Curtain rises on WMass summer theater offerings By Keith O’Connor
Special to The Republican
The curtain rises on the best of American theater this summer in Western Massachusetts from the Berkshires to closer to home in Amherst, where big name Hollywood stars and other talented thespians gather to bring audiences everything under the sun from Broadway musicals to popular classics, newer plays, and even world premieres. There are also plenty of opportunities to introduce younger audiences to the wonders of the performing arts with several children’s theater performances, as well as classes and workshops for them to discover the actor

SUMMER GUIDE
Tanglewood, more awaits classical music lovers By Clifton Noble Jr.
Special to The Republican
Summer is synonymous with Tanglewood for classical music lovers, and with good reason. Between the Boston Symphony Orchestra, Boston Pops, guest chamber artists, and the student fellows of the Tanglewood Music Center, music for every taste can be enjoyed. But it is only one of many options for those of us fortunate enough to live amid the wealth of musical wonder that is Western Massachusetts. In fact, it might be safe to say that on any given day, a listener in search of a concert could be satisfied by a short drive and a moderate outlay of cash. For instance, on Saturday at 7 p.m. and Sunday at 2 p.m., Historic North Hall in Huntington (northhallhuntington.org) offers its annual Opera Showcase, an array of favorite arias performed by a professional operatic ensemble with piano accompaniment for $15 at the door. More opera is on the menu for $35 at 7:30 p.m. on July 13 at The White Church in Blandford, (summerconcerts@thewhitechurch.org) as Eve Queler accompanies an
ensemble of operatic professionals in a series of highlights. 2019 is the 25th year this event has taken place. For those wanting a larger view, Andris Nelsons conducts the Tanglewood Music Center Orchestra and soloists Amber Wagner (Sieglinde), Simon O’Neill (Siegmund), Christine Goerke (Brunnhilde), James Rutherford (Wotan), Stephanie Blythe (Fricka), and Franz-Josef Selig (Hunding) in a concert performance of Richard Wagner’s “Die Walkuere.� Act I is presented on July 27 at 8 p.m., and Acts II and III are scheduled for 2:30 and 6:30 p.m. respectively on July 29, all in the Koussevitzky Music Shed. Tickets from $57 (lawn) to $1,892 (Section 1) each may be obtained from the Tanglewood box office, bso.org.
dolore,� in addition to Bach’s Fourth Brandenburg Concerto, Pachelbel’s “Canon and Gigue,� and Heitor Villa-Lobos’ “Bachianas Brasilieras No. 5.� In South Worthington at the Academy (on the corner of Ireland St. and Route 112) on Sundays from July 14 through Aug. 18 at 4 p.m., Sevenars Concerts offer a wide variety of music centering on piano, but stretching out to piano quartet and jazz trio. Of particular interest this summer are two solo recitals. On August Keith Lockhart conducts The Boston Pops at Koussevitzky Mu- 4, Springfield native George sic Shed at Tanglewood in Lenox.

Summer Vacation Summer can fly by. Because summer can sometimes seem to come and go in a flash, it’s important for everyone to make the most of this relaxing time of year. Vacations from work and school are great ways to make summer memories, and the following are some ways to get even more out of these relaxing breaks from the norm. • Disconnect for a few days. Truly disconnect from electronic devices for a period of time to give yourself a mental break. Stop answering work emails, avoid social media and turn off reminders of things that do not need your attention while you are on vacation or taking a break. • Book a trip. It’s not the destination but the opportunity to step away from the norm that can help make a person feel like he or she has truly gotten a break. Get away from your surroundings, if only for a weekend. Nearby resorts and water parks are great for short jaunts with the kids.
•
Take a week off just to relax. Sometimes a person needs to recharge after going on vacation, as planning a trip and then the trip itself can require a lot of work. Staycations or devoting another week to just lounging around or catching up on tasks around the house can ease pressure. Then it’s possible to go back to work or school feeling even more recharged.
• Get out of the house or office. What’s the good of sunny skies and hot temperatures if you do not get to enjoy them? Make it a point to spend time outdoors every day. Go for a midday walk, sit in the park after work lets out or throw the ball around with the kids in the backyard. Sunlight can be great for the mind and body. Doctors with the Heliotherapy, Light, and Skin Research Center at Boston University Medical Center say sunlight triggers the release of serotonin and other hormones associated with a good mood. Increased exposure to sunlight also can regulate circadian rhythms for better sleep. Sunlight can trigger the release of nitric oxide into blood vessels, helping to lower blood pressure.
•
Explore summer programs. Adults and children can try new skills and explore different talents this summer. Sign up for a camp or a class that runs several weeks. This will help stimulate the mind.
• Visit friends and family. Now that schedules have loosened up, take the opportunity to increase time spent with friends or family members, whether they live close by or far away. Make it a point to reconnect with someone who has been out of touch. Summer is a great time of year to take vacations and reconnect with nature and loved ones.

“I am thrilled to announce the wide range of artists we will bring to Jacob’s Pillow,” Jacob’s Pillow Director Pamela Tatge said. “Festival 2019 celebrates important milestones and commemorates the creative reach of trailblazing visionaries whose journeys are deeply rooted in Pillow history.” Among those trailblazers will be performances by some of the country’s most popular and well-respected dance companies, including Mark Morris Dance Group, Paul Taylor Dance Company, Martha Graham Dance Company and Boston Ballet. But the Pillow, as the festival’s affectionately known, also remains committed to pushing the boundaries of modern dance and continuing the development of the art form. Highlights at this summer festival, which starts June 19 and runs through Aug. 25, include a new piece featuring world-renowned dancer Wendy Whelan and a program featuring New York City Ballet principal dancer Sara Mearns. Many of the new works at the Pillow were also developed at the Pillow. “As we continue

DETECTIVE PIKACHU rtss (PG) A neutered Ryan Reynolds tries hard but can’t make this live action-meets-animated movie gel. It’s plodding and listless and really not funny or smart enough. Live-action feature film adaptations of video games have proved a dicey proposition in the past. For every “Mortal Kombat” there’s a “Prince of Persia.” This one just feels like a venal money grab from a mega corporation. (104 min.)

A jaded 14-year-old Philadelphia foster kid, Billy Batson (Asher Angel), is bestowed with superpowers. As Shazam, he’s physically altered into an adult and takes the form of Zachary Levi. But of course, even with his height, his muscles, his voice and even his powers, he’s still very much a kid and has a lot to learn. (132 min.) US rrrs (R) Upon returning to their vacation home after a day at the beach, the Wilson family discovers the silhouette of four figures holding hands as they stand in the driveway. “Us” pits an endearing American family against a terrifying and uncanny opponent: Doppelgängers of themselves.

Naturally, Tanglewood offers an extensive array of chamber music possibilities. Along with the usual component of recitals with solo instrument and piano and ensembles of various sizes, there are a few daring completely solo recitals on the docket. Center faculty and fellows, including masterclasses, rehearsals, performances, and dinner conversation dealing with the string quartet literature, both classic and contemporary. For more information on the Tanglewood Learning Institute, visit tli.org. The student fellows of the Tanglewood Music Center deserve and receive a great deal of publicity and many public accolades. There are numerous other summer programs that offer top-notch training to young musicians and provide many wonderful concert opportunities to music-loving patrons throughout the Pioneer Valley. One such is the Lyra Music Festival and Workshop, held at Smith College in Northampton from July 7-27. The workshop is a conservatory-style training ground for dedicated young instrumentalists, guided by distinguished professional teachers and coaches. The schedule includes a host of possible concerts and masterclasses to attend, for anything from $10 or $15 per event to a $100 Festival Pass that covers all 2019 Lyra Music Festival Events. The students perform several concerts at local museums and assisted living communities as well as a culminating Student Gala in Sage Hall on July 27 at 1 p.m. For more information, visit lyramusic.org. To the west on an 80-acre wooded estate in the Cummington Hills, lies Greenwood Music Camp. Founded in 1933 by Dorothy (Bunny) Fay Little, Dwight Little, and Ruth Hill McGregor, Greenwood Music Camp was a pioneer and model for many other music programs. Its founders believed that a life that combined the profound sharing and group-level interaction of the chamber music experience with a supportive, family-like daily life, would lead to extraordinary musical and social
growth. Concert pianist Gilbert Kalish is a Greenwood Alum, parent, and grandparent. “Greenwood clearly changed my life,” Kalish wrote, “directed me towards my ultimate goals and provided me a foundation for my musical life. And it has given a ‘present’ to my three wonderful children of the joys of music.” Generous concerts for family and friends occur at 7:30 p.m. every Saturday evening,

Tickets for the Glanert (along with Tchaikovsky’s “Hamlet Overture” and Shostakovich’s “Symphony No. 1”) may be obtained at bso.org for $13-$57. Tickets for the Gruber (along with Beethoven’s “Symphony No. 4” and the “Dance of the Seven” Veils from Richard Strauss’s Salome) are $22$104. Another fascinating addition to Tanglewood’s many offerings is the brand new Tanglewood Learning Institute. Announced in February this year, the institute introduces dynamic, leading-edge programs connecting patrons with musicians, artists, students, academics, and cultural leaders. For example, “The Big Idea” presents thinkers and luminaries like Madeleine K. Albright, Doris Kearns Goodwin, and Daniel Shapiro to discuss broad cultural topics connected to the current programming. Albright’s talk is tied to the BSO’s Verdi “Requiem” concert on July 13, and will deal with nation-building. Goodwin will discuss leadership in America against the backdrop of Wagner’s “Die Walkuere,” (July 27 & 28) with its multigenerational saga of power and love. Tanglewood Learning Institute Open Studio offers TLI participants front-row seats as Tanglewood Music Center fellows hone their craft with the guidance of top-flight professionals in their field, including Renee Fleming, Andris Nelsons, Emanuel Ax, and Yo-Yo Ma.

Along with the usual component of recitals with solo instrument and piano and ensembles of various sizes, there are a few daring completely solo recitals on the docket. On July 10 at 8 p.m. in Ozawa Hall, violinist Hilary Hahn plays three solo violin sonatas by J. S. Bach, those in A minor (BWV 1003), E (BWV 1006), and C (BWV 1005) respectively. On July 16 at 8 p.m. at Ozawa Hall, Milos Karadaglic, called by the UK Sunday Times “The hottest guitarist in the world – The king of Aranjuez,” offers a recital including Bach, Granados, Albeniz, Villa-Lobos, and Duplessy, along with three arrangements of Beatles songs (“Blackbird,” “Yesterday,” and “While My Guitar Gently Weeps”) by guitarist Sergio Assad. Tickets for Milos ($19-$58) and Hilary Hahn ($22-$78) may be obtained online at bso.org. As noted, there is a lot of music written centuries ago to be re-enjoyed in current interpretations all over the Berkshires.

Fran Bellamy | Restaurant Review
Avellino respects tradition, but has passion for experimentation
T
ODAY’S FINE-DINing Italian restaurant websites seem incomplete without a written tale of a budding chef ’s childhood spent in Italy at the elbow of a nonna learning to cook according to centuries-old traditions. On Avellino’s website Chef Enrico Giovanello’s story begins when he can barely reach the stove and is replete with the sounds and smells of ingredients that feed his nostalgia for the traditions of Italy. And although these poetic tales don’t always translate into exceptional food; such is not the case at Avellino where Italian food is adeptly executed with both a nod to tradition and a passion for experimentation. Avellino shares both space and ownership with its sister
restaurant, The Duck, in the famous Whistling Swan building on Main Street in Sturbridge. Since renovations by the Table 3 Restaurant Group concluded in 2012, the two restaurants have cohabited comfortably in the building named after the original eatery it housed. We were early for our reservation but were immediately shown to a cozy corner table in the front dining room of the restaurant; which consists of multiple rooms and includes a chef ’s table for up to eight adjacent to the open kitchen. Our server greeted us immediately with water and a focaccia plate including an oil for dipping and a ramekin of grated Parmigiano Reggiano cheese. We were made to feel very much at home from the start, and were provided with
timely service and helpful advice throughout our meal. Appetizers at Avellino reflect the rest of the menu in that they run the gamut from traditional Italian to more experimental options, so we set out to select one of each. It was hard to pass up the Antipasto ($11 or $17 options) and the Mussels Fra Diavolo ($12); but we opted instead to sample the red sauce and technique in Grandma Gita’s Meatballs ($8). On the more experimental side there was no passing up the Sicilian Calamari ($10), but we were almost equally tempted by Basil Gorgonzola Bread ($9) and Baked Burrata Caprese ($12); the latter an interesting sounding riff on Insalata Caprese. The meatballs were the first sign of the ample portion sizes
at Avellino, with three baseball-sized balls that were the tender, and of the three-meat variety. Doused with savory marinara and topped with good mozzarella, it proved a commendable rendition of a dish that has cropped up in the appetizer section of many a restaurant, Italian or otherwise. As good as the meatballs were, they were far out shadowed by the interesting squid dish. Calamari in both ring and tentacle form, free-form pieces of well-spiced Italian sausage, capers, and olives all shared space in a complex broth laced with tomato and subtle hints of saffron. The wedge of lemon when squeezed onto the hearty dish served to brighten and perfectly balance it, as did the generous sprinkling of

May is the month for asparagus lovers
M
AY IS ASPARAGUS month in western New England, with tender green shoots of that popular vegetable poking their heads up into the springtime sunshine. Though best known as a Hadley product, asparagus was once grown all across the Pioneer Valley. I, for instance, have childhood memories of foraging for tender spears in an abandoned and overgrowth asparagus patch in Hampden. Formerly considered a luxury crop, harvested for only a few weeks each spring, asparagus has become, thanks to cheap imports from Mexico and South America, a commodity vegetable. With yearround availability, it’s now a “go-to” option for restaurant menu planners. Locally-produced asparagus has had a hard time competing with the raised-elsewhere varieties, given that asparagus
is a labor-intensive crop to grow. However, like other vegetables, asparagus loses flavor and sweetness once harvested. Enjoyed the day it’s cut, local “grass” has a delicacy and subtle sweetness that’s missing from the shipped-in stuff. Each year WGBY, Public Television for Western New England, celebrates the tradition of locally-grown asparagus with its annual Asparagus Festival. Planned this year for June 1, the festival will be held on Hadley’s West Street Common and will celebrate all things local and agricultural. Over 100 farmers, vendors, and crafters will be displaying their wares, and an assortment of food tastings, culinary demonstrations, and book signings have been organized. A highlight of the Asparagus Festival is the WGBY Chef ’s Spearit Luncheon, a multicourse extravaganza featuring asparagus-themed dishes pre-

The house made gnocchi were less pillowy than some we’d had, but the al dente texture held up to the rich white wine cream sauce that most Americans would label Alfredo. The variety of fresh tomatoes in the bruschetta nestled in the center — varying in color, size and texture — was impressive for winter in New England. Their acidity and generous tossing with fresh garlic were a nice counterpoint to the creamy sauce. Avellino’s version of Piccata strayed from authentic only in its accompaniments, as the flavor was a perfect rendition of the light, white wine, lemon and caper laced sauce. The chicken was so subtly dusted with flour that at first glance we thought them to be poached, but then experienced the subtle texture and nuttiness of the flour. The large

A week in Provence, Part V Editor’s note: This is the fifth in a series of five stories about wineries in Provence, France visited by the author. CHATEAU BEAULIEU (Rognes, France) HE CHATEAU AT the end of the long, winding, gravel driveway looks like something straight out of “Downton Abbey.” Impressive stone building. Perfectly manicured lawn. Large fountain in front. Inside, Chateau Beaulieu looks even more opulent. Stone fireplaces. Chandeliers. Antique wooden furniture. Museum-quality art. No wonder people travel halfway around the world to stay at this chateau, which
T
serves as a small, boutique hotel. There’s no reception desk or front lobby. Instead, you feel like you’re staying in someone’s lavish country house for the weekend. You also feel like you have stepped back in time a century or two in this chateau fit for a duke or a duchess. But don’t let Chateau Beaulieu’s luxurious surroundings distract you from the main attraction — its outstanding array of delicious wines. After touring the chateau and the grounds, we visit the chateau’s cellars and taste five different wines made with grapes grown at the 345-acre winery, one of the largest wineries in the Coteaux d’Aix en Provence.
TASTING NOTES 2017 Chateau Beaulieu Rose (Strongly Recommend): Soft, subtle, peach flavors abound in this flinty, mineral-rich wine. There’s absolutely no bite to this elegant, understated rose wine. 2014 Villa Beaulieu Cuvee Berengere White: Subtle, oaky aromas greet you before you even take your first sip of this light, bright white wine. Its predominant flavors are citrus like, especially orange, lemon and a hint of grapefruit. 2014 Villa Beaulieu White: Another crisp, bright white wine with oaky aromas and bright, zesty citrus flavors, particularly grapefruit with just a hint of lemon in this refreshing, summer white wine.
2015 Villa Beaulieu Cuvee Berengere Red (Strongly Recommend): Bright, youthful fruit flavors (particularly raspberry and blackberry) make this clean, dry red wine with a soft finish emerge straight out of the bottle. A few minutes later, this lively fruit flavors become more muted and understated. Give this wine 3 to 5 years in the cellar to mature. A real gem. 2014 Villa Beaulieu Red (Highly Recommend): My favorite wine of the tasting, this soft yet big red wine has a graceful finish that last at least 30 seconds after each taste. Understated fruit flavors (cherry, raspberry) linger after each sip. An outstanding wine you can enjoy now and over Celebrati Over 40 Y ng EARS!

the next 3 to 5 years or so. What a pleasure. CHATEAU LA COSTE (Le Puy Sainte Reparade, France) Looking for a futuristic art museum designed by a world-renowned architect? Or perhaps you’re a food-obsessed traveler in search of a unique, destination meal? Or maybe you simply want a top-notch hotel in a stunning location? Or maybe you just want to try some great, French wine? In this small, remote town nestled in the rolling hills in Provence, you can find all of these things at Chateau La Coste, a winery-art museum-restaurant-hotel. World-renowned Japanese architect Tadao Ando designed the winery’s art center. He’s the same architect who created the sleek, minimalist addition at The Clark museum in Williamstown, Massachusetts. At the winery in France, you can see echoes of Ando’s work in Massachusetts. A large reflecting pool runs alongside sleek, elegant concrete walls that blend in perfectly with the surrounding landscape. Architect Frank Gehry also designed a music pavilion on the grounds of the 540-acre winery, which includes more than 300 acres of vineyards. Although it’s hard to tell there’s even a winery here. The vines are barely visible amidst the rolling hills and sculptures scattered throughout the grounds, including one of Louise Bourgeois’ famous, stunning sculptures of a giant spider. Other noteworthy sculptures on the grounds include a piece of artist Andy Goldsworthy. There are also SEE WINE, PAGE E24

L
ET’S FACE IT, FOR A very long time, brewing has been dominated by men, usually white
men. Fortunately, that has been changing to be more inclusive, which means that more ideas and creativity are being brought to the table under a bigger (beer) tent.

Six regional events across the country – including one right here in Massachusetts – will receive support for inclusivity programming.

Set in an open-air setting with the chefs in plain view, the meal at Restaurant Francis Mallmann was outstanding, particularly the ribeye steak cooked to perfection.

it’s easy to see why artist Paul Cezanne lived and worked in this city, which once served as the capital of Provence. (If you have time, make sure to make time to spend an hour or so in Cezanne’s studio, which looks
exactly the way he left it when it died in 1906.) Not far from the city, from certain higher places on the eastern part of Aix-EnProvence, you can see Mont Sainte-Victoire rising in the
distance. Cezanne often painted this small but dramatic mountain. In the city, you can find hundreds of bars, restaurants and stores scattered throughout the downtown area. Shortly after the sun sets, I’m having dinner in a Japanese restaurant with Jeremie Peckre, Managing Director of Chateau Paradis winery. Peckre talks with pride about his wines, which we taste throughout the meal. “We have a lot of freshness and we try to express it in the wine,” Peckre says. Later that night, Peckre will be harvesting the winery’s grapes that night. The plan for that night is for 25 people, including Peckre, to finish harvesting the winery’s rose grapes. “We try to have a big team to go quick,” Peckre says. “If you have good fruit, you have good wine,” he adds.

tle, this wine’s perfect on its own or with a hearty, Provencal meal. 2017 Chateau Du Seuil Rose Coteaux D’Aix En Provence: Complicated wine with hints of melon and melted better, this wine needs more time in the cellar to reach its peak potential. 2017 Chateau Du Seuil Grand Seuil Rose (Highly Recommend): Outstanding, fragrant, lively rose wine with hints of soft melon on the nose and palate. Really love the way this wine comes to life straight out of the bottle and its subtle, understated finish. Highly recommend. 2017 Chateau Du Seuil Cuvee Speciale Rose (Highly Recommend): Even more refined and elegant than the previous rose, another stunning example of what winemakers in Provence can do when it comes to the region’s signature wine. Smooth, lively, bright and refreshing. 2017 Chateau Du Seuil White (Strongly Recommend): Soft, ripe melon and grapefruit flavors and aromas abound in this beautiful, subtle white wine. Has a slightly flinty finish as well, which I absolutely adore. 2015 Chateau Du Seuil Grand Seuil White (Highly Recommend): Aged for five months in oak barrels, this delightful, earthy white wine has a full, robust finish with hints of mist and fog often associated with many great white wines in southern Burgundy. Terrific food wine or great on its own. 2016 Chateau Du Seuil Red: Young wine that still needs a good 3 to 5 years to age in cellar. This wine will smooth out if you decant it, but frankly, I would set it aside and enjoy some of the winery’s other great wines ready to drink now. 2013 Chateau Du Seuil Red (Highly Recommend): This wine proves why it’s better to wait to drink the winery’s red wines. Velvety smooth with a soft, round, raspberry-like finish, this sumptuous wine has flavors that linger nearly

understated white wine that reminds me of a toned down version of a grassy, New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc. Really refreshing, lively wine with a bright, clean finish that perfectly compliments many foods. 2015 Chateau Paradis Red (Highly Recommend): “This is a very dry, Provencal style red wine,” Peckre says. “It has structure. You have to age it. It’s very strict.” Spot on description of this big, robust, flinty, mineral-like, intense red wine. Very good the night we taste it. Even better I suspect in 3 to 5 years. A real show stopper. Superb.
2015 Chateau Paradis Red Terre Des Argus (Highly Recommend): Another outstanding age-worthy red wine, give this wine another 10 to 15 years in the cellar to fully blossom. The night we taste it, the wine’s vibrant and fruity and yet austere and flinty at the same time. An absolutely wonderful, complex wine to finish a fantastic week in Provence. Cheers!

The Porter-Phelps-Huntington House, known as Forty Acres, is an 18th-century farm on the banks of the Connecticut River that today interprets life in rural New England over three centuries. Through the words, spaces and possessions of the women and men who lived here, the museum portrays the activities of a prosperous and productive 18th-century farmstead. Members of this household along with numerous artisans, servants and slaves made "Forty Acres" an important social and commercial link in local, regional and national cultural and economic networks. Through the 19th century the generations transformed the estate into a rural retreat. In the 20th-century the house was preserved as a museum by family members and now contains the possessions of six generations of this extended family. 130 River Drive, Hadley or pphmuseum.org.
