Sanders Theatre: Well Tuned
Boston Globe freelance writer Linda Laban reviewed Brian Stokes Mitchell's Celebrity Series debut Friday night at Harvard's Sanders Theatre:
"On an impressive 'This Nearly Was Mine,' the slightly built Stokes Mitchell ditched the microphone to go 'unplugged.' Afterward he paid tribute to Sanders' beautiful acoustics. 'Rooms are tuned by people,' he declared after reeling off some of the figures who have graced its stage -- everyone from Martin Luther King to Hillary Clinton, he said. 'This room has been well tuned,' he purred. Beyond his terrific talent to interpret a song, that's Stokes Mitchell's appeal. A simple, warm human connection."
