    Ian Page Conducts UK Premiere of Hasse's Piramo E Tisbe with His

    Ian Page conducts UK premiere of Hasse’s Piramo e Tisbe with his ensemble The Mozartists and soloists Chiara Skerath, Kiandra Howarth and Gwilym Bowen Chiara Skerath, Ian Page and The Mozartists © Ben Ealovega Hasse Piramo e Tisbe ¦ 28 March ¦ Cadogan Hall, 7:30pm Ian Page and The Mozartists present the UK premiere of Hasse’s two-act opera Piramo e Tisbe at Cadogan Hall on 28 March. They will be joined by two of their recently announced Associate Artists, Chiara Skerath and Gwilym Bowen (who will be making his company debut), and Australian soprano Kiandra Howarth. Ian Page will give a pre-concert talk to introduce the opera and explore its background. Piramo e Tisbe was first performed in Vienna in the autumn of 1768, just over 250 years ago, yet has never received a performance in the UK until now. In a letter to a friend, Hasse commented that the opera was “among the best works I have written…while composing it I always felt inspiration”. The story of Piramo e Tisbe is drawn from Book Four of Ovid’s Metamorphoses, and tells the tragic story of two young lovers’ failed attempt to elope. Ian Page writes: “We performed an aria from Piramo e Tisbe at our 1768 retrospective concert at Wigmore Hall last January, and we were all overwhelmed by the beauty of the music. It prompted me to explore the rest of the opera in more detail, and the more I familiarised myself with it the more straightforward the decision became to perform the complete work.

When referring to this work, full bibliographic details including the author, title, awarding institution and date of the thesis must be given. Baudelairism and Modernity in the Poetry of Scapigliatura Alessandro Cabiati PhD The University of Edinburgh 2017 Abstract In the 1860s, the Italian Scapigliati (literally ‘the dishevelled ones’) promoted a systematic refusal of traditional literary and artistic values, coupled with a nonconformist and rebellious lifestyle. The Scapigliatura movement is still under- studied, particularly outside Italy, but it plays a pivotal role in the transition from Italian Romanticism to Decadentism. One of the authors most frequently associated with Scapigliatura in terms of literary influence as well as eccentric Bohemianism is the French poet Charles Baudelaire, certainly amongst the most innovative and pioneering figures of nineteenth-century European poetry. Studies on the relationship between Baudelaire and Scapigliatura have commonly taken into account only the most explicit and superficial Baudelairian aspects of Scapigliatura’s poetry, such as the notion of aesthetic revolt against a conventional idea of beauty, which led the Scapigliati to introduce into their poetry morally shocking and unconventional subjects.

And ifthe body were not the soul, what is the soul? -Walt Whitman, I Sing the Body Electric American Sign Language is a language of the body. It's a language of gesture, of facial expression, of sight and touch. As an actor, a linguist, and a dramaturg (and one who was raised on a heavy diet of Brecht's Epic Theater), I'm drawn to ASL as a medium for theater, for storytelling, and for connection and communication. This thesis is an exploration of my experiences with ASL as a literary and theatrical medium-my experiments in ASL translation, my understanding of Deaf theater, and my musings on communication, translation, and creation. The thesis is naturally bipartite. ASL being a highly visual, four-dimensional language, my translation work is presented in video format. The paper (or, more likely, pixel) portion of my thesis is a window into my process.

Having had the honor to lay before my Friends and the Public an “Analysis of Country Dancing,” the success of which so far exceeded my expectations, that I am again tempted to try their indulgence by presenting them with the Treasures of Terpsichore, which I flatter myself will not only be found an useful; but a requisite companion for the Ballroom; ii for differing from the Country-dance books published by music-sellers, (which are generally The treasures of Terpsichore; or, A companion for the ballroom.

Wt^ Wilhelm BachailS, most exacting of pianists, finds in the Baldwin the perfect medium of musical ex- pression. Acclaimed the pianist of pianists, beloved by an ever-growing public, Bachaus has played the Baldwin exclusively for twelve years, in his home and on all his American tours. That loveliness and purity of tone which appeals to Bachaus and to every exacting musician is found in all Baldwins; alike in the Concert Grand, in the smaller Grands, in the Uprights. The history of the Baldwin is the history of an ideal. ^albtotn $tano Company 20 EAST 54th STREET NEW YORK CITY CARNEGIE HALL - - - NEW YORK Forty-second Season in New York FORTY-SEVENTH SEASON 1927-1928 INC.

    Reality Is Broken a Why Games Make Us Better and How They Can Change the World E JANE Mcgonigal

    Reality Is Broken a Why Games Make Us Better and How They Can Change the World E JANE McGONIGAL THE PENGUIN PRESS New York 2011 ADVANCE PRAISE FOR Reality Is Broken “Forget everything you know, or think you know, about online gaming. Like a blast of fresh air, Reality Is Broken blows away the tired stereotypes and reminds us that the human instinct to play can be harnessed for the greater good. With a stirring blend of energy, wisdom, and idealism, Jane McGonigal shows us how to start saving the world one game at a time.” —Carl Honoré, author of In Praise of Slowness and Under Pressure “Reality Is Broken is the most eye-opening book I read this year. With awe-inspiring ex­ pertise, clarity of thought, and engrossing writing style, Jane McGonigal cleanly exploded every misconception I’ve ever had about games and gaming. If you thought that games are for kids, that games are squandered time, or that games are dangerously isolating, addictive, unproductive, and escapist, you are in for a giant surprise!” —Sonja Lyubomirsky, Ph.D., professor of psychology at the University of California, Riverside, and author of The How of Happiness: A Scientific Approach to Getting the Life You Want “Reality Is Broken will both stimulate your brain and stir your soul. Once you read this remarkable book, you’ll never look at games—or yourself—quite the same way.” —Daniel H. Pink, author of Drive and A Whole New Mind “The path to becoming happier, improving your business, and saving the world might be one and the same: understanding how the world’s best games work.
