RCI to become Wyndham Exchange; says Carmel jobs are safe

Despite a swooning economy that has hammered the time-share condominium industry over the last 18 months, Resort Condominiums
International continues to outperform its market. That’s not to say there hasn’t been some pain at
the company formerly headquartered in Carmel.

Catherine Russell

Oct. 30-31
Cabaret at the Connoisseur Room
While the name may not be familiar, I promise that
you’ve heard Catherine Russell sing. While she’s earned her R&B and pop cred from working with the likes of Paul Simon,
Chaka Khan and David Bowie, and released two acclaimed solo discs, she’s also had a parallel career as a top go-to performer
for commercials. As such, she’s lent her very flexible voice to ads for Oil of Olay, Dairy Queen, Wishbone and J.C. Penney.
You can hear some of those oh-so-brief musical moments here.

Gingold Centennial Celebration

Nov. 2
Basile Theatre, Indiana History Center
In celebration of what would have been legendary
violin teacher Josef Gingold’s 100th birthday, the Indianapolis Violin Competition of Indianapolis presents this tribute concert.

I have a selfish take on this event. The day I moved to Indianapolis I suffered through an awful theater production.
Fearing the worst, I communicated to my yet-to-arrive family that maybe Indianapolis was going to require more of a cultural
adjustment than I thought. But just a few days later, I attended a Circle Theatre concert tribute to Gingold, the visionary
violinist who founded and led the International Violin Competition of Indianapolis. Saddened that I never had the chance to
see Gingold play, I nonetheless had my faith restored in what Indy could put together.

Could this one-time-only
event rival that one? The talent is certainly there, including Andres Cardenes, Miriam Fried, Bella Hristova, Nai-Yuan Hu,
Jamie Laredo and the Indiana University Violin Virtuosi. For details, click here.

Dania, comic magician Les Arnold, and cabaret singer Christina Bianco. For details, click here.
