Honolulu Star-Bulletin Features By Burl Burlingame bburlingame@starbulletin.com. People having been raving aboutviolinist anne akiko meyers for more than a quartercentury, and she's only 31. http://starbulletin.com/2002/04/05/features/story9.html
Extractions: bburlingame@starbulletin.com People having been raving about violinist Anne Akiko Meyers for more than a quarter-century, and she's only 31. "Almost hopelessly beautiful," moonily reported The Strad magazine. "As she declared the themes of the first movement, as the bow struck the violin strings in increasingly agitated spurts of musical ideas, it was as though she were building a fire ignited by the sparks of sound that leaped from her soul ..." breathlessly noted the Dayton Daily News, and then the reporter had an afterglow cigarette. Step back from the gee-whiz sparkle of the high-end classical-music circuit she's playing with the Honolulu Symphony this weekend and what you've got is a hard-working young woman who spends her life in anonymous airplanes and giant hotels and strange cities. "Polyester," says Meyers, "is my friend. The gown is wrinkled; you hang it in the hotel shower and hope it straightens out. It's every guy's nightmare to deal with that, but women do it constantly. "What do I do? There's no time to do much, wherever I am. Rehearsals. Walk around and look at buildings, which are usually deserted when I'm free. More rehearsals. (Sigh) It can be lonely."

Under Christie's baton the orchestra will perform works by Takemitsu, Japan's foremost composer, including Three Film Scores for Strings.

On February 21 and 22, brilliant young violinist Anne Akiko Meyers joins the Symphony at Meymandi Concert Hall at 8pm. Known for her "playing that flows from the heart...Meyers immediately demonstrates the idiomatic character and high technical standard that stamps her playing..." (The New York Times). Daring, elegant and compelling, Ms. Meyers has performed with nearly every major orchestra both in the United States and abroad. She has also made many festival appearances, including Ravinia, Tanglewood and Vail, and has been featured on numerous radio and television broadcasts. Critics praise her "playing of rare sensitivity," her "vigorous mastery, unflinching technical skills and stylish elegance," and her wonderful charming stage presence. With the Symphony, she will perform Barber's gorgeous Violin Concerto.

Extractions: "Open the pod bay doors, HAL." "I'm sorry, Dave, I'm afraid I can't do that." The New Haven Symphony Orchestra opened Woolsey Hall's doors Thursday evening to the incredible music from the 1968 Stanley Kubrick masterpiece, "2001: A Space Odyssey." This seminal movie would not be secure today had Kubrick used the soundtrack offered him by Alex North, whose "Main Theme" conductor Jung-Ho Pak used to open the program. Instead, Kubrick left in the romantic and contemporary classical music he used while editing. The result is an impressionistic journey from the Dawn of Man to a voyage to Jupiter, supervised by a HAL-9000 supercomputer that has a really bad day, disconnects the entire crew's life support, freeze-dries astronaut Frank on a space walk and won't open the pod bay doors to let Dave back in. As memorable as the music are the lines spoken by the droll HAL to Dave, stuck outside: "I know everything hasn't been quite right with me, but I can assure you, quite confidently, that it is going to be all right again." Anyone with e-mail can identify.
