New TV shows, museum openings, film releases and concerts — it’s a lot to keep track of. Let us help. For the week of Jan. 14, seven events in New York and elsewhere not to be missed:

Pop: Lana Del Rey on Tour

At a concert in New York this fall, the singer Lana Del Rey covered Leonard Cohen’s “Chelsea Hotel #2” — a bittersweet, romantic memory song, well tuned to her own emotional register. Cohen is a major influence on her recent work: In an interview with Billboard in December, she cited the late Canadian poet-composer’s secular hymn “Anthem” (“Forget your perfect offering/There is a crack in everything/That’s how the light gets in”) as another favorite.

Unlike her balladeer hero, Ms. Del Rey is a pop star, but she does her best to dodge some of the usual requirements of that role. Writing about another show in September, The New York Times critic Jon Caramanica noted that she appeared “eerily casual, singing and smiling with the ease of someone performing at singer-songwriter night at the local coffee shop.”

This week, she returns to the tristate area for a date at Newark’s Prudential Center on Friday, Jan. 19, preceded by appearances in Toronto (Monday, Jan. 15) and Detroit (Wednesday, Jan. 17). Expect an enthrallingly low-key performance that Mr. Cohen might have appreciated. SIMON VOZICK-LEVINSON
