Spokesman.com: "Hailstork’s 'Fanfare' is a skillfully written Icebreaker that provided members of the brass section plenty of opportunity to display their considerable chops."
Adolphus Hailstork The Spokesman-Review Spokane, Washington September 20, 2021 By Larry Lapidus For The Spokesman-Review At a point when it still appeared possible that the Spokane Symphony might be able to start its season in September 2020, music director James Lowe considered programming the Symphony No. 2 of Gustav Mahler, the “Resurrection” Symphony, for the inaugural concert. As we know, the orchestra and its audience had to wait an additional 12 months, until Saturday night, for that concert to take place.

Blessed Purcell. Poor audience. Lucky audience. The Fairy Queen (1692), a semi-opera with spoken text, was semi-staged by the Academy of Ancient Music at the Barbican on Monday.
