Louis Prima Jr. Not content to get by on his father’s legacy, Louis Prima Jr. and his band The Witnesses bring new energy and a current attitude to swing music. Since their breakout performance at the New Orleans Jazz and Heritage Festival in 2010, the band has taken the wildest show this side of the 1960s everywhere — from Seattle to Palermo, from clubs to performing arts centers, from casino showrooms to music festivals, and from Access Hollywood Live to PBS. Less concerned with reliving the past of swing music than creating a future for it, Prima says, “With the band’s collective talents and diverse musical tastes, we wind up with a sound unique to this band while staying true to the boisterous Prima style. We didn’t set out to simply write music we thought the fans wanted to hear. We wanted to challenge ourselves musically and also challenge the listener.” From the first thunderous stomps, it will be evident this isn’t your daddy’s swing music. Buckle up for a raucous, wailing good time!

Fabio Luisi Conducts Rachmaninov & Nielsen with Lise de la Salle Maestro Fabio Luisi and the Danish National Symphony Orchestra spotlight three lesser-known 20th century gems! Years after writing his popular Second and Third Piano Concertos, Rachmaninov fled the Russian Revolution and settled in New York. Piano Concerto No. 4, composed largely in America, is suffused with jazzy undertones and bold chromaticism suggestive of Gershwin, but also the aching nostalgia that characterizes much of the Russian’s work. De la Salle deftly navigates the virtuosic passages, evoking Rachmaninov’s romantic pathos.

The concert features Danish composer Carl Nielsen’s final masterpiece, Commotio, written in the style of a Baroque toccata with alternating sections of fantasy and fugue. His enigmatic Sixth Symphony ends the evening, showcasing his adventurous spirit with shifting tonality, an unconventional structure, and a blend of humor and profundity.

Exhibition On Screen: Painting the Modern Garden — Monet to Matisse As spaces rich with color, light, and atmosphere, gardens have long occupied the creative minds of some of the world’s greatest artists. Claude Monet was arguably the most important painter of gardens in the history of art, but Van Gogh, Bonnard, Sorolla, Sargent, Pissarro, and Matisse all saw the garden as a powerful subject. Take a magical journey — from the Royal Academy of Arts, London, to artists’ gardens like Giverny and Seebüll — to discover how these painters cultivated modern gardens to explore expressive motifs, abstract color, decorative design, and utopian ideas. Guided by passionate curators, artists, and garden enthusiasts, this remarkable collection of Impressionist, Postimpressionist, and avant-garde 20th century artists reveals the rise of the garden in popular culture and the public’s enduring fascination with gardens today.

Monday, February 14 at 10:00 a.m.

From the DR Koncerthuset in Copenhagen, this concert calls out to the adventurer in everyone, featuring two outstanding Danish choirs and solos from Christine Nonbo Andersen, Johan Karlström, Jihye Kim, and Tuva Semmingsen.

Semyon Bychkov Conducts Berio & Dvořák with The London Voices Enjoy a classic of Czech music next to a lesser-known masterwork by experimental composer Luciano Berio. The concert opens with Berio’s Sinfonia interpreted by The London Voices and Czech Philharmonic under the baton of Maestro Semyon Bychkov. This choral symphony features eight amplified voices, singing and speaking texts by Claude Lévi-Strauss, James Joyce, and Samuel Beckett, with a second-movement homage to Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. The piece also quotes works by Beethoven, Debussy, Ravel, and others in its allusive third movement.

The second half is dedicated to Antonín Dvořák, with his Symphony No. 7 in D Minor as the centerpiece. This passionate work has enchanted audiences for centuries, including this one at the Rudolfinum in Prague. Two of the Bohemian composer’s spirited Slavonic Dances round out the program, which also features a nod to Frank Sinatra.

Tuesday, March 29 at 10:00 a.m.

Length: 1 hour, 42 minutes

Lionel Meunier & Vox Luminis Perform Handel The Royal Chapel of Versailles provides a stunning backdrop for the exquisite choral music of George Frideric Handel, the famed composer born in Germany, trained in Italy, and nationalized as English. Handel embodied the Baroque ideal: a meeting of the arts and styles of diverse eras and nations, deployed with technical mastery. Vox Luminis, Gramophone Award winners, give brilliant perspective to two of his Italian-inspired works, Nisi Dominus and Dixit Dominus, followed by Ode for St. Cecilia’s Day, which was written in London and inspired by the Pythagorean idea of music as a central force in Earth’s creation.

Tuesday, April 5 at 10:00 a.m.

Length: 1 hour, 50 minutes

Exhibition On Screen: Easter in Art The story of Christ’s death and Resurrection has dominated Western culture for more than 2,000 years. Perhaps the most significant historical event of all time, it has been captured in some of the West’s greatest artworks, from the triumphant to the savage, the ethereal to the tactile. Filmed in Jerusalem, the United States, and Europe, this beautifully crafted film explores how artists have depicted the Easter story from the time of the early Christians to the present day — and thus depicted the history of us all.

ART GALLERY

Art Gallery Michael Christian Shaw, Oil Landscapes Mike Shaw is an award-winning artist whose work focuses on two of the most beautiful and iconic areas of the United States — the rustic farmlands of Lancaster County and the quaint fishing village of Wellfleet, Cape Cod. He and his wife, Lisa, have lived year-round in Lancaster since 1994.

Though largely self-taught, Mike’s classical style of representational realism has been strongly influenced by the 19th century artists of the Hudson River School. These artists focused on the beauty of the American landscape and embraced a view that the majesty of God could be revealed and honored by representing the handiwork of His creation through the visual arts.

“I have always aspired to capture the inspiration, peace, and joy that accompany observing the beauty of the world around us,” Mike says. “My career began with painting the Cape Cod land and seascapes that are dear to me, and I continue to produce that body of work. However, over the past several years, my focus has shifted significantly to the beauty of the Lancaster County rural agricultural countryside. This landscape, for which Lancaster is so well-known, is a part of the collective legacy we all share. It is something that helps define and unite us. There is something in the familiarity of the natural world around us that can help provide peace, almost like a sanctuary, even in difficult times.”

Judith Kozma, Watercolor Judith Kozma was born in Philadelphia, lived in Havertown, then moved to Lancaster after her marriage to Robert Kozma. She received a bachelor of science degree in elementary education from Penn State, and a master of education from Millersville.

Judith has always had a love for art and nature. Fascinated by the spontaneity and unpredictability of watercolors, one of her life goals was to learn how to paint using the medium. Creating a realistic view of the beautiful world around her is very rewarding, and trying new techniques challenges her and provides new perspectives for her work.

Her watercolor instruction began in 1987 with artist and friend Barbara Geurts, then continued with J. Fred Witmer, Lynn Yancha, Larry Lombardo, Deb Watson, and currently Steve Wilson.

Some of Judith’s paintings have been shown at Lancaster County Art Association, Lancaster ArtWalk, Lancaster General Hospital Health Campus, York Art Association, The Carriage House of Port Deposit, and various banks, churches, and shops here in Lancaster. Many of her original paintings have won awards and been donated for charitable events, and a large number are currently held in private collections across the United States.

ART GALLERY

Patricia Renna, Oil & Cold Wax Patricia’s interest in art dates back to her early childhood, but it wasn’t until her fifties, in 2009, that she pursued her dream of becoming an artist. She began by attending workshops in color study, oil painting, and pastel painting. Her early works focused on the natural world of florals, landscapes, and cloudscapes in acrylic, but she quickly moved on to working with oils. While attending an art convention in North Carolina, she discovered soft pastels. With the help of online instructor Karen Margulis, it became evident that Patricia was not going to stick with just one medium throughout her career!

In the early days of the pandemic in 2020, Patricia found cold wax. When she learned she could use it with her first love, oils, she was smitten. Thus, the introduction to wabi-sabi, painting abstracts with cold wax.

She also continues to experiment with brushes and palette knives. This keeps her artwork fresh — never stale or predictable.

Patricia’s wish for her art is to give viewers pause, a moment of quiet reflection in the everyday hustle and bustle. She also hopes it offers a moment of peace, beauty, joy, and a memory of a happy time or place.

“My work is the result of the search to interpret the inspiration that constantly surrounds me. Each artwork I create is an extension of my past, my present, or a peek into my future hopes and dreams,” Patricia says. “As an artist, I am essentially interested in creating works that call for the participation of the audience to the same extent as my involvement in it.”

Mark Twain: American Original “I am not an American,” said Mark Twain. “I am the American.” And no American writer better captured the restless spirit of his age. Hailed as a world-famous humorist, Twain tempered wit with wisdom, mixing sharp social critique into his homespun tales of travel and adventure.

This program explores the fascinating trajectory of Twain’s life — from his boyhood along the Mississippi, to his gilded heyday among the Yankee elite, to the later years of business failure and family tragedy. Prospector, printer, and riverboat pilot, Twain was above all a keen observer of human nature, and his insights remain funny and relevant today.

Life of Pi PERSISTENCE! That is the key to creating a successful novel. Life of Pi by Yann Martel was rejected by five London publishing houses before being accepted by Knopf Canada in 2001. The novel would go on to sell more than 10 million copies.

The story centers on a young Indian boy, Pi, whose father is a manager of a local zoo. Through him, the boy learns much about the precautions to be taken when working with animals. As the story continues, Pi and his family are aboard a Japanese freighter that encounters a storm and sinks. Pi survives 227 days on a lifeboat, with a Bengal tiger, drifting in the Pacific Ocean.

This novel was made into a 2012 movie, grossing a profit of $609 million. It is powerful and contains many hidden meanings, which will be pointed out in the lecture before the film. If you love adventure and animals, then Life of Pi is a must-see.

LIFE OF THE MIND

Life of the Mind Socrates Café Socrates Café encourages spirited discussion about issues and topics that challenge our beliefs about contemporary society and who we are as human beings. Our quest is not to arrive at answers or consensus but rather to develop more and better questions. We seek clarification of our own thinking, and careful and respectful consideration of the views of others, as we sift through, sort out, and attempt to arrive at new insights into the topics under discussion.

Socrates Café meets in the Cultural Center Education Room on the second Monday of each month, 10:00 a.m. – 11:30 a.m.

The Impossible Presidency: Rethinking Our Nation’s Highest Office The American presidency is the most powerful political office in the world. Surprisingly, most contemporary presidents have been severely constrained in their ability to pursue their agendas for domestic and foreign policy. This lecture will explain why, focusing on the nature of government bureaucracy, the range of American challenges and commitments, and the development of the modern media.

We’ll begin with the founding vision of the US presidency and the actions of its first occupant, George Washington, then examine the presidencies of Abraham Lincoln, Franklin Roosevelt, and the most recent officeholders. We’ll focus on how the power of the presidency has changed over time and what that has meant for American society, then close with reflections on how we can improve presidential leadership in the future.

The Three Greatest Iconic American Speeches of the 20th Century: The Words of FDR, JFK & MLK We live in a time of competing soundbites, media highlights, and “fake news” claims that urge us to examine what we believe is true about the US political landscape. Sometimes we assume this discord is a new situation and that things were simpler and more direct back in the “good old days.”

Explore this impulse by revisiting three stirring 20th century American speeches by Franklin Roosevelt, John F. Kennedy, and Martin Luther King Jr. and examining moments we think we know well because they constitute the foundation of our sense of America — as a nation and a people. As we dig into the lesser-known context and controversies surrounding these iconic moments, we may be surprised that our understanding of the past and present may not be as clear as we have assumed.

Women’s Right to Vote in the USA In 1917, female activists known as the Silent Sentinels pioneered a new form of protest by organizing silent daily pickets in front of the White House. This new strategy of nonviolent collective action was born of frustration with the stalled pace of change. In 1912, only nine western states had enacted female suffrage. Yet, eight years later, on August 18, 1920, the required 36 states ratified the 19th Amendment, which prohibited denying or abridging the right to vote on account of sex. What changed?

In this lecture, Professor Jennifer Keene will examine how new tactics, a generation of new female leaders, new media strategies, and World War I all contributed to the passage of the 19th Amendment.

The Search for Life on Mars

Pop Instrumental Music of the 1950s & 1960s

For centuries, Mars has been seen as a possible abode for life. Searches for bio-signatures began in the 19th century, and continue today via telescopic investigations and orbiting and landed missions.

While early work bordered on fantasy, modern scientific inquiry emphasizes the search for chemical signatures of life in the soil and rocks at the planet’s surface, and the search for biomarker gases in the atmosphere — especially methane.

The rock-and-roll era saw not only singers in the spotlight but also instrumental groups with huge hits. Learn about some of your favorite pop instrumental songs, such as Tequila (The Champs), Cherry Pink and Apple Blossom White (Perez Prado), The Happy Organ (Dave “Baby” Cortez), and groups such as Herb Alpert and The Tijuana Brass and The Bert Kaempfert Orchestra.

We will discuss experiments conducted by landed spacecraft, from the Viking Life Science Experiments in 1976 to the current Curiosity and Perseverance rovers; results from methane-targeting infrared spectrometers conducting investigations from both Mars’s orbit and terrestrial observatories; and the types of terrestrial organisms that could prosper on Mars today.

Lancaster County History 101

Book Review: Travels with George

Why did the Amish settle in Lancaster? Why is Lancaster County shaped the way it is? Why do so many towns here have peculiar names? Who made the 1,000-year-old petroglyphs at Safe Harbor?

If no battles were fought in Lancaster County, what contributions did Lancastrians make to the American Revolution?

On December 14, 1799, George Washington passed away at his home, Mount Vernon. Americans were greatly saddened, and Congress asked Henry “LightHorse Harry” Lee to write a eulogy. The 3,500 words written and presented to Congress in Philadelphia on December 28, 1799, describe our first president as “First in war, first in peace, first in the hearts of his countrymen.” What a wonderful salute to the man later regarded as the “Father of His Country.”

Famous Celebrities with Irish Roots By 1800, the potato had become a staple food of the poor people of Ireland, especially during the winter season. A potato blight swept Europe during the 1840s, and in 1847, one million people died of starvation, while more than one million fled Ireland, causing one of the greatest mass exoduses in history. Taking few possessions with them, they ventured to the United States to begin a new life, joining Irish Americans who had come as early as the 17th century.

Today, about 32 million Americans, 9.7% of the total population, identify as Irish. The descendents of these early settlers have become very successful in lifetime careers, especially in the field of the arts.

A Hollywood Icon: Sidney Poitier Evelyn and Reginald Poitier, citizens of the Bahamas, would occasionally travel to Miami to sell tomatoes and other produce from their farm. On one such trip in 1927, Evelyn gave birth to a baby boy. The baby boy was Sidney Poitier, and because he was born in the United States, he was entitled to American citizenship.

At age 15, Sidney left the Bahamas and moved to Miami and then New York City. He joined the North American Negro Theater, landing a role as a high school student in the film Blackboard Jungle. The rest of his life is film history.

Sidney Poitier became an actor, film director, activist, and ambassador. In 1964, he won an Academy Award, becoming the first black male and Bahamian actor to do so. Come witness the amazing life of Sidney Poitier and see scenes from some of his most outstanding performances.

A Ride through One Man’s Greatest American Western Movies The American Western represents the quintessential contribution to American film history. In this course, we will explore one person’s top dozen Western movies: from the big-budget pioneers of the 1930s; the emergence in the 1940s of darker, serious films; the golden era of the 1950s; to the revisionist shift in the late 1960s and beyond. We will examine the iconic characters of these remarkable films: the rugged men and the strong women. We will also look at the core issues of the mythical American West and the pioneering spirit that infused this real and imagined world. Both sessions include historical background, cultural context, and scenes from 12 of the very best Western films ever made.

Wigs, Wives & The Well-Tempered Clavier PATHWAYS: The Story Behind the Barn Quilt at Willow Valley Communities Since 2001, “barn quilts” — quilt block designs painted on wood or metal — have appeared on barns across the Unites States. Suzi Parron, author of two books on this topic, spoke to the Willow Valley Quilt Guild in April 2016, and inspired by her presentation, the guild members began working on a barn quilt design for one of our barns at Willow Valley. They chose a quilt block called “Pathways.” The design features a traditional star with small blocks converging on a center square, a visual metaphor for the many paths Residents have taken to come to Willow Valley Communities and the paths they continue to follow here.

Installed in September 2017, our barn quilt is one of seven in Lancaster County. Residents Flora Poulos and Jean Harris will share the steps taken to select the block design and make our barn quilt, and photos and videos of its installation will be part of the presentation as well. You will also learn about the other barn quilts in Lancaster County and hear the stories behind them.

It’s all about Johann Sebastian Bach. Why did he always wear a wig? Why did he have two wives and 20 children? (That’s not so much a “why” question as an “are-you-kidding-me” statement that needs some explanation.) In addition to these and other questions, Davis Giersch will discuss The Well-Tempered Clavier, a set of pieces Bach wrote for keyboard.

Carl Fabergé & the Imperial Easter Eggs It was a cold, crisp early Easter morning in St. Petersburg, Russia, 1885, as a lone figure made his way through the darkness to the Imperial Palace with a small package. When he reached the gate, he approached the guard and said, “Christ is risen.” The guard replied, “Christ is risen indeed.”

The man then said, “I have an Easter gift for the tsarina.” When the tsarina opened it, she was most pleased. The gift was a white enameled egg containing a gold chick with ruby eyes. She asked the jeweler, Carl Fabergé, to continue this tradition on the following Easter.

Fabergé would continue his Easter surprises from 1885 through 1917, which included the reigns of Tsar Alexander II and Tsar Nicholas II. As a special Easter treat, learn more about Carl Fabergé and see, in detail, his marvelous creations.

Three of Belgium’s Best Artists Jan van Eyck, Peter Paul Rubens, and René Magritte lived in different periods of history, but walked the same streets, enjoyed the same foods, and loved their land and its people equally.

All three were undisputed draftsmen, used brilliant colors, and were skilled at portraying figures. And, they loved to include more than what a quick glance offers.

In this three-week series, explore the three artists’ lives and the particular, original ways they single-handedly contributed to the world of art.

Terrifically Real: Jan van Eyck (1380/1395 – 1441) Tuesday, April 5 Select art historians claim Jan van Eyck invented oil paint. While not technically true, he did discover the revolutionary use of an oil glaze over the final layers on his paintings. Van Eyck painted both religious and secular works and served many of the nobility of his time. His birthdate shifts like sand, but we are certain of when he died, 1441. He left a number of unfinished works that his students finished for him, so while only about 20 paintings are affirmed as purely his, others are possibilities. This lecture explores his fascinating life, the interesting people he truthfully recorded with his brush, and the multitude of details he captured, which open his world to us in amazing ways. Shown is a famous visual certificate of marriage, The Marriage of the Arnolfini. It is loaded with symbolism and will be discussed in the lecture.

One of Belgium’s Finest: Peter Paul Rubens (1577 – 1640) Tuesday, April 12 Sometimes called “the painter of princes and the prince of painters.” The long list of Peter Paul Rubens’s achievements will make you wonder if he ever slept. He was a designated painter of nobles and assisted warring countries in overcoming disputes peacefully. He loved to portray large, beautiful nude women — hence the term “Rubenesque” that, to this day, aptly applies to a lovely full-figured woman.

His subject matter covered portraiture, landscape, religious, and classical. Pictured is Prometheus Bound, one of his well-known classical paintings of Zeus’s torture of Prometheus for giving fire to humans. In this lecture, learn about the man, his life, and his amazing popularity in the 1600s and today.

The Mystery of the Ordinary: René Magritte (1898 – 1967) Tuesday, April 19 Depicting easily recognizable forms and figures in unusual settings was a hallmark of Belgian surrealist René Magritte. In this presentation, learn about Magritte’s (amusing) life in 20th century Europe.

His collection of curious personal photographs plays an important role in his life’s story, and selected ones will be shown throughout the lecture. This is an upbeat artist, with a great talent, and a curious perspective on how to move people to new levels of thought. His influence on Pop Art, Op Art, and Surrealism cannot be overstated. Pictured is a typical Magritte self-portrait.

The French & Indian War: The War That Made America In 1754, a band of colonial militia, led by a young Virginia major named George Washington, stumbled upon French rivals in the backwoods of Pennsylvania. The ensuing fight sparked seven years of hostilities between Britain and France and — in its unexpected consequences — set the stage for America’s eventual independence. This program highlights the big issues and dramatic events of the global conflict we know as the French and Indian War. Britain won the great prize in the war, the heart of North America, but would soon lose it all to frustrated colonial upstarts.

Basic Understanding of Photography Composition Photo composition is how a photographer organizes visual elements within their frame. Putting subjects or scenes inside that photo may sound easy, yet it’s anything but. As a beginner or experienced photographer, you may look at images made by other photographers and notice that somehow their compositions tend to be a lot more eye-catching.

Have you ever questioned what the difference is between an average photo and a remarkable one? How do you know if a photo “works”? What makes a photograph outstanding? We will discuss the key points of composing a good photo beyond just focusing on the main subject.

Great Photographers, Part 10: The Modern Documentary: Elliott Erwitt, Mary Ellen Mark & Steve McCurry True documentary photography began in the late 19th century, initially used to bring the plight of the poor to public attention. With the passing decades, the subject matter of documentary photography has expanded exponentially. This program will focus on the work of three photographers whose work is proof of today’s wide-ranging documentary topics.

Elliott Erwitt (b. 1928) began his career in the early 1950s with a study of Pittsburgh and its inhabitants and went on to capture people around the world. Mary Ellen Mark (1940 – 2015) specialized in photographing people and groups outside of mainstream society, those who were both interesting and often troubled. Steve McCurry’s (b. 1950) body of work concentrates on the toll that war takes on human lives and the areas they inhabit. One of his earliest published photographs is known worldwide as the green-eyed Afghan Girl.

Feeding the Birds in Winter What are birds eating in the wild or right outside your windows?

We’ll discuss which food and feeders attract which species and learn birds’ sounds and markings to help you identify them.

Plant Eater, Where Do You Get Your Protein?

Someone who says they are vegan, vegetarian, or replacing some animal foods with plant foods is often asked: “Where do you get your protein?”

This presentation will answer this question by answering the following: • What are proteins?

• What is the source of all protein?

• What is the daily requirement for protein?

The Sport of Fencing: Learn by Doing Interested in learning the Olympic sport of fencing? This four-session class is for you. We’ll begin with a discussion of the different target areas, rules, and characteristics of the foil, épée, and sabre. You’ll learn and practice the on-guard stance and how to advance, retreat, and lunge; how to hold the foil and make touches using the basic attacks — thrusts, disengages, ripostes, and beats; and the basic foil parries used to defend the four areas of the target. You’ll also see how fencing differs from theatrical sword fighting and experience why it’s often called physical chess. There will be individual drills, exercises with other students, and special one-on-one practice with the instructor.

Weight Loss Tips & Tricks When we eat more calories than we burn, our body stores the excess calories as fat.

So, simple logic would suggest the way to lose weight is to eat fewer and/or burn more calories. But losing weight is usually not that simple. This presentation will answer the following: • Why is it so easy to gain weight but difficult to lose weight?

• Why does the body store excess calories as fat?

• Why do most diet plans work in the short run but fail in the long run?

• Why is eating more food the key to consuming fewer calories?

• What are “calorie density” and "satiety," and how do they relate to weight loss?

• What are some strategies to increase calories burned?
