live cinematic concert. Uniquely filmed performances are projected alongside seven exhilarating on-stage musicians. All musicians, live and virtual, perform as one epic global orchestra. Never before seen on such a scale, this mind blowing orchestra delivers a truly ground-breaking live cinematic performance and is described as one of the centerpieces of World War One commemoration. Acclaimed New Zealand composer John Psathas brings together a stunning 7-piece international ensemble with 150 on screen musicians descended from opposing forces of the great war. Filmed on significant battlefields around the world these collaborations deliver a phenomenal performance of visual and musical expression. Stratis Psaradelis, Sofia Labropoulou, Caleb Robinson, Vangelis Karipis, Jolanta Kossakowska, Joe Callwood and James Illingworth take to the stage in a powerful, multi-layered exchange. We now wage war on our own species. But even at our worst, humanity and empathy continue to survive. No Man’s Land is, above all else, an unashamed commitment to optimism and is a statement to nations who currently find themselves at war. Peace is possible. The story of No Man’s Land is told in six unique parts… “Why musicians travelling in the footsteps of soldiers 100 years ago? If we could go back in time and say to those on the battlefields “guess what happens here in 100 years” – would they believe us? If we said the same thing to those fighting now, would they believe us? Would we believe ourselves? We now wage war on our own species. But even at our worst, humanity and empathy continue to survive. Our story culminates in acts of kindness: soldiers from opposing sides, ‘enemies’, offering each other water, a cigarette, a shoulder to lean on. Even – incredibly – in what is surely one of the most bizarre and dangerous inventions of the human mind: a place called no man’s land.” John Psathas - Composer 5 PART ONE Journey Soldiers 100 years ago and musicians of today are seen tracing the same tracks across our planet, leaving behind home and kin, and arriving at last at the exact same locations, full of foreboding for what lies ahead.

It should be compulsory viewing for all world leaders! My one hope is that mankind can learn to live without war, and you have created a powerful demonstration of its futility.” Audience member feedback Auckland Festival of the Arts Auckland Town Hall, Auckland, New Zealand March 4th 2016 6 PART TWO Oh Beloved Oh Beloved gives voice to the yearning of the women left behind; their pleading for the son, the brother, the father, the beloved to be safe, to be alive, to come back.

    DOI: 10.2478/rae-2021-0006 Review of Artistic Education no. 21 2021 35-45 6. THEODOR ROGALSKI, CONDUCTOR, COMPOSER AND PROFESSOR. 3 ROMANIAN DANCES, CONDUCTING STYLISTIC ANALYSIS 13 Iulian Rusu Abstract: Dancing in the culture of all peoples is a form of artistic manifestation with various functions, mystical, hunting warriors, etc., with deep roots in the very beginning of the first forms of organization of human communities. At national level, our people are the keeper of old and wonderful folk traditions, with dances of great wealth and variety. In our popular creation, the choreographic term “danse” is called “play”. Romanian dances have various ritual, ceremonial, or party functions, related to specific occasions. As a spatial deployment, they are divided into several categories: group, band, couple and soloistic. Theodor Rogalski in the Three Romanian dances highlights the beauty and vitality of the character of our people, especially through orchestration and the timbral coloring of the instruments. The conducting analysis of the 3 Romanian dances can also be a teaching material that is designed to guide the young musicians on the way to musical analysis. Key words: analysis, pedagogue, composer, dance, rhythmic plasticity 1. Introduction - Theodor Rogalski14 He was one of Alfonso Castaldi's disciples at the Bucharest Conservatory between 1919 and 1920, continued in Leipzig between 1920 and 1923, studying the conducting with Siegfried Karg-Elent and at Schola Cantorum from Paris 1924-1926, with Vincent d'Indy, Maurice Ravel. Returning home, he became a Cho repeater to the Romanian Opera in Bucharest between 1926-1930. In 1930, he conducted the Opera Boris Godunov by Modest Mussorgski with the famous Russian bass Teodor Saliapin, among the others.

  • November 2014
    Share This: November 2014 Notes from the Director Greetings from Brandeis and the beautiful days of autumn in New England. It’s been a very full summer, highlighted by the Coming soon: Acting Together published International Peace Research Association (IPRA) conference in online with Alexander Street Press - Human Rights Studies Online collection Istanbul. Arts and Peace Commission meetings were robust, with presenters from every continent, practitioners in theatre and music especially well represented. A section of this newsletter is devoted to impressions from several presenters, in hopes of making the IPRA conversations accessible to those who were unable to attend. My own reflections are here. Before Istanbul, I spent a few days at La MaMa’s retreat for theatre artists in Umbria, Italy, engaging in conversation with participants in Catherine Filloux’s workshop for playwrights. New Minor at Brandeis: Creativity, the Also this summer, we made plans for Acting Together resources – including e- Arts, and Social Transformation book versions of the anthologies – to be available to university libraries through Alexander Street Press, an online publisher, in their Human Rights Studies collection. Users of the e-books will be able to follow links to clips of performances described in many of the chapters. We hope this makes the Acting Together resources even more dynamic and extends the reach of the stories the project’s exemplary artist-peacebuilders. A new undergraduate minor in Creativity, the Arts and Social Transformation goes live this year. We’d be delighted to confer with colleagues at other colleges and universities who might like to build support for similar programs at their institutions.

  • NOSTALGIA, EMOTIONALITY, and ETHNO-REGIONALISM in PONTIC PARAKATHI SINGING by IOANNIS TSEKOURAS DISSERTATION Submitted in Parti
    NOSTALGIA, EMOTIONALITY, AND ETHNO-REGIONALISM IN PONTIC PARAKATHI SINGING BY IOANNIS TSEKOURAS DISSERTATION Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Musicology in the Graduate College of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, 2016 Urbana, Illinois Doctoral Committee: Associate Professor Donna A. Buchanan, Chair Professor Emeritus Thomas Turino Professor Gabriel Solis Professor Maria Todorova ABSTRACT This dissertation explores the multilayered connections between music, emotionality, social and cultural belonging, collective memory, and identity discourse. The ethnographic case study for the examination of all these relations and aspects is the Pontic muhabeti or parakathi. Parakathi refers to a practice of socialization and music making that is designated insider Pontic Greek. It concerns primarily Pontic Greeks or Pontians, the descendants of the 1922 refugees from Black Sea Turkey (Gr. Pontos), and their identity discourse of ethno-regionalism. Parakathi references nightlong sessions of friendly socialization, social drinking, and dialogical participatory singing that take place informally in coffee houses, taverns, and households. Parakathi performances are reputed for their strong Pontic aesthetics, traditional character, rich and aesthetically refined repertoire, and intense emotionality. Singing in parakathi performances emerges spontaneously from verbal socialization and emotional saturation. Singing is described as a confessional expression of deeply personal feelings
