Sorrell, who "forges a vibrant, life-affirming approach to the re-making of early music," according to BBC Music Magazine, leads Principal Cello Andrew Shulman, Cello Trevor Handy, Principal Violin II Josefina Vergara and Flute Sandy Hughes in Vivaldi's Concerto grosso in B minor (arr. Sorrell) after Sonata in B minor, Op. 1, No. 12, RV 63 ("La Follia"), and Concerto in G minor for Two Cellos, RV 531; Bach's Brandenburg Concerto No. 5 in D major, BWV 1050; and Boccherini's "Fandango" (arr.

Elyse Walker hosted her ninth annual Pink Party and fashion show at Santa Monica Airport Friday night with help from Anne Hathaway. “When they told me that Annie would like to help with the event this year, I said, 'Sure, who's Annie?'” said Walker. It seems that Hathaway's good friend was treated at the Women's Cancer Center at Cedars Sinai, for which the event raised $1.7 million. “Elyse is a tireless champion,” said Hathaway. “She's…what's the Yiddish word for a female mensch?” she asked her husband Adam Shulman. “She's a mensch-ette.”
