Pride and Prejudice – It is a work that closely follows the original novel, and the dialogue is lifted directly from Austen’s text. The result, in PRC’s hands under the direction of guest director Timothy Douglas, is a work that reflects, as much as Austen does herself, the times and mores of England in the early 1800s.

Duke's Collegium Musicum – Duke University's Collegium Musicum has been on a roll this season. Under the leadership of Tom Moore, the small vocal ensemble has continued to explore the byways of cultural history, offering last fall a remarkable program of sacred music by Salamone Rossi and, for its spring concert, an evening of English renaissance music that brought considerable joy to its audience.

Weilerstein Trio – This family trio, made up of Donald Weilserstein, violin; Alisa Weilerstein, cello; and Vivian Hornik Weilerstein, piano, presented a program of works by Schumann, Dvořák and Janáček that represented both the greatness of these composers and these players' many musical strengths. Full review

Ahn Trio – This concert was basically a performance of the trio’s latest CD, Lullaby for My Favorite Insominiac – a recording that includes many world premieres.  Full review
