Book Discussion | Time's Echo: The Second World War, the Holocaust, and the Music of Remembrance


With a critic’s ear, a scholar’s erudition, and a novelist’s eye for detail, Jeremy Eichler shows how four towering composers—Richard Strauss, Arnold Schoenberg, Dmitri Shostakovich, and Benjamin Britten—lived through the era of World War II and the Holocaust. Each composer transformed their experiences into moving, transcendent works of music, scores that echo lost time. Summoning the supporting testimony of writers, poets, philosophers, musicians, and everyday citizens, Eichler makes a passionate and revelatory case for the power of music as cultural memory, an art form uniquely capable of carrying forward meaning from the past.  Jeremy Eichler is joined in conversation by Emanuel Ax, Grammy-winning classical pianist. They will discuss how, by listening to history and learning to hear the resonances of what another era has written, heard, dreamed, hoped, and mourned, we can deepen how we think about the legacies of war, the presence of the past, and the renewed promise of art for our lives today. A book signing will follow with books available to purchase.

Staged Reading | Lemuria: The Primatologist's Dilemma


Refracting themes from King Lear, Bonnie Antosh's Lemuria is an inheritance drama about dominance, queer Southern scientists, academic lineage, sex, and -- yes -- lemurs. Professor Anabelle Katz-Carver, the greatest primatologist since Jane Goodall, runs her elite research lab as a strict matriarchy. After grooming potential successors for decades, she's finally ready to choose an heir -- but in the animal kingdom and in our own, how does a queen pass the crown on to another queen?

Performance | LIVIN' IT!–The Music of Julie Mandel


Composer/lyricist Julie Mandel, who has been writing music and lyrics (pop songs, musicals, children's records, opera, etc.) since the 1940s, will turn 100 on Tuesday, September 12, 2023. As a musical tribute, there will be a new musical revue of Julie's work entitled LIVIN' IT!–The Music of Julie Mandel. Many of Julie's original songs have been recorded by prominent artists over the past 70 years. When Frank Loesser started his publishing company Frank Music, Julie was one of the first composer/lyricists that he signed and he produced recordings of several of her songs. In her 100th year, Julie still works almost every day at her keyboard and her computer.
