Music the Way Its Sposed to Be
Fri, Mar 02, 2007 @ 08:00 PM
USC Viterbi School of Engineering
Receptions & Special Events
Is it ethical for us to impose our tastes and value systems on masterpieces from the past? Would Bach agree that a modern performance of his work is "better" than the ones he had available to him? This concert will be dedicated to finding answers to these and other questions.Like other ensembles that study the performance practices of music written before the advent of recording technology, the Thornton Baroque Sinfonia will discuss the kind of historical knowledge necessary to perform this repertory and demonstrate how these early instruments are played, showing their different sounds and playing techniques, while contrasting them with modern instruments. The concert will be preceded by a conversation at 7 p.m. with prominent performer and musicologist Victor Coelho, who is both an expert in early music performance and in rock/blues guitar.

Václav Havels Protest
Wed, Mar 07, 2007 @ 07:00 PM
USC Viterbi School of Engineering
Receptions & Special Events
From celebrated Czech playwright Václav Havel, a key figure in Czech public life for the past half century, comes one of his wittiest one-acts that raises important questions about the role of artists in a political context. Written in 1978, Protest deals with the travails of Havel's alter-ego Ferdinand Vanek. Recently released from jail for anti-government activities, Vanek escaped his hellish office to visit the comfortable, middle-class home of his friend, Stanek. He is hoping to convince Stanek to sign a petition renouncing the regime. In this remarkable work, Havel demonstrates how the restrictions of freedom of speech and thought spread conformity across all members of society while slowly eroding basic humanity.To RSVP, please visit: http://www.usc.edu/webapps/events_calendar/custom/113/index.php?category=Item&item=0.861402&active_category=Upcoming
