Symposium | Translating Jewishness: Conversations on Culture and Civilization
This event draws on the collection of the Posen Library of Jewish Culture and Civilization to engage two key modes of Jewish expression: anthologies and translations. Throughout the centuries, Jews have gathered selections from the storehouse of Jewish culture and civilization into more widely accessible anthologies. In addition, for as long as Jews have lived dispersed across the globe, they have translated their sacred texts into their current vernaculars. As Jews settled in more places and began to speak more languages, the choice of what to translate and make more readily available for contemporary audiences became more complicated. Translation accompanied anthologizing. This symposium explores the dynamics of translating and dimensions of the Jewish anthological imagination.

Musical | The Sound: Musical About Hope, Courage, Family; Set in 1943 Denmark
Inspired by true events, this uplifting musical about family, courage, hope, and the importance of remembering our past tells the story of an aging Holocaust survivor who shares his harrowing escape from Denmark to Sweden with a young American woman. With the assistance of a magical entity, he recalls the fateful day in the fall of 1943 when the Nazis began rounding up Danish Jews for concentration camps. He recounts how his family evaded capture by hiding in a fishing boat traveling to Sweden – and freedom – across The Sound. Suitable for for ages 9 and up.

Concert | Experimental Music and Visuals
SUNN O))) returns to the live aspect in its core, original raw form. Founders and guitarists Stephen O’Malley and Greg Anderson perform as a duo immersed in profound valve amplification, spectral harmonics, distortion, and volume. Their excursions into pure and primeval riffs of temporality and massively heavy structures of sound pressure have been challenging how we think about music for twenty years. Witness a live experience of physical sound, fog, and glacial maximalism like no other. The evening begins with a set from the Guatemalan cellist and vocalist Mabe Fratti. Fratti's music blurs the borders between folk, jazz, and avant rock, in service of rich, multi-layered works that center around her striking voice. She performs in the wake of her most recent album Sentir Que No Sabes, which brings her sound even closer to pop, though always driven by an experimental urge.
