Though it's been five years since Sarah Brightman has released a studio album - 2013's Classical chart- topper Dreamchaser - the world's best-selling soprano has hardly been idle. Not only did Brightman perform over 100 concerts on five continents to support Dreamchaser, she also brought her Gala - An Evening with Sarah Brightman tour to Asia and Mexico in 2016 and the 22-date Royal Christmas Gala tour to Europe in 2017. For both, she performed songs from her most-beloved albums - Timeless, Eden, and La Luna, and the multi-platinum soundtrack to Andrew Lloyd Webber's Phantom of the Opera, which celebrated its 30th anniversary on Broadway in 2018. Webber was inspired to write the role of Christine Daaefor Brightman - who was already well-known after releasing several hit singles as a solo artist - upon seeing her standout performance as Jemima in the original London cast of Cats. After great success on the musical stage,...

FX's critically acclaimed series Fargo (TV) testifies to the adage that lightening can, in fact, strike twice. And it has. Based on Joel and Ethan Coen's 1996 film of the same name, the crime drama and dark comedy was created and written by Noah Hawley and endorsed by the Oscar-winning brothers who served as executive producers on the show. When Time Magazine penned it as "one of the ten best shows of 2014," it became evident that the ten-episode limited series had set a higher bar for an already escalating standard in series television. Like the film, it was the true story that really wasn't, and actor Billy Bob Thornton wanted in. He joined a stellar cast of series regulars that included Martin Freeman, Colin Hanks and Allison Tolman, along with an impressive assortment of supporting actors like Adam Goldberg, Oliver Platt, Jordan Peele, Keith Carradine, and Kate Walsh, all of...

Fargo Season 1, Episode 9 “A Fox, a Rabbit, and a Cabbage”
Written by Noah Hawley
Directed by Matt Shakman
Season finale airs Tuesday, 6/17 at 10pm Et on FX
In a world where the devil runs amok around America, killing dentists and mobsters, scaring little children and old men alike, Lester Nygaard is the most evil presence around. It’s taken Fargo awhile to build to this – nine hours, exactly – but it finally comes to light, in an hour where Lester’s pride refuses to let him walk away and enjoy his spoils. It’s not enough to be recognized and assisted by the devil, not for ol’ Lester, who walks up to Lorne Malvo in a Las Vegas hotel bar and insists he knows who he is. After repeated, obvious attempts by Lorne not to reveal such a truth (after all, six months of work was on the line), Lorne asks Lester a very,...

Certain truths were revealed this week, by very different methods. Here's Michael's review of the latest Fargo episode...
Review
This review contains spoilers
1.5 The Six Ungraspables
All drama, indeed all human interaction, relies upon the exchange of information. It’s a phenomenon so ubiquitous that it takes place all the time without the exchangers even being aware that it is going on. Unless, of course, the information itself is significant. It’s important for dramatists as human beings, uniquely in the world, use stories as a means of information exchange. Narratives are a brilliant device for these purposes as they are excellent at freighting seemingly inconsequential details with a surfeit of meaning.
The Six Ungraspables toyed with this idea of the exchange of information and the path it took from one person to another. It worked through several layers, from the straightforward passage of information to the telling of unwitting truths.

Fargo Season 1, Episode 5 “The Six Ungraspables”
Written by Noah Hawley
Directed by Colin Bucksey
Airs Tuesdays at 10pm Et on FX
Like many of the episodes preceding it, “The Six Ungraspables” is titled after a Buddhist koan, this one written by the great Zen master Yunmen Wenyan. At their heart, koans are a series of questions that test a Buddhist’s students progress, philosophic puzzles that allow us to work towards the ultimate goals of Buddhism: enlightenment and nirvana. In this week’s episode of Fargo, those tests are placed right in front of Molly and Gus: and in two important moments for the show, represent to us just why these two people are the ‘heroes’ of this particular world.
On a more surface level, “The Six Ungraspables” represents a major push forward with the season’s story: Molly is breathing down Lester’s neck, and Gus is getting more...

London -- The International Council of Creators of Music (CIAM), part of the global authors' rights body CISAC, has backed legal moves against YouTube/Google in Germany.
Legal proceedings are due to take place at the district court of civil law in Hamburg, following a complaint of violations of copyright and master rights in relation to user-generated content on YouTube. German composer Frank Peterson filed the lawsuit in April, claiming that his music videos and other audiovisual repertoire were used illegally on the site.
In addition to this claim under German civil law, authors, artists and independent publishers and labels have brought a charge before the public prosecutor's office in Hamburg against the directors of Google, accusing them of continuing commercial infringements of authors' rights, copyright, moral rights and performance and master rights.
In a statement, Ciam said that it "welcomes and wholeheartedly supports these actions by authors in Germany,...
