Le Jazz Hot 

Le Jazz Hot

(the Quartet/Trio of the Hot Club of San Francisco) celebrates the music of Django Reinhardt and Stephane Grappelli’s pioneering Hot Club de France. Often called gypsy jazz, the music of Le Jazz Hot borrows the all-string instrumentation of violin, bass and guitars from the original Hot Club, but presents innovative arrangements of classic tunes and original compositions. Hearing the ensemble carries the listener back to the 1930s and to the small, smoky jazz clubs of Paris or the refined lounges of the Hotel Ritz.

Charlotte Bronte and <br />Emily Dickinson in Conversation

THE REGION OF BLISS

by Becca Smith
Charlotte Bronte and
Emily Dickinson in Conversation


Bronte and Dickinson, whose published works from the eighteen hundreds have never been out of print, live in the collective imagination as mysterious, doomed creatures of attics and parsonage. Yet, Bronte wrote one of the greatest human rights love stories in the English language and Dickinson’s poetry defines the actions of the human heart with unmatched force of originality and confidence.

As they might have described their most intimate desires to one another, The Region of Bliss investigates the love objects, formidable drive and passionate yearning for connection that drove the creative genius of Bronte's Jane Eyre and Dickinson's letters to the world.
