The Floating World: 13 Views of the Dance Company on Tour Japanese woodblock prints (Ukiyo-e) depict images that evoke moments of pleasure and respite from everyday toils.

Choreographer John Malashock and UCSD-based filmmaker/projection artist Tara Knight co-conceived the work, including a four-sided video environment enveloping performers and audience. Bay Area 'avant' cellist, Zoe Keating provides the musical score and fashion icon Zandra Rhodes designed the costumes.

	An Evening with Robert Pinsky - Point Loma Writer’s Symposium by the Sea 2017 Former Poet Laureate Robert Pinsky describes himself as a "composer" who considers poetry to be first and foremost a vocal art, and his work seeks to blur the distinctions between language and music by emphasizing the rhythms and innate physicality of recited verse in a jazz context. In this performance for the 22nd Writer's Symposium by the Sea at Point Loma Nazarene University, Pinsky's reading is accompanied by a talented trio of PLNU students. The music - a blend of rehearsed and improvised - employs a variety of jazz styles, sometimes sympathetic and sometimes in playful counterpoint, but always responsive to the poet's distinctive voice.
	Dvořák's Serenade in D Minor - La Jolla Music Society's SummerFest 2017 The serenade is a venerable 18th-century form as practiced by Haydn, Mozart and others.

The result is a piece of good-spirited, sunny music that reflects Dvořák's own optimistic personality. Recorded on 08/20/2017.
