International Festival Review: Maria Keohane/ European Union Baroque Orchestra
MUSIC, MARIA KEOHANE/ EUROPEAN UNION BAROQUE ORCHESTRA, GREYFRIARS KIRK ***** WHO is Maria Keohane? Many were asking the same question prior to the Swedish soprano's appearance in Wednesday's Greyfriars Bach series with the European Union Baroque Orchestra. None will forget her now. She was the shining light in a programme that concentrated on Bach's secular side, throwing in a Handel cantata for good measure and useful comparison.
Ingredients: What My Show Is Made of, by Nathan Caton
WARMTH My show is based on my family. It's like I'm inviting my audience into my house to sit around the dinner table while they're all chit- chatting. It's a very lively place. There's always something going on - music, laughter, cooking. You'll meet my mum, my little brother, who's an aspiring musician although not the most talented in the world; my grandma, who's a very old-school West Indian lady who takes no crap from no-one; and my auntie, who's very philosophical - and a bit wild and c...

Book Festival Reviews: Bate Takes Fresh Look at the Bard
WHAT can you say about the world's best-ever writer when he left behind so few details about his life that biographers are always doomed to find him elusive? And what can you say about him that's still fresh when you've already written one of those doomed biographies yourself? That was the dilemma the pre-eminent Shakespearean scholar Jonathan Bate faced when he first contemplated writing another book about him. But Ben Jonson's description of Shakespeare as "the soul of the age" seemed to of...

Book Festival Reviews: Weather at the Front in Wartime Britain...
THE theory of turbulence in weather systems is considered by meteorologists and physicists to be one of the most complex they encounter. Einstein once said he hoped God would explain it to him after he died. A daunting subject, then, for a novelist who describes himself as "terrible at maths". But that didn't deter Giles Foden, author of The Last King of Scotland, whose latest novel, entitled Turbulence, is about the D- Day landings and the small team of scientists whose job it was to try to ...
