Turandot and Falstaff premiere at Lebanon's Opera North

By Anna Lotko | August 21, 2007

By Dylan Hume | July 3, 2007

I cannot put my finger on it, but here are two things that I do know for sure: Pink Martini plays a wonderful selection of songs that few people born after 1980 have ever heard.And if Sunday night's performance in the Hopkins Center's Spaulding Auditorium was any indication, they play these songs well and with sensibilities almost too refined for their repertoire.
