ANNOUNCEMENTS
As a special treat, the Tenaya Guitar Duo will perform a set during the second half of our next monthly meeting on Tuesday, October 1. (Tenaya is a Ahwahneechee word from the Yosemite Valley, meaning “to dream”, and also the name of a Ahwahneechee leader in the 19th century.) The duo consists of San Francisco bay area guitarists Gareth Loy and Jonathan Braun, who is also a Master Ceramicist. Dr. Loy has a Wikipedia page dedicated to him that describes his research connecting music and mathematics, as well as his work at Stanford and with music-related software. They will perform their arrangements of pieces by Norwegian composer Edvard Grieg and rarer pieces by Spanish composer Isaac Albeniz. This will be a unique concert!
David Rogers will play oud with visiting pianist Malek Jandali and local cellist extraordinaire Michal Palzewicz as part of Anima Mundi Production’s “Heart of Humanity” concert series. The concert is entitled “Peace Through Music” and will take place October 6 at 3pm at the SOU Music Recital Hall. Tickets and information are available here. Mr. Jandali has created a worldwide program entitled “Pianos for Peace” which you can find out about through the same website. There will be local installations of pianos and other events in Ashland as part of the program this coming week.
