Thomas C. Duffy, Music Director. Yale's wind symphony opens its season with music and guest artists of Venezuela and Mexico:
● Venezuelan composer Aldemaro Romero’s "Fuga con Pajarillo" features virtuosic cadenzas for harp and cuatro (guitar). Guest artist Hector Molina, cuatro.
● "Onda Tropical" represents a tropical wave rolling from New England (where Rodrigo Martinez Torres wrote it) to his hometown of Mexico City, in an attempt to evoke a nostalgic feeling about home and the new friendships made while away. Guest artist Abi Pak, acordeón.
● Mexican composer Nubia Jaime-Donjuan describes her "Tundra: A Cold that Burns" as the relationship between the warm musical genre of the danzón and the cold climate of the tundra.
Other music:
● Written in 2002, Jennifer Higdon’s lively "Fanfare Ritmico" celebrates the rhythm and speed (tempo) of life and its rapid increase at the approach of the new millenium.
● Charles Ives, Yale class of 1898, wrote "Decoration Day" as part of his Holiday Suite. It is a haunting and melancholy depiction of the sounds Ives heard at the side of his father, the Director of the Danbury (CT) Band, on the occasion of the holiday that is now known as Memorial Day.
● The five movements of "Suite Française" (Darius Milhaud) celebrate the folk tunes of provinces where American and Allied forces fought alongside the French underground during WWII. The incorporation of these melodies reinforces the idea of hope – which is the basis of freedom.

Saturday Introductory Tour of Beinecke Library
Getting the right to vote in 18th century Connecticut was a revolution. So was the election cake that celebrated it in the 19th century. Through the fiction of Harriet Beecher Stowe, journals of Thoreau, sermons, petitions by Black citizens, period cookbooks, and more, food historian Linda Civitello will present, “Elections and Cakes: Connecticut Revolutions,” at the New Haven Museum (NHM) on Saturday, October 5, 2024, at 2 p.m. Register for this free event here.
Election cake was a descendant of festive British great cakes, more like a fancy bread. The Constitution State made the cake its own. Civitello will highlight what elections and Connecticut’s famous cake meant to early voters, and how it is more relevant than ever during this election year. She hopes to impart an understanding of how difficult baking was in the past, the importance of Connecticut in food history, and the role of cake in American history. There will be samples available of authentic election cake made from a historic recipe using heirloom flour.
Civitello has lectured and written on a wide range of food-related topics, from the history of chocolate to racism in food. She is fascinated by everything cake and is writing a book on the history of food in Connecticut.

Sew Easy for Young People
Explore the versatile technique of collagraphy, a printmaking process in which materials are glued or sealed to a rigid substrate (such as paperboard or wood) to create a plate. Once inked, the plate becomes a tool for imprinting the design onto paper or another medium.

This class is ideal for artists looking to expand their printmaking skills or explore a new medium.

Launching its 20th anniversary season, Brooklyn Rider draws on some of its nascent days as master interpreters of composer Philip Glass and brings the first-ever performance of Glass's complete works for string quartet to the Schwarzman Center. “As we play Glass,” describes the ensemble, “we are pulled into a world where our sensitivities blend, are transparent and our tone takes on a heightened color based on the synergistic combination of interlocking patterns and elemental harmonies.” The work blends the gossamer-like voices of classical music and the pulsating energy of New York with the drone-base textures of world music to create a stimulating performance. The quartet has performed in venues from New York City’s Jazz at Lincoln Center to Mexico City’s Deco masterpiece, the Palacio de Bellas Artes, and earned praise from classical and rock fans alike as “the future of chamber music” (Strings).

Silkscreen/Serigraph Printmaking
This is a true story. It’s the 90s in rural Falcon, Colorado. Six teenage girls on the FFA horse judging team are determined to make it to nationals come hell or high water. But to do that, they must grapple with jealousy, rivalries, sex, Jesus, AOL chat rooms, impossible expectations, and rumors of a serial killer. Hilary Bettis’s falcon girls is an achingly funny and brutally honest coming of age memoir–and a love letter to the girls she grew up with and the horses who saved their lives.
