2021-2022 Season and Annual Membership Dear Friends 2021-2022 SEASON AND ANNUAL MEMBERSHIP DEAR FRIENDS, We are so excited to present the upcoming 2021-2022 Arts at Queens season to you. In many ways, the past year has proven how the arts are such a vital part of our lives. Despite not being able to present a full calendar of in-person events, “Creativity exhibits and performances, Arts at Queens continued to bring engaging, thought- provoking and enlightening opportunities for our students and citizens. takes courage.” - HENRI MATISSE Even though we were physically distanced, we still came together — albeit creatively. I want to share just a sampling of the ways in which students and faculty of Queens connected with their peers, with the broader artistic community and with the world. Remote learning resulted in an uplifting video performance during the holiday season by the Queens Chamber Singers and Choral Union produced in collaboration with Paula Azuaje ‘20 of the Knight School of Communication. As part of our annual Faculty Showcase, Queens arts faculty joined artists and fellows from the Penland School of Craft to present EXPLORATIONS in our Gambrell Center galleries. Students visiting the exhibit perused a variety of medium, color, line and design, and then translated their experiences with written reflections and creative narratives. Acclaimed poet Marcus Jackson led a Writing of Poetry workshop attended by Creative Literacy students and others from the English and Creative Writing Department, where he discussed writing and the creative process. Access to visiting writers enables students to not only gain real-world knowledge but also provides them with creative inspiration. Arts at Queens continues to thrive as a learning environment for a well-rounded education, a vehicle for civic engagement and a welcoming place for all of our Charlotte neighbors. All of this creative, courageous achievement has been possible only with your support. We hope you will join us as members for the 2021-2022 season as we come together again.

  • Weekly Commentary
    Weekly Commentary October 21, 2019 The Mother Of All Golden Oldies More than 3,400 years ago in the Mediterranean port city of Ugarit, now part of Syria, an unknown composer wrote a hymn in praise of Nikkal, the wife of the moon god. The words and music were carefully chiseled into a stone tablet. It is the oldest surviving song in the world. The tablet was discovered in the 1950s, but it wasn't until the 1970s that University of California at Berkeley Professor Anne Kilmer was able to decipher some of the cuneiform figures on it as musical notation. She recognized them from other Babylonian tablets she had already analyzed, including a four-thousand-year-old instruction manual for tuning an ancient stringed instrument called a lyre. The song appeared to have been written in a seven-note scale similar to the one we use today. Amazingly, Kilmer was able to reconstruct a version of the song note for note, so that the lost tune could be played once again for modern ears. A little late for royalties, however. The song is written in the ancient Hurrian language. The exact lyrics are unclear, although the name of Nikkal is easily recognizable, and Kilmer has translated one phrase as "Thou lovest them in thy heart." Versions of the "Hymn to Nikkal" have been recorded by several modern artist including musicologist Richard Crocker and Syrian Pianist Malek Jandali. The exact location of the Bronze Age city of Ugarit was unknown to modern archaeologist until a syrian farmer accidentally opened an old tomb while plowing a field.

Or more accurately, by the time our March meeting convenes, we will have sprung forward for daylight savings time, meaning that at least one absent minded member will show up for Performance Hour just in time for Big Band Practice. If you enjoy listening to music as much as you enjoy playing it with the Folk Music Society, I have some suggestions for you on new music. The Punch Brothers resemble a traditional string band -- guitar, banjo, mandolin, fiddle and standup bass. Lead by the virtuoso mandolin player, Chris Thile, the Punch Brothers stay true to the traditional string band format, while using their enormous talents to also make music like a jazz quintet or a classical ensemble.

  • Wednesday, November 4 the Englert Theatre Hancher University of Iowa 2 CHRIS THILE
    “…the most remarkable mandolinist in the world.” —Independent (London) Chris Thile Wednesday, November 4 The Englert Theatre Hancher University of Iowa 2 CHRIS THILE Multiple Grammy Award-winner and MacArthur Fellow Chris Thile, a member of Punch Brothers and Nickel Creek, is a mandolin virtuoso, composer, and vocalist. With his broad outlook that encompasses classical, rock, jazz, and bluegrass, Thile transcends the borders of conventionally circumscribed genres, creating a distinctly American canon and a new musical aesthetic for performers and audiences alike. As a soloist, Thile has released five albums including his most recent released in 2013, Bach: Partitas and Sonatas, Vol.1, which was produced by renowned bassist Edgar Meyer. In February 2013, Thile won a Grammy for his work on The Goat Rodeo Sessions, collaborating with Yo-Yo Ma, Edgar Meyer, and Stuart Duncan. Then, in September 2014, Thile and Meyer released their latest album collaboration, Bass + Mandolin, which won the Grammy for Best Contemporary Instrumental Album. Punch Brothers released their latest album, The Phosphorescent Blues, in January 2015. On this new program, Thile performs solo violin works by J.S. Bach on the mandolin, as well as his own compositions and contemporary music. Selections will be announced from the stage. 3 Las Cafeteras Meets Iowa at the Corner of Art and Activism Las Cafeteras participated in a range of activities during their weeklong residency with Hancher, which focused on celebrating diversity, building and strengthening communities, and sharing the Latino cultural traditions of Son Jarocho. In advance of their September 25th Club Hancher performance, the group visited with third and fourth graders at Lucas Elementary, English Language Learners at City High School, and theatre, arts management, history, and rhetoric students at the University of Iowa.

  • A Prairie Home Companion”: First Broadcast (July 6, 1974) Added to the National Registry: 2003 Essay by Chuck Howell (Guest Post)*
    “A Prairie Home Companion”: First Broadcast (July 6, 1974) Added to the National Registry: 2003 Essay by Chuck Howell (guest post)* Garrison Keillor “Well, it's been a quiet week in Lake Wobegon, Minnesota, my hometown, out on the edge of the prairie.” On July 6, 1974, before a crowd of maybe a dozen people (certainly less than 20), a live radio variety program went on the air from the campus of Macalester College in St. Paul, MN. It was called “A Prairie Home Companion,” a name which at once evoked a sense of place and a time now past--recalling the “Little House on the Prairie” books, the once popular magazine “The Ladies Home Companion” or “The Prairie Farmer,” the oldest agricultural publication in America (founded 1841). The “Prairie Farmer” later bought WLS radio in Chicago from Sears, Roebuck & Co. and gave its name to the powerful clear channel station, which blanketed the middle third of the country from 1928 until its sale in 1959. The creator and host of the program, Garrison Keillor, later confided that he had no nostalgic intent, but took the name from “The Prairie Home Cemetery” in Moorhead, MN. His explanation is both self-effacing and humorous, much like the program he went on to host, with some sabbaticals and detours, for the next 42 years. Origins Gary Edward “Garrison” Keillor was born in Anoka, MN on August 7, 1942 and raised in nearby Brooklyn Park. His family were not (contrary to popular opinion) Lutherans, instead belonging to a strict fundamentalist religious sect known as the Plymouth Brethren.

  • Exploring the Bluegrass Nation As an Imagined Community
    NOTIONS OF NATION: EXPLORING THE BLUEGRASS NATION AS AN IMAGINED COMMUNITY A Thesis by JORDAN L. LANEY Submitted to the Graduate School at Appalachian State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF ARTS May 2013 Department of Appalachian Studies NOTIONS OF NATIONS: EXPLORING THE BLUEGRASS NATION AS AN IMAGINED COMMUNITY A Thesis by JORDAN LANEY May 2013 APPROVED BY: Nancy S. Love Chairperson, Thesis Committee David Haney Member, Thesis Committee Fred Hay Member, Thesis Committee Patricia D. Beaver Director, Center for Appalachian Studies Edelma D. Huntley Dean, Cratis Williams Graduate School Copyright by Jordan L. Laney 2013 All Rights Reserved Abstract NOTIONS OF NATIONS: EXPLORING THE BLUEGRASS NATION AS AN IMAGINED COMMUNITY Jordan L. Laney B.F.A., Goddard College M.A., Appalachian State University Chairperson: Nancy S. Love While bluegrass music has been a topic of conversation within the discipline of Appalachian Studies, research concerning the emergence of the community in cyberspace is relatively rare. Appalachian music’s role as a transnational facilitator is groundbreaking in areas of social networking, and as a member of the bluegrass community, I am fascinated by the communication that results now that members of that community can connect to friends in Europe, Japan, and France as easily as to next door neighbors. Noting that music is what brings these individuals together, this study addresses ways in which the bluegrass community embodies an imagined community and uses political language to gather in cyberspace. The study is not meant to discredit the direct ties the music has to Appalachia, but rather to applaud and understand the work of enthusiasts in the field who have found ways to mobilize the music through the Internet.
