Subj: Re: [DR-L] suspicious Loree on ebay
Date: Sat, 25 Mar 2006 19:03:12 -0500

Interesting; I sent the seller a msg including asking him/her to look again
at the serial numbers which should be on two of the joints. At least that's
how mine is. Between the 2 I would think the number could be identified more
clearly. I also said that the no. is important and I wouldn't bid on it
without knowing what it is.

I might ask for more detailed photos, but I'm not that serious about bidding
on it.

>>
>>“The theatre and Händel's music were still perceived by many

>>Travels long behind him, almost prevented the Dublin performance ….
>>Swift

>>"A Sacred Oratorio," thus avoiding any charge of blasphemy.”
>>-David Vickers from www.gfhandel.org
>>
>>Several Dancers Core has initiated an artistic collaboration between its
>>dance company, CORE Performance Company, and the Atlanta Baroque
>>Orchestra to
>>present Georg Friedrich Händel’s "Messiah" on Saturday, April 1, 2006
>>at 8:00
>>p.m. at the Rialto Center for the Performing Arts. The contemporary
>>dancers
>>and Baroque musicians together have embraced the score of Händel’s
>>master work
>>to create an intimate and passionate performance. The melding of
>>contemporary dance and Baroque music will result in a reflective work
>>particularly
>>appropriate for the Easter season. This performance will be the closing
>>show in
>>the first season of “Woodruff Dance at the Rialto” series which is a
>>collaboration among Woodruff Arts Center, The Rialto Center and Several
>>Dancers Core.
>>
>>Sue Schroeder, Artistic Director of CORE Performance Company, describes
>>her
>>choreographic work on "Messiah" as... “an illuminated manuscript, where
>>the
>>dance adds color, movement and meaning to an already rich text and
>>score.”
>>Schroeder’s "Messiah" originally premiered with taped music in 2001 as
>>part of
>>Several Dancers Core’s 20th Anniversary Season. The work has been
>>updated
>>and expanded incorporating more of Händel’s score and integrating
>>musicians and
>> singers into the stage performance. Canadian-born Antoine Plante,
>> Artistic
>>Director of Houston’s early music ensemble, Mercury Baroque, will be
>>conducting the musicians of the Atlanta Baroque Orchestra and a chorus in
>>the
>>performance at the Rialto.
>>
>>Much controversy at the time of Händel’s premiere of the "Messiah"
>>revolved
>>around its sacred text being performed in a theatrical setting.
>>Schroeder’s
>>adaptation of the sacred work for dance, particularly contemporary dance,
>>is
>>equally innovative and provocative. The combination of an intimate,
>>authentic period performance with the unorthodox movement approach of
>>contemporary
>>dance challenges the conventions of performance of this musical
>>masterpiece.
>>CORE, under the artistic direction of Sue Schroeder and the Atlanta
>>Baroque
>>Orchestra have collaborated to re-envision this classic work with
>>contemporary
>>sophistication. The vocal soloists for "Messiah" will be: Ana
>>Trevino-Godfrey, soprano; Gerrod Pagenkopf, countertenor; Joseph Gaines,
>>tenor; and Sam
>>Handley, bass.
>>
>>Tickets are $16, $26 or $42 and may be purchased through the Rialto Box
>>Office. For more ticket information for "Messiah," please contact the

>>Please join us for this emotional celebration if you are in the
>>neighborhood!
