SUMMARY:Live at the Met: Eugene Onegin
DESCRIPTION:Following her acclaimed 2024 company debut in Puccini’s Madama Butterfly\, soprano Asmik Grigorian returns to the Met as Tatiana\, the lovestruck young heroine in Pyotr Tchaikovsky’s ardent operatic adaptation of the Pushkin novel. \nBaritone Igor Golovatenko reprises his portrayal of the urbane Onegin\, who realizes his affection for her all too late. The Met’s evocative production\, directed by Tony Award–winner Deborah Warner\, “offers a beautifully detailed reading of … Tchaikovsky’s lyrical romance” (The Telegraph). \nThe Met: Live in HD is the Metropolitan Opera’s Peabody and Emmy Award–winning series of opera performances transmitted live from the stage of the Met in New York into movie theaters and event spaces worldwide. The series has made the Met the world’s leading provider of alternative cinema content and the only arts institution with an ongoing global series of this scale. When the series launched in 2006\, the Met was the first arts company to experiment this way. Since then\, the program has expanded\, with more than 32 million tickets sold to date\, and has been seen in virtually every important world capital from Paris to Cairo\, as well as in towns and villages spread across six continents. \nSUNY Fredonia Assistant Professor and Director of Opera Studies Don Marrazzo will lead a brief pre-opera talk and Q&A at this production.  The talk will begin in the theatre at 12:30pm. \nMarrazzo is a former head of the Vocal Studies Department and Professor of Voice at the Musical Horizons Conservatory (MHC) in Athens\, Greece.  He has maintained a teaching studio since 2002 and his students have performed with acclaimed institutions internationally including: the Metropolitan Opera; the Lyric Opera of Chicago; The Dallas Opera; The Glimmerglass Festival; the Santa Fe Opera; Staatsoper Stuttgart; Staatstheater Nürnberg\, Opéra de Lyon; Oper Bonn; Festival d’Aix-en-Provence; the Dutch National Opera; Tiroler Festspiele Erl; the Cincinnati Symphony Orchestra\, the Concertgebouw Orchestra; the Philadelphia Orchestra; the American Globe Theatre; and the Richard Rodgers Theatre. \nHe also has served as a judge for the Metropolitan Opera National Council Auditions. \nPart of Arts in the Afternoon\, which is sponsored by Dr. James M. & Marcia Merrins\, Live at the Met is underwritten with support from Daniel S. Kaufman and Timothy W. Beaver

SUMMARY:Buffalo Music: The Travesties & Canela The Big Easy in Buffalo Local Series – Sportsmens
DESCRIPTION:Sportsmens presents \nThe Travesties & Canela\nThe Big Easy in Buffalo Local series\nSportsmen’s Tavern\nThursday April 30\, 5pm doors\, 7pm show\n$15 \n \n  \nThe Travesties (garage folk) & Canela (tango/string quartet)\, performing separately and together. Sally (of The Travesties) will be writing a string quartet arrangement for a Travesties original song and Vanessa (of Canela) will be writing a full rock band arrangement for a Canela original – to be performed by both bands together! \n  \nBuffalo-based folk rock band The Travesties breathe fire into folk songs old and new\, including a treasure trove of Americana and Irish music. Songwriter Tyler Bagwell is a historian with a busker’s voice in search of couplets within the notion that “history rhymes.” Fiddler Sally Schaefer is an ethnomusicologist with wide-ranging folk and traditional music interests. Together\, with bassist Patrick Jackson of Folkfaces and drummer Marc Smith of BTPM The Bridge\, they invent and reinvent songs highlighting events\, people\, and places of local and national note. \n  \nCANELA is not your ordinary quartet. Augmented by bass and percussion\, we take a fresh look at what a string ensemble can accomplish and communicate when traditional boundaries of genre and style are reimagined. \n  \nSince 2007 The Big Easy in Buffalo has brought New Orleans and Louisiana music and culture to the Western New York region several times a year for free and low-cost live performance\, as well as music education and mentoring for local musicians\, students\, and the community. Through The Big Easy in Buffalo thousands of students\, dozens of local bands\, and countless audience members in Western New York have been exposed to this unique American culture. The Big Easy in Buffalo is made possible in part by the New York State Council on the Arts with the support of Governor Hochul and the NYS Legislature\, Erie County\, Goldfarb Financial\, Erie County Legislator Michael Kooshoian\, Buffalo.FM\, Dick & Jenny’s\, National Fuel Gas Co.\, and Sportsmen’s Tavern. \n  \nCover poster by S Schaefer\, featuring public domain art “The Old Violin” by John Frederick Peto (c. 1890).

This journey has resulted in a wide repertoire and stunning depth of expression\, which carries on the string quartet tradition in a unique manner. The ensemble has found its core in a warm\, full\, human sound and an egalitarian balance between high and low voices. This approach allows the quartet to maintain a healthy relationship between individual expression and a transparent and respectful presentation of the composer’s work. It is also the drive and motivation for the continuing refinement of its interpretations of the classical repertoire as well as exploration of new epochs.

SUMMARY:Buffalo Music: West 22nd - The To Be or Not To Be Tour with Dipsea Flower at 9th Ward
DESCRIPTION:DSP Shows presents West 22nd-The To Be nor Not To Be Tour live in The 9th Ward with special guest Dipsea Flower  \n7pm doors\, 8pm show \nTickets: General Admission Standing $25 advance\, $30 day of show available at TixR.com (convenience fees apply) or in person at the Babeville Box Office (M-F 11a-5p- in person fee free cash sales\, 3% credit/debit card fee). Ages 12+ \n\nWest 22nd is a rock band out of Austin\, TX\, made up of friends who met at UT Austin and came together with one shared goal: to make music for the world and become the next great rock band.\nTheir sound—self-described as carousel rock—spins through genre\, emotion\, and energy without ever losing its center. It’s a term they coined to capture the controlled chaos of their music: sometimes dizzying\, sometimes grounding\, always unforgettable. \nFrom a breakout EP to a debut album that pulled in over 1.5 million streams in its first month\, West 22nd has made it clear they’re not here to blend in. Their lyrics are autobiographical\, their shows are electric\, and their ambition’s impossible to miss. They’ve already played ACL\, sold out venues in cities they’d never even been to\, and built a fanbase that screams every word right back at them. \nWest 22nd isn’t a throwback or a trend—they’re what’s next. And if you’ve ever been in a crowd when the chorus hits just right\, you already know. \nFor the latest updates\, upcoming shows\, and more\, visit their official website: west-22nd.com

SUMMARY:Buffalo Music: John Gallagher Jr\,  w/Casual Male & Zach Jones & The Tricky Bits – Sportsmens
DESCRIPTION:Sportsmens presents \nJohn Gallagher Jr\, \nw/Casual Male & Zach Jones & The Tricky Bits \nSunday\, April 26\, 2026 7pm \n$20ad/$25door \n \n  \n \nJohn Gallagher Jr. is a Brooklyn based singer-songwriter who has been seen on stage and screens both small and large. \n\n\n\n\nNotable film and TV roles include The Newsroom\, Short Term 12\, 10 Cloverfield Lane\, and Hush. He won a Tony Award for his performance in Duncan Sheik’s hit musical Spring Awakening\, portrayed the Jesus of Suburbia in the Broadway adaptation of Green Day’s Grammy winning rock opera American Idiot\, and most recently starred in Swept Away – a new musical featuring songs by The Avett Brothers. But when it comes to his music\, that’s a bit more personal.  \nBorn in the Small Wonder to folk musicians\, John wrote his first song at the ripe age of 5. Rather\, just the chorus\, as he would earnestly admit to his listeners today. In the years between he has played in a half-dozen bands ranging from roots rock to pop punk. He gigs most often as a solo performer\, wielding his Gibson J-45 and red lightning bolt strap. Taking inspiration from Prine\, Costello\, Springsteen\, Westerberg and Schlesinger – his music is raw\, honest\, and heartfelt. Emo folk rock\, if you will. \n“Write what you know – I don’t go for that\,” John joked while sharing his latest crop of songs at Rockwood Music Hall – the venue on NYCs Lower East Side that has hosted him since 2006 and released his debut album Six Day Hurricane (2016). The wry humor is par for the course at a Gallagher gig. Produced by guitarist Thad DeBrock\, this LP drew comparisons to the jangly Laurel Canyon guitars of The Byrds and the lean bar band dynamics of Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers. Following the release\, John hit the road as an opening act for Anaïs Mitchell and Aaron Lee Tasjan.  \n2021 saw the online self release of 8th and Jane\, a short but sweet 8 song sophomore effort. It’s a fast and fierce postcard jammed with power pop rock and roll numbers\, smoothed out by several soul searching acoustic ballads. An almost tragicomic blend of the rootsy bravado and vulnerable heart-on-sleeve reflection that has become a staple of his music. \nJohn writes with an emphasis on the confessional\, cathartic\, and emotional. His third record\, Goodbye or Something\, was released on June 28th\, 2024 on the indie label Grand Phony Music. Tracked at Studio G Brooklyn and featuring Zach Jones\, Oscar Albis Rodriguez\, Chris Cubeta\, Hannah Winkler\, and Todd Caldwell\, it’s his most personal and profound LP to date. Goodbye or Something is a heart-wrenching and sometimes humorous reflection on lost love and the power of music\, familial bonds\, and a good meal to see us through.
