CELEBRATE BROOKLYN Prospect Park Bandshell. It's bound to be compared to the summer concert series in Central Park, but given the quality of the programming here, and the stately beauty of the park and the bandshell, that's O.K. The series turns 25 this year (older than SummerStage), and opens with Joan Armatrading on June 12. There's also a Hal Willner tribute to Leonard Cohen with Rufus and Martha Wainwright and Kate and Anna McGarrigle; the annual African concert with Salif Keita and Oliver Mtukudzi, and the Derek Trucks Band, among others.
