O

ctober begins, and with it not only Halloween, but also another gaudy and outré seasonal observance known as the O-Positive (O+) Festival. Now into double-digit years, O+ is Kingston’s weekend-long music, art and wellness street bazaar in which artists exchange their gifts for health services, from the most essential – dentistry, for example, often a ship-sinking concern among independent “creatives” (Yuck. Did I just call them that? That’s the corporate-approved term that, along with the dismissive and belittling generality “content,” was used to devalue art as a commodity, to funnel all proceeds to the channelowners and to exploit the very real truth that we’d probably do it even if you don’t pay us, so shame on me) – or, if your teeth are okay, perhaps a luxurious gong bath or a chair massage before your set. O+’s smart people always suggest a different thematic overlay, something that might, in a loose way, unify the season’s hip circus of cool offerings. This year they seized on the ambiguities of the symbol “X,” a reference to the venerable festival’s

tenth anniversary and to the resonance and volatility of X in the gender wars, among other things. I can’t help seeing X, additionally, as a thing that happens to uninsured people. Of course, bands kind of know their tunes already and will have a harder (though not impossible) time of responding to a thematic suggestion from one festival. Where the chosen theme really gets its play is with the visual art and street-level action, and O+ is traditionally a muralists’ watershed, the yield of which makes Kingston infinitely more interesting year-round, with acknowledgments granted to the grumblings of the few who prefer the fading-paint brands of late-19th-century furniture stores on brick façades: a perfectly defensible aesthetic. X or not (and no, John, Exene and Billy are not reuniting in Kingston), this year’s music lineup is an absolute bear. It was already strong before the late addition of headliner Dave Longstreth, whose main project, Dirty Projectors, may be the most challenging and musically substantive rock band of the last two decades – love or hate, and they do pose

a rather binary proposition. There’s early DP: Longstreth’s insane AD(I)H(Y)D bedroom epics. There’s peak period DP: the skittish rock masterpiece Bitte Orca, the high-concept EP collaboration with Bjork called Mt. Wittenberg Orca and the lovely and awkward Swing Lo Magellan, all of which share in Longstreth’s oblique and dense environmentalist critique. And then there’s recent DP: the self-titled sad cowboy comeback record of 2016 and 2018’s return to form, Lamp Lit Prose. Dave L o n g s t r e t h’s likeness should be on the Mount Rushmore of “Interesting,” perhaps next to Harry Partch. I am shocked how easily some smart people dismiss him just because his basic musical setting is “discomfiting” and rather brainy. Another headliner and big score !!! (Chk Chk Chk), the California, now New York band is often described as “dancepunk,” and, man, is that apt. Wickedbut-earthy electro grooves, smart punk snot and lots of dead-on and witty social critique: They literally sound like an ideal fusion of the Clash and Big Audio Dynamite, with a lot of other coolness interceding. Experimentalist songwriter

If you have never been to an O+ before, be prepared for a revelation, a brief interval of civic transformation that will make you proud to be from around here.

Elvis Perkins tops the banner as well: an artist who oversees a very successful and organic integration of retro folk/rock songwriting and pure sound. Other notable scores includes Brooklynscene mainstay guitarist, songwriter and producer Sam Cohen (Yellowbirds et cetera), the Mystical Arts of Tibet (at UPAC, which is, like so much of Broadway now, in on O+), the Aron Dyer (Buke and Gase) -led Dronechoir and more than I could possibly list (over 40 acts) in the space left to me here. O+’s website is, as ever, a model of elegant and accessible webcraft. Use it to study the lineup and plot your own course through the madness. If you have never been to an O+ before, be prepared for a revelation, a brief interval of civic transformation that will make you proud to be from around here. Three-day passes cost a flat $50, available online and on-site. It’s a ridiculous deal. – John Burdick O+ Festival October 11-13 $50 Kingston https://opositivefestival.org/kingston

On his latest, Let It Slide, Woodstock’s surreal cabaret ringleader ups his game once again as a singer and a writer, leading to a delightful blip-pop record that somehow manages to make sense in the barns of Woodstock and the basements of Brooklyn.

KATHLEEN BECKMANN, MUSIC DIRECTOR

The music of Joni Mitchell is both timeless and inextricably tied to its period and place: the California vibe of the ’60 and ’70s, from which the artist herself kept a cautious distance. Her literate, musically expansive work

5 has never really waned in resonance and popularity. It has, honestly, never seemed to age at all. The only problem with paying tribute to it is the extreme challenge of the music itself. Perfect job, then, for bassist and producer Scott Petito, who has helmed a lot of the very high-end tribute shows to grace the region in the last few years, from fastidiously precise readings of the White Album to large-cast homages to Steely Dan and Traffic. He has a taste for the tricky stuff. The band for this show is, of course, well-stocked with excellent female vocalists, and also with the kind of slick, jazz-fluent players that Joni called on again and again – especially in her landmark records of the early-to-middle ’70s. Performers include Leslie Ritter, Katherine Ottosen, Hannah Otten, Danny Blume, Joe Magistro, Rachel Z. and Bill Harris. There is no cover at the Falcon, but if you have been here before, you know just what to do when the hat is passed.

Bard to host second annual John Cage Mycology Weekend Besides being among the most revolutionary of 20th-century classical composers, John Cage was also an avid amateur mycologist. His interest in mushrooms was literally born out of hunger during the Depression, when he would take the specimens he’d foraged near his home in Carmel, California to the local library to see if they were edible. He spent much of the rest of his life collecting and studying fungi, even supplying upscale New York restaurants such as the Four Seasons with mushrooms he gathered in the local (reachable by subway) wild. In 1959, Cage taught a course on mushroom identification at the New School; some of the Fluxus artists were among his students. Some of that group, under Cage’s leadership, founded the New York Mycological Society. On a European trip that same year, Cage somehow ended up a contestant on a notoriously difficult Italian game show and picked mushrooms as his topic of special expertise. By being able to rattle off the names of 24 species of white-spored Agaricus, he won the top prize of five million lire (then about $10,000). With his winnings he bought a new piano for himself and a Volkswagen bus for the dance company just being started by his artistic collaborator and Significant Other, Merce Cunningham. It was through Cunningham’s role as executor of the composer’s estate that much of his archives ended up at Bard College as the John Cage Trust. (His Mushroom Book, a 1972 collaboration with mycologist Alexander H. Smith and artist Lois Long, is now in the hands of the Museum of Modern Art, and his fungi collection at the University of California at Santa Cruz.) But Cage had plenty of other connections to the Hudson Valley, including the Woodstock premiere of his most notorious composition, 4’ 33�, and a long residence at Stony Point in Rockland County. The Mid-Hudson Mycology Association, our local affiliate of the New York Mycological Society, keeps Cage’s mycophilic legacy alive by naming its annual conference the John Cage Mycology Weekend. This year’s gathering is happening at Bard College on October 19 and 20. Saturday’s schedule includes a Morning Mushroom Foray at 9:30 a.m. at Montgomery Place, led by David and Susan Rose and Tim Graham. There will be a catered picnic lunch at noon, and a sociable mushroom identification session beginning at 1 p.m. A more formal

Her ethos of empathy, compassion and unflinching respect for all – leading to her work with the United Nations, chairing the commission that drafted the Universal Declaration of Human Rights – was shaped in large part by her early experiences in this small, close-knit community. The Village of Tivoli will dedicate this weekend to honoring Eleanor Roosevelt’s contributions with a series of special events, centering on the permanent outdoor installation of a bronze bust of the First Lady. All events are free and open to the public.

Clare Beams wins Bard Fiction Prize Bard’s prestigious fiction prize has been awarded to the author Clare Beams, on the strength of her 2016 collection of short stories We Show What We Have Learned. “The nine stories in Clare Beams’ debut collection,” writes the Bard Fiction Prize Committee, “range from factual, historical settings and characters to eerily fantastical ones, displaying a startling depth and an epic scale of imagination. While the characters, and the situations they find themselves in, are sometimes surreal, their psychologies are always absolutely real – fully, compassionately drawn.” Beams’ residency at Bard College is for the fall 2020 semester, during which time she will continue her writing and meet informally with students. Beams will give a public reading at Bard in spring 2020. For more information on Clare Beams and the Bard Fiction Prize, visit www. bard.edu/bfp.

Slavery as an RPG Co - creators bring explosive Obie-winner Underground Railroad Game to Bard

L

ast seen at Bard’s Richard B. Fisher Center for the Performing Arts in the 2016 SummerScape production of Demolishing Everything with Amazing Speed, Bessie Award-winning actress/playwright Jennifer Kidwell returns to the campus October 9 through 12 to revive the Ars Nova production of her muchlauded Underground Railroad Game, along with the work’s co-creator, Scott R. Sheppard. Directed by Taibi Magar, the lacerating comedy is being presented as part of Bard’s Hannah Arendt Center’s annual conference, whose focus this year is “Racism and Antisemitism.”

By all accounts, Underground Railroad Game is an electrifying, discomfiting and transcendent piece of stagecraft. Its premiere production Off-Broadway copped the 2017 Obie Award for Best New American Theatre Work, along with rave reviews from New York City critics. It’s a pointed and hilarious look at the legacy of slavery in America and how that legacy influences contemporary dialogues around race: a most pertinent topic for this 400th-anniversary year of the arrival of the first enslaved peoples from Africa to this continent. The premise of the play was inspired by an actual classroom roleplaying game

that Sheppard experienced as a child in Hanover, Pennsylvania, in which middle schoolers were divided up into Union and Confederate battalions tasked with either retrieving or freeing black dolls representing escaped slaves. Kidwell and Sheppard portray teachers conducting the game, contemporary interracial lovers, Civil War-era historical figures and a variety of other characters in eight scenes. Underground Railroad Game will be performed at 7:30 p.m. Wednesday, October 9 through Saturday, October 12 in the Fisher Center’s LUMA Theater. Ticket prices start at $25; to reserve, or for additional information, call the box office at (845) 758-7900 or visit https:// fishercenter.bard.edu.

orld music is usually presented onstage by professional musicians. The monks of the Drepung Loseling Monastery, set to perform at the Ulster Performing Arts Center on October 13, fall into a different category: genuine monks who are taking time off from a lifelong devotion to contemplation and study to participate in a world tour. By sharing their cultural traditions, they hope to be able to make some small contribution toward world peace and greater awareness of the Tibetan situation. At the end of each tour the monks return to Drepung Loseling Monastery – originally founded in Tibet, now reestablished in exile in southern India since the Chinese takeover – to continue their vocation. Robed in magnificent costumes and playing traditional Tibetan instruments, the Loseling monks perform ancient temple music and dance believed to generate energies conducive to world healing. The program features authentic temple dances and multiphonic chanting. This concert is a rare opportunity for a look into Tibetan monastic culture, as these pieces are rarely seen outside the monasteries in which they are performed. In addition to the Sunday performance, from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. each day from Wednesday, October 9 through Saturday, October 12, the monks will create a sand mandala at UPAC.

– that charmed its way onto the Ten Best lists of dozens of top film critics, largely on the strength of the songs composed by its two lead actors, Glen Hansard and Markéta Irglová. One of those songs, “Falling Slowly,” won an Oscar, and the soundtrack album for Once proved such a success that it was inevitable that a stage version would follow. That musical opened Off-Broadway in 2011 to win the New York Drama Critics’ Circle Award for Best Musical, moving to Broadway the following year and winning eight Tonys – again including Best Musical. The album won a Grammy. Enthusiasm for Once hasn’t waned since, and the third national tour of the Broadway production is now underway. J.

We’re all familiar with one of the earliest recorded uses in English – by the witches in Macbeth – of the lovely 16 th-century word hurlyburly, meaning an uproar or tumult. Though we get the sense of things being randomly thrown around from the “hurly” half, the official etymology doesn’t give us much to go on for the “burly” part, except possibly as a worn-down form of the phrase “hurling and burling,” which apparently once signified creating chaos. But my sometimes-accurate linguistic radar points toward “burly” being related somehow to the Spanish verb burlar, which means to mock or outwit someone. As I understand it, the noun form, burlería, carries a secondary meaning of making a racket. And that brings us to the perhapsnot-so-coincidentally-similar-sounding bulerías: the saucy, raucous, insistent, arguably mocking 12-count rhythm that is the heart of flamenco – as essential to the Spanish artform as saudade is to Brazilian bossa nova. Fortunately for fans and wannabe practitioners, it’s a little easier to define. It’s also not as impossible to master as it might appear at first listening, according to Anna Librada Mazo Georges, who grew up in New Paltz and returned to the region with a mission to make flamenco accessible to the masses, and even a participatory celebration, the way it has always been in Spain. The maiden voyage of the Hudson Valley Flamenco Festival took place last year, managing to fill nearly all the seats at the Rosendale Theatre. So, you’ll want to reserve yours right now for the second annual performance of The People’s Flamenco, getting underway at the same venue on Saturday, October 12 at 4:30 p.m. Tickets cost $20 in advance, available at www.unisonarts.org/event/hudsonvalley-flamenco-festival-2019, and $22 at the door if there are any left.

and dancers Elisabet Torras and Anna Librada Mazo Georges herself. Deirdre Towers is the choreographer (although flamenco without some improv on the dancer’s part, spurred on by the cante established by the singer, is almost unthinkable). Part Two of the festival happens on Sunday at Unison Arts in New Paltz, and this is the part where public participation comes in. “This year we are excited to add our workshop series to really emphasize that flamenco isn’t just about performing; it is about creating art in collaboration,” says Mazo Georges. From 11:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. there are introductory and intermediate workshops for both musicians and dancers. Guitar and percussion workshops, taught by Jared Newman and Dierdre Towers, will teach basic chord progressions typically used in flamenco performances as well as the complex bulerías rhythm. “Clapping is one of the main parts of flamenco, so if you don’t play an instrument, you’ll still be able to participate!” say the organizers. Barbara Martinez and Mazo Georges will teach the “Bulerías for Everyone” dance workshops, meant to demystify flamenco for the newbie. At 5:30, when all the educational hurlyburly’s done, both participants and new arrivals will be treated to a private party with tapas and a “flamenco jam” where students can try out their newly acquired skills. Fees for Sunday’s offerings range from $20 for the evening Fiesta Flamenca only to $35 for one Level 1 workshop, $65 for Level 1 & 2 workshops in either guitar/percussion or dance and $80 for the Full Flamenco Experience. Even if you’re a wallflower, you can come on out, learn to clap with purpose and meaning and propel these dancers to a triumphal evening. All levels and students over 12 years old are welcome.

Cry It Out now playing at Shadowland Stages

Shadowland Stages in Ellenville presents an October production of Cry It Out, a play by the highly decorated playwright and Kingston native Molly Smith Metzler, whose Elemeno Pea was a highlight of Shadowland’s 2018 season. In Cry It Out, Jessie and Lina are new mothers and new neighbors who come from very different worlds. Every day, as their babies nap,

they meet for coffee in the space between their backyards, within reach of their baby monitors. Their growing relationship is punctured when a stranger from the mansion overlooking their homes asks if they would include his wife, a new mom who’s having a tough time, in the kaffeeklatsch. Molly Smith Meltzer is an alumna of the Ars Nova Play Group, the Dorothy Strelsin New American Writers’ Group at Primary Stages and the Cherry Lane Mentor Project. In television, Metzler has written for Casual (Hulu), Orange Is the New Black (Netflix) and Codes of Conduct (HBO), and is currently a writer/ producer on Shameless (Showtime). Cry It Out is directed by Brendan Burke, who is marking his 15th year as Shadowland’s artistic director. The production runs until October 20, with shows Thursday through Saturday at 8 p.m. ($39) and Sundays at 2 p.m. ($34).

The NAO now And the dark side of night

W

e’d all agree that late summer and early autumn have been very pleasant this year. But it may not last. That’s because of the North American Oscillation. Meteorologists abbreviate that the NAO. You may never have heard of it. Other big weather-influencers like El Niño and La Niña have gotten far more press, so that most people know that El Niño is a warming of eastern Pacific tropical waters that creates far-reaching consequences for our weather. On a year like this one, without a pronounced El Niño (Pacific Ocean conditions are currently pretty neutral), we’d expect a normal winter, or maybe a slightly cold one. The North American Oscillation hasn’t gotten general media coverage. But most weather experts now believe that it’s right up there with El Niño in influencing our winter weather, and determining whether we get hard or easy winters – or, more commonly, whether a particular period of time (several weeks in a row, or a couple of months) is warm or cold. The NAO is simple to understand. A permanent high-pressure area pretty much sits over the Azores islands, west of Portugal. And a low-pressure area hovers over Greenland and Iceland, which gives them their chronic dismal weather. But sometimes that Azores high is stronger at the same time that the Greenland low is deeper, and this is called a positive NAO. It tends to channel warm South Atlantic air up the East Coast to us, and gives us mild winter conditions. Such a positive NAO existed during some of our warmest, least-snowy winters. But right now, a negative NAO has set up, and it’s predicted to last at least the next two months. This means that the Azores high is weak, and the Greenland low is weak, too. This setup typically lets cold polar air pour into the Northeast, and can set the stage for early snowstorms. So, whether you know it or not, you don’t like a negative NAO one bit. (It is good for the ski resorts, however.) Nobody knows why this oscillation occurs – only that it steers our weather, and provides

weeks of either agony or ecstasy. You can go on the web, look at the NOAA climate prediction center and see what meteorologists are saying about the current and projected changes to the NAO. Meanwhile, this month of October also features the final few weeks of generally clear skies and abundant sunshine. For the past five months, our skies have averaged 66 percent cloud-free conditions, hence lots of sunlight. But climatologically, our region typically changes dramatically around November 1. From that week through April and much of May, our skies stay two-thirds cloudy. Combined with the annual minimum hours of daily sunlight during November to February, we are about to get a double whammy of cloudy skies and long nights. We will be starved for light. About 15 percent of us suffer from Seasonal Affective Disorder, and go into significant depression due to the lack of light. Many more experience lesser effects of diminished joy. So be sure to step outdoors and get the antidote: sunshine, whenever it’s out. Expose your skin to the full extent possible. You might even talk to your doctor about purchasing a light box. Natural vitamin D is important, too, and (unlike the SAD antidote light) can’t be gained by sunlight through windows. You have to hang out in front of an open window, or outdoors. Maybe even maybe head south for a week or two if you can, during that November-to-February period. But be aware of what’s about to happen. These are our final couple of weeks before the annual darkness overspreads our beloved region. – Bob Berman Want to know more?

Marist Poll directors Dr. Lee M. Miringoff and Dr. Barbara L. Carvalho, who have been at the fore of the survey research industry for many years, oversaw the development of the project. Their priority was to address some of the most misunderstood aspects of polling. “The more consumers of polls understand

Kristin Kimball to read new memoir Good Husbandry in Rhinebeck In 2002, at age 31, Harvard grad Kristin Kimball was living in Manhattan, working as a freelance writer. Gardening hadn’t ever been part of her skillset. But in pursuit of an interview with Mark Guenther, whom she pegged at the time as “a wingnut farmer,� Kimball took up his challenge first to hoe broccoli and then to help slaughter a hog. She was surprised how deeply the hands-on work appealed to her, soon concluding that “Humans are hard-wired to be agrarians.� She also fell quickly in love with the “wingnut,� who had grown up in New Paltz, the son of environmental educator Ann Guenther and “Farmer Dan� Guenther, co-founder of several local CSAs including Phillies Bridge Farm in Gardiner, the Poughkeepsie Farm Project and Brook Farm in New Paltz. Kimball left city life behind and, with her new husband (who adopted her surname), took on the immense job of starting and running a 500-acre CSA near Lake Champlain, known as Essex Farm. It currently comprises 1,100 acres and is managed with horsedrawn farm machinery rather than tractors, using no chemical pesticides or fertilizers. The goal was to supply its 150 members year-round (up to 200 now) with ingredients for three organic meals a day – not just vegetables, salad greens, herbs and a few fruits, but also grains, flour, beans, eggs, meat, dairy, honey, maple syrup, cut flowers, even soap. Kimball calls it “the world’s first full-diet CSA, as far as we know.� The work was ceaseless, backbreaking and deeply rewarding, as Kimball recorded in her 2010 memoir of Essex Farm’s first year, The Dirty Life. Since then, the couple have had two daughters, raising the stakes of succeeding at their risky endeavor. A “biblically bad� year of intense financial pressure, spurred by consistently adverse weather and Mark suffering a leg injury, forced the couple to reevaluate their marriage along with their commitment to the project, particularly with regard to
