Lecture | Expert Shares Her Research on "Precarious Employment"


At this talk, Dr. Wen-Jui Han will present research related to precarious employment that points to a trap impacting low-income and marginalized communities. Since the 1980s, the global labor market -- including the U.S. -- has shifted toward precarious employment, characterized by instability, volatility, and unpredictability. Although such work is often portrayed as a temporary "stepping stone," longitudinal research spanning three decades reveals a different reality: for many workers, precarious employment becomes a permanent trap with serious health consequences that emerge in midlife and persist into later adulthood.

Classical Music | Musical Dialogue: From Raw Intimacy to Symphonic Exuberance -- Mozart & More


The New York Classical Players perform a program exploring the evolution of musical dialogue. The journey begins with Erwin Schulhoff's Duo for Violin and Cello, where folk energy meets the edgy defiance of 1920s modernism, followed by the timeless clarity and lyrical poise of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart's Kegelstatt Trio. The evening culminates in Erno Dohnanyi's Sextet in C Major, a "mini-orchestral" masterwork that masterfully bridges late-Romantic passion with the witty, jazz-inflected spirit of a new era.

Musical | Into the Woods: Fairytale Musical from Stephen Sondheim


What begins as a familiar journey through the tales of Cinderella, Jack, Little Red Riding Hood, and the Baker and his Wife soon unravels into something deeper: an examination of choice, responsibility, and the fragile truth behind “happily ever after.” As decisions are made and consequences collide, Into the Woods reveals the true cost of getting what you wish.

Jazz | Original Jazz Orchestra by Prize-Winning Composer & Performer


Enjoy a performance by Seulah Noh (2015 CJ-Berklee Talent Scholarship and 2019 CJ Music Scholarship for Post-Graduates recipient), a pianist, composer, and conductor whose artistic journey spans classical training, musical theater, and the world of large-ensemble jazz. The program draws primarily from her critically acclaimed debut album, NohMAD, performed by the Seulah Noh Jazz Orchestra. The program moves fluidly between composition and improvisation, weaving together classical influences and the rich tradition of big band jazz into a sound that is sophisticated, emotionally vivid, and entirely her own.

Hear a concert from the McIntosh County Shouters, principal exponents--and one of the last active practitioners--of the ring shout, one of the oldest African American performance traditions surviving in America. Their performances weave call-and-response singing, hand clapping, a stick beat on the floor, and a signature counterclockwise dance.
