Sep 10 06: culture notes

Much going on at home, none of which I’ll be discussing here just yet. In the mean time, two things:

  1. High Culture New Yorkers should be aware that tomorrow at Carnegie Hall there will be a free community sing of Mozart’s Requiem, led by the Juilliard Orchestra and Chorus, as part of the 9/11 commemorative events. It’s at 12:30; grab your score (if you have the Bärenreiter edition, so much the better) and come on up. I’ll be onstage, the third tenor from the end, second row from the back.
  2. Pop Culture Ah, Japan. How do we love thee? The blog TV In Japan presents some mesmerizing videos advertising Tarako Spaghetti With Cod Roe. First there were the hypnotic kewpie dolls; then there were the cutie girls singing and dancing to the jingle. Apparently the cutie girls have attained national celebrity, in that way that people and/or memes do over there.

Check ‘em out.
