The Salon Wrap-Up for September 23, 2018: "Furry Friends"

Purity of love for our animals - it's simple! They just want us for our food! claimed Mark as he introduced our Co-Host for the evening, the winner of 2018's "Mama's Next Big Act," Lynda Rodolitz, who gleefully and wonderfully helped us celebrate the theme of "Furry Friends." Steven Ray Watkins was on hand (well, two) to play piano for Lynda, who opened up with what she called her mission statement: "Spread a Little Sunshine" from Pippin, which was sung with gusto and more than a little tongue in cheek. After the break, she continued the charm with the swingingly humorous "Chimp in a Suit." Lynda went through her dating history a bit - "Meek like a lamb, sly as a fox, hung like a horse (it wasn't all bad)" - then wistfully sang a lovely combination of "Once Upon a Time/Hello, Young Lovers." She completed her Act II opening set with "Don't Bug Me," a soaring and trill-filled song sung by the Great Decapitator herself, the Praying Mantis. Lynda artfully went there, in a hilarious manner...I can tell you, don't interrupt a Mantis when she's praying! To complete this furry, fuzzy, fanged and scaly evening, Lynda brought it home (through the pet door) with a touching song about what's truly important - doing the work we're doing no matter what gets in our way, "If I Could've Been" from the musical Working.

As the winner of Mama's Next Big Act, Lynda promises her show "Animal Magnetism" will trot into  Don't Tell Mama's and paw into your heart in February, 2019.

Quick Wrap - Classical Corner 

Cellist Ben Larsen, who is the Artistic Director of the chamber music series "Concerts on the Slope", was on hand to brilliantly play for the Classical Corner with Mark. While he was setting up, Mark introduced the "E minor Cello sonata" by Brahms. A classicist, Brahams did repeats after repeats, but Mark did not chose the repeats; he's played this piece in graduate school, but hasn't touched it since. When rehearsing at home, he even sang the cello part. After Mark explained his history with it, Ben played a bit of the theme, while Mark explained that typically, the piano provides the bass and the harmony to the melody from the cello in most sonatas. Not so with this piece! Instead, the piano takes over at moments to play the theme, while the cello provides some trade-off harmonies and rich bass notes for the pianist to bounce the melodies off of. Rich with texture, this piece trips and soars and roars with some gorgeous tension and beautiful emotions while the added cello interlaces with the piano. Mark also read off some YouTube comments to this piece: "this cello sonata is dank as fuc [sic] homies," "the first few minutes taste like brownies and grapes with whipped cream," and "goddamn, this is a tasty jam." While some of these comments were hilarious, most of them praised the work, including this one: "I bow to you, Johannes Brahms, for such autumnal beauty," so it was a wonderful start to the first Salon of Fall! 

Then, to honor the theme, Mark and Ben performed together the 13th movement of The Carnival of the Animals by Camille Saint-SaĆ«ns "Le cygne" (The Swan). In this, the cellist is the soloist, embodying the grace and flowing beauty of the swan, while the piano is the rippling and ever-changing lake water beneath it. It was all such gorgeous, twinkling and emotional music! A true treat.

Salon Spotlight 

Theater performer and soon-to-debut-her-Cabaret performer Jennifer Bangs was our Salon Spotlight! She is having her NYC cabaret debut this fall at Don't Tell Mama with a monologues-set-with-songs that she wrote, "She Bangs She Bangs: Marriage, Adultery, Texas and Jesus," which is being Directed by Tanya Moberly. After Steven Ray Watkins piano introduced our Spotlight with piano and vocals on the title song, Jennifer took to the stage to sing the flirty and fun "A Wink and a Smile" with a lovely mezzo soprano. After some story-telling about the search for a husband, she went into "The Next Ten Minutes" - featuring lovely harmonies by Steven - from the musical The Last Five Years. Reminiscing about her early days as a mother, she then went into her original song, "Van Nuys," which was full of emotion and connective power.

"She Bangs She Bangs" will debut on Friday, October 19th at 9:30pm, Monday, November 12th at 7pm, and Saturday, December 1st at 5pm, all at Don't Tell Mama, 345 W. 46th Street, NYC. With Steven Ray Watkins on piano, Dan Fabricatore on bass, Don Kelly on Drums. Directed by Tanya Moberly. $20 cover, 2 drink minimum.

The Salon Wrap-Up for September 16th, 2018: "The Secret of Life"


After a two-week hiatus, Salon has returned! To kick us off for the fall, the warm and lovely Barb Malley was our co-host for the very first time. The theme for the evening was "The Secret of Life," and, given Barb's background (she has been both a nun and a psychologist, as well as a performer!), she certainly has some life experience to contribute on this topic. Barb started things off with an appropriately philosophical take on the song Once Upon a Time (Charles Strouse and Lee Adams).

Barb is a MAC Award winner (2016) in the musical comedy category, and her upcoming show at Don't Tell Mama combines two important themes in her personal and performing life: "From Brooklyn to Broadway" opens Thursday, October 4th.  With that in mind, Barb put together a set of songs chronicling the ups and downs of life, Her first selection was Look to the Rainbow (Burton Lane and Yip Harburg, Finian's Rainbow), honoring her Irish heritage. After that song, Barb felt that the Irish were preparing us for something good, so to illustrate, she chose Something's Coming (Leonard Bernstein, Stephen Sondheim) from West Side Story. She closed her set with a charming and hilarious Brooklyn love story, He Had Refinement (Arthur Schwartz, Dorothy Fields, A Tree Grows in Brooklyn).

To close the show, Barb finally supplied an answer to the evening's riddle, singing James Taylor's The Secret of Life.

 Quick Wrap - Classical Corner 

For tonight's Classical Corner, Mark Janas introduced a piece that he says saved his life when he was in college.  The piece is Kreisleriana, Op.16, a fantasy in eight movements, by Robert Schumann. Schumann wrote this piece in only four days, in 1838, and it is considered one of his best works. (Indeed, Schumann sometimes referred to it as his favorite composition.) Kreisleriana (the title is taken from the name of a character in ETA Hoffmann's stories) is a highly dramatic piece which reflects two sides of Schumann's personality: Florestan, the impulsive side, and Eusabius, the introspective, gentle side.
Mark played the second and third movements for us tonight. One of the chief characteristics of this work is the back and forth between the two "characters."  The second movement begins lyrically, and then alternates with a fast, driving, and chromatically complex theme.These two contrasting natures dominate the fabric of Kreisleriana.
