock-full of seafood – including giant crab legs, shrimp, mussels, steamer clams, and scallops, all packed densely into a rich, rather spicy sauce, with garlic bread on the side – the cioppino was fairly priced and delicious. A fellow diner loved the earthy spiciness of the penne rustica, with a bold red pepper sauce and large slices of Italian sausage. This was also a very large portion, and a meritorious balance of spice and Àavor. Also pleasingly spiced was the aglio e olio, a simple dish of garlic, olives and pimientos sautéed in olive oil, sprinkled with red

HOURS: Open from 11:30 a.m. to 9:30 p.m. daily. PRICE: Entrées range from $12 to $30, with most hovering at the $18 to $22 price point. My cioppino, at $30, was the most expensive item on the menu, but I thought it deserving of the price tag, given the sheer quantity of the seafood alone. All entrées come with a soup or salad, a practice that is becoming less common in American dining, so I appreciate this and believe it adds value. SERVICE: Although our server didn’t seem to know a lot about Italian cuisine, he was gracious and self-deprecating about the fact and very friendly and accommodating.

pepper and tossed with angel hair pasta. Aglio e olio is a simple but satisfying dish, and though there was a bit too much red pepper for my liking, the other diners at the table all enjoyed it. A large plate of lasagna rounded out the entrées. Lasagna is a dish that has become exceedingly popular in the U.S., and as such I think any Italian restaurant must feel Tuite challenged to produce a lasagna that is top notch. I don’t know that the version served at Guido & Vito’s is the best lasagna I’ve ever had, but it is most certainly better than average and spilling over with Tuality ingredients, including slices of fresh mo]]arella melted on the top, which I thought was an artful touch. Ever the consummate dessert orderer, even when I’m already full, I simply couldn’t pass up the sweet cream panna cotta with raspberry sauce, as I love panna cotta. It was exceptionally good, with layers of the dense, sweet, pudding-like cream atop layers of subtly sweet raspberry sauce. It was a lovely ¿nish to a lovely meal. With only a handful of Italian restaurants on the coast, the moniker of “best” probably doesn’t carry the weight that it otherwise might, but I found the Àavors at Guido & Vito’s to be authentic, and each dish I sampled was prepared exceedingly well – certainly some of the best Italian food I have had on the coast in Tuite some time. I plan to return to Guido & Vito’s when I’m “off the clock” and encourage fellow diners to do the same. Buon appetito!

ATMOSPHERE: There is a warm ambiance that pervades the dimly lit restaurant, and many “cute” decorating details try to mimic an Italian trattoria. It is a pleasant, warm, inviting space. ALTERNATIVE OPTIONS: Gluten-free pasta may be substituted for regular pasta in most cases, and there are a few vegetable-only items on the menu. DRINKS: Beer and a better-than-average wine list, plus some signature mixed drinks, and coffee, tea and soft drinks.

Embrace the ethic of upcycling at CARTM Trashion Show Upcycle Party to feature dancing and creative decor, Eco Raffle winners drawn

NEHALEM — Re-think fall fashion – think trashion! CARTM’s beloved Trashion Show/Upcycle Party is coming up at 7 p.m. Saturday, Oct. 12 at the NCRD Auditorium. The event is a two-part experience that begins with a classic fashion runway show in the auditorium and culminates in an after-party to celebrate and get up close and personal with the models and trashion designers. This popular creative fundraiser for CARTM continues to push the boundaries of what materials can be upcycled into something not only wearable but fashionable. Upcycling is the act of taking material and giving it a new use. “The idea of making clothing from non-typical materials has caught on world wide,� said Trashion Show coordinator Mary Moran. “All age

‘Home is less a physical place than a feeling’ Neal Maine hosts documentary screening Irish singer performs CD release concert at Hoffman Center Learn about conservationist Aldo Leopold in ‘Green Fire’

MANZANITA — On Sunday, Oct. 13, the Hoffman Center will host Irish singer Colleen Raney with master button accordion player Johnny B. Connolly and guitar/ bouzouki virtuoso Sean Earnest. Raney is releasing her new album, “Here This is Home,â€? during a month-long tour across the U.S. This matinee performance begins at 3 p.m.; tickets cost $10 at the door. In the summer of 2013, Raney traveled to Dublin and VSHQW ÂżYH ZHHNV UHFRUGLQJ VRQJV ZLWK VRPH RI ,UHODQGÂśV ÂżQHVW musicians. “Here This is Homeâ€? is about her time in Ireland and time spent on the road. “I can be anywhere, in any car on any long highway, and still get a sense of home from these songs and tunes. They are our living legacy. And they are very much alive,â€? she says. Indeed, the Portland local has spent more of the last year on the road than in the place that she calls home, something she doesn’t complain about. “The last year of touring in various combinations has been both a challenge and a great joy, “ she says. “It has given me an enor-

mous amount of perspective on my career, on family, on music, and on the concept of home. In the manner of the great traveling musicians of earlier eras, you learn that home is less a physical place than a feeling.� This idea became the golden thread that weaves together the album. Dublin-born Johnny B. Connolly’s dexterity on the accordion earned him a place with the established Celtic ensemble Anam at the tender age of 17. In 1996 Connolly came to America, and in 2001 he released two well-received albums. Bouzouki and guitar player Sean Earnest’s sensitive yet eclectic musical stylings have taken him far from his native central Pennsylvania. He is among the most in-demand Celtic traditional music accompanists today and can be heard on stages all over the U.S. Most recently, Earnest has been playing with his band, The Yanks, who toured nationally in support of their debut album. The Hoffman Center is located at 594 Laneda Ave. in Manzanita. Doors open at 2:30 p.m. for the concert.

modern environmental movement. It also illustrates his vision of a community that cares about people and land continues to inform and inspire people around the world, highlighting modern projects that put Leopold’s land ethic in action. Seaside Pubic Library is located at 1131 Broadway. For more information call 503738-6742 or visit www.seasidelibrary.org Where were you born? I was born in Medford, raised in Portland and have lived in Washington, D.C.; Chicago; Tirana, Albania; and on Vancouver Island, B.C. Lives now: North of Long Beach, Wash. What art mediums do you work in and where do you show your art? I’m fascinated with printmaking (monotypes), but I occasionally paint. I’m a founding member of Tempo Gallery, and my monotypes are shown there. I’m also a member of the North Coast Printmakers Collective; we will have a group show at RiverSea Gallery in January. What sparked your interest in art and how did you become an artist? I became fascinated with photo pixels in 2009 and created a collage portrait of small bits of paper (like pixels) that won “Best in Show� at the Peninsula Arts Association show. That was all the encouragement I needed. I then began taking art classes at Clatsop Community College. What do you strive to portray in your works? My monotypes represent the water around us (shorelines) and within the human body. I feel a mystical connection to water that drives me to incorporate it in my artwork. Why are you drawn to printmaking? I like surprises, and the

Seaside Public Library will screen “Green Fire,� a documentary about conservationist Aldo Leopold. Submitted photo

printing process I use creates unexpected forms. Printmaking is very flexible and encourages experimentation. With basic instruction it’s possible to make beautiful monotypes with things you find at home, and, with more instruction and equipment, endless creative possibilities open up from woodblock printing to lithography. What’s a good book you’ve recently read? I just finished an audio book on Catherine the Great – I listen to audio books in my studio. She was a visionary leader and a fascinating woman. You’re a former board member of the Peninsula Arts Association. What was working with that group like? I think it’s important to give back to the community, and it’s great to work with dedicated, like-minded people to develop arts activities such as arts education in the schools and exhibition opportunities. Describe an art piece you’re really proud of. “Evolutionary Woman� is my breakthrough monotype using a new printmaking process I developed. The human form is broken up into small organic shapes so that the perceived tension between the pieces draws them together to create organs, bones and skin as if a body is being created from primordial soup.
