Rebecca Salter, an artist born in 1955 and educated in southwestern England, made an unconventional decision upon completing her university studies to move to Japan in 1979 for a two-year stay - to study with an avant-garde ceramic artist in Kyoto, continuing her involvement in that medium. When informed of the unexpected death of her intended mentor two months before she was scheduled to depart for Japan, she forged ahead with the journey and was able to structure her own studies - remaining in Kyoto for six years. She immersed herself in Japanese life and culture [including mastering reading and writing Japanese] and even exhibited her works with some regularity, gaining a reputation in Kyoto.

I've yet to hear anyone complain that the trouble with musical theatre today is that too many shows are based on greeting cards, but given the success of the empire known as Nunsense, I'm surprised that more composers, lyricists and bookwriters haven't turned to the catalogues of Hallmark for inspiration.

1959 was a heck of a good year for Broadway overtures. The majestic trumpet fanfare and lowdown bump and grind of Gypsy's is generally regarded as the best in musical theatre, but there was also the rousingly rhythmic curtain-raiser to Fiorello! and, my personal favorite, Philip J. Lang's beautiful interpretation of Bob Merrill's music for Take Me Along, which touches on so many moods of the show while continually building the toe-tapping climax of The catchy title tune.
