A scene in Morgan Neville's highly acclaimed new documentary, Won't You Be My Neighbor?

Sweater with a soul Won’t You Be My Neighbor? will make you miss Mister Rogers

M

ister Rogers’ Neighborhood wasn’t a part of my childhood – I was already a teenager when it first aired nationally in 1968 – nor my son’s, as we didn’t have TV at all when he was the appropriate age for the show.

I always went on the assumption that, had Fred Rogers been around when I was a precocious and prematurely cynical preschooler, I would have found his very gentleness of manner a little condescending, “babyish.� Knowing that he existed in a parallel universe to an onscreen world of violent cartoons was comforting on some level, I suppose. But on the odd occasions when I would be exposed to the show for a minute or two as an adult, I found myself bemused and a little put off. Silly me.

Won’t You Be My Neighbor? the new documentary by Oscar-winning 20 Feet from Stardom director Morgan Neville, goes a long way toward showing me how wrong I was, and how much my

family missed. Yes, Fred Rogers was very “whitebread,� a Presbyterian minister and a lifelong Republican who insisted that a key cast member who happened to be gay stay closeted. But he was also a humanist, a developmental psychologist of the Benjamin Spock/Erik Erikson/Margaret McFarland school, a fierce advocate for generous government funding of public broadcasting, a formidable jazz pianist.

And his show, while constantly reinforcing messages that helped children feel secure and loved and valuable, was anything but “safe.� Some of its veteran performers and other Rogers associates choose the word “radical� to characterize the guy – in a most admiring way. From an early program that helped kids deal with the news of the assassination of Robert F. Kennedy to a post-retirement appearance addressing the horrors of 9/11, Rogers didn’t shy away

from the difficulties of growing up in a scary world. Mister Rogers’ Neighborhood devoted whole weeks of programming to subjects like death and divorce. In his understatedly subversive way, he countered the horrors of racism, such as segregated swimming pools, by inviting the neighborhood’s black police officer to join him in soaking his feet in a kiddie pool on a hot day. Negative feelings like anger were not glossed over, but Rogers made sure to model constructive ways of channeling them (attacking a piano keyboard with gusto was his own favored method).

Even the inhabitants of the Neighborhood of Make-Believe were not

sheltered from bad things happening.

Won’t You Be My Neighbor? makes it clear that the rather shabby, insecure puppet called Daniel Stripèd Tiger was Rogers’ favored vehicle for processing his lingering self-doubts as a survivor of childhood bullying. In eerily prescient footage from the show’s very first week on National Educational Television, we see the character King Friday XIII ranting about how much he hates change, and ordering the construction of a big wall to keep out undesirables. In the show’s latter years, Rogers – a conservative in the old-

fashioned sense of the word – took a lot of flak from neocons for his relentlessly encouraging messages to children; they accused him of making kids feel “entitled” and “special” without having earned such a sense of self-worth.

One needs visual exposure to Fred Rogers’ interaction with other people – children especially – to understand fully how wrongheaded such criticism is. When he talked to people, it was a one-on-one transaction, with full engagement and respect. He made intense eye contact. He knew how to listen, how to mirror, knew when it was best not to say anything in response, making space for the child to volunteer more. If only contemporary adults still had him as a parenting role model, our fractured, fractious society might become a happier place.

While the interviewees in Won’t You Be My Neighbor? share some of his less saintly side, including a capacity for practical jokery, they concur that the kind, earnest guy we saw onscreen was the real, consistent Fred Rogers. He “got” children, and children – especially his target audience of preschoolers – “got” him. So palpable was the sense of mutual trust that his persona fostered that even Koko, the gorilla who famously learned sign language (and died last month), immediately welcomed Rogers into her space with hugs and a signed “I love you.”

It’s one of the most moving scenes in the movie, and there are other bits likely to inspire viewers to reach for a hanky as well.

In a time in America when neighborliness often appears to be a quaint, retro sort of human value, Won’t You Be My Neighbor? is a timely reminder that things don’t have to go on that way.

Maybe we need to rebrand it these days as a sense of community and commonality,

DION OGUST | ALMANAC WEEKLY

The audience follows the performers around Opus 40 during the "Scottish play,’’ and the scenes take on different auras as they move through different parts of Harvey Fite’s sculpture.

STAGE

SITE-SPECIFIC MAKBET AT OPUS 40 THIS SATURDAY IN SAUGERTIES

I

s it safe for actors not to resort to calling Shakespeare’s grimmest tragedy the “Scottish play” if they’re speaking Polish? It would seem so, considering that Makbet is returning to Opus 40 this weekend for the second summer running, and the Dzieci Theater Company cast seems to have survived.

Based in Brooklyn, Dzieci characterizes itself as “an international experimental theater ensemble…dedicated to a search for the ‘sacred’ through the medium of theater.” Equally committed to both performance and service, Dzieci regularly acts in hospitals and a variety of institutional settings, believing that “helping others generates a profound healing effect that not only serves the patient, but also strengthens the ensemble’s work.”

Part of the troupe’s approach to theater-as-ritual is a fondness for developing site-specific staging for the plays in its repertoire.

This production of Makbet will use the complex and many-layered beauty of Harvey Fite’s world-renowned sculpture to enhance the power of Shakespeare’s drama of love, ambition, betrayal and the supernatural. The audience actually follows the performers around Opus 40, and the scenes take on different auras as they move through different parts of the sculpture.

Matt Mitler, Dzieci’s founder, says, “Dzieci has presented our Gypsy-infused take on Macbeth in countless alternative spaces, from cemeteries to shipping containers, but no location has had the sweep and monumental impact that Opus 40 does.”

Wherever it’s staged, this Makbet crosses conventional gender boundaries in its casting. It also incorporates Eastern European folk music and chants, with their often-otherworldly harmonics, into the performances.

The Dzieci Theater Company will perform Makbet on Saturday, July 7 at 6 p.m. at Opus 40, located at 50 Fite Road in High Woods, on the western frontier of Saugerties. Tickets cost $15 in advance, $20 at the gate.

This well-loved outdoor concert venue will double down on its newer identity as a theater space at 1 p.m. on Sunday, July 29, when the Centenary Stage Company presents a 50th-anniversary celebration of the “tribal love/rock musical” Hair. For reservations and more info on both shows, call (845) 246-3400 or visit www.opus40.org.

Streb performs Singular Extreme Actions (SEA) at Lumberyard in Catskill

Singular Extreme Actions (SEA), a gravity-defying performance by the Brooklyn-based company known as Streb, will take place outdoors this weekend at Catskill’s new Lumberyard site.

As previously reported in Almanac Weekly, the incipient Lumberyard Contemporary Performing Arts venue is hosting its inaugural season at various venues in Catskill and Hudson, without benefit of a completed performance hall, via what it’s calling the Under Construction Summer Festival.

The next presentation takes place this weekend outdoors on the Lumberyard site: Singular Extreme Actions (SEA), a gravity-defying performance by the Brooklyn-based company known as

the Streb Lab for Action Mechanics, a/k/a SLAM or just Streb.

Founded by Elizabeth Streb, an innovative choreographer who made waves by incorporating trapeze skills into modern dance, the Streb company is as likely to perform its “Extreme Actions” on the streets and in sports stadiums as in theaters and art museums. SEA is described as “a wild kaleidoscope of Action Events and music; human bodies careening through, around, and above invented hardware accompanied by local

guest deejays and Streb’s resident deejay and emcee.”

Performances of SEA will begin at 8 p.m. on Friday, July 6, at 7 p.m. on Saturday, July 7 and at 3 p.m. on Sunday, July 8.

Tickets for this family-friendly movement extravaganza cost $30.

Then, on Saturday, July 14, the Lumberyard will host a “night under the stars” featuring light bites from Ca’Mea Restaurant, beverages from local Hudson breweries and Truck: a movement performance inside a 17-foot

T. S. ELIOT’S MODERNIST POETRY MASTERPIECE, THE FOUR QUARTETS, REIMAGINED AT BARD

T

he Fisher Center’s Sosnoff Theater hosts the world premiere of Four Quartets, a new interdisciplinary dance commission from choreographer Pam Tanowitz, Finnish composer Kaija Saariaho and painter Brice Marden. Four Quartets is the first authorized dance performance ever to be based on T. S. Eliot’s career-crowning masterpiece of the same title.

Pam Tanowitz has been recognized by The New York Times as “one of the most formally brilliant choreographers around,” with honors including a Bessie Award, a Guggenheim Fellowship and the 2017 Cage Cunningham Fellowship. Grammy Awardwinning Finnish composer Kaija Saariaho’s music has “given her audiences – and given late 20th- and early 21st-century music as a whole – some of the most luminous, beguiling and sheerly sensual experiences they can hope to have” (The Guardian).

American Modernist painter and Hudson Valley resident Brice Marden is “one of today’s leading artists” (The New York Times) and was the subject of a major retrospective at New York’s Museum of Modern Art. Four Quartets will be performed on the weekend of July 6 through 8. Friday and Saturday performances begin at 8 p.m.; the Sunday, July 8 performance begins at 3 p.m. Tickets cost $25. The Fisher Center is located on the campus of Bard College in Annandale-on-Hudson. For tickets and additional information, visit http://fishercenter.bard.edu.

In that remote setting, the narrator is further isolated by the cultured eccentricity of her family (told multigenerationally and exquisitely) and by the stigma associated with her father’s suicide (or return to his native oceanic home, depending on whom you ask). She is in a love with a damaged veteran of the first Iraq war, a fisherman named Jude who does not own his own

boat and thus lives a life virtually without prospects. In his own damaged way, Jude loves and idealizes the narrator, but finds his gratifications elsewhere.

A strange and lyrical mix of the gritty and mythic, The Seas is one of those novels that takes you in to a fully formed world with its own laws of language and perception and a decidedly blurred border between quotidian reality and…something else, a broader reality that pivots on linguistics and nature. It is tempting but naïve to think that visionary, singleeffect novels like The Seas occur to their authors with the same profound coherence and all-at-onceness in which they immerse the reader. “No,” says Hunt, “The Seas did not come to me as a fully formed vision. Does that really ever happen? Rather, it came after much reading, writing, working. I wrote The Seas over a number of years, between the

hours of 4 and 7 a.m., before heading off to my day job.”

With an anthropomorphized ocean as one of the novel’s most willful characters, The Seas is awash in water imagery and themes. “The Seas started with a question about the color blue,” Hunt recounts. “I wondered why so many states of blue are oxygen-free: the ocean, the atmosphere, the blood in our veins. The blueness of a young woman trying to find her identity in a small, narrow-minded, alcoholic, sexist seaside town that has already assigned incorrect language to her (slimy, slutty, sad) struck me as another blue place where it is hard to breathe. She thinks she is a mermaid, despite the presence of legs, because she’s brave. She takes hateful language and changes the meaning. People see that her father walked into the ocean and label it suicide. She sees that her father walked into the ocean, and she calls it mermaid.

“The Seas started as 250 short pieces, investigations into blue. I then spread them out on the floor, found the narrative in them and pieced them together. It’s a less daunting way to write a first novel.

Plus, the world in fragments makes sense to me.”

Serious, literary and short, Hunt’s debut novel was first published at the absolute height of a culturewide obsession with

ivoli resident Samantha Hunt caught the ear of the literary world with her first campaign: a striking novel called The Seas, originally published in 2004 and reissued now by Tin House Press with a new introduction by Maggie Nelson, author of The Argonauts. Among the many formidable ears Hunt caught were the pair belonging to novelist Dave Eggers, publisher and founder of the influential literary journal McSweeney’s.

The stunned Eggers declared Hunt’s “one of the most distinctive and unforgettable voices I have read in years,” and The Seas was off to the races, netting Samantha Hunt a National Book Foundation award for writers under the age of 35, clearing the path for a decorated career in serious fiction and the teaching of same (currently at Pratt Institute in New York City).

Hunt will celebrate the republication of The Seas with a reading and signing at Oblong Books & Music in Rhinebeck on Tuesday, July 10 at 6 p.m.

The narrator of The Seas is a young woman who believes herself to be a mermaid, and not without some cause; in its psychological dimension, the novel walks a fine line of ambiguity. She lives

NIGHT SKY

Planets on parade

L

ast week we reviewed the odd 2018 July Fourth spectacle of being able to see every naked-eye planet, no telescope needed. Let’s now go deeper and see how this brilliant parade will continue and even improve when Independence Day is over.

So, on July 4, or any evening as dusk is fading – meaning 9:15 to 9:30 p.m. – start by looking west, the direction of sunset. A super-bright star floats prominently. It’s the brightest “star” in the sky. It’s not very high, but it’s not super-low either. You can’t miss it. This is the Evening Star, Venus, our “sister planet.” It will be visible all summer long.

Its overcast clouds made of shiny drops of sulphuric acid, combined with its nearness to the Sun and decent size (the same diameter as Earth, more or less), are what make it so bright. That’s Planet Number One. Too easy.

Planet Number Two is the hardest, because it’s lowest. You gaze far to the lower right of Venus. Any star you see is Mercury. Nothing else is down there. But you need an unblocked view, low to the horizon. You’ll have it from all the malls of Kingston, or from Poets’ Walk near the Rhinecliff bridge. Mercury is only 1/60th as bright as Venus, so look for a bright star, but not something super-dazzling. Best time is around 9:15 p.m. Sweeping that region with binoculars makes it too easy. You don’t really need them.

Turn 90 degrees to the left from Venus and Mercury. Now you’re facing south, and staring toward the sky’s second-brightest “star.” This one’s easy, too. It’s Jupiter. Naked eye, binoculars, a small telescope: Jupiter will be nice in whatever you want to throw at it.

Now face the opposite part of the sky from Venus. The lowest, brightest star down that way, meaning the southeast, is Saturn. Another way to find Saturn is to look far leftward from Jupiter until you come across a bright orange star, which is the famous Antares, the alpha star of Scorpius. Then keep going further left to the only other star

All of the naked-eye planets will be visible between 9:15 p.m. and midnight all month long.

pop fantasy, magic and heroic myth. Does Hunt recognize any affinity between her psychological mapping of the intersection of the modern world, the outcast and the mythic dimension and those that captivated a generation of young readers and their disposable income?

“I don’t use the words ‘magic’ or ‘fantasy.’ I find them dismissive of realities that veer from the mainstream – i.e., most women’s and girls’ experiences of the world. I grow tired of hearing that the way I experience reality is not real.

Language is glorious, but language is also a tool of control. My narrator rejects ugly definitions of her life. So I don’t see my work as fantasy, no. I don’t use the word ‘magic.’ I prefer the word ‘science.’

There is much from science we don’t yet understand, but we don’t dismiss it as magic.

“I studied Geology as an undergrad, and read in one text – Waves and Beaches, by Williard Bascom – that there are hundreds of kinds of waves that don’t yet have names. That makes me laugh. The ocean doesn’t care what we call it!”

Lest the talk of mermaids and myth should create the impression that it is escapist, if not fantasy, The Seas is very much a novel of the modern world, and a grim one at that, documenting advanced states of socioeconomic decay and its attendant despair in acute and emotionally rich ways. “The Seas is based on a town I know very well where the fishing was failing, where alcoholism was rampant and where young men and women have very limited choices. So, Jude winds up fighting a war he doesn’t believe in. I never name the town, because I want a reader to be able to step fully into the book. Indeed, once at a reading in California, a reader told me that he knew the town where The Seas is set. ‘You do?’ I asked. ‘Yes,’ he said and named a town in Alaska, a state I’ve yet to visit. I was very happy to hear that.”

Watering 101 he current deficit of rainfall reminds me of the importance of watering – whether by hand, with a sprinkler or drip, drip, drip via drip irrigation – in greening up a thumb.

Not that watering is definitely called for here in the humid Northeast; historically, cultivated plants have gotten by mostly on natural rainfall. Historically, vegetable gardens also weren’t planted as intensely as they are these days. In one of my threefoot-wide beds, for example, Brussels sprouts plants at 18 inches apart are flanked on one side by a row of fully grown turnips and on the other side by

of similar brightness. Bingo: the whitish Saturn. It’s roughly the same brightness as Antares, and nothing else is bright in that part of the sky – the low eastern heavens.

Finally, starting around 11 p.m. and for the rest of the night, there’s a new, brilliant orange star down there in the east. It’s even brighter than Jupiter. From 11 p.m. until dawn begins, it’s the new “brightest star in all the heavens.” This is Mars, which won’t again be this bright until the year 2035. We’re still approaching Mars, at 66,000 miles per hour, so it is brightening and will reach its best on the final day of July.

There you have it: all of the naked-eye planets, between 9:15 p.m. and midnight all month long. Doesn’t happen very often. And you don’t need charts, maps, instruments or any sky knowledge. Just rip out this page and bring it outdoors the next clear night when you’ll be under the sky.

Why do this? Well, see for yourself why people through the ages got a strange, deep satisfaction from observing our companions in space, our fellow Sun orbiters: the “wanderers” that seem visually starlike, but forever change their positions in the heavens.

radishes. Five rows of onions run up and down another bed.

The rule of thumb I use for watering is that plants need the equivalent of one inch-depth of water once a week. This approximation doesn’t take into account the fact that my bed of sweet corn is thirstier than is my bed of onions, that my plants drew less water up from the soil during a recent calm, cloudy day than they will with today’s bright sunlight and breezes or that warmer temperatures speed water loss. Still, an inch a week is a good approximation – one very workable around here, where periodic rain allows some wiggle room in watering; not so in parts of California and similar climates that remain reliably bone-dry all summer.

A sprinkler, or a handheld hose with a spray rose for small areas, and some randomly placed straight-sided cans to catch water are an easy way to tell how long to leave the spigot on to get that inchdepth of water. Usually, about an hour,

once a week, is what it takes. (That’s a long time to stand still holding a hose.) Unless it rains; then less might be needed.

A rain gauge is an inexpensive way to know whether what seems like a soaking rain is really so. Or monitor soil moisture directly: Dig a hole, poke your finger into the soil or, even better, purchase a “moisture meter” for less than $15; plunge the metal probe a few inches into the ground and read on the dial whether the ground down there is “dry,” “moist” or “wet.” You want it moist.

My vegetable plants get their thirst quenched with drip irrigation rather than a sprinkler. The idea of a drip system is to drip water into the soil at

Plants need the equivalent of one inch-depth of water once a week. about the rate which plants are removing it. That doesn’t occur once a week, but every bright day, all day long.

That one-inch-per-week rate translates to about three-quarters of a gallon per square foot. My drip system is on a timer, and the time needed to apply this amount depends on the rate of flow from each emitter, as well as the spacing of emitters.

After a lot of calculations and approximations (many years ago), I determined that dripping for one halfhour per day would be about right. But, as I wrote, plants drink all day long, not just once a day. My drip timer can turn on and off at three specified times per day, so the plants get their thirst quenched three times spaced out during daylight hours at ten minutes per session. My old timer offered six sessions per day; then, plants got six waterings of ten minutes each.

Done. All I have to do is check every once in a while that all systems are go, which is one reason my drip lines run aboveground: I can watch the dripping.

I do have to get out the watering can for the lettuce seedlings – the third planting of the season – that are soon to be set out, as well as for the recently planted row of carrot seeds and other recent seedings and transplants. That’s supplemental watering until roots of new plants stretch down into the region of the drip line’s wetting front, which spreads with the shape of an ice cream cone downward beneath each spot of dripping water.

I’ll be leading a hands-on workshop on drip irrigation on August 18 at the garden of Margaret Roach in Copake Falls. For

EVENT

HOT-ROD HEAVEN Sawyer Motors Car Show in Saugerties this Sunday

E

ven if you’re not a motorhead, it’s always a sign of summertime having arrived when you suddenly see an unusual concentration of classic automobiles popping up on the local roads. That usually signifies that a car show is about to happen nearby, of course; and what’s called the Best Little Car Show in the Northeast is about to roll into Saugerties, for its 15th outing.

A lifelong car hobbyist, Bob Siracusano instituted the Sawyer Motors Car Show in 2004, and the annual event has been gaining momentum ever since. Since he’s a civic-minded guy, Siracusano doesn’t stage his show in a fairground or some big empty lot on the edge of nowhere. Early on, he persuaded town officials to shut down traffic through downtown Saugerties for the five-hour duration of the show – and now it’s a local tradition. Part of the deal is that local shops, bars and restaurants get all the tourist dollars generated by the show; no outside vendors are brought in. So it’s a community win/win.

For several blocks around the event’s epicenter at the intersection of Main and Partition Streets, more than 500 vehicles – hot rods, classics, antiques, muscle cars – will be parked along the curbside.

Scheduled performers this year include a Frankie Valli tribute band called Lights Out, regional classic-rock faves Hot Rod, the highly regarded Paul Luke Band, the Oldies Show, Roadhouse, the Greyhounds and Cherished Memories. There will be kids’ activities as well.

It all goes on from 1 to 6 p.m. on Sunday, July 8. But you’ll probably want to arrive early – partly to find a place to park outside the closed-off streets, and partly to enjoy the procession of fabulous flivvers as they roll up to take their places. Fifty trophies will be handed out by the end of the afternoon.

If you’ve got a car that you want to show off, you can register it online at www.sawyermotorscarshow.com. Fees range from $25 to $100 per vehicle, and all proceeds get donated to a local charitable cause – a different one each year. Spectators get in free. To learn more, call (845) 246-3412.

er hoses.” Although the water oozes out from these porous hoses, they are not really “drip irrigation.” Sure, the water just oozes out slowly. But they’re inconsistent in output – not only with water pressure and elevation, but also with time. And roots can grow inside buried soaker hoses, further muddying the water.

A real drip line has water emitters spaced six to 12 inches apart along their length, and those emitters aren’t mere holes punched in tubing. They are engineered orifices, designed to be relatively consistent in output with changes in incoming water pressure and changes in elevation along the line. They also are self-cleaning, in case debris gets into the line.

EXPLO∏E Flight sight Hot-Air Balloon Festival at the Dutchess County Fairgrounds in Rhinebeck

T

he passage overhead of a hot-air balloon (or many) has got to be among the most enticing photo ops ever. They’re brightly colored. They move slowly, so it’s easy to capture images of their stately progress. And they’re not launched in dicey weather conditions, so a ballooning day is always a great day to be outside, snapping away.

Hot-air balloon festivals are of course the best chances to catch glimpses of these majestic conveyances, and our best annual local opportunity comes up the weekend of July 6 through 8. Scattered in years past over many locations, the 2018 Hudson Valley Hot-Air Balloon Festival will be concentrated in one spot: the Dutchess County Fairgrounds in Rhinebeck.

This 27th annual gathering of balloonists and vendors from all over the country is expected to draw tens of thousands of visitors, but the Fairgrounds are a large enough venue to welcome them all comfortably. When nearly everyone is looking up at the sky, being part of a crowd isn’t a daunting problem. But there will be plenty to do on the ground as well, with appealing activities for the entire family.

Each year, this Festival schedules about 100 balloon launches. They’re typically clustered in the very early morning, before the sun is high, when the air near the ground is cool and winds haven’t yet had a chance to gather strength.

Thermodynamic conditions often become friendly again toward nightfall, so if you’re not an early riser, viewing an evening launch of a cluster of illuminated balloons – known in the trade as a “moon glow” – may be your best bet.

If watching doesn’t seem like enough, it is certainly possible to go for the low-tech ride of a lifetime at the Hudson Valley HotAir Balloon Festival. For the real thing, an untethered “walkabout” journey through the sky, you’ll have to purchase tickets in advance; be prepared to shell out $250 for a 6 a.m. launch and $275 for 6 p.m. The length of your flight and your landing site

may vary. If you’re willing to wait in line and spend $20 (cash only), you can opt for a tethered ride, which will take you up, up but not away. These happen between 5 and 9 a.m. and again from noon to sunset.

All flights are “weather permitting,” with no guarantee that a launch will happen in the timeframe that you’ve reserved. Even when they’re not carrying passengers, balloonists are a cautious lot who only take off in predictably safe conditions.

Helicopter rides are another aerial thrill being offered (though these again will be limited if adverse weather conditions prevail). Antique airplanes from the Rhinebeck Aerodrome will do flyovers.

On the ground, there will be hayrides for the whole family, and youngsters can take a ride on the trackless Roaming Railroad.

Other kid-friendly activities include the Great White Shark Slide, the Heart Pumper Obstacle Course, Reptile Encounters and Birds of Prey exhibitions, the Two-by-Two Petting Zoo, face-painting and miniature golf. There will be field games and carnival games. Perhaps most intriguing of all, you can check out the mobile versions of the latest interactive attractions at Headless Horseman Hayrides, known as Escape Rooms.

Live performers will include illusionist Ryan Dutcher, Bee Bee the Clown and lots of musicians: Freedom Class on Friday evening, Lucky House and Wyld Blu on Saturday and the CloudeNYne Band and the Roadhouse Roosters on Sunday. Aerophone, a 50-piece band, will play patriotic tunes during the Hot-Air Balloon Illumination Moon Glow events on both Friday and Saturday night, weather permitting.

Teens and tweens who love YA literature will have chances to chat with teenaged Rhinebeck author Erin Forbes, who will be signing copies of her Fire & Ice series of novels between 4 and 7 p.m. each day.

Sessions of Sunrise Yoga with Ruby Star Healing Arts and Morning Mat Pilates with Studio 8 will be offered on both Saturday and Sunday mornings; reserve your spot in advance. And for thirsty 21+ grownups only, a Craft Beverage Tap Tent beckons.

The Fairgrounds gates will be open with free admission from 5 to 9 a.m. on Saturday and Sunday. The grounds will then close until noon, and an admission fee will be required to reenter between 12 and 9:30 p.m. both days, or from 4 to 9:30 p.m. on Friday. Most of the vendor action and activities will take place in the

afternoon and evening hours, though a breakfast fundraiser to benefit Dutchess Outreach is scheduled for 5:30 to 8:30 a.m. on Saturday and Sunday mornings.

Admission costs $10 in advance per day, $10 at the gate for Friday evening and $13 at the gate for either Saturday or Sunday afternoon and evening. Admission for children aged 3 to 16 includes a Game Coupon voucher to play eight carnival games; children under age 3 get in free.

On Friday at the gate only, seniors aged 65+ and military personnel get in for $7.

An All-Weekend Access Pass costs $23.

t’s hard to believe that the Drive-by-Truckers have been representing the heaviest, rockingest side of alt/country for more than 20 years. Led by Patterson Hood (son of legendary Muscle Shoals session musician David Hood, who also toured and recorded with Traffic), the Drive-by Truckers have been, from the start, a multi-songwriter band almost approaching the status of a collective, like a downhome, sh*t-kicking Broken Social Scene or something.

Right now, Truckers alum Jason Isbell – who left on good terms over the simple issue of songwriting bandwidth and who still sits in on occasion – is on top of the mountain of current traditional roots songwriters with Sturgill Simpson and a handful of others; but Hood and the other songwriters in the Drive-by Truckers scene continue to release vital and heavy music: populist in sound, but epic and ambitious in lyrical scope, as evidenced by such high-concept works as 2001’s Southern Rock Opera and 2008’s epic Brighter than Creation’s Dark, and no fewer than six releases since.

The Drive-By Truckers will blow the roof off Colony in Woodstock (someone needs to warn Neil) on Thursday, July 5 at 8 p.m. General admission tickets cost $50; VIP balcony passes go for $75.

Yes, that tiny burg on the western flank of the Shawangunk Ridge has long been a haven for immigrants from Eastern Europe, and the Soyuzivka Heritage Center has long been dedicated to the preservation of traditional Ukrainian culture. If you want to learn the language, you can take courses there, or send your kid to summer camp. It’s the region’s authoritative place to go for pysanky demos at Eastertime, and every July there’s a three-day blowout called the Soyuzivka Cultural Festival. It’ll be back for its 12th visitation Friday through Sunday, July 13 to 15.

As of presstime, the full schedule for the Festival had not yet been posted on the Center’s website or Facebook page.

However, you can now get tickets for the “Lviv Retro Gala” that kicks off the weekend on Friday evening. Meant to evoke the vibe of Old Lviv, the city sometimes called the “Little Paris of Ukraine,” the gala will star Oleksandr Ponomarov, Orest Lutiy, Iryna Fedyshyn, Vasyl Popadiuk and emcee Petro Maha.

MUSIC

Nels Cline 4 at Helsinki Hudson this Saturday

O

ne of the brassiest ideas Jeff Tweedy ever had was to open Wilco’s elegant and inclusive progressive-roots sound to the shred-grade chops of Nels Cline.

Let’s be clear: Hip people hate chops, and let’s be equally clear: Cline has them and makes no attempt to hide them or obscure them in intentional noise. At first there was a light incongruity to Cline’s occasional Satrianism racing over Tweedy’s desultory pop; but over time his memorable flourishes, accents, conceptual counterpoint and rare moments of pointy shred so enriched Wilco’s sound and expanded its range that the move can ultimately be called nothing less than a triumph, as well as a stern lesson to hipsters.

Cline, of course, was already known amongst guitarists and fans of avant-leaning instrumental music. He has maintained his niche solo career, as well as his career as a prolific session player, all through the Wilco years. His latest project is the Nels Cline 4, a guitarcentric quartet featuring the great guitarist Julian Lage and an absolute stud jazz rhythm section in bassist Scott Colley (Jim Hall’s longtime duo partner) and drummer Tom Rainey.

The Nels Cline 4 perform at Club Helsinki on Saturday, July 7 at 9 p.m. Tickets cost $25 in advance, $30 at the door. For tickets and additional information, visit www. helsinkihudson.com. Club Helsinki is located at 405 Columbia Street in Hudson.

Your $150 ticket also includes an elegant dinner, cocktail hour, meet-the-artists reception, full weekend pass and VIP parking. Regular Festival admission on Saturday or Sunday costs $30.

To order, call (845) 626-5641. For more details as the event draws closer, visit www.soyuzivka.com or www.facebook. com/soyuzivka. The Soyuzivka Heritage Center is located at 216 Foordmore Road, off Route 44/55 in Kerhonkson.

TANGO NUEVO STARS TANGHETTO PLAY BEARSVILLE THIS SATURDAY

I

f the word “tango” makes you think of movies from the 1930s, you need to get caught up. In the 1980s, largely inspired by the innovations of bandeonist/composer Astor Piazzolla, a modern alternative to traditional Argentine tango began to gain traction in the dance world. It’s known as tango nuevo, and musically, it crosses over with electronica.

Woodstock Tango founder/promoter Ilene Marder likes to call the style New Wave electro-tango, and will be bringing perhaps its most famous contemporary practitioner to the Valley for the very first time this weekend.

The band, called Tanghetto and headed up by synth-player/composer Max Masri, formed in 2002 and was nominated for a Latin Grammy Award in the Best Instrumental Album category for its first LP, Emigrante (it lost, honorably, to Yo-Yo Ma).

Some 13 albums and many world tours later, Tanghetto is playing Lincoln Center this week and popping in for a show at the Bearsville Theater on Saturday, July 7.

As is typical of a Woodstock Tango production, this will be a multi-activity, full-evening event. VIP ticketholders can attend a special Champagne Meet & Greet with Tanghetto from 6 to 7:15 p.m.; the package includes refreshments, poster-signings, CDs and reserved theater seating for the concert. Between 7 and 8 p.m., Marder will present an Absolute Beginners’ Tango Lesson. At 8 p.m., Tanghetto will take the stage, joined by guest performers Hector Pablo Pereyra, Maia Martinez and David Salvatierra. Between sets and during the Late-Night Milonga (Argentine tango dance party) afterwards, Marder herself will be spinning classic tango discs under her deejay handle of La Rubia del Norte.

Ticket prices are $70 for the full package, $35 for beginners’ class, concert and milonga and $15 for the Late-Night Milonga only, from 11 p.m. to 1 a.m. For reservations, call (845) 399-9034 or visit www.bearsvilletheater.com.

FESTIVAL

PianoSummer at SUNY-New Paltz gets underway on Tuesday

V

ladimir Feltsman, after arriving in the US in 1987, quickly restarted his piano performing career (his first US concert was at the White House, the second at Carnegie Hall) and just as quickly took up a new teaching position at SUNY-New Paltz. He began the PianoSummer Festival there in 1995. “The teaching model was the most important feature,” he says.

I wanted the kids to come and have lessons with different teachers, five days a week. I have been part of many piano institutes and camps, and I have never seen anything like this anywhere else.

“In my own experiences, I had one of the greatest piano teachers who ever lived, Jacob Flier. At the Moscow Conservatory at the same time we had other great teachers known around the world: Zak, Neuhaus, Oborin and Gilels. At the Juilliard School, they also had great teachers. But the culture of music schools is that you have to be loyal to your teacher. If you played for someone else, it would be bad for your relationship with your teacher. So I wanted to give the kids a chance to hear different opinions from people who represent different schools of piano-playing.

“We needed a strong faculty, and we have one. Two of the teachers aside from myself have been with PianoSummer since it started. We have now limited the faculty to five, because we have limited the students to 25, and now each student gets three lessons with each teacher. That means each teacher gives five lessons a day!

“In my pep talk with the students, before they begin lessons, I try to get across that the most important thing for anyone in creative endeavors is the ability to learn.

I hope they will learn how to learn, absorb information, take what works for you and leave what doesn’t. When it comes through you, you absorb it and it becomes yours. Some kids tell me they are confused because one teacher says one thing and another one says another. I say, ‘Use your instinct. It’s your decision. Nobody has any ultimate truth, including me.’”

When asked what is new about PianoSummer this year, Feltsman replies, “The year, right between 2017 and 2019.” The major changes in the PianoSummer Festival – which runs at SUNY-New Paltz from July 10 to 27 – actually occurred last year. While the Festival is full of events open to the public, ranging from master classes to full-length recitals, its main focus is on the 25 students who come from literally around the world to study with master teachers. Starting last year, PianoSummer has been tuition-free, including housing, meaning that the bestquality students are admitted regardless of locale or financial status. As a result, even the student recitals will be appealing to general audiences.

The Festival’s public events begin with a Roundtable Discussion among faculty members on Tuesday, July 10.

It takes place at 3 p.m., and like all events, it occurs at the college’s Studley Theatre. On Thursday, July 12, also at 3 p.m., the noted pianist Awadagin Pratt will present a master class. In these events, students play works in front of an audience for a teacher who then gives them suggestions on how to improve their performances. Even for non-musicians, these sessions can prove illuminating on what goes into a successful performance. Pratt holds a piano institute of his own at the University of Cincinnati, where Feltsman has appeared numerous times. On Friday, July 13, at 7 p.m., a group of PianoSummer students chosen by the faculty will collaborate on a full-length recital.

One of the Festival’s highlights is always the Faculty Gala, this year on Saturday, July 14 at 7 p.m. Five teachers at the Festival will give performances, including Paulina Dokovska, who will celebrate the French national holiday Bastille Day by playing music of Debussy.

Week 2 presents five public events: The Jacob Flier Piano Competition, contested among selected students, has two sessions, on July 16 and 18 at 3 p.m. Teachers at the Festival are the judges, along with a few ringers (including this writer). More of the best students play at a second Student Recital on Thursday, July 19 at 3 p.m.

Vladimir Feltsman began PianoSummer in New Paltz in 1995

On Friday the 20th, also at 3, Paul Harvey, Jr. presents a unique event: “Stagecraft: A Workshop.” Harvey, who produced his father’s famous radio show, had to give up his own career as a pianist because of hand problems. (He was a close friend of Van Cliburn.) Also a composer, Harvey wrote and produced several musicals. Feltsman says, “Whatever anyone can know about show biz and stagecraft, he knows.” Harvey will be concentrating on what goes on to prepare, before a performance even begins.

On Saturday night, July 21, PianoSummer presents a major “catch”: Marc-André Hamelin, one of the bestknown of all contemporary pianists. Feltsman says that he has been attempting to get Hamelin to the Festival for years. After building a huge reputation for playing virtuoso piano music too difficult for anyone else, Hamelin is now concentrating on mainstream repertoire; his recital will include Schumann’s Fantasie in C and Schubert’s Sonata in B Flat. Since Hamelin routinely sells out Carnegie Hall and other major venues, this is an event for which you will need to buy tickets well in advance.

Week 3 begins with another master class, on July 24 at 3 p.m., this one by pianist Daria Rabotkina. A student of Feltsman, Rabotkina also attended PianoSummer, in 1998.

In 2007 she won the Concert Artists’ Guild International Competition. She now teaches at Texas State University and is associate director of the Texas State International Piano Festival. Her latest CD will be released this year.

Student Recital No. 3 occurs on Thursday, July 26 at 7 p.m. The Festival concludes on Friday, July 27 with the Flier Competition Gala, three prizewinners from the 2017 Festival.

ALMANAC WEEKLY

July 5, 2018

Q: What runs but never gets tired?

A: Water

ERICA'S CANCER JOURNEY

From heart effusion to sacred waters “Let the waters settle and you will see the moon and the stars mirrored in your own being.”

– Rumi “They say we’re 98 percent water. We’re that close to drowning.

I like to live on the edge.”

– Steven Wright

W

hen simply brushing my teeth became taxing enough to catch my breath, I contacted my oncologist, who did urgent chest imaging, which sent me to the ED (forget Noah Wyle/John Carter; it’s called the Emergency Department nowadays), and ultimately landed me in the hospital. While the sensation felt the same as in years past, it

The procedure is pretty straightforward, although the name of it is not: pericardiocentesis. Loosely translated from Latin, it means “pierce the affected heart chamber with a needle connected to a tube that exits the sternum and drains the fluid for a few days into a clear purselet-sized plastic pouch clipped to one’s shirt that you don’t get to keep even if you ask nicely.” I had no pain before, during or after the 20-minute operation.

Who are the lucky winners to score this prize? Usually people who have cancer, but not all people with cancer get it. Kind of like all squares are parallelograms, but not all parallelograms…well, you get the idea. 1.04 liters is a respectable amount, if you ask me. But some folks have topped off at just over two liters(!), so no medical journals for me (I asked). Because of my cancer, my heart is expected to be bathed again at some point in sacred waters – I mean, “fill with pericardial fluid” – but not to this dramatic extreme, because I have around four zillion (Latin for “a freaking lot of ”) follow-up echocardiograms. At least I get a free snazzy paper vest each time they ultrasound my heart.

“Water is the one substance from which the Earth can conceal nothing; it sucks out its innermost secrets and brings them to our very lips.”

– Jean Giraudoux The night before my pericardiocentesis (which is so much easier to copy and paste than it is to say), I felt led to invite an energy-healer friend to visit me in the hospital. I was thinking just an overall tune-up, a pre-procedure boost; nothing really specific. And, wow! Wowza!

I traveled. I was gifted with powerful visions: long, lush grasses lining the entire perimeter of the surgical suite. A view of an underground Greco-Roman bath chamber built of red marble, lined with smooth, majestic columns and an empty rectangular pool in the center of the room. Robed sages milled about. I was a little disappointed that the pool was empty, when suddenly crystal-clear waters swirled it into capacity. A few moments later, as suddenly as they had arrived, this powerful energy receded, and the pool was drained once again. When I sat up, I was positively jubilant from this rich, emerging awareness awakened within me about my procedure.

“You’re water. We’re the millstone. You’re wind. We’re dust blown up into shapes.

You’re spirit. We’re the opening and closing of our hands. You’re the clarity.

We’re the language that tries to say it. You’re joy. We’re all the different kinds of laughing.”

– Rumi I immediately understood why my heart filled up in the first place: These sacred waters had a purpose! They had been part of a spiritual blessing in and around my heart, enabling an energetic elevation of vibration in my being. And now their mission was complete. These waters – or as the doctors keep calling it, pericardial fluid – no longer served me and were ready to be released. They collected in my body with pure intention. I was empowered by this shift from a cold, detached “throw the bums out” separation between them and me to a warm, respectful and loving, “Thank you for your service.”

“Before enlightenment – chop wood, carry water.

After enlightenment – chop wood, carry water.”

I consider my cancer journey a spiritual one, and this transformation was a gift of grace. I’m asking myself, “What else can I reframe more wholly along this path, in my daily routine or tough times?” I pose the same question to you: “What’s asking to be reframed in your life in a healing, supportive way?”

Institute of Medicine that: Adolescent brains are uniquely vulnerable to the effects of nicotine; A younger age of initiation is strongly associated with greater nicotine dependence and is also associated with greater intensity and persistence of smoking beyond adolescence and into adulthood; Almost one in three high school seniors in Ulster County report having tried cigarettes; Underage users rely primarily on social sources to acquire tobacco and most of those sources are likely to be between eighteen (18) and twentyone (21) years old; Raising the minimum legal age to twenty-one (21) will mean that those who can legally obtain tobacco are less likely to be in the same social networks as high school students; Raising the minimum legal age will likely immediately improve the health of adolescents and young adults by reducing the number of those with adverse physiological effects.
