NYC-based ‘The Orchestra Now’ has announced Manhattan performances of ‘Siena, Wagner & Parsifal’ and ‘The Nutcracker & The Planets’ as part of their Sight and Sound series starting Dec 8.
On Sunday, December 8, the iconic Metropolitan Museum of Art (MET) hosts The Orchestra Now’s performances of ‘Siena, Wagner & Parsifal’ which kicks off the organization’s Sight and Sound concert series. The program will examine Wagner’s remarkable innovations in opera via selections from his work Parsifal, set against the background of notable painterly invention during the Italian Renaissance in Siena.
The Orchestra Now (TON) Sight & Sound series at the Met explores the parallels between orchestral music and the visual arts. Each performance includes an introduction by a Met curator, a discussion with conductor and music historian Leon Botstein accompanied by on-screen exhibition images and live musical excerpts, followed by a full performance of the works and an audience Q&A. Tickets include same-day museum admission.
Richard Wagner
At the dawn of the Italian Renaissance, Siena was the site of remarkable artistic innovation. Sienese artists—including Duccio, Pietro and Ambrogio Lorenzetti, and Simone Martini—played a pivotal role in defining Western painting. Over 500 years later, Richard Wagner revolutionized opera composition in much the same way. Twelve years after he read Wolfram von Eschenbach’s Parzival, a poem from the Renaissance era, he began working on a libretto inspired by this tale of the quest for the Holy Grail. This eventually became his final composition, the opera Parsifal.
The Orchestra’s second December performance will offer a FREE holiday concert of audience favorites by Johann Strauss II, Tchaikovsky, Borodin, and Holst, led by Leonardo Pineda and joined for some of the pieces by the All-City High School Orchestra at New York City’s Talent Unlimited High School on December 15.
The Orchestra Now and Interim Assistant Conductor Leonardo Pineda present a free holiday season concert at the Talent Unlimited High School for the performing arts on the Upper East Side of Manhattan. The program of high-spirited popular works includes Tchaikovsky’s Nutcracker Suite and Johann Strauss II’s Tritsch-Tratsch-Polka. TŌN is joined by NYC’s All-City High School Orchestra for Borodin’s Polovtsian Dances and two movements from Holst’s The Planets.

Amber Martin returns to her country roots with her latest album, the highly anticipated Unbreakable Heart.
Musician, producer, writer, curator, choreographer, and star of her own shows, Amber Martin has worn many hats over the course of her career- and has balanced each and every one with grace. Having toured the United States and beyond, held residencies, hosted cabarets, and performed on several festival stages, Martin is a tour de force of both the creation and performance of music.
Returning for her second album, Martin has tapped into her country roots with Unbreakable Heart. A masterful balance of boot-stomping, slow-swaying, and deeply heartfelt songs, the album feels every emotion to its fullest regardless of how bright or blue.
Described as a series of independent tracks, Unbreakable Heart crosses the full span of the lived experience all while coming together in its own beautifully eclectic way.
Martin balances the floaty strings and can-do trucking-on attitude of “The Moon’s A Reminder” with the spark of tracks like “Devil Came Down The Dancefloor” that contains all the swinging energy you’d expect from such a title with absolute grace.
The utterly nostalgic Pawpaw’s Yodel features floating vocals and finger picking over a warming conversation with her grandfather on his yodeling passion and skill that plucks all the right heart strings.
Other tracks like the hilariously witty breakup piece and final pre-release single “I Left My Weed In Texas,” in which Martin is resentful over a breakup but is left grieving the weed she’d left behind rather than the ex-lover, are effortlessly counterbalanced by the slower movement of songs like the titular track “Unbreakable Heart,” which is full of crooning vocals and brushed percussions that bring a beautiful sway to the listening experience.
In addition to her own handiwork, Unbreakable Heart features a sparkling set of her long-time friends Rufus Wainwright, John Cameron Mitchell, and Jake Shears. All co-writers and vocalists on their subsequent tracks, the culmination of the artists’ skills and evident passion for their craft results in a set of three songs that round Unbreakable Heart into completion.
“Every song on ‘Unbreakable Heart’ is a standalone in its uniqueness. No two songs are alike. It’s brightened by the fine musicianship of some truly talented Texas musicians and collaborators in New York City. Everyone involved in this album, whether as writer, backing vocals singer or musician is a dear friend and ‘family’ member. It’s truly a love letter.”
– Amber Martin
Rufus Wainwright’s collaborative track comes in the form of “I Want You To Be A Real Man”, a hauntingly honey-warm duet that dissects concepts of masculinity over waltz-y piano and guitar licks that enchant.
Opening over crooning birds beneath the soft sounds of a guitar is “Second Heart” with Jake Shears. With swaying instrumentals and beautifully penned lyrics, “Second Heart” pulls listeners into a sense of pensive peace.
“Call Me Joe” concludes the collaborative trifecta, a bittersweet track made in partnership with John Cameron Mitchell that feels more like a ‘see you again’ in place of a ‘farewell’- a hopeful goodbye and nod towards the future.
Closing out the album with “Until Marianne,” a song filled with longing and love, Martin leaves listeners with a feeling of fond persistence with her moving vocals floating over the simple guitar instrumental.
A well-rounded experience of country twang highs and lows, Unbreakable Heart is a testament to Martin’s ability to put the intangible into lyrics and the indescribable into sound.
To celebrate the release of Unbreakable Heart, Amber Martin will be taking the stage at The Cutting Room in Manhattan on Tuesday, November 19. Supported by her band and several special guests, the evening will be host to an unforgettable night of live performance- not to mention the after-party with some of Amber’s own special DJs.

The first and most comprehensive history of the birthplace of punk music, CBGB, has just been re-issued by Trouser Press Books, an all-music imprint headed by veteran music journalist Ira Robbins.
A History of CBGB – by Roman Kozak
Originally published in 1988 and out of print for decades, This Ain’t No Disco: The Story of CBGB is a warts-and-all history of the legendary Bowery venue related by nearly 100 of the insiders who performed, worked and braved pre-gentrification Downtown NYC to witness the birth of punk music. Written long before the legend overtook the reality — while the club was still open and most of the principals alive — this is the real story told in gritty, outrageous and sometimes hilarious detail by onetime Billboard Magazine editor, the late Roman Kozak. The 2024 edition includes a new forward by Chris Frantz of Talking Heads, 12 pages of photos by Ebet Roberts, and a post-script by Ira Robbins that takes the story forward from 1988 to the October 2006 shuttering of the club.
Kozak’s book includes unguarded quotes from CBGB found Hilly Kristal, Joey and Dee Dee Ramone (the Ramones), Chris Stein and Clem Burke (Blondie), Richard Hell and Richard Lloyd (Television), Lenny Kaye (Patti Smith Group), Annie Golden (The Shirts), David Byrne (Talking Heads), Seymour Stein (Sire Records) and many more.
As a member of several of the more than 10,000 bands that performed at the club in its 33-year run, it was a treat to take a trip back … without having to once again experience the foul ambiance of its legendary and always-broken bathrooms!
CBGB came about when its owner, Hilly Kristal, a wannabe singer, left his former bar in the West Village for the grimy Lower East Side to escape the noise complaints of his Greenwich Village neighbors. His short-lived attempt at a country music venue, one with sure to fail breakfast time gigs, would be shelved when Tom Verlaine and Richard Lloyd of Television lied their way into a performance in March 1974. Television’s stint would shortly attract other bands, including The Ramones, the first act signed to a major label, a quartet that could crank out 20-song sets in 17 minutes or less. By the end of the year, CBGB, which would initially feature other kinds of music along with comedians, would become an all-rock venue.
The first two years of CBGB would be hand-to-mouth, with Hilly living on a cot in the back of the club and supplementing his income by buying a truck and starting a moving business, one that employed his favorite starving musicians like the members of The Shirts. Various musicians and staffers humorously relate memories of dodging the many “care packages” left on the floor by Hilly’s dog, Jonathan, and the suspect quality of Hilly’s infamous chili and hamburgers. Mink Deville claims Jonathan was the source of the crabs he got four times in the seedy but beloved club. And there is much talk in the book about the decrepit bathrooms, for their sub-Third World sanitary conditions and where the truly brave might partake in the classic drug-and-sex combo. “You could always see four feet in the bathroom stall,” said Dick Manitoba.
The book contains interesting facts about the humble and initially stumbling beginnings of the early CB’s bands who would become legends, including Blondie and Talking Heads. Elda Stiletto and busy backup singers/present-day cosmetic company giants, Tish and Snooky, tell of Blondie’s early days, the gestation in Elda’s band, and false starts as Angel and Blondie and the Banzai Babies before settling on a firm lineup anchored by drummer Clem Burke. Another memorable night was when Talking Heads and The Shirts auditioned together. Hilly loved the first because they were “neat” and carried “very little equipment.” And though they didn’t reach the commercial heights of other early CBGB bands, The Shirts would prove Kristal’s favorite. He would go on to manage them, secure their three-album deal with Capital Records, and a role for their lead singer, the now busy actress Annie Golden, in Milos Foreman’s movie version of the Broadway musical Hair.

CBGB began to pick up steam with the arrival of Patti Smith, who had a four-day-a-week, seven-week residency in Spring 1975. Kristal compares the excitement to comic Lenny Bruce’s residency at the Village Vanguard when Hilly was helping manage the club for owner Max Gordon. The two-week CBGB Rock Festival in July 1975 wouldn’t bring in a huge amount of cash, but it generated tons of press from outlets like The Soho Weekly News, Village Voice, etc. Writer Legs McNeil, the man who popularized the term “punk” appropriated from a favorite term of TV’s Kojack, called CBGB “a juvenile delinquent hangout, where everyone was equal because they were broke.” To Richard Lloyd, it gained traction because “it was a reaction to hippie stadium music.” By 1976, the club started making money, and one of the essential ingredients of success began to happen: the girls started coming in droves, according to Tish and Snooky. In July 1976, CBGB invested in a new sound system, which would be ripped off then replaced, making it the best-sounding live room in New York City and maybe the world. It became a venue that would attract artists from around the globe, including the then-unsigned Police, who played for an audience of 10 in July 1977.
There is lots of good dish on Hilly’s failed ventures, like his short-lived CBGB Theater on Second Avenue, the proposed punk rock sitcom, TVCBGB and his ill-fated management of another popular attraction, The Dead Boys. The book also relates how CBGB’s slow burn rep as the birthplace of punk was usurped a bit by the UK – the rapid rise of the Sex Pistol and the appropriation of the spiked hair and torn t-shirt originated by Richard Hell. When the club launched it was the only game in town for bands playing original music, a refuge where virtually anyone could get a shot at their Monday audition nights. But by the 1980s, CBGB would have competition from new clubs like Hurrah, The Ritz, Danceteria, The Peppermint Lounge, the Mudd Club and more. But most would not survive the decade.
But even with all this buzz, CBGB-style punk was “poison as far as record companies were concerned.” Except for Blondie, whose breakthrough came from a disco infusion in their #1 singer “Heart of Glass,” CBGB bands didn’t move platinum units of vinyl or CDs or get much radio airplay. Bands like latter-day favorites, the chainsaw-wielding, car-blowing-up Wendy Williams and her Plasmatics, had to make their living on the road.

In the mid- and late-1980s, CBGB would birth another musical genre – hardcore. It’s Sunday hardcore matinees did big business at the door but not much at the bar, as many devotees were underage or straight arrows who didn’t drink beer. One CBGB barkeep recalls: “We could make $2,000 at the door and only $200 at the bar.” Bands like Murphy’s Law, Agnostic Front, Cro-Mags, Bad Brains, The Beastie Boys, and Damage were featured; some also on cassette-only releases of live performances on a CBGB imprint created with Celluloid Records. Many of these and other new artists would have their albums featured at a new satellite, CBGB’s Record Canteen.
Kozak wraps up his history in 1988, well before the legend was glammed up via the 2013 feature film and the ridiculously “reopened CBGB” restaurant at Newark Airport. Trouser Press’s Ira Robbins provides a coda detailing Hilly’s losing battle with his landlord and the August 2006 benefit concert that attempted to save the club. (Note: this reporter did PR for that event pro-bono during his agency days. He also had his electric mandolin stolen at the club! The first gig by my long-running project, Spaghetti Eastern Music, took place at CBGB Gallery in 2003).
Kozak’s tale concludes with one of many significant observations in the book from guitarist/writer/record producer Lenny Kaye, a thought posited on the Lower East Side’s new monied residents.
“The key and glory of CBGB is that they’ve never gotten too big for their britches. They’ve never gone above their own Bowery station…even though the Bowery is above its own station now.”
Jessie Murph brought an electrifying energy during her tour stop at the historic Landmark Theatre in Syracuse. With fans wrapped around the block, they were treated to an unforgettable night filled with emotions and powerhouse vocal performance that left them wanting more.
The night opened with Big Yavo, an emerging artist from Alabama who delivered a set with southern charisma and sounds. His blend of hip-hop and rap had the crowd dancing on their feet, primed for what was to come, setting the perfect tone for Jessie’s entrance.
The historic Landmark Theatre, with its architecture and old-world charm, was the perfect venue for Jessie’s soulful vibe. The 20 year-old Alabama native began her music career by sharing heartfelt covers and original songs on social media platforms, where her voice quickly gained widespread attention.
Now, she’s made her place as a force in contemporary pop/country and R&B, captivating audiences with her unapologetically honest storytelling. Performing hits like “High Road,” “Sip,” “Pray” and “Heartbroken” had the crowd singing every word along making the Landmark echo with energy.
Her breakout hit “High Road,” a collaboration with Koe Wetzel, dove into themes of resilience and facing personal battles. This track blends her emotive vocals with Wetzel’s gritty, country-rock influence, creating a unique crossover fans have welcomed with open arms.
Another highlight of her career is “Heartbroken,” her collaborative hit with Diplo and Polo G, which blends electronic beats with her signature raw lyrics. This song’s success further cements her as a versatile artist capable of thriving across different musical landscapes.

Brooklyn based singer-songwriter Camille Schmidt has released her latest single “XOXO” in preparation for her debut album Nude #9.
Brooklyn based and raised in a constant environment of creativity, it’s no wonder why Camille Schmidt has picked up all spans of musical skill over the years. Spending extensive amounts of time in her parents’ art studio, Schmidt found endless inspiration in both the work her parents created and the people who would come in and out of the space.
Debuting as a musician this past June with the EP Good Person, Camille carved out a queer folk-rock sound for herself that reflected her larger ability to balance an innately wry sense of humor with deeper moments of devastatingly quiet self-reflection with tracks like the alt-country “Your Game” and her wistful approach to heartbreak with “Bumblebee Drinks Lavender.”
Returning for her debut album, Schmidt pulls from her experiences in her parents’ studio in Nude #9, each track a portrait of herself, her family, and her lovers past and future- just as each live model drawing session would result in pieces titled in the same convention, a unique reflection of each individual’s perspective on the subject.
Whimsical, hilarious, and deeply felt, Schmidt’s debut album digs deeper into her experiences with romance, sexuality, friendship, and her sense of self. Newly released from the Nude #9 project is “XOXO,” a fascinating layering of electronic manipulation that speaks to every corner of Camille’s inner thoughts.
Wandering from thoughts of raising a child with her best friend to contemplating the “demon in my room” she faces when she’s alone, “XOXO” is a track tinged with an unplaceable sense of something impending. Beginning with a rather upbeat digital track, the song progressively spirals and collapses in on itself as Schmidt becomes half-woman, half-machine. By the conclusion of the song, listeners are left with a feeling of evolution- she’s buried her former self and grown into something new.
Paired with the release of “XOXO” is its official music video that takes the concept of burying your past self to another level. Viewers watch as Camille dons a hazmat suit and brandishes a mop, opening the door to the bloodied motel bathroom where the body of her past self lies.
A perfect echo of the song’s themes that are simultaneously impressive and ironic, the “XOXO” music video is a testament to Schmidt’s signature creative attitude and growth as an artist.
“XOXO” by Camille Schmidt is out now and Nude #9 is slated for release on January 10. To keep up with Camille Schmidt’s current works and future endeavors, check out her official website here.
Psychedelic funk band Lettuce and legendary emcee GZA join forces for ‘The Get Up Tour’ in 2025. The tour sees 17 dates including one at Brooklyn Steel on February 7.

On Monday, November 11, Song City held its monthly concert, a multi-genre songwriter showcase held at the Waiting Room in Troy.
These concerts have a unique set up unlike any other. The artists are seated in a circle in the center with the audience around them. The singer/song writers then take turns sharing a song along with a bit of information about the songs story, or their writing process.
November artists at The Waiting Room in Troy included Honeysuckle, Sofia Corts, Micheal Francis McCarthy, and Dom Romano (Scotchka). These artists are all Capital Region locals. However, they weren’t all of the same genre.
Honeysuckle, based out of Saratoga Springs, consists of Holly McGarry and Chris Bloniarz. Honeysuckle has performed all across the country including many music festivals such as Lollapalooza and The Newport Folk Festival.
Sofia Corts, an 18-year-old pop singer from Albany, is currently attending Berklee School of Music on a Full Scholarship, and also performed at the 2024 Tulip Festival.
Micheal Francis McCarthy is an “American Roots” musician which blends delta blues, traditional folk, early country and more. He sang three songs, each one telling a personal story, including his young daughter’s curiosity, phone addiction, and a song that labeled hate as a cancer detrimental to society.
Dom Romano, an artist from Clifton Park, is the lead singer in the Albany-based band Scotchka. Their style is considered surf rock and are compared to many popular bands like the Arctic Monkeys and The Killers.
Overall, Song City creates a perfect atmosphere for new artists to share more than just their music. The intimacy of the venue allows them to feel closer to their audience and also connects them to their fellow artists. During the show we heard the artists discussing their different writing processes, complimenting each other’s styles, and even helping each other when there were microphone issues during a song.
Be sure to follow Song City to see the upcoming artists and concerts to hear new artists the second Tuesday of every month.
