Literary Boston: A Book Lover’s Guide to Bookshops, Libraries and Hotels
Boston has always been a city of readers. It is where Emerson, Longfellow and Hawthorne gathered for dinner, where America’s great publishers once kept shop and where you can still sit under a vaulted ceiling with a book for an entire afternoon. Literary Boston is not a museum piece. It is woven into the streets, which is exactly what I love about it, and fall is the perfect season to explore it.

Baroque Highlights at Trinity in Lakeville
This past Sunday at Trinity Episcopal Church, Crescendo, under the direction of Christine Gevert, produced a program under the title Gallant Fire,” centering the playlist around a recently discovered choral work by Antonio Vivaldi (1678-1741). This was the American premiere of this work (the only choral work of Vivaldi that we have). Vivaldi claimed to have composed 94 operas, but we have only the titles of 51 operas and none of the scores. Vivaldi was a violin prodigy at the age of eleven when he began playing in his father’s orchestra; he became the most famous violinist and composer of his era.
