AMERICAN MARIACHI, currently playing at the Old Globe, is a brightly engaging and sentimental play that tugs at your heartstrings.

Orange County Piano Teacher Prepares Local Students For Competitions
by BWW News Desk - March 29, 2018
Sending children to piano lessons has been a classic parenting tactic for generations. Even today, it is encouraged to provide piano lessons to a bright, young mind. Learning music benefits youngsters and the lessons they learn through piano practice is used later in life. Developing the discipline to learn and practice music gives children confidence, and builds emotional and social realization. Doris Chiang, an Orange County Piano teacher, is very aware of these benefits and even pushes them to a higher level.

BWW Review: SAN DIEGO SYMPHONY PRESENTS JAZZ AT LINCOLN CENTER ORCHESTRA WITH CHICK COREA at San Diego Jacobs Music Center
by Ron Bierman - March 28, 2018
The Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra with pianist Chick Corea performed this past weekend as part of the San Diego Symphony's jazz series. When I last heard the band two years ago without Corea, I thought it was in a bit of a rut, and I can see why Wynton Marsalis, its usual leader, chose the pianist to stand in for him while he's on a composing break. Corea uses harmony and rhythm in a modern style very different from that of the Swing Era big bands like Ellington's that Marsalis had in mind when he formed the orchestra in 1988. He must have seen Corea as a refreshing addition at a first concert with him in 2011. In any event, 'rut' was no longer an appropriate term for many of the intricate arrangements premiered at that concert and reprised here last Saturday.
