Stories to Take You Home told by Donald Davis

Donald Davis takes his listeners on a journey through his rural North Carolina mountain community, meeting friends, neighbors, and family members along the way. It was Uncle Frank, a man who “talked in stories,” who helped Donald capture the real and daily adventures of life. And that is the way that Donald has approached all of his learning places...as a student at Davidson College; as a graduate of Duke University Divinity School; as a retired Methodist minister; as former Chairperson of the Board of Directors for the National Storytelling Association; as featured teller at the Smithsonian Institution, the World’s Fair, as a guest host for National Public Radio’s Good Evening.

For Donald Davis, storytelling is a way of giving and living life. He invites each listener to come along, to personally share and co-create the common experiences that celebrate the creative spirit.

Riccardo Chailly Conducts Mahler Symphony No. 8 Length: 1 hour 32 minutes Sung in Latin and German with English subtitles.

Commemorating the 100th anniversary of Gustav Mahler’s death, the Gewandhausorchester Leipzig and acclaimed musical director Riccardo Chailly, closed the International Mahler Festival in Leipzig performing Mahler’s Symphony No. 8, the “Symphony of a Thousand.” To perform Mahler’s brilliant Symphony No. 8 requires one of the largest orchestras of any work in the symphonic repertoire, Chailly conducted 500 musicians. This symphony, composed in 1906, is one of the longest of Mahler’s symphonies, after the third and the first.

Anoushka Shankar: Traveller - Gypsy Music from India to Spain Length: 2 hour 12 minutes In Girona, Spain, the superlative sitarist Anoushka Shankar enlisted top players from India and Spain to record Traveller, retracing the thousand-year-old bond between Indian and Spanish musical traditions in both music and dance — as befits the innovative legacy of her father and mentor, the great Ravi Shankar. With traditional instruments from India and Spain, Shankar’s ensemble condenses Gypsy music’s thousand-year migration from India to Europe into one exceptional performance, where Andalusian flamencos and Carnatic ragas merge seamlessly. Sophisticated and original, this journey reveals a missing link between Zakir Hussain and Flamenco Vivo Carlota Santana.

Donizetti’s L’Elisir d’amore Denis Matsuev Plays Length: 2 hour 1 minutes Schumann and Sung in Italian with English subtitles.

Rachmaninov A pastoral romance between Adina (Ekaterina Siurina), the rich and gorgeous landowner, and Nemorino (Peter Auty), a simple peasant, in love with Adina, L’Elisir d’amore (The Elixir of Love) sets Tristan and Iseult’s love potion at the center of the action.

Donizetti wrote dozens of operas, but he is mostly famous today for five works that are regularly performed in the greatest opera theatres around the world. All five were composed within ten years: L’Elisir d’amore (1832), Lucia di Lammermoor (1835), La Fille du régiment (1840), La Favorite (1840) and Don Pasquale (1843). Heir of Rossini, Donizetti is at the same time a “child of the century,” a Romantic poet whose taste for the bel canto made him a rival of Bellini, another composer from Catania. Like Bellini, Donizetti provided the lyric repertoire with beautiful arias heard in L’Elisir d’amore.

Greatly acclaimed for his interpretations, Matsuev concluded this recital with an incredible series of encores by Rossini, Tchaikovsky, Duke Ellington or Shchedrin – the best opportunity to admire the beautiful and various shades of Matsuev’s capabilities.

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.

So if you enjoy thinking about and questioning commonly accepted assumptions, even your own, or if you are willing to challenge the taken-for-granted authority of any position or representation of fact or truth, join us at Socrates Café.

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

Potato Chip Packaging: A Brief History and a Bit of the Science The potato chip was “invented” or developed about 1822 in England.

And there is a fascinating story about its development in the USA in 1853, though there are references to the potato chip in the USA as early as 1824. Tin cans, waxed paper, glassine, and cellophane have all been used to get the potato chips from the factory to the consumer. In the mid-1990s, a sophisticated lamination of complex polypropylene films developed into the basic package we know today.

34 Years in Healthcare and a Love for Dogs Kendall Hunsicker has been with Willow Valley Communities for 16 years and the VP of Healthcare Services for over 14 of them. Before that she was the Regional Director of Clinical Information Management for St. Joseph Health System in Reading, PA.

healthcare administrators whose teams have achieved exceptional levels of organizational quality. Kendall plans to share lessons learned along her 34 year career in healthcare as well as personal stories including her and her husband’s love for dogs and their cockapoo, Sullivan Theodore Hunsicker.

Witness to History: The Selma March for Voting Rights March 7 of this year marked the 50th anniversary of “Bloody Sunday” in Selma, Alabama—the day state troopers and local posse men viciously beat and gassed 600 marchers bearing a voting rights petition to Gov. George Wallace. When Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. called for volunteers to replace the fallen Dr. Richard Vieth was one of those who responded. He will share his experience of the warm hospitality and inspiring witness of Selma’s African-American community, his fear facing a phalanx of baton-wielding troopers blocking the march, and the triumphant arrival and huge rally on the steps of the state capitol.

Creative Writing Craft Talks Learn valuable writing skills in a small series of craft talks designed to open your mind to new ideas while writing. Included in this series will be skills to incorporate place as a character, and truth about those we know. Sessions are for both those who enjoy writing and those with just an interest in the topic.

Place as Character: Cartography, Street History, and Literature Maggie Messitt says, “As an immersion journalist, understanding the character of place is essential. It’s about understanding a place down to its bones, its soil, its language, and its superstitions. It’s about knowing that although a map uses one name, locals call it something very different (and may not even know the mapped name). It’s about understanding the history of a corner and a neighborhood. While, in my writing, I see place as its own character, deserving of its own development, I also see how immersion is essential for anyone to understand the unique DNA of a place. Whether you’re a social worker starting a job in a new community or anyone else who may be problem-solving or creating inside a community or culture other than their own.”

Camera Club Willow Valley Communities

How Old is that Photograph?

Most of us can determine the approximate age of 20th century photographs — even if we do not know the people in the picture — based on clothing, hairstyles, automobiles, and other identifying clues. But 19th century photos are often a mystery. There were so many different types of photographs — daguerreotypes, ambrotypes, tintypes, carte de visite, and cabinet cards — and nothing about their clothing or hair styles is familiar to us. Whether you are stumped by old photographs of your family, or have a general interest in old pictures, you will learn some quick and easy tips to determine what type of photographs you have, how to date them, and, often, how to identify the people in the photographs.
