| | Cabrillo Music Festival - Lost in the Stars |
 | | The poignant story of Lost in the Stars, Kurt Weill's last Broadway piece before his untimely death at age 50, comes from the source of his inspiration, the novel about South African apartheid, Cry the Beloved Country. |
 | | It is in honor of the centenary of Weill's birth that Marin chose excerpts from Lost in the Stars and Marie Galante, to be performed by Réaux, who is considered the leading American interpreter of Weill's songs. |
 | | She can sing with a disarming sweetness, gentle longing, passionate regret, deep anguish, white-hot rage, engaging wit, high hopes and worldly-wise cynicism, the voice of innocence and the voice of experience - often in the course of a single song," said Richard Dyer of The Boston Globe. |
