Sayers-Roods told me she makes up her own songs, and quotes her mom on how they’re not traditional, but still authentic. “My mother goes, ‘That is spirit.

That is truth,'” Sayers-Roods said. “Because my mother and my grandmother have always shared a quote, ‘When song, ceremony and dance stop, so does the earth,’ and I too believe that.” She’s just one of the highlights for a concert that also features Shostakovitch’s Ninth Symphony. \u003ca href=\"https://www.oaklandsymphony.org/event-category/tickets-\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Details here\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://vimeo.com/115441535\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Feb. 24–March 3\u003c/strong>: There’s a category called CNN Opera, describing a musical about a modern political event or movement.

Bell X1 make lovely danceable pop and gorgeous ballads. They write smart lyrics, mixing the personal with the political on song like “Sons and Daughters,” asking future generations for forgiveness for the mistakes of the present — and on “The End is Nigh,” they ask “Will the wrong guy get the codes,” which seems an apt question for Europeans worried about our election of President Donald Trump.

Sayers-Roods told me she makes up her own songs, and quotes her mom on how they’re not traditional, but still authentic. “My mother goes, ‘That is spirit. Those are our ancestors speaking through you. That is your culture being awakened. That is truth,'” Sayers-Roods said. “Because my mother and my grandmother have always shared a quote, ‘When song, ceremony and dance stop, so does the earth,’ and I too believe that.” She’s just one of the highlights for a concert that also features Shostakovitch’s Ninth Symphony. \u003ca href=\"https://www.oaklandsymphony.org/event-category/tickets-\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Details here\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Composer Ted Hearne, who teaches composition at U.S.C., and librettist Mark Doten have created a kind of pop collage out of vocal, instrumental, and recorded sounds sung by a group of vocalists using a lot of autotune.

Bell X1 make lovely danceable pop and gorgeous ballads. They write smart lyrics, mixing the personal with the political on song like “Sons and Daughters,” asking future generations for forgiveness for the mistakes of the present — and on “The End is Nigh,” they ask “Will the wrong guy get the codes,” which seems an apt question for Europeans worried about our election of President Donald Trump. San Francisco is the last stop on a short U.S. Tour for the Bell X1, before they return to their home base in Dublin, Ireland.

It was good for a while, and I got the roles that I needed to show what I could do, yet the roles I needed to really excel at my craft were not written yet.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So he wrote them himself.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I realized, as my own identity began to evolve, that I would have to create my opportunities,\" he says. \"I figured out how to do that with my first short film, \u003ci>Hero Mars.\u003c/i> It was what I learned on my journey to become an artist. My heart was truly broken, so much that I was ready to give up on myself, but what I did was create an award-winning film.

I recall in my earlier days in the theater how the stage manager would say things like ‘ladies stage left, and men stage right’ and I would respond, 'Where should I go?'\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Looking back on those early years of being a performer, Cooper’s gender expression allowed him to play various roles, although bias would still block progress.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I went with this understanding that I was masculine,\" he says, \"and I would lend my masculine physical and emotional traits to both roles. It was good for a while, and I got the roles that I needed to show what I could do, yet the roles I needed to really excel at my craft were not written yet.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So he wrote them himself.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I realized, as my own identity began to evolve, that I would have to create my opportunities,\" he says. \"I figured out how to do that with my first short film, \u003ci>Hero Mars.\u003c/i> It was what I learned on my journey to become an artist. My heart was truly broken, so much that I was ready to give up on myself, but what I did was create an award-winning film.

Sometimes I just want to relax and enjoy a night out, and inevitably something will happen. I'm then put in a position to really sit with someone as they struggle through understanding how their actions or words, regardless of their intent, can be hurtful. In my best moments, I can be the ideal listener, but I'm also human. Sometimes I am weary. But that helps build my empathy and understanding of how patience can run short when people have uncomfortable conversations. It keeps me off a high horse.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>What would your advice be to someone who’s trying to get through to a friend or family member who isn’t as “woke\" as they could be?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I would say don't worry too much about what to say -- worry about how you're listening. Be as curious as you can and ask questions. When people aren't \"woke,\" often it's because they've had very few safe opportunities to be self-reflective. The scariest place can be one's own mind; a lot of people put up defense mechanisms that block them from understanding their own bias, because sitting with that truth can be hard and scary. However, I would always advise to make sure you're giving yourself a break too. Conversations can become really charged if you're trying to break through to someone who does not acknowledge your perspective, or even your humanity.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Check out the first installment of \u003c/em>Mapping Privilege\u003cem>, featuring Skyler Cooper, a veteran, a Buddhist, a transgender pioneer in the arts, an activist and a filmmaker:\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote class=\"embedly-card\">\n\u003ch4>\u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/pop/2017/02/22/mapping-privilege-skyler-cooper-on-fighting-for-ones-very-existence/\">Mapping Privilege: Skyler Cooper on Fighting for One's Very Existence\u003c/a>\u003c/h4>\n\u003cp>\"I heard way early on that, with all the things I was, I wasn’t supposed to be here.

Sometimes I just want to relax and enjoy a night out, and inevitably something will happen. I'm then put in a position to really sit with someone as they struggle through understanding how their actions or words, regardless of their intent, can be hurtful. In my best moments, I can be the ideal listener, but I'm also human. Sometimes I am weary. But that helps build my empathy and understanding of how patience can run short when people have uncomfortable conversations. It keeps me off a high horse.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>What would your advice be to someone who’s trying to get through to a friend or family member who isn’t as “woke\" as they could be?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I would say don't worry too much about what to say -- worry about how you're listening. Be as curious as you can and ask questions. When people aren't \"woke,\" often it's because they've had very few safe opportunities to be self-reflective. The scariest place can be one's own mind; a lot of people put up defense mechanisms that block them from understanding their own bias, because sitting with that truth can be hard and scary. However, I would always advise to make sure you're giving yourself a break too. Conversations can become really charged if you're trying to break through to someone who does not acknowledge your perspective, or even your humanity.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Check out the first installment of \u003c/em>Mapping Privilege\u003cem>, featuring Skyler Cooper, a veteran, a Buddhist, a transgender pioneer in the arts, an activist and a filmmaker:\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote class=\"embedly-card\">\n\u003ch4>\u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/pop/2017/02/22/mapping-privilege-skyler-cooper-on-fighting-for-ones-very-existence/\">Mapping Privilege: Skyler Cooper on Fighting for One's Very Existence\u003c/a>\u003c/h4>\n\u003cp>\"I heard way early on that, with all the things I was, I wasn’t supposed to be here.

We could have hosted a joint baby shower!

Many studies cite “financial distress” as a main factor. Money problems seem highly unlikely for the Carters, but it’s still important that the couple keep things gravy in this post-\u003c/span>\u003ci>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Lemonade \u003c/span>\u003c/i>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">phase of their relationship. *cue roses*\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center\">\u003cb>BUY ACCESSORIES\u003c/b>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">When I was carrying twins, I railed against all the modern contraptions people suggested. Eight months in, I sincerely regretted not acquiring a belly harness. My honest suggestion: buy every pregnancy pillow, My Brest Friend and baby swing that will make your life easier. No one will show up with a shiny medal to reward your suffering.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center\">\u003cb>PLAN THE SIBLING INTRODUCTION CAREFULLY\u003c/b>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Meeting new people can be stressful! Hell, I know plenty of adults who freak out at the thought of an introduction. Prep your eldest in advance, define their role and let them choose when they want to meet them. We heeded the advice of our nurse and waited to make the introduction once the twins were home. We walked our eldest in the house, asked him if he wanted to meet his new brother and sister, and let him walk into the nursery when he was ready. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cimg class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-65077\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/pop/wp-content/uploads/sites/12/2017/02/Venus7.gif\" alt=\"Venus7\" width=\"600\" height=\"338\">\u003c/p>\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center\">\u003cb>STOP, DROP, AND SLEEP\u003c/b>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">When they sleep, you sleep. PERIOD. And if possible try to keep them on the same sleep schedule. A sleep deprived mommy is a cranky mommy. Trust me.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center\">\u003cb>ALLOW THEM TO DEVELOP INDIVIDUALLY\u003c/b>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">The matchy-matchy look is super cute (and believe me, I’m \u003cem>here\u003c/em> for mini identically dressed Beyoncés), but if one twin is more dominant than the other, you’ll need to make sure the less dominant twin has an opportunity to develop his or her personality. It’s also important to remember they’ll develop at their own speed. Just because one twin is walking doesn’t mean you should be concerned if the other is barely crawling. Watching twins come of age is life’s way of reminding us of one very important fact: we’re all different.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center\">\u003cb>MOISTURIZE AND PREPARE FOR A LONG LIFE\u003c/b>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Several studies, including one conducted in 1800s Utah, suggest that women who have twins are more likely to live longer than their counterparts. So buckle up, Beyoncé -- it’s possible we’re in for a long ride. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\n",

Many studies cite “financial distress” as a main factor. Money problems seem highly unlikely for the Carters, but it’s still important that the couple keep things gravy in this post-\u003c/span>\u003ci>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Lemonade \u003c/span>\u003c/i>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">phase of their relationship. *cue roses*\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center\">\u003cb>BUY ACCESSORIES\u003c/b>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">When I was carrying twins, I railed against all the modern contraptions people suggested. Eight months in, I sincerely regretted not acquiring a belly harness. My honest suggestion: buy every pregnancy pillow, My Brest Friend and baby swing that will make your life easier. No one will show up with a shiny medal to reward your suffering.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center\">\u003cb>PLAN THE SIBLING INTRODUCTION CAREFULLY\u003c/b>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Meeting new people can be stressful! Hell, I know plenty of adults who freak out at the thought of an introduction. Prep your eldest in advance, define their role and let them choose when they want to meet them. We heeded the advice of our nurse and waited to make the introduction once the twins were home. We walked our eldest in the house, asked him if he wanted to meet his new brother and sister, and let him walk into the nursery when he was ready. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cimg class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-65077\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/pop/wp-content/uploads/sites/12/2017/02/Venus7.gif\" alt=\"Venus7\" width=\"600\" height=\"338\">\u003c/p>\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center\">\u003cb>STOP, DROP, AND SLEEP\u003c/b>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">When they sleep, you sleep. PERIOD. And if possible try to keep them on the same sleep schedule. A sleep deprived mommy is a cranky mommy. Trust me.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center\">\u003cb>ALLOW THEM TO DEVELOP INDIVIDUALLY\u003c/b>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">The matchy-matchy look is super cute (and believe me, I’m \u003cem>here\u003c/em> for mini identically dressed Beyoncés), but if one twin is more dominant than the other, you’ll need to make sure the less dominant twin has an opportunity to develop his or her personality. It’s also important to remember they’ll develop at their own speed. Just because one twin is walking doesn’t mean you should be concerned if the other is barely crawling. Watching twins come of age is life’s way of reminding us of one very important fact: we’re all different.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center\">\u003cb>MOISTURIZE AND PREPARE FOR A LONG LIFE\u003c/b>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Several studies, including one conducted in 1800s Utah, suggest that women who have twins are more likely to live longer than their counterparts. So buckle up, Beyoncé -- it’s possible we’re in for a long ride. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",

It’s a musical exploration which promises to be less horror movie, and more about the way “we make gods and monsters of each other.” Sounds like modern politics. Details for their show at the Monkey House in Berkeley are \u003ca href=\"https://www.evensi.us/gods-amp-monsters-two-songwriters-plumb-the-dark-amp-the/199473780\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">here.\u003c/a> And it’s a \u003cstrong>cheap thrill\u003c/strong>, with tickets as low as $10.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vrxM-jPOFQo\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Feb. 17–26:\u003c/strong> Mary Shelley’s novel \u003cem>Frankenstein, or the Modern Prometheus\u003c/em> is almost 200 years old, but it feels as fresh as ever; a cautionary tale on the ethics of bioengineering and a heartbreaking story of a creature searching for its identity. Choreographer and Royal Ballet artist-in-residence Liam Scarlett has made a fresh adaptation of the story. It opened last year in London, and now Scarlett is overseeing a new production for the San Francisco Ballet. I asked Scarlett how he gets this awkward creature, assembled from ill-fitting parts, to dance. “I told all the (Frankenstein) dancers to imagine themselves as a newborn baby in an adult’s body,” Scarlett told me backstage during a break from rehearsal. “I think one of the perfect examples is to watch a baby deer, where they haven’t got control of their limbs and yet everything is there. We had to teach him how to walk, before he could run, before he could dance.” Details for this San Francisco Ballet co-commission at the San Francisco Opera House are \u003ca href=\"https://www.sfballet.org/season/repertory/program-03?gclid=CJONwPLMldICFYGHfgod3_wOZQ\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">here\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bn15IvVrprw\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Feb. 17–26\u003c/strong>: The Noise Pop Festival, San Francisco’s indie music and arts fest, is 25 years old and hitting its prime.

It’s a musical exploration which promises to be less horror movie, and more about the way “we make gods and monsters of each other.” Sounds like modern politics.

Choreographer and Royal Ballet artist-in-residence Liam Scarlett has made a fresh adaptation of the story. It opened last year in London, and now Scarlett is overseeing a new production for the San Francisco Ballet. I asked Scarlett how he gets this awkward creature, assembled from ill-fitting parts, to dance. “I told all the (Frankenstein) dancers to imagine themselves as a newborn baby in an adult’s body,” Scarlett told me backstage during a break from rehearsal. “I think one of the perfect examples is to watch a baby deer, where they haven’t got control of their limbs and yet everything is there. We had to teach him how to walk, before he could run, before he could dance.” Details for this San Francisco Ballet co-commission at the San Francisco Opera House are \u003ca href=\"https://www.sfballet.org/season/repertory/program-03?gclid=CJONwPLMldICFYGHfgod3_wOZQ\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">here\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutube'>\n \u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutubeInside'>\n \u003ciframe\n loading='lazy'\n class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__youtubePlayer'\n type='text/html'\n src='//www.youtube.com/embed/bn15IvVrprw'\n title='//www.youtube.com/embed/bn15IvVrprw'\n allowfullscreen='true'\n style='border:0;'>\u003c/iframe>\n \u003c/span>\n \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Feb. 17–26\u003c/strong>: The Noise Pop Festival, San Francisco’s indie music and arts fest, is 25 years old and hitting its prime.
