SUMMARY:Appalachian Summer Festival: Maeve Gilchrist featuring Aizuri Quartet & Kyle Sanna: The Harpweaver
DESCRIPTION:photo credit: Shervin Lainez\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nA Broyhill Chamber Series Event\n\nSponsored by McDonald’s of Boone\nMaeve Gilchrist (harp\, vocals)\nKyle Sanna (guitar) \nAizuri Quartet\nEmma Frucht and Miho Saegusa\, Violins\nAyane Kozasa\, Viola\nKaren Ouzounian\, Cello \nHarpist and composer Maeve Gilchrist’s new offering The Harpweaver plays on the idea of artistic nostalgia. When we can’t be with those that we love\, surely the next best thing is to experience the catharsis of familiar sounds; notes and words that bring a sense of connection\, possibility and joy. Originally from Edinburgh\, Gilchrist — a migrant musician — has been making her mark as a ground-breaking harpist on the streets of New York and Boston for for nearly two decades through her collaborations with The Silkroad Project\, Nic Gareiss\, Viktor Krauss\, Ambrose Akinmusire\, Darol Anger\, Solas and Okkyung Lee. With The Harpweaver\, Gilchrist steps into her own as a composer and producer and illuminates her roots as a traditional folk musician through the prism of luscious string parts\, electronic manipulation and an archived recitation of “The Ballad of the Harpweaver\,” by the poet Edna St. Vincent Millay\, a celebrity of Jazz-Age America. \nIn addition to “The Harpweaver” program\, the Grammy-nominated Aizuri Quartet (who recently appeared on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert accompanying Wilco in a performance of “Poor Places”) will bring a selection of their trademark exploratory repertoire juxtaposing the timeless old with strikingly new and exhilarating string compositions. \nFor tickets go to: https://appsummer.org/event/maeve-gilchrist-featuring-aizuri-quartet-kyle-sanna-the-harpweaver/

It’s all improvised and it’s all funny. \nThe New York Times calls Broadway’s Next Hit Musical “Hilarious!” \nTime Out NY says “At last! A musical of\, for\, and by the people.” \nBroadway’s Next Hit Musical is the only unscripted theatrical awards show. Have you heard of the TONY awards?

SUMMARY:Appalachian Summer Festival: Playground (Un monde)
DESCRIPTION:photo: ImagePresse \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nHelene and Stephen Weicholz Global Film Series presents\nPlayground (Un monde)\nIn French with English subtitles\nBelgium\, not rated\, directed by Laura Wandel\, 2021\, drama\, 72 min \nIn this debut feature by writer-director Laura Wandel\, the everyday reality of grade school is seen from a child’s-eye-view as an obstacle course of degradation and abuse. Following 7-year-old Nora and her big brother Abel\, we see Nora struggling to fit in before finding her place on the schoolyard. One day\, she notices Abel being bullied by other kids\, and though she rushes to protect him by warning their father\, Abel forces her to remain silent\, while he endures more humiliation and harassment by his peers. Transposing the gritty realism of such filmmakers as Jacques Audiard and the Dardennes Brothers to the inner world of kids\, Wandel crafts an empathetic and visceral portrait of the cruelty of children\, and the failure of adults to protect them. Shortlisted for the Academy Award for Best International Film. \nFor tickets go to: https://appsummer.org/event/playground-un-monde/

SUMMARY:BRAHM: Shakere African Instrument Making Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Adults\, teens\, or children accompanied by an adult \nWe will prepare a gourd\, paint or etch on the gourd\, string the beaded skirt around it and learn one rhythm & song on the instrument. Beads\, wooden\, ceramic\, and pony plastic beads will be used. Other objects like seashells may be woven in -however\, if they are breakable the instrument may become more a work of art than a playable instrument.   African shekeres may use nut shells\, seashells or hard seeds in the design. Bead colors are an individual choice. \nIf participants do not complete the instrument in one session it is possible to continue to work on it at home. \nWebsite
