In an effort to get "with it," Richard Johnson and Richard Turley decided to skew young for a change. On July 25, we invited the film actress Leelee Sobieski, who is 19 years old (we've got cats older than that); the painter Isca Greenfield-Sanders, who is 23; the concert pianist Soheil Nasseri, also 23; and, for gravity, the hip-hop impresario Damon Dash, who's pushing 32. We were welcomed at the Monkey Bar in the Hotel Elysee on East 54th Street by director of operations, Mathew Glazier. This sophisticated watering hole has been the refuge of theatrical legends like Tennessee, Tallulah, Marlene, and Noel. The cuisine is superb and the honky-tonk piano in the bar never takes a break. Oh yes, the plugs: Leelee has two films, Max and L'Idole , at the Toronto Film Festival this month. Isca shows at Lombard-Freid on West 26th Street.

Extractions: Review of Soheil Nasseri's Concert in New York Times of Sept 26, 2002 A Young Pianist With a Big Appetite By ALLAN KOZINN Soheil Nasseri, a 23-year-old pianist who was born in Santa Monica, Calif., and studied in Baltimore and New York, is playing four recitals in New York this season, and the first, on Sept. 17 at Weill Recital Hall, showed him to be a pianist with a consistently interesting interpretive imagination, a secure technique and broad tastes. With the exception of Schubert's big A major Sonata (D. 959), the program was devoted to premieres, and with the Schubert representing the Viennese mainstream, the other works were by composers from Israel (Ron Yedidia), Mexico (Samuel Zyman) and England (Kaikhosru Shapurji Sorabji). Mr. Nasseri opened the program with a strongly accented, clear-textured account of the Schubert. Where there were choices to be made in matters of weight and coloration, Mr. Nasseri tended to favor responses that illuminated Schubert's Classicism over his Romantic breadth - a sensible approach in this sonata. That isn't to say that tempestuousness was absent; there were some strikingly dark, even brawny moments in the Andantino. But the prevailing impression was of brightness and transparency. Counterbalancing the Schubert, at the end of the recital, was Sorabji's Sonata No. (composed for the work published as Sonata No. 1), a big work composed in 1917 but listed as a world premiere. That is possible: Sorabji was a prolific composer of huge piano works, but until the mid-1970's he prohibited public performances of his works in the belief that pianists could not do them justice. The Sonata No. looks monstrous in manuscript: it is written on three staves, with dense chordal figures that leave no finger free for long. Mr. Nasseri summoned the power demanded by the work's grander proclamations, but he showed that there is a great deal more subtlety in the work; indeed, the most compelling passages were those in which Sorabji's thick textures were spun out more delicately.

Extractions: Byline: Alexandra Jacobs Say hi to Soheil (pronounced So-hail) Nasseri, a limpid-eyed, cleft-chinned classical pianist trying to make it in New York. His first name means "a star in the sky that appears infrequently." "I think it may be Venus," he said. He lives in a 187-square-foot, sparsely furnished studio without air-conditioning in the Tudor City section of midtown. On a typical day, he practices for about eight hours on his brown Steinway "five-three" (somewhere between a concert piano and a baby grand), a framed picture of Beethoven staring down at him. At 11 p.m. he pauses for dinner: a pre-cooked chicken from Gristede's, perhaps, or a Caesar salad with bottled dressing. After that, he hits the clubsand then, baby, watch out! Mr. Nasseri, 23, was sitting in Cipriani downtown the other night, sipping his second Bellini and smelling of YSL Pour Homme cologne. He was dressed in the same loose-fitting white linen shirt and black pants that he'd worn for a concert at the Caramoor Festival in Katonah, N.Y., the day before, when he'd played to an adoring audience of mostly senior citizens. "This is Donna Karan," he said, rubbing the shirt between his thumb and forefinger. "And when I put right on my program 'Wardrobe courtesy of Donna Karan of New York,' it says to people in my public: 'This guy's different from the average classical musician, who doesn't care how they look.'"
