Lightweight humaninterest story turns sinister in Three Identical Strangers Three Identical Strangers retells a story that was all over the tabloids and talk shows in the 1980s: how 19-year-old Robert Shafran arrived for his first day of school at Sullivan County Community College and found himself eagerly welcomed “back” by fellow students. That same night he was introduced to his doppelganger, Edward Galland, who had been born on the same date and adopted out by the same agency. When their story began appearing in newspapers, their third lost sibling, David Kellman, got in touch with Bobby and Eddy.

If all there was to this story was the triplets’ joyous reunion, their bachelor antics at Studio 54, their cameo spot in Desperately Seeking Susan, their successful Roumanian steakhouse venture, I wouldn’t blame anyone for deciding to give Three Identical Strangers a pass. But the triplets’ tale soon turns dark, and then darker still, in a series of finely orchestrated, rigorously documented and suspensefully unwound plot twists. You will walk out of this film feeling rattled.

To reveal too many details up-front to viewers who don’t already know the background would be unfair to director Tim Wardle’s painstaking efforts to peel back this rotting onion one layer at a time, which he executes very skillfully indeed (and on a modest budget). Let’s just say that things start to get strange when Bobby, Eddy and David’s adoptive parents begin to confront the Louise Wise Services Jewish adoption agency about why it didn’t tell any of them that the six-month-old babies placed with them were triplets. The answer they’re offered – that it’s difficult to find an adoptive home that will accept three babies at once – is deeply unsatisfying. His curiosity piqued by the story, Pulitzer Prizewinning New Yorker journalist Lawrence Wright starts digging and finds out not only that splitting up the boys was deliberate, but why. The answers may chill your enthusiasm for the science of psychology for a good while.

By the end, Three Identical Strangers becomes a detailed inquiry into the nature-versus-nurture debate as well as an indictment of well-meaning scholarship tending toward social engineering. It’s intensely thought-provoking as well as morally disturbing. Go catch this fine documentary while it’s still running at Upstate Films in Rhinebeck. You’ll soon understand why it became the surprise hit at Sundance 2018.

Ulster County Fair in New Paltz this week

B

y the time you read this, the Ulster County Fair will be well underway, and you will have missed the awesome entry discount of $50 for up to eight people on Carload Night on Tuesday. But don’t be sad; the Fair goes on through Sunday, August 5. Seniors are admitted free from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Thursday, August 2; otherwise, the pay-oneprice admission of $17 per person covers all midway rides, shows and entertainment (not counting games) from 10 a.m. until closing. Rides open at 11 a.m. It’s a good deal, and a reliably fun immersion in the authentic cornpone ambiance of an old-timey country fair (plus some high-tech thrill rides).

Some people pick their fair day on the basis on the evening headline act, so here’s that schedule: Actor/singer Billy Bob Thornton appears with his band the Boxmasters at 8 p.m. on Wednesday, August 1. The indestructible Charlie Daniels Band steps up at 8 p.m. on Thursday, August 2. “Hat act” Keith Anderson delivers two shows on Friday, August 3, at 4 and 8 p.m.

Up-and-coming Nashville star Jenny Tolman performs at 7 p.m. on Saturday, August 4, followed by Cale Dodds at 8 p.m. And Steve Augeri, former lead vocalist of Journey, flexes his pipes at 5:30 p.m. on Sunday to wrap up the Fair.

Daily entertainment includes Robinson’s Racing Pigs, the Two by Two Petting Zoo, the Butterfly Experience, the Moogician and chainsaw carver Josh Landry. Wednesday evening ends with fireworks. There’s a truck pull on Thursday evening and an antique tractor pull on Friday. Horse shows spotlight draft horses on Wednesday and Friday, ponies on Thursday, a Western gymkhana on Saturday and English dressage on Sunday. Other attractions include police dog drills, spinning and weaving demonstrations, all the usual competitions for farm animals, preserves and pies – not the mention the 4-H Club’s booth selling justly famous extra-thick milkshakes. There’s something for pretty much everyone here.

The Ulster County Fairgrounds are located at 249 Libertyville Road in New Paltz, west of the Wallkill River crossing.

(Arriving from the direction of Gardiner is the locals’ secret method of avoided traffic backups.) Parking is ample and free.

LongReach Arts’ “Niches” exhibition To river sailors, a “reach” means the maximum distance that their boat can sail

on a single tack, winds and currents permitting, before a bend in the stream forces them to come about. Geographically speaking, that translates into a stretch where the river flows roughly in a straight line without obstacles. The longest such stretch of the Hudson estuary, known to boaters as the Long Reach, corresponds to the heart of what we call the “midHudson”: from Crum Elbow in the north to the mouth of the Wappinger Creek in the south.

Thus, LongReach Arts is a pretty apt name for a cooperative representing artists who live and work in the midHudson region, primarily Ulster and Dutchess Counties. The organization has actually been around since 1982, originally under the name of the Summergroup. This Sunday, the works of 17 LongReach artists go on view in vertical niches that run along the interior of Beacon’s historic Howland Cultural Center, in a group exhibition

Tall ship in Kingston

oes summery weather make you yearn to get out on the water, preferably on a vessel powered by the wind rather than a stinky, noisy motor? From August 3 through 12, you’ll have multiple opportunities to do that, aboard the sailing ship of your dreams: the Kalmar Nyckel. It’s a full-scale replica of the Dutch-built, square-rigged merchant pinnace that brought Swedish settlers led by Peter Minuit to North America in 1638 to establish the colony of New Sweden, later known as Delaware. With ten cannons, 7,500 square feet of sails, six miles of rigging and a ten-story-high mainmast, the Kalmar Nyckel is a sight to be seen.

On Saturday, August 4 from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. and Sunday, August 5 from 2 to 6 p.m., the ship will be open for deck tours while docked at the Hudson River Maritime Museum on the Strand in Kingston’s Rondout District. Visitors can ring the ship’s bell, march around the capstan and steer the ship using the whipstaff. Deck tours cost $10 for adults and $5 for children under age 17; younger kids come aboard for free. Captain Lauren Morgens will present a special talk, “Working the Kalmar Nyckel: Understanding History and Innovation through a Sailing Ship” at 7 p.m. on Saturday, August 4. Lecture tickets are $10 for purchase at the Hudson River Maritime Museum.

But you wanted to be out on the actual river, didn’t you? Day sails are scheduled from noon to 2:30 p.m. on Monday, August 6, Thursday, August 9 and Sunday, August 12, and from 5 to 7:30 p.m. on Friday, August 3, Monday, August 6 and Thursday to Sunday, August 9 through 12. Guests are invited to haul lines, set sails and enjoy maritime tales of the original Kalmar Nyckel – or just bring along a picnic and enjoy time on the water. Prices for day sails are $60 for adults, $40 for children under 17.

Special Pirate Sails have been added to the schedule for the more adventurous and young at heart. The Kalmar Nyckel welcomes landlubbers to “walk the plank” for a fun-filled Pirate Sail on Sunday, August 5 from 10 a.m. to noon or Friday and Saturday, August 10 and 11 from noon to 2 p.m. Tickets cost $55 for adults and $35 for children under 17. The ship’s crew don pirate and sailor garb, spin pirate tales, host a scavenger hunt and raise the Jolly Roger. Costumes are optional for guests.

To book your sail, visit www.kalmarnyckel.org/bookasail.asp. While tickets may also be purchased at the dock prior to a scheduled sail, it is best to make reservations. The Hudson River Maritime Museum is located at 50 Rondout Landing in Kingston.

Mushroom hike in West Shokan this Friday Do you envy “mycogeeks” – people who can easily rattle off the scientific names of mushroom species – every time you flinch at the price of a gourmet meal involving wild fungi? Are you already confident in your ability to identify a few edible species, but baffled about where to begin looking for them? Perhaps joining an expedition led by more knowledgeable mushroom-hunters is in order.

This Friday afternoon, August 3, the Olive Free Library is organizing a free Mushroom ID Hike. Participants will meet at the Library at 3 p.m. and carpool/ caravan up to the Kenape Trail. Recent rainy weather should bring out abundant blooms of ‘shrooms of many seasonal species. You probably won’t become privy to anyone’s secret chanterelle source, but learning to tell the difference between the succulent, the inedible and the downright deadly is a good way to get started.

The outing should take about an hourand-a-half. Wear sturdy shoes and bring water. To preregister, call (845) 657-2482 or e-mail programs@olivefreelibrary.org.

The Olive Free Library is located at 4033 Route 28A in West Shokan.

and puncturing a lung in the process.

Mission: Impossible - Fallout might be the best installment yet in the big-screen reboot of the ’60s television series. The action is thrilling and the direction and performances hit the right notes. Cruise’s Hunt is the perfect character for the actor to play at this stage of his career. He is Cruise. A superhigh-functioning, self-ac tualized workaholic with a mysterious inner life who wants to make you happy.

Don’t buy him as a romantic lead anymore? That’s fine. He gets it. His longest sustained interaction with an actress with any hint of emotion is with a former love who has found a balanced and meaningful life with a new guy. Hunt endorses this, and she endorses his maniacal need to save the world. Not sure if you can trust him, with the whole Scientology thing and the backlash he’s experienced from it? The movie uses that too, with Hunt’s weird life and repeated betrayal by the government given as possible reasons that

This is the best kind of villain: Not a megalomaniac seeking world domination, but a group with an ostensibly worthy goal whose cold logic would make the means to that end unspeakably h o r r i fi c . T h e Apostles would have no trouble with the classic ethical dilemma: They’d push the fat man off the platform to stop the runaway trolley and save the innocent persons in its path. Ethan Hunt would first ensure the man was safe before flinging himself down onto the trolley, crash through the roof, and, through an instant and intuitive mastery of trolley controls, somehow jump the track and crash into a nearby depot, saving all involved – though breaking several ribs

NIGHT SKY

The gemstone rainbow Look for the Magnificent Six

T

he night of the Martian super-close approach has come and gone. But Mars remains blazingly brilliant all month. And it’s not even the best thing out there.

My friend Billie-Jo tells about her recent Rhode Island beach camping trip: “My husband Randy and I just stood there gaping at that amazing array of planets – Venus, Jupiter, Saturn and Mars all in a row.” It was gratifying to see a non-astronomer so accurately aware of, and excited by, the rare display above our heads this summer. But it won’t last forever. By late fall, only Saturn and Mars will remain, with the latter too distant and tiny to draw much attention.

And it’s not just planets. Evenly spaced between those worlds are some of the zodiac’s most famous stars, with the whole thing forming a rainbow of gemstones.

Want to see it for yourself ? It’s easy, if you can get to a place with an unobstructed sweep of sky to the west, south and southeast, like the Walkway over the Hudson. Or maybe you have hilltop friends with an extensive view. Or you can phone the affable Barry Knight, who might take you up on his amazing private fire tower near the Ashokan Reservoir.

The correct time is important. Before 9 p.m., Mars is too low in the southeast. After around 9:30, Venus gets too low in the west, or even sets. So, you really want to observe this thing from 9 to 9:15 p.m. Any clear night in the next few weeks will work. Rip out this page, bring it with you and just follow along.

Start with the brightest star above where the Sun set. There, lowish in the west, is brilliant Venus, which has been our companion for months. In the following, the word “brilliant” means one of the sky’s most dazzling “stars.” The word “bright” means less luminous, but still eyecatching.

Start your sweep to the left of Venus. You’ll be looking for a line of six bright or brilliant stars that gets slightly higher up as you look leftward, but then curves lower

he may be the shadowy villain the Mission Impossible team is seeking.

Cruise always does his own stunts. Some say that shouldn’t influence how we watch a scene, that the measure of a film is only what’s on the screen – that is, if a scene is shot with a stuntman or on a green screen, and you can’t tell the difference, then it doesn’t matter. Whether or not it should matter, it does. If you know that Cruise really broke his ankle jumping from a building – and that take is in the movie – or that he and co-star Henry Cavill completed more than 100 high-altitude jumps during the three minutes per day of available light for a sunset skydiving sequence, or that it’s really him on a BMW motorcycle threading the needle through precisely choreographed traffic in Paris – this elevates the film above the typical modern CGI spectacle.

It’s the anti-superhero movie.

Superheroes fly gracefully and collide with the force of megatons, but never really hurt one another. The movies, when they work,

are interesting because the characters, like Greek gods, represent archetypal human conflicts on a supernatural stage. Their battles are ritual – a necessary, formalized part of the drama needed to advance the story.

Ethan Hunt is all too human. He’s in great shape for a guy in his 50s, but watch him run at top speed for what seems like several minutes, or climb a rope suspended from a helicopter, fall and painstakingly make his way back up – these are scenes no one would think to use CGI for. They’re not graceful, but they work. There’s blood, sweat, pumping lungs, the collision of hard bone on unyielding concrete. You watch with sweaty palms and vertigo.

The comparison of action movies to amusement park rides is a cliche, but apt. Genre movies work when they induce an involuntary emotional and/or physical response: laughter (comedy), fear (horror), enchantment (fantasy), and so on. If they marshal all the tools of film to create the intended effect, then they

again, making the whole formation a kind of enormous, slightly flattened rainbow that starts leftward from Venus and ends in nearly the opposite direction of the sky.

Ready? From Venus, go left and a bit higher and you’ll see the bright-blue star Spica, Virgo’s main luminary. Continue left and slightly upward to the brilliant yellow/white Jupiter, the highest point of the rainbow. Go left and a bit lower from Jupiter, and you’ll see the bright-orange Antares, the major luminary of Scorpius. Continue left from orange Antares, and the next bright star is the colorless Saturn. (Saturn’s actually a bit higher than Antares, spoiling the perfect rainbow arc.) Continue left and lower from Saturn, and you reach the very brilliant and orange Mars.

If you counted six stars, you’ve succeeded, with four of them being planets. They’re each separated by roughly the same distance from each other. You don’t need a telescope for any of this. But if you own any-size scope lying around gathering dust, your best targets are Jupiter and Saturn.

Again, the only challenge is finding a site with an open, unobstructed view halfway around the sky from the west through the south to the southeast. If you’re nestled somewhere, you may have to move to a couple of spots, and take in pieces at a time – of this magnificent, jeweled, celestial rainbow.

MUSIC Phoenicia Festival of the Voice this weekend

T

he Phoenicia Festival of the Voice may be the clinical example of our region’s uniquely disproportionate art-to-population and quality-to-density ratios. Remote, small and uncompromisingly high quality for what it is, the Festival of the Voice is a delightful absurdity. To put it another way, in the ’70s, you were about 1,000 times more likely to see members of the Band drinking in local rooms than performing in them.

That has changed, and one of the chief indicators of the change is the proliferation of high-grade festivals catering to sophisticated tastes.

It is old news that every third or fourth cottage in the Catskills seems to house a federally funded sculptor (often in matched pairs), or at the very least, someone who has played with David Bowie. The Hudson Valley and the Woodstock area in particular have been a picturesque housing project for national and international artists for a nearly a century. What is comparatively new to the region is this spirit of arts programbuilding: the sense of the Catskills as a liminal Berkshires hewn of old-growth forests and still a little red behind the neck.

The awakening “work local” ethic among our residing arts professionals may have just as much to do with the culturewide devaluation of “content,” epiphanies born of the near-death experiences of numerous arts industries. The “local” has never been much of revenue stream, and still isn’t; but, when the big rivers run dry? Nobody elects lean times, but it is hard to deny the

orn in Kingston, the O+ Festival has spread across the river to Poughkeepsie. Combining art, music, healthcare and awareness, the second annual O+ Poughkeepsie Festival takes place on August 3 and 4. Three mural artists and more than 20 musical acts take part in this multi-location street-scene happening. The Gardiner-based legendary graffiti and mural artist Lady Pink, who made a mural in Kingston during the 2016 festival, now undertakes a large-scale project in Poughkeepsie, as will Newburgh-based mural artist and graphic designer Joe Pimentel and muralist and educator Sam Meyerson of New York City. The three works will be unified by the common theme of “Shadow.�

Since its inception, O+’s approach to music has combined local with national. This year’s Poughkeepsie festival places an emphasis on busker-style street performance, hip-hop, reggae/dub, indie-rock, folk/bluegrass, electronic and spoken-word.

Notable performers this year include Lara Hope & the Ark-Tones (rockabilly), Bright Dog Red (improvisational) and JAHG (rap).

Healthcare services and awareness have been integral to O+’s design from the outset. The participating musicians and artists will receive complimentary health and wellness care in the O+ Artists’ Clinic, which is staffed by volunteer providers. Festival attendees can also experience a wellness EXPO+ that highlights health and wellness services locally available and have the opportunity to take EXPLO+RE classes in yoga, dance, meditation and more.

MAD CELEBRATION OF THE ARTS ON FRIDAY A Little Nightmare Music features two classical virtuosi – Aleksey Igudesman and Hyung-ki Joo – having more than a little fun with enchanting music, a wealth of performance gags and zany, outrageous humor. Speaking of zany humor, the legendary Monty Python member (and Chaucer scholar) Terry Jones raved, “A Little Nightmare Music brings Surrealism to the concert hall and takes its trousers down! Very musical, very engaging and very funny.”

M

idtown Kingston is seething with arts-related activity, finally making a vigorous comeback from the downturn that followed IBM’s exit from the local economy nearly a quarter-century ago.

Besides long careers of working with local youth and personal investment in the neighborhood’s renaissance, Lara Giordano (Department of Regional Art Workers and Pop-up Gallery Group) and Bryant “Drew” Andrews (Center for Creative Education) have something else in common just now: They’re this year’s chosen honorees for the Red Goat Awards, bestowed annually by the Kingston Midtown Arts District (MAD) to recognize outstanding contributions to the arts in Kingston. The awards ceremony is but one component of MAD’s summer extravaganza known as the Celebration of the Arts, which happens for the fourth time on Friday evening, August 3.

Besides affording a concentrated opportunity for the uninitiated to sample the smörgåsbord of art stuff that’s currently going on in Midtown, the Celebration of the Arts is touting such enticements as “Food Trucks! Air Conditioning! Free Admission!” How strong a motivator the middle point of that sales pitch may become depends on Friday’s weather. But one factor that won’t vary is the cool new venue: the Cornell Creative Arts Center, located at the ARC of Ulster-Greene at 139 Cornell Street. The Center is slated to officially open in 2019, but this event will give attendees a chance to get an early peek inside the new facilities.

Once completed, the 10,000-square-foot space will house ten artist studios including a dance/movement studio, community room workshop and 800 square feet of open space for membership co-working and event rental. It will provide many opportunities for ARC’s aspiring artists – people with developmental disabilities – to express their artistic abilities, gain confidence, showcase their works and sell their artwork online to help support their financial independence.

The Celebration of the Arts 2018 will kick off at 6:30 p.m. with a sign-unveiling ceremony at the Deep Listening Plaza at Broadway Commons, which at last year’s Celebration was officially dedicated to the memory of internationally famed avantgarde composer Pauline Oliveros, one of MAD’s founders. These solemnities will be followed by a boisterous parade to the Cornell Creative Arts Center, led by huge papier-mâché processional figures from Arm-of-the-Sea Theater and accompanied by the Percussion Orchestra of Kingston (POOK) and the Energy Dance Company.

Musicians, dancers and performance artists who live and work in the Arts District are headlining the annual celebration of the reinvigoration of Midtown, curated by pianist, composer, recording artist, music educator and writer Peter Wetzler, who earlier this year was named the City of Kingston’s Distinguished Artist Awardee. The musical lineup includes singer/songwriter duo the Hipstones, reggae/dub performers Jamie Saft and New Zion, pianist Andrea Shaut, singers Eleni Reyes and Donny Mapes. A Balkan-inspired band called Greek Night promises “lively music in odd meters and unusual scales,” which should prepare attendees’ ears nicely for the microtonal singing of Grammy-nominated Kingston resident Yungchen Lhamo, slated to perform at the opening of fellow Tibetan artist Kunsang Tenzin’s photography exhibit.

Broadway Commons, where the festivities get underway, is located at 615 Broadway, where it intersects with Henry Street to the south and O’Neil Street to the north. The entrance to the Cornell Creative Arts Center is at the corner of Bruyn Avenue and Cornell Street, just one block north of the main Kingston Post Office. For GPS navigation, use 80 Bruyn Avenue.

Josh White, Jr. has been in the public eye since becoming a child star in the 1940s. He has sustained a vital and diverse career as a Tony-winning actor and prolific recording artist.

Vanaver Caravan to perform at Matagiri’s 50th anniversary

Founded in 1968 by three artists, Sam Spanier, Eric Hughes and Lee Brooks, the Matagiri Sri Aurobindo Center in Mount Tremper will celebrate its 50th anniversary on August 2 with a four-day gathering at the Ashokan Center in Olivebridge, highlighted by a Saturday-night performance of music and dance by the Vanaver Caravan. The theme of the conference is “Art as a Bridge,” reflecting the fact that the inspiration behind the Center, Sri Aurobindo, was a poet and his collaborator, Mira Alfassa, was an artist who trained at the Academie Julian in Paris.

A number of the events are open to the public, including a Friday-evening Indian Classical concert and the Saturday-night benefit performance for the Vanaver Caravan, both at 7:30 p.m. Bill and Livia Vanaver have been conducting classes and creating performances in Auroville in India over the past four winters. Saturday afternoon will feature a talk by Aviram Rozin, who in 2003 started Sadhana Forest, a reforestation project on 70 acres of degraded land.

For information on these events or to register, call (845) 679-8322 to register or visit www.matagiri.org.

T come a largely academic and patrondriven art. What did Fats Waller know from fellowships?

But great jazz players and composers these days (and Hersch is among the best at both) are marginalized commercially, and this is how they make a go. They have borrowed the currencies of success and acclaim from the economy of “serious” music. Hersch also happens to be Grammy-nominated – which, as everyone should have figured out by now, is far more prestigious than being Grammywinning.

Like many of today’s more ambitious jazz minds, Hersch has “crossed over” in numerous directions. In his case, the targets tend to be not less but more rarefied, challenging and cerebral than the default jazz piano trio. His inventive solo interpretations of Jobim (2009’s Fred Hersch Plays Jobim) reimagine the music of Antonio Carlos “Tom” Jobim as introspective and almost classical in its internal, contrapuntal complexity.

Hersch’s stunning Leaves of Grass (2005) is a brainy chamber/vocal/jazz setting of the poetry of Walt Whitman. It is “jazz” only insofar as it borrows from jazz’s harmonic language. In 2017’s Open Book, Hersch put his intellect and emotion on bold display with a solo piano record

rum and bugle corps stir something powerful within, generally whether or not you are willing to be stirred. A marching band stripped of every timbre beyond the percussive boom and rattle and the martial blaring of brass, the sound is inextricably connected both with a sense of battle and the aura of Colonial days. But the corps are also connected to a long-lived and substantive musical tradition that is resurgent. Drum and bugle competitions are gaining in popularity nationally.

On Saturday, August 4 at 7 p.m., the Children’s Home of Kingston presses the spacious Dietz Stadium into use for the March of Champions’ 23rd annual Drum & Bugle Corps Competition. The event features six competing corps, plus three additional exhibition corps. Tickets cost $20 for reserved seating, and as usual all proceeds benefit programs and services for youth at the Children’s Home of Kingston, which has been in existence since 1876. For reservations, call (845) 331-1448, extension 1140. Day-of-show tickets are available beginning at 1 p.m. The gates open at 5:30 p.m.

Charming Disaster

PERFORMANCE

Charming Disaster at Kingston’s Rough Draft on Wednesday

T

heir dark humor has been compared to that of Edward Gorey and Tim Burton. They’ve been called macabre, “folk noir” with a curiously unthreatening lilt. How do their lyrics inform those of us blithely living in what may well be the beginning of societal deconstruction, the aftermath of all we hold near and dear? And how do their outfits – all those feathers and contrasts in black, white and the occasional yellow or purple – uplift us from our plight?

These questions and more can be answered in the persons of Ellia Bisker and Jeff Morris when Charming Disaster returns to Rough Draft this week. The Brooklyn-based duo, primed to present the odd and offbeat in storytelling and music, will be at Rough Draft Bar & Books on Wednesday, August 8 at 7 p.m.

Bisker and Morris were each performing in larger bands when they met and decided to join creative forces. Morris says that they made a list of subjects they wanted to write songs about, and it immediately went to the dark side. Bisker says, “We were interested in storytelling. The first thing we thought of was a living woman in love with a ghost; it connected with our sensibilities. And that first night we were already on a trend: dead cat stories.” Sounds creepy, but she laughs. “I have too much of a sense of humor to be a good Goth.”

“We met in a bar where my band – strings and horns and backup singers and drums – was playing,” says Morris. “I was excited to learn about another band like mine, and about possibly sharing a bill together. But Ellia, thinking of the logistics, suggested that we just start out writing songs together.”

“With just two of us,” she says, “we could rehearse as much as we want. When you’re a prolific songwriter, it’s frustrating to not be able to get with your band very much to develop new material. The two of us have written over 50 songs together; we’ve released two albums and have another in the works. And it turns out we write well together. We read a lot, and our music is as influenced by books as it is by other music. We’re working on a song cycle around Marie Curie and her work, and songs about Houdini and his spiritualism.”

Fascinated with the early 20th century when the occult crossed paths with scientific developments, the pair turns anachronistic historical details into lyrics. “We play bookstores from time to time because we are a literary-oriented band,” she says. “When we played Rough Draft last April, after many songs I was recommending books, like, ‘You should check out The Poisoner’s Handbook: Murder and the Birth of Forensic Medicine in Jazz Age New York by Deborah Blum.’ Amanda [Stromoski, co-owner of Rough Draft] was sitting in the back of the room looking up the titles I mentioned and said she didn’t have any in stock.

So this time we’ve compiled a booklist ahead of time: folklore, fantasy, graphic novels.”

As a part of Charming Disaster’s Summerland Tour (“Summerland” is what the spiritualists called the afterlife, by the way), Bisker and Morris’s return to Rough Draft will “explore the different kinds of trouble two people can get into with a ukulele and a guitar.” Check them out at www.charmingdisaster.com and in person at Rough Draft.

reaches for first – not because his music is “polite” (it only appears that way to people who have not taken on its radical challenges), but because it is intensely

focused on composition. Jazz traditionally straddles the high and the low; Hersch has given his career almost entirely to the high.

Ripples “Ripples” was written by 15-year-old Sophie Reisbord in the Hudson Valley Writing Project’s 2017 Courageous Writers program with the Roosevelt and Vanderbilt National Historic Sites in Hyde Park.

Ripples

by Sophie Reisbord, age 15 “Grandpa, the water is so cold!” Franklin’s granddaughter said, sliding in anyway. Franklin smiled watching the ripples form as her body hit the water.

A ripple for the Great War A ripple for the bloodiest stalemate in history A ripple for the Treaty of Versailles, where fingers pointed and blame was assigned A ripple for Germany on the heels of defeat, on the brink of destruction A ripple for the people, the angry, the desolate, the poor A ripple for a man with the greatest weapon in the world; words A ripple as they travelled through Germany, feeding off of fear A ripple for a shop window broken and a mother crying A ripple for the people, the scapegoats, the victims, the scared A ripple for fascism A ripple for communism A ripple for the world divided, hurtling towards an uncertain future.

A ripple for the many men who ruled it A ripple for Hitler A ripple for Stalin A ripple for Mussolini A ripple for Churchill A ripple...for Roosevelt “Is something wrong dear?” Eleanor asked, sitting beside him.

“Something terrible is coming,” replied Franklin, “And I am not so much worried that I won’t be able to stop it, but I am terrified at the price I will be willing to pay.”

Franklin watched as Eleanor jumped into the pool with a SPLASH A splash he feared would soon be heard around the world.

MONDAY, AUGUST 6

Hudson Area Library hosts talk on youth incarceration As a region with a number of youth detention facilities, are you curious about the patterns of our justice system, particularly with regard to young people? I know I sure am. This Monday, August 6 from 6 to 7:30 p.m., join author Alexandra Cox, PhD at the Hudson Area Library for “An Exploration of Youth Incarceration.” Cox’s discussion is Hudson Valley-relevant and based on material from her new book, Trapped in a Vise: the Consequences of Confinement for Young People. Free and open to the public, this talk sounds eye-opening to me about information that few of us seem to know.

The Hudson Area Library is located at 51 North Fifth Street in Hudson. For more information, call (518) 828-1792, e-mail brenda.shufelt@hudsonarealibrary. org or visit http://hudsonarealibrary. org/2018/07/alexandra-cox-phd. To learn more about the author, visit www.essex.

Olana to host Natural Dyes workshop Are fiber arts your thing? Do you knit or weave or crochet for fun? If you’ve left synthetic yarns and fabrics behind and fallen in love with biodegradable fibers like cotton, linen, silk and wool, you’re probably thinking about the sources of the dyes used to color them as well.

Especially in the months between May and October, the Hudson Valley landscape is brimming with natural dye potential.

When we begin to identify local plants for their natural dye properties, we gain access to a palette of wildcrafted and foraged color. An introductory natural dye workshop being offered by Katrina Rodabough on August 11 at the Olana State Historic Site presents an opportunity to forage for local plants, learn about the use of mordants, prepare dye pots and produce several shades.

The “Natural Dyes with Local Plants” workshop is suited for the beginner dyer curious about using local plants and for the intermediate dyer who has some experience with natural dyes, but wants more information. Participants will leave with several fiber samples, a pamphlet with resources and step-bystep instructions and the confidence to continue deepening this creative practice.

The workshop, open to participants aged 14 and up, runs from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. on Saturday, August 11 and meets at the Wagon House Education Center on the grounds of Olana, located at 5720 Route 9G in Hudson. The workshop fee is $40 for members of the Olana Partnership, $45 for non-members. To preregister, visit https://bit.ly/2Av2GBl.

“Life isn’t about waiting for the storm to pass...

It’s about learning to dance in the rain.”

– Vivian Greene Q: Why does Snoop Dogg need an umbrella?

A: Fo’ Drizzle.

I

’m at Jacob’s Pillow smiling at Monica Bill Barnes & Co. skip across the floor during Happy Hour. I laugh at the tension created by their silent, piercing stares at audience members. I cringe from back pain exacerbated by the Shawangunk-to-Berkshire drive over. I am lifted by the dancers’ antics, amused by the karaoke sequence and in tears when the show ends. I don’t want the performance to be over. And I want to connect with Monica and Anna to share how much I enjoyed the evening they presented. I cry again when I’m told they won’t be coming out to chat.

“One of the wonderful things about dance is its mysterious power; a gesture or a dance step may spark an unexpected response, and often it’s hard to grasp why that has occurred.”

– Andrew Boynton I wonder, “Is cancer a dancer?”

I feel refreshed during a Monica Bill Barnes dance performance with its dynamic combinations alternating slow and speedy pacing; creative details like 1980s pop music; the two partners riffing off each other as one pulls the other offstage; unexpected eyerolls or mouthed “I love yous” across the room.

Cancer has its own rhythms, too. In my body, malignancy moves quickly, while I waste hours in interminable-waiting rooms. My visualizations and meditations yield powerful stories about my interior landscape, like the surgery suite sprouting grasses or the Roman bathhouse. I riff with medical staff and with Mike during appointments. I am surprised by periodic health crises that seem to crop up out of nowhere. I am so excited that Monica and Anna came outside after all, and I could tell them everything I loved in their piece.

“The rain in Spain stays mainly in the plain.”

– My Fair Lady At what cost for a dancer to perform? Is the knee strain worth it?

At what cost for me to see this MBB performance? Is the back pain worth it?

At what cost this dose of chemotherapy? Are the fatigue and weakness worth it?

At what cost life? So much Yes. Monica and Anna are part of my inspiration not just to be alive, but to act like it. Witnessing their choreography unfold is as unpredictable as my MRI results. I lean hard on self-trust during my own health uncertainties, deepened with every decision about whether or not a given choice enriches or depletes my being. Is this dancing in the rain? Is cancer my proverbial storm?

“Don’t cry because it’s over; smile because it happened.”

– Ludwig Jacobowski (Still wondering if I like or loathe this phrase...)

I wonder where dance finds you in your life?

GARDENER’S NOTEBOOK

Water, water everywhere But not enough for potted plants

W

ith recent rains of more than three inches over the last couple of days, you’d think that the last thing on my mind would be having to water anything. But you’d be wrong.

Plants in pots (and I have plenty of them, some ornamental and some tropical and subtropical fruits) don’t get the full benefit of all that water.

Potting soils are, and should be, more porous than any garden soil to maintain good aeration within the confines of a pot. About a one-inch depth of water is needed if you’re going to wet a 12-inchhigh column of potting soil thoroughly.

If a flowerpot is, for example, only six inches high, only a half-inch depth of water would be needed; and so on.

A lot of my potted plants didn’t drink in that three inches of rain that fell over the past couple of days. Some of the plants are shielded from the sky by overhanging house eaves. And the leaves of other plants – excepting amaryllis and calla lily, which have strappy, upright leaves – deflect water that could have fallen into the pot.

If you don’t believe me, tip a potted plant out of its pot following a heavy rain and check how dry the soil is, down deep within the pot. Even easier, purchase an inexpensive moisture meter whose metal probe, when slid into the soil, reports moisture deep down.

water than those more distant. And pots that were shorter or at lower elevation would likewise get more water. So I slid an emitter, which reliably puts out a halfgallon of water per hour, no matter what the incoming water pressure, on the end of each quarter-inch line.

I have a number of lowbush blueberry, lingonberry, hollyhock, carnation and blazing star plants growing in pots four inches and smaller.

I’ll eventually plant them out in the garden.

Until then, the plants need regular watering Snaking quarter-inch tubes to all these pots would create a tangled nightmare.

Enter capillary mat watering: All these smaller pots sit on a mat of absorbent fabric spread over a tray held a couple of inches above a pan of water. Part of the capillary mat dips into the reservoir of water, which gets sucked up into the mat and then sucked up into the potting soil through the drainage holes in each flatbottomed plant pot.

I periodically have to remember to add water to the reservoirs – or rather, “had to,” because I ran a few of those drip tubes into the reservoirs: enough to keep them topped up with water to keep pace with plant use.

– Lee Reich

About a one-inch depth of water is needed if you’re going to wet a 12-inch-high column of potting soil thoroughly.

When I first started gardening, I knew I would eventually move from the cottage I was renting. My miniorchard was in pots and travel-ready.

I kept that “orchard” watered by hand, which wasn’t so bad. The problem was that, in the heat of summer, some plants needed their thirst quenched twice a day, which kept me from leaving my home for more than a few hours. These days, technology has come to the rescue.

The first techno-solution has been drip irrigation. A simple battery-operated timer at a spigot sends out water on a twice-daily schedule to banks of potted plants. Also at the spigot, following the water line right after the timer, are a filter and a pressurereducer. The fittings for wending water through tubes around corners and up into pots are low-pressure fittings; the pressure lowers water pressure to a mere 20 pounds per square inch.

Once the half-inch main line makes its way to a group of potted plants, a quarterinch plastic line (plugged into the main line with, of course, a low-pressure fitting) carries the water up to the ground surface of each pot.

If the water merely exited at this point, pots closer to the water source would be under higher pressure and so get more
