Jazz, Fans and 2 Gems: Mark Morris Celebrates His Company's 45th
The dance climate is far from ideal these days, especially for those working in modern dance. But Mark Morris has shown an ability to adapt. While summer, for his company, used to mean a season at the Mostly Mozart Festival at Lincoln Center, Morris has pivoted to showing works at the Joyce Theater, where the setting is more intimate — and so are the dances he chooses to show. Unfortunately that has led to a formula. Both of his programs this summer, celebrating the company's 45th anniversary, feature four dances including one premiere, and by the end of the night, that feels less like a delight than a drain. At the Joyce, it makes more of an impact to be surgical, sparing. It was frustrating that the finest dances on each program were saved for last. The first week it was 'Mosaic and United' (1993), set to two string quartet's by Henry Cowell. Its depth of choreography and design — Isaac Mizrahi's shimmering costumes under Michael Chybowski's lighting — creates an earthy, unostentatious atmosphere of mystery. Even more brilliant is the closer for the second program, which runs through Saturday: 'Going Away Party' (1990), a rollicking, carefree and sometimes raunchy dance set to a sparkling recording by Bob Wills and his Texas Playboys. (The rest of the season's music was performed live.) The two premieres, while proficient, were lighter, slighter versions of those older works. The boisterous 'You've Got to Be Modernistic,' making its debut last week, honors the music of James P. Johnson, a dazzling pianist who was a staple of 1920s Harlem. The atmosphere was all party, but it had little bite. And the hushed aura of 'Mosaic and United' was echoed — if only in enigmatic tone — in 'Northwest,' set to music by John Luther Adams, which takes inspiration from the traditional songs and rhythms of the Athabascan and Yup'ik Native peoples of Alaska.

From Rails to Trails Docu, Narrated by Edward Norton, Gets PBS Premiere Date and Trailer (Exclusive)
If you're a rail trail fan like I am, you'll want to park your bike on Wednesday, Oct. 15, and sidle on up to From Rails to Trails, a new documentary narrated by Edward Norton. Airing Wednesday, Oct. 15, on public television stations nationwide (check local listings) and streaming on From Rails to Trails chronicles the 60-year struggle — and transformative triumph — of one of America's most unlikely grassroots movements. More from TVLine PBS, NPR to Lose All Federal Funding as Congress Votes to Pass Rescissions Bill — 'This Is Big!' Cheers Trump Grantchester to End With Season 11 — Find Out When It Will Air Loot Season 3 Gets Fall Release Date - Plus, Watch New Teaser Get an exclusive first look at a trailer above. Trails whose origins are featured include the Illinois Prairie Path in suburban Chicago; the Burke-Gilman Trail in Seattle; the Atlanta Beltline; the West Rail Trail in Brownsville, Texas, which became one of the most bike- and pedestrian-friendly cities in the state; The High Line in New York City, built on an elevated railroad track from the 1930s; the Washington and Old Dominion Trail, which introduced the rail-trail movement to decision-makers in Congress; and The Great American Rail-Trail, which is halfway complete and aims to connect 3,700 miles of rail trails into a coast-to-coast route, from Washington, D.C., to Washington State. From Rails to Trails also visits Queens, N.Y., where government and nonprofit organizations are lobbying to turn abandoned LIRR tracks into a linear park à la The High Line — though opponents hope the city will use the tracks to restore train and subway service to the cut-off community Directed by Dan Protess (Up'N Running, 10 That Changed America), From Rails to Trails navigates the complex legal and political landscape that shaped the rail-trail movement, from property rights disputes to the landmark 'railbanking' legislation passed by Congress in 1983, which preserved abandoned rail corridors for future rail use while allowing them to be repurposed as trails. Interview subjects include former Secretary of Transportation Pete Buttigieg, former Vermont Governor Howard Dean (who shares the story of how Burlington's Island Line Trail became the subject of a landmark U.S. Supreme Court case), former Wisconsin Governor Tommy Thompson (whose father had a role in creating the 32-mile Elroy-Sparta Trail, often regarded as America's first successful rail-trail and famous for its three cavernous tunnels), and Rails-to-Trails Conservancy co-founder Peter Harnik, who's also an executive producer on the documentary. 'Having spent my career advocating for the rails-to-trails movement, I've seen firsthand how abandoned rail lines — once scars across the landscape — have become lifelines for communities,' says Harnik. 'From the unlikely launch of the movement to today's coast-to-coast vision, From Rails to Trails captures the grit, imagination and passion that made it all possible.' Adds director Dan Protess, 'I use my local rail-trail twice a day: for a morning run, and an after-dinner walk with family. Working on this program, I came to realize that the green space that is so integral to my life didn't just happen by accident — people had to fight hard to make it a reality.'

La Bastide: A Taste Of Provence, One Hour From New York City
View of the dining room from the patio at La Bastide, North Salem, New York La Bastide/ In less than a year, La Bastide by Andrea Calstier, a fine dining experience in North Salem, New York, earned a Michelin star. Such early recognition, like this, is uncommon but not surprising to those who have dined at this bespoke, six-table restaurant in northern Westchester. Chef Andrea Calstier and General Manager Elena Oliver, a husband-wife team, own the restaurant and its sister property, Cenadou Bistrot. Two perfectionists, the couple has brought their abundant talents, creativity, love of Provencal cooking, and moxie to America. North Salem (Westchester County), incorporated as a town in 1788, is only about one hour from Manhattan. But its tree-lined two-lane roads and rolling hills, punctuated by lakes, rivers and reservoirs, offer the vibe of a place much farther away from the bustling city. Soon after arriving at La Bastide, guests are led to a comfortable seating area on a stone patio outside the glass door of the dining room. The pairing of aperitifs and canapés, accompanied by views of the bucolic countryside and herb garden in the backyard, feels transportative. The intimate dining room is as picture-perfect as the outdoors. Well-spaced, round tables accommodate parties of no more than six persons each, so the room never feels crowded. 'This is a very personal space where we spend much of our time,' says Elena. 'We want our guests to feel like we are welcoming them to our home.' Careful thought has gone into the design and decor. An open kitchen on one side of the room allows guests to watch the careful final plating of each dish, while the other side features a striking, contemporary wine wall. 'The open kitchen offers an air of transparency and allows us to feel connected to our diners,' says Calstier. The chairs and tablecloths are made of fine Italian leather. The tableware includes custom ceramics by Esther Kwon and knives from blacksmith Coutellerie du Panier, from the couple's hometown in Marseille. Also featured are porcelains from Studio Matte, Belgium, and French Limoges from Jacque Pergay. The Journey From France To North Salem Elena Oliver and Chef Andrea Calstier La Bastide Chef Calstier has a noble culinary lineage. He began cooking at age 15 and trained in some of France's most esteemed Michelin-starred kitchens, including Christophe Bacquie's La Table du Castellet in Provence and L'Abbaye de la Bussiere in Burgundy. In 2017, the young chef seized an opportunity to work in the kitchen of celebrated Chef Daniel Boulud at Restaurant Daniel in New York City. Elena, his soulmate since high school, joined him on this foray. The chef describes the year he spent working at Daniel's as becoming 'part of a family." There, he not only honed his culinary skills but built his confidence and developed connections. It also gave him the opportunity to learn English from the brigade in the kitchen. Within a year, the couple signed a lease for a very tiny dining space and opened their own French bistro, Papilles, in the East Village. The fearless chef was only 23 then. In that small space, Elena was able to elevate her management skills, and the restaurant achieved immediate success. 'It taught us how to become proper restaurant owners,' he says. 'Learning how to hire, inspire, attract, and mentor staff is what sets chefs apart from cooks.' When a partner of Chef Boulud introduced the couple to the North Salem property, they were smitten by the area and knew it offered more possibilities than they could possibly achieve in New York City. 'The region resonated with us because it would more fully allow us to express ourselves,' says Calstier. La Bastide: Impeccable Cuisine and Service Hors d'oeuvres at La Bastide, North Salem, NY La Bastide/ After a year and a half of renovation, La Bastide opened its doors in February 2024. Although it was difficult to fill the dining room at first, perseverance, consistency and staying true to their vision helped them achieve the Michelin star that 'put the restaurant on the map.' The chef's training in classical French cooking enabled him to set aside his ego. But it allows him to innovate and create dishes that showcase the foods rather than the technique. 'We think about the customer experience at every stage of the meal,' he says. While the cuisine at La Bastide pays homage to the couple's roots in Provence, the menu is seasonal, sometimes even microseasonal, capitalizing on the rich bounty the Hudson Valley offers. The chef adapts classic Provencal recipes, including those his grandmother used to prepare, and is inspired by meeting with local farmers in the area to see what they are cultivating. 'The menu is 80% seafood, even if it is only to complement a vegetable dish, because there is so much amazing seafood on the East Coast from Maine to Long Island to New Jersey,' he says. 'In terms of high-quality products, we've never felt limited by the supply.' Currently, the restaurant offers tasting menus at two seatings, 5:00 PM and 8:00 PM, Wednesday through Sunday. Diners have the option of an additional cheese course and/or wine pairing. Sommelier David Berube, who also worked for Chef Boulud, has curated a Wine Spectator award-winning list of 600 French regional wines for the restaurant. Service is seamless, thanks to a well-trained, attentive, and knowledgeable team. From the amuse-bouche to the appetizers, and from the moment the waitstaff lifts the silver domes from the entrées in unison, every dish offers a profusion of delightful flavors presented with artistry and flair. Fabulous desserts (like the popular chocolate with goat cheese) provide the proverbial icing on the cake, leaving sweet memories of an excellent meal. Cenadou Bistrot: More Casual, But Also Not To Be Missed Welcoming bar at Cenadou The more casual, 50-seat Cenadou Bistrot is co-located in the same building as La Bastide, one floor above the fine dining restaurant. Like its sibling, its menu reflects a fusion of delectable influences from Provence and the Hudson Valley. Diners can choose from hors d'oeuvres, charcuterie, mains like Steak Frites, cheeses, and more. The room also offers views of the surrounding landscape and features a welcoming bar (with a limited bar menu). The Bistrot first opened in June 2023. Extremely popular with locals, it has even received glowing accolades from Martha Stewart, who held a holiday party there for her staff. This dining room can stand on its own excellence and only pales when compared to the elegance of La Bastide. La Bastide: A Bastion Of True Hospitality La Bastide is a truly unique restaurant, perfect for a special occasion or for making any occasion special. Many guests choose to enjoy a special dinner at the restaurant and return the following day for a more casual lunch at Cenadou. Elena is always pleased to provide recommendations for nearby boutique hotels and small inns. She aptly describes the destination as 'a perfect getaway that offers the feel of being somewhere in France.' After a visit, the most lasting impression of La Bastide, beyond the exceptional food and ambiance, is the genuine warmth, hospitality, and dedication of the owners. 'If you believe in what you want to do, you don't have to compromise,' says Chef Calstier. IF YOU GO La Bastide By Andrea Calstier 721 Titicus Road, North Salem, New York, (914) 485-1519
