[an error occurred while processing this directive] [an error occurred while processing this directive] Music Reviews Mar 19, 1999 - Pianist Tian Jiang Plays Brilliant Pioneer Center Concert By Jack Neal The exceptional Chinese pianist Tian Jiang played a beautifully packaged recital at the Pioneer Center Thursday night. Unfortunately, the concert - sponsored by Washoe County Community Concerts - was not well attended, which is a loss for the students of piano artistry who would have enjoyed and learned much from what Tian has to offer. Tian brought distinctive insights to all he played for a presentation of rare subtlety and delicate coloration. His playing is a blend of the European culture his extensive gifts obviously embrace, and the artistic refinement of the land of his birth. His hands-across-the-sea approach worked wonderfully. The three traditional European works - Chopin's Scherzo No. 2 in B flat minor, Op. 31, Prokofiev's Sonata No. 3 in A minor, Op. 28, and Schumann's monumental Carnaval, Op. 9 - were splendidly brought to life amidst fluttering pianissimos, discrete inflections, and - when rapture called - grittier flights of bombast. It was quite a show. It was also quite an achievement; show never, ever overshadowed grace, charm and enchantment. His Chopin was both lovely and seductive - a hard-to-come-by combination. Just for navigational purposes, the work's bigger-than-life structure requires virtuosity in the nth degree. Tian has the technical facility to traverse the Chopin's scary peaks and crevasses and then some. With Tian, the ardent anxiety of the Scherzo's lyrical second theme had a defiance fueled by the prolongation of harmonic tension over long stretches, that was not just a nod in the direction of the work's underlying turbulence, it was deep down and scrumptious Chopinesque playing.

this story was taken from www.inq7.net URL: http://www.inq7.net/ent/2002/feb/26/text/ent_4-1-p.htm Steve Martin rediscovers his literary muse Inquirer News Service MOST people know Steve Martin as a popular comedy star, the lead of such hit rib-ticklers as “Father of the Bride,” “Dirty Rotten Scoundrels” and “Parenthood.” But Martin has another, more serious side: he’s a well-regarded and versatile writer—a playwright, movie scriptwriter and novelist all rolled up into one terrifically busy person! Fact is, he’s been writing for decades, mostly away from the public eye. He began his career in entertainment not as a performer, but by writing comic routines for TV shows like “The Smothers Brothers Comedy Hour” and “The Sonny and Cher Comedy Hour.” Then came “Saturday Night Live,” and Martin finally got his chance to both write and perform. He did so well as a comic actor that, before he knew it, his performances had eclipsed his work as a writer. Soon, he had become so busy as a comedy star that he had little time left to devote to his first love. But he never forgot his literary muse. He found time to co-write the script for the comedy film, “The Jerk,” in which he played an oddball character who believed with all his heart that he was born a poor, black child.
