CULTURAL EVENTS AT CONCORDIA COLLEGE

WELCOME

GREETINGS FROM CONCORDIA COLLEGE Greetings from Concordia College and welcome to our 2018-19 series of cultural, musical and educational events.

Our year begins with the Faith, Reason and World Affairs Symposium “Power Plays: Why Gender Matters,” which explores how our personal interactions and sociocultural institutions function to produce, maintain and/or challenge gender inequities globally, regionally and in our own Concordia community.

The Symposium is free and open to the public with the intention of engaging the broader community as well as our campus community. We hope you will plan on attending all or part of this dynamic conference.

You’ll find a rich variety of visual and performing arts events, lectures and presentations performed by our students, our faculty and renowned guest artists and scholars from our region, country and the world. The Cultural Events Series, theatre, art and lecture schedules, along with information on special events such as the 92nd annual Concordia Christmas Concerts and the 14th annual National Book Awards are highlighted on the following pages.

We’re sure you’ll find something of interest!

Please join us for these exciting events at Concordia!

PROJECT TRIO

7:30 p.m. Friday, Oct. 12 Christiansen Recital Hall Bursting onto the scene with its landmark videos, right out of the internet generation, PROJECT Trio is a musical experience defining a new level of entertainment. A passionate, high-energy chamber music ensemble comprised of three virtuosic composer/performers on cello, flute and bass from Brooklyn, N.Y. PROJECT Trio was forged out of a collective desire to draw new and diverse audiences by performing top-quality music. Blending classical training with an eclectic taste in musical styles, PROJECT Trio has made an impact on audiences of all ages.

DUO 1717 7:30 p.m. Tuesday, Nov. 13 Christiansen Recital Hall A classical crossover duo, baritone Jean Bernard Cerin and pianist Veena K. Kulkarni fuse art, folk, world and religious idioms to celebrate individual communities while also creating spaces for intercultural dialogue. With IndianFilipino-American and Haitian backgrounds, Kulkarni and Cerin synthesize a broad cultural heritage with their rigorous western classical training to explore music from all around the globe. Together, they bring new sounds to conventional classical music audiences and share the rich tradition of western art music with new audiences.

CULTURAL EVENTS

BILL BOWERS MIME ARTIST 7:30 p.m. Tuesday, Feb. 26 Frances Frazier Comstock Theatre Main Stage Today, the opportunity to make the ancient art form of mime accessible to a contemporary audience drives Bill Bowers’ professional artistry. Bowers is a mime who also talks, deftly interspersing narrative with stunning visual portraits. He marries classical aspects with contemporary sound effects and music, poses present-day considerations through physical tapestries and invites a wholly transformative look at the humor, pain and beauty of our humanity through simplicity and grace.

THE MODERN TRIO 7:30 p.m. Friday, March 29 Christiansen Recital Hall When three extraordinary musicians combine their eclectic musical interests with internationally recognized classical performance ability, you get The Modern Trio. Concordia faculty and Fargo-Moorhead Symphony Orchestra members Sonja Harasim, Russell Peterson and Jay Hershberger formed the trio in 2017 which blends the unlikely (but brilliant) matchup of violin, saxophone and piano. Their program is varied and can encompass everything from Argentinian tango, British progressive rock, American smooth jazz, a bit of Mahler and Shostakovich, new compositions created just for the trio, and maybe a little country and western thrown in for fun. What you will certainly get with The Modern Trio is an enjoyable, awe-inspiring, and thoroughly entertaining performance experience.

SYMPOSIUM

2018 Faith, Reason and World Affairs Symposium Tuesday, Sept. 18-Wednesday, Sept. 19 For people in nations where laws prohibit gender discrimination, it may seem as though gender is no longer a pressing issue. And yet beliefs about gender differences continue to influence our daily lives, often when we are unaware, and often in ways that contribute to gender injustice. To understand how power and gender are inextricably linked, we must explore how our personal interactions and sociocultural institutions function to produce, maintain, and/or challenge gender inequities globally, regionally, and in our own Concordia community.

The 2018 Faith, Reason, and World Affairs Symposium will examine the ways in which gender and power intersect with other forms of difference, including race, class, sexuality, religion, (dis)ability, and so on. We will explore relationships between gender and power in a variety of contexts: in the classroom and the workforce, in intimate relationships and political systems, in economic pursuits and religious faith.

We will also discuss empowerment and action as we uphold the college’s commitment to engaged citizenship in the world. This exploration can empower us to envision and create a world in which all lives are equally respected and valued.

The symposium is open to the public.

No registration is required for this free event.

CONCENTRIC INTERSECTION Monday, Nov. 19-Monday, Dec. 17 Public reception: 4-5:30 p.m. Monday, Nov. 19 Artist remarks: 4:30 p.m. Monday, Nov. 19 “Concentric Intersection” showcases a collaborative exhibition between Bradford Hansen-Smith, a sculptor and explorer of the circle form, and members of our campus and broader communities. The circle has had profound meaning throughout history and cultures. Hansen-Smith will guide participants in a circle folding workshop designed to deepen understanding of the circle and inspire participants to explore the circle in their own areas of study. Says Hansen-Smith, “My exploration is as much about unity as understanding the nature of geometry and the enumerable possibilities of expression that satisfies my need to wonder… It is about movement and change.”
