I'm not sure if anyone can say for sure whether the vocally centered music ofGabrielle Herbst (who performs with a band as GABI) is pop or classical.  Or why it matters.  Here, she'll perform a new opera for voices, chamber ensemble, and electronics; and a vocal/instrumental piece from last year.  So for this show, at least, I'm voting classical.  As if it matters.

MAKE A NIGHT OF IT:  French-Korean fusion Brasserie Seoul continues to present an attractive option.
