HuffPost Arts' Haiku Reviews are regular features where we invite critics to review exhibitions and performances in short form. Some will be in the traditional Haiku form of 5x7x5 syllables, others might be a sonnet or even a string of words. This week George Heymont treats you a musical farce involving a jukebox and a performance by a rather tearjerking clown. Laurence Vittes journeys through a hypnotic rendition of Bach and an orchestra featuring an iPad.

Check out the slideshow and let us know what you think in the comments section below:

Mark Carlson kicks off his 26th Pacific Serenades season with a typically erudite combination of composers in varying moods: coy Beethoven, mysterious Ravel and the world premiere of Laura Karpman's Different Lanes for string quartet and iPad. Karpman studied with Milton Babbitt at Juilliard School; she now profs at UCLA School of Theater, Film and Television and School of Music. The concerts take on different flavors according to the four venues in which they are opklayed: a private home in Pacific Palisades, Neighborhood Church in Pasadena, the very retro UCLA Faculty Room, and the New West Hollywood Library.
