This was announced too late for our calendars, so I wanted to pass it on.
John Adams (web site, my piece on him from October) will give an informal talk and sign his memoirs, "Hallelujah Junction" at Carnegie Lecture Hall in Oakland presented by Pittsburgh Arts and Lectures and, of course, the Pittsburgh Symphony Orchestra, which he conducts next week in two big concerts.
He is the PSO's composer of the year and though he is shy by nature, he is good in front of crowds by now. Should be fun to get to know perhaps America's best known composer up close and personal, at 7 p.m. Monday, January 12. Tickets $15, call 412-622-8866.
