Paul Rand: The Designer's Task at U-M Museum of ArtThe exhibition, Paul Rand: The Design-
er's Task, is showing now through Febru-ary 10, 2019 at the University of Michi-gan's Museum of Art, in Ann Arbor. Rand, a master of branding and corpo-
rate identity, was a giant of American design whose influential career spanned the second half of the twentieth century. The exhibit features posters, book cov-
ers, and packaging designs from Rand’s beginnings as a pro bono designer for arts and culture publications like Direc-tion magazine (an example is pictured) to his decades of crafting trailblazing corporate design for companies such as IBM. His visionary and pithy conceptions of
corporate and non-profit brand identi-ties—though often graphically mini-mal—embody the artist’s complex phi-losophy, interest in modernist aesthetics, and singular wit. Paul Rand: The Designer’s Task affords
viewers the opportunity to explore the genre of graphic design within the con-text of the art museum and examine how Rand’s intellectual process and impact on visual culture developed over time.
The University of Michigan Museum of Art is free to visit, although a suggested donation of $10 is appreciated. Museum hours are Tuesday through Saturday 11 a.m. – 5 p.m. and Sunday, 12 noon – 5 p.m., closed Mondays. For more information, call (734) 764-0395, or see umma.umich.edu. The University of Michigan Museum of Art is located at 525 South State Street, in Ann Arbor.

SYMPHONIC NEWS
Ruth's Music Notes Ruth Crystal-Zaromp
I thought that the past weekend would be enter-taining, but it turned out to be so much more than that. The DSO on Thursday eve-
ning left the audience in awe. One tends to think that Beethoven’s Fifth Symphony would sound very routine after listening to it for the 100th time or so. However, even with a lifetime history of being ingrained in this music, the performance by conductor Carlos Miguel Pri-eto was exciting and entic-ing with new elements that we might not have heard before. Violinist Christian Tetzlaff
performed the Violin Concer-to in D Major by Brahms and the encore of a movement from a Bach violin sonata was totally engrossing.The next program of the
DSO classical series takes place this Friday morning and Saturday evening. Niko-laj Znaider will conduct and cellist Jean-Guihen Queyras (pictured) will be perform-ing the Schumann Cello Con-certo. For more information,
check DSO.org. To hear Alvin Waddles and
Friends at Cranbrook Music Guild last Saturday after-noon revealed a rich light as the season progresses. The cooperation between Waddles, Marion Hayden (bass) and Djallo Djakate (percussion) enhanced the individual qualities of each. Waddles will also be appear-ing in a program honoring the 100th birthday of Leon-ard Bernstein at Kerrytown Concert House, on Saturday, December 15 at 8 p.m. Sunday was fulfilling to the
utmost with two unusual performances. First, Bach’s Christmas Oratorio, a piece
that isn’t performed very often because of its inane difficulties and seriously complicated Baroque style. Appearing at Christ Church Grosse Pointe, Scott Hanoian conducted a chamber or-chestra that was exception-al in its quality. Tenor Brian White’s German enunciation was extremely clear and un-derstandable and Bass Jake Surzyn supplemented in his quality of voice. The wife of Hanoian, soprano Meredith, is still growing in her vocal qualities since I first heard her some years ago. This performance of the
Christmas Oratorio is to be commended. Four out of the six cantatas were per-formed, parts 1, 2, 3, and 6, allowing the entire per-formance to be satisfying without being overdone for the audience. Grosse Pointe Christ Church will be per-forming the St. John Passion on Sunday, April 14, 2019, at 3 p.m. For more information, call (313) 885-4841. Finally, it was certainly a
relaxing end of evening to be able to see Menotti’s op-
era Amahl and the Night Visi-tors at the War Memorial in Grosse Pointe. This opera, dealing with
the Christmas idea from a child’s point of view is rela-tively short but totally en-grossing. The sets were col-orful, and the story might have been bearing the sad-der side of life, yet also re-vealed the hope and faith that carry us all through life’s difficulties. Natalie Nikolajevs as
Amahl appeared with deli-cate intonation and acting. The mother, Katherine DeY-oung was convincing in her role, and the three Magi and Page were entertaining. Conductor Oriol Sans held it all together, including the conducting of singers com-ing onstage from the back of the hall. Amahl will be showing
again at the Macomb Center for the Arts in two shows on December 22. If you want to entertain the entire family, this would be a very enjoy-able option. This coming weekend is
rich in events especially on

Features of the event include post-race refreshments, awards presentation for the top 3 men and women in the 5K, a Belle Isle designed medal for all race finishers, a trophy for every child who finishes the 1-mile event (while supplies last) and all participants will receive a commemorative race shirt (while supplies last).

This year saw an avalanche of theatrical releases (almost 150 from the major studios, and an astonishing 12,000 more titles were screened in the worldwide film market).Of course I didn't see them
all, no one could. But, from my still-pro-sized list of viewed movies, here are six that stood out for me.#1) A Simple Favor. I didn't
see a more surprising movie this year. Totally amusing.#2 Eighth Grade. Elsie Fish-
er as an insecure 13 year-old on her way to high school. #3 Bohemian Rhapsody. This
is Rami Malek's career defin-ing role as Freddie Mercury. #4 Spider-Man: Into the Spi-
der-Verse. A half-dozen Spi-der-man variants from other dimensions. Amazing.#5 Green Book. Racial, cul-
tural and intellectual divi-sions are bridged in this (mostly) true story.#6 The Ballad of Buster
Scruggs. Old West vignettes from the Coen Brothers. These six movies are worth
your time and attention. x 6
Anna Kendrick and Blake Lively star in A Simple Favor. My favorite movie of the year and the most clever, as well.
Elsie Fisher gives us a front-row seat in her Eighth Grade homeroom. From director Bo Burnham. Profoundly good.
Rami Malek as Freddie Mercury, the sadly iconic lead singer of Queen in Bohemian Rhapsody. Oscar-worthy.
Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse. Jaw-Dropping anima-tion from Marvel Studios. Super in every way.
In Green Book, loutish Viggo Mortensen drives concert pianist (Mahershala Ali) through the Jim Crow south.
The Coen Brothers homage to the Old West, The Ballad of Buster Scruggs. Vignettes, funny, dramatic and good.
