José van Dam (Lincoln Center Great Performers 2004-2005)Are NY's Music Clubs Under Siege?
Skyrocketing rents are putting some celebrated Downtown music clubs out of business (including Luna Lounge, Fez, Smalls) or on the brink of collapse (Tonic). Today, Time Out New York music editor Mike Wolf stops by to discuss what happens when artists move out and gentrification moves in. Also: veteran bass-baritone José van Dam has recorded nearly 150 roles, appeared in numerous world premieres, and won nearly all the major awards given to singers. The singer returns to Lincoln Center for a pair of song recitals next week, just as he's finishing a run at the Metropolitan Opera of Debussy's Pélléas et Mélisande. He takes time out of his busy schedule to pay us a visit.
