This Weekend's ARTS TIX 1/2 Price Ticket Sales
Baroque Splendor
The Chamber Music Ensemble Camarada
at St. Paul 's Cathedral (Uptown)
In Bach's "D minor IBWV 1060," disparate tones of violin and flute dance and weave around each other in melancholic and serene adagio, surrounded by conflict and harmony in the urgent outer movements. Next is the incomparable voice of
the solo cello in Bach's optimistic, soaring "Suite No. 3 in C Major." Vivaldi uses fluttering trills of the flute to bring us the song of the goldfinch in "Il Gardellino." Was Beethoven listening to Händel's "Sonata in F Major" when he
declared him "the greatest composer who has ever lived"? In the "Sixieme Order," Couperin uses the harpsichord to spin tales of French country life: reapers, lovelorn sighs, chirping birds, mysterious barricades, and those village pests,
the gossip and the fly. Hinting at the simpler textures of the classical style around the corner is the concerto in E minor by Telemann.

Fiddler on the Roof
Welk Resort Theatre (Escondido)
Winner of the Tony Award for Best Musical, "Fiddler on the Roof" is one of the most heralded musicals of all-time. Tevye is an indomitable hard-luck dairyman living in the quaint Russian village of Anatevka in 1905. Oppressed and
overworked, Tevye is lovable for his cheerful courage in the face of his troubles--which include his poverty, his sharp-tongued wife, and his three daughters of marriageable age for whom he can provide no dowries. Possessing one of the
greatest Broadway scores, this beloved musical includes such songs as "If I were a Rich Man," "Matchmaker, Matchmaker," and "Sunrise, Sunset." Funny and wonderful, exuberant and touching, this show glows with magic!
Saturday 8:00pm - $28.00
Happy Endings Are Extra
Diversionary Theatre (University Heights)
Note: This play contains adult situations and nudity.
A lyrical and sensual exploration of sexual identity, set against the backdrop of Cape Town's unsleeping world of massage parlours, boys for rent and sex for cash. The play explores the relationship between Gabriel, a bisexual man, and
Chantelle, his fiancee. Chantelle pretends to be unconcerned by Gabriel's sexual interests, but then he meets Chris, an underage rent-boy and falls in love with him. This mature, considered play deftly toys with its audience, allowing the
viewer to be both compromised and affected by the desires and the sharp, confounding shifts in perspective and emotion that the play evokes.

Noise at the Library: Invocations and Evocations
at Athenaeum Music and Arts Library (La Jolla)
The classic graphic-score composition "December, 1952" by Earle Brown sets the stage for three open form works from the late 1970s, Michael Nyman's "Bell Set No. 1," a minimalist take on church bell change-ringing, John Cage's "Inlets
for amplified conch shells," and Stuart Saunders Smith's deconstructed pop song "Notebook." Two works by celebrated composer and Bang On A Can clarinetist Evan Ziporyn bring a cross-cultural perspective to the evocation of the natural
world through music: the Balinese-inspired "Fragrant Forest for solo piano," and the brand-new virtuoso flute solo "Speak At-man!" meant to evoke the Hindu universal consciousness 'atman.' Rounding out the program is Charles Amirkhanian's
raucous text-sound "Church Car" and Alvin Lucier's meditative "Silver Streetcar for the Orchestra for solo percussion." There is a pre-concert chat at 2:30pm.
Sunday 3:00pm - $11.00
