CARAMANICA Recorded at a barn in upstate New York with just the alto saxophonist Darius Jones and the cellist Marika Hughes accompanying her, Fay Victor's new album is a direct-delivery mechanism for her inimitable vocal style, which wriggles happily in the space between Off Off Broadway theatricality and casual transcendence.
|
|
Calvin Harris isn't the only dance music star who is as famous as Sheeran, obviously, but gigantic acts like Skrillex, Diplo, or the Chainsmokers, still fail the pint-test; they are distant, unreachable, and, well, unlikeable, because for all their flashiness and theatricality, they lack a kind of basic humanity.
|
|

|
|
Its theatricality comes across as forced and curiously inert on screen, at close range to the actors, and its conversations about race and policing in particular feel stilted and contrived — like pontifications snatched from national conversations and simply repeated by the characters, rather than expressions of what they deeply feel and think.
|
|
In his adaptation of Ntozake Shange's 1976 self-described choreopoem "For Colored Girls Who Have Considered Suicide/When the Rainbow Is Enuf," Tyler Perry brought together an all-star cast (including Kerry Washington, Phylicia Rashad and Anika Noni Rose) and retained much of the theatricality of the play, which weaves together monologues and movement.

Male acts, overwhelmingly, have not kept up, lagging behind in the theatricality and imagination stakes (Justin Timberlake's attempt to redefine himself earlier this year fell amazingly short), and while it's important that pop remains the highly visible, musical platform where women can thrive, it is interesting to consider what men who are willing to embrace the genre at its most visual, creative, and immersive might also do.

Battle spectacle and Korean national pride are the order of the day in Ryoo Seung-wan's "The Battleship Island," a heated account of the mining operation on Hashima Island off the coast of Nagasaki in Japan that forcibly conscripted thousands of Koreans (and Chinese) in World War II.
