Detroit Opera orchestra to set George Clinton, Parliament-Funkadelic hits to classical music

AP News DETROIT (AP) — “I was strung out on Bach, and Beethoven was my thing. I dug jazz, I dug rock, anything with a swing” — or so goes Funkadelic's 1978 groove “Cholly (Funk Getting Ready to Roll!).”

Now Parliament-Funkadelic is going orchestral.

The Detroit Opera will showcase some of funk maestro George Clinton 's and P-Funk's greatest hits this weekend, performed by violins, cellos, horns and other instruments tuned more for arias or sonatas than for tunes like “Flash Light,” “(Not Just) Knee Deep” and “One Nation Under a Groove.”

“The longer you’re exposed to the cold, the worse it is,” said Dr. Hans House, a professor of emergency medicine at the University of Iowa. “The body can handle cold temperatures briefly very well, but the prolonged exposure is a problem."

The Sundance Film Festival's big moments and breakout movies

AP News PARK CITY, Utah (AP) — The last Sundance Film Festival in Utah is drawing to a close this weekend.

The Park City gathering was a wistful farewell to the place Robert Redford’s brainchild has called home for over 40 years and launched so many careers. Although the festival isn’t ending — it will start anew in Boulder, Colorado, in 2027 — it did have many, from filmmakers to volunteers, feeling nostalgic about the change whether their Sundance story began in 2022 or 1992.

AP News DALLAS (AP) — Kon Knueppel made two free throws with 4.1 seconds left for a career-high 34 points and the Charlotte Hornets beat the Dallas Mavericks 123-121 on Thursday night, spoiling Duke roommate Cooper Flagg's 49-point game.
