Imagine walking into your living room and the sofa has moved plus the bookcase is leaning on a different wall. That's what listening to U2's new album is like. “Songs of Surrender” is a “reimagining” of 40 songs from the Irish quartet’s deep catalogue, cleverly presented from “One” to “40.” Think of it as a home makeover. There are triumphs and a few fumbles but a growing realization that the architecture of these songs is strong indeed. The new “Vertigo” has slight Middle Eastern instrumentations and an acoustic guitar-driven “Sunday Bloody Sunday” sounds more like a coffee-house prayer than a strident demand, but they’re still gorgeous.
Claude Monet’s older sibling is the focus of a landmark Paris exhibit illuminating the hitherto unknown role Leon Monet played in the French impressionist painter’s life and art. Leon was a color chemist and is now understood to have been critical in the emergence of Claude’s commercial success and the famed color palette that created masterpieces like the Water Lilies series. The exhibit curator says “it’s never been known before but without Leon there would not have really been a Monet the artist the world knows today." Leon financed Claude and also employed him as a color assistant. That was a pivotal moment for the painter but also possibly for the emergence of impressionism.
Stephen Sondheim’s last musical will be given an off-Broadway stage this year. Once known as “Square One,” “Here We Are” will begin performances this September at The Shed’s Griffin Theater with a book by David Ives. Ives is best known for the play “Venus in Fur.” Joe Mantello will direct. The musical is an adaptation of two films by Spanish surrealist director Luis Buñuel, “The Discreet Charm of the Bourgeoisie” and “The Exterminating Angel.” It was initially workshopped in 2016 with plans for a production at The Public Theater, which did not happen. Sondheim died in 2021.
