Double and other multiple concertos were quite common in the High Baroque, including lots of examples by Vivaldi and, under his influence, Bach, but the solo concerto dominates the Classical period and beyond, with relatively few notable exceptions—Mozart’s two-piano concerto and sinfonias concertante, Beethoven’s Triple, Brahms’s Double—remaining solidly in today’s orchestral repertoire. This concert’s variety of approaches has as its chronological and stylistic extremes Michael Tippett’s 1939 GER Concerto for Double String Orchestra—one of the composer’s first works of significance— N and the brand-new, up-to-the-moment world premiere of the Double Concerto for Baritone GRAI Saxophone, Percussion, and Orchestra written for BMOP by Pittsburgh-based Mathew CLIVE Rosenblum. -

Lois Dodd 6 July
Modern Art Lois Dodd 6 July – 24 August 2019 Helmet Row, EC1 Private view: Friday 5 July, 6-8pm “Not everybody seems to see the world that they’re living in […] and it’s such a kick, really, seeing things.” – Lois Dodd Modern Art is pleased to announce a major exhibition of paintings by Lois Dodd spanning the last six decades of the artist’s career. This is Dodd’s first exhibition with the gallery and her first survey outside America. The show will include works encompassing the breadth of Dodd’s output and covering key motifs including landscapes, isolated architectural elements, nocturnal scenes and burning houses. Lois Dodd (b. Montclair, New Jersey, 1927) has spent more than seventy years attentively observing the natural and manmade architectures of her surroundings and recording them in paint. Her works preserve the beauty camouflaged in ordinary and occasionally enigmatic details such as windows, wood siding, greenery and washing lines. Dodd’s quintessentially American pictures recount a life spent painting outdoors, much of it in the Delaware Water Gap and the bucolic settings around her summer home in Midcoast Maine, in addition to time in her Manhattan studio. At 92, she continues to produce new work. Lois Dodd attended Cooper Union in New York from 1945 to 1948, where she studied textile design. She also painted throughout her schooling, and soon after graduating would shift her focus entirely to painting. In 1951, she moved to Italy for a year with the sculptor William King. Upon their return, Dodd and King founded a small cooperative gallery in Manhattan’s Tenth Street with Charles Cajori, Angelo Ippolito and Fred Mitchell. -

Isabel Wilkerson to Discuss the Warmth of Other Suns at the Library of Virginia on February 4 Contact: Janice M
Isabel Wilkerson to Discuss The Warmth of Other Suns at the Library of Virginia on February 4 Contact: Janice M. Hathcock For Immediate Release 804-692-3592 On February 4, 2011, at 6:00 PM at the Library of Virginia, Pulitzer Prize–winning journalist Isabel Wilkerson will discuss and sign The Warmth of Other Suns: The Epic Story of America's Great Migration, her moving masterwork chronicling the decades-long migration of black people from the South to the northern and western cities of the United States. From 1915 until 1970 almost six million black people fled the South looking for better life. Wilkerson uses the lives of three unique individuals to tell this story. She interviewed more than a thousand people and researched official records to write this dramatic account of how these journeys changed people and America. Isabel Wilkerson won the 1994 Pulitzer Prize for Feature Writing as Chicago bureau chief of the New York Times , the first black woman to win the prize in journalism and the first African American to win for individual reporting. She has also won the George Polk Award and a John Simon Guggenheim Fellowship. She is currently professor of journalism and director of narrative nonfiction at Boston University. During the Great Migration, her parents journeyed from Georgia and southern Virginia to Washington, D.C., where she was born and reared. The Library of Virginia is located at 800 East Broad Street in historic downtown Richmond. There is free parking for this event in the Library’s underground parking lot, which is accessible from either Eighth or Ninth streets. -
