Rivers had started at the first of those
musical accents, as if a thunderbolt had split a cloud over his head, he stood yet, at the close of the sentence, in the same attitude in which the speaker had surprised him--his arm resting on the gate, his face directed towards the west.
There was unobstructed admittance on that side also; and at the door sat my old friend Nelly Dean, sewing and singing a song; which was often interrupted from within by harsh words of scorn and intolerance, uttered in far from
musical accents.
It is such a
musical accent. I loved his voice so much, he taught me to say a few Scottish phrases.
Parker and Stone have demonstrated their subversive brand of humor since 1997 on the animated "South Park" and the 1999 movie musical "South Park: Bigger, Longer and Uncut." Robert Lopez (credited here alongside the duo for music and lyrics), brings a dose of the musical-comedy knowhow he demonstrated as co-scribe on "Avenue Q," while Casey Nicholaw (who co-directed the show with Parker and choreographed) has never met a
musical accent that couldn't be punched up by a broad gesture, as evidenced by his work as choreographer on "Spamalot" and choreographer-helmer of "The Drowsy Chaperone."
After five years exploring the hip-hop/drum 'n' bass jazz interface, Pine is now ready for another
musical accent, this residency marking the premiere airing of material from his forthcoming Back In The Day album.
Tonight, however, at Scott's the

She hadn't been around to witness Alton's original choreography, but she did go back to look at Gene Kelly's dancing in the movies--"with eyes of today," she hastens to point out in her
musical accent, a legacy from Argentina by way of Paris.
Theatrical prospects appear mild at best, although older auds may respond to the comedy-drama's sweet sentiments and
musical accent.
In stark contrast to a vocabulary of erratic twitches and primal contortions--telling details made potent by Rousseve's immeasurable performing talents--these new sections (the beginnings of a future REALITY work tentatively titled The Jazz Project) revel in the pleasures of the eight-count phrase and the obvious
musical accent. Slithering and careening around the stage in juicy circular patterns, Rousseve exalts in the elegant strains of Billy Strayhorn and the unadulterated delight of a little shimmy, a little shake, and a little soft shoe.
Wheeldon's response to music can be subtle, as when a double
musical accent is underlined once by heel clicks, then left as counterpoint to legato movement.
Ian Ocampo and Denise Parungao, paired once more after their much applauded pairing in 'Carmen,' are sharp, almost athletic, minding
musical accents with precision.
