SUMMARY:Pro Arte Chamber Orchestra presents The Passionate Viola

SUMMARY:Behind the Screen: SECRET MALL APARTMENT with Director Jeremy Workman and Artist/Resident Michael Townsend
DESCRIPTION:Directed by Jeremy Workman\nStarring Michael Townsend\, Colin Bliss\, Adriana Valdez-Young\, Andrew Oesch\, James J.A. Mercer \nFilm and Post-Screening Discussion with:\nJeremy Workman\, Director\nMichael Townsend\, Artist and onetime mall resident\nNate Harrison\, Dean of Academic Affairs\, School of the Museum of Fine Arts at Tufts University \nIn 2003\, eight young Rhode Islanders created a secret apartment in a hidden space inside the Providence Place Mall and lived in it for four years\, filming everything along the way. They snuck in furniture\, tapped into the mall’s electricity\, and even secretly constructed a brick wall with a locking door\, smuggling in over 2 tons of cinderblock. Far more than just a wild prank\, the secret apartment became a deeply meaningful place for all its inhabitants – a personal expression of defiance against local gentrification\, a boundary-pushing work of public/private art\, a clubhouse to coordinate their artistic charity\, and finally\, a 750 square foot space that sticks it to the man. \nJEREMY WORKMAN\nEmmy-nominated director of the documentaries SECRET MALL APARTMENT (Executive Produced by Jesse Eisenberg)\, LILY TOPPLES THE WORLD (Discovery)\, DECIDING VOTE (Oscar-shortlisted Best Documentary Short)\, THE WORLD BEFORE YOUR FEET (Greenwich Entertainment / Kino Lorber)\, and MAGICAL UNIVERSE (IFC Films). Jeremy’s documentaries have played at prestigious film festivals and been released in theaters and on TV across the globe. He has been praised for creating his own genre of uniquely cinematic character portraits that bring viewers deep inside extraordinary worlds. \nMICHAEL TOWNSEND\nProvidence\, RI artist known as “that guy that lived in a mall” and “that guy who invented Tape Art.” He has made over 500 temporary tape art murals on buildings all over the world\, has taught collaborative drawing to over 60\,000 students\, and still sneaks in the time to make large secret artworks that no one will ever see. \nNATE HARRISON\nDean of Academic Affairs\, School of the Museum of Fine Arts at Tufts University and a Professor of the Practice. An artist and writer working at the intersection of intellectual property\, cultural production and the formation of creative processes in modern media\, Nate’s work has been exhibited at the American Museum of Natural History\, the Whitney Museum of American Art\, the Centre Pompidou\, the Los Angeles County Museum of Art\, and the Kunstverein in Hamburg\, among others.

SUMMARY:Newton Baroque presents Harmonia artificioso-ariosa: Music for two violins and continuo by Heinrich Ignaz Franz von Biber
DESCRIPTION:The day is fast approaching when Newton Baroque will take a huge leap and play our first concert at a major international festival. On June 9\, we will play an all-Biber program at the Tage Alter Musik in Regensburg\, Germany. Before we leave for Germany\, we’ll play the concert on May 9 and 10 for our friends in Boston and Newton. The program consists entirely of Partie for two violins and continuo from Heinrich Ignaz Franz von Biber’s Harmonia artificioso-ariosa. Each of the four Partie on the concert requires a different scordatura tuning\, and they are arguably the most astounding works for two violins and continuo from the 17th century. You may have heard us play a few of these pieces before; over the last two years\, we have programmed isolated sonatas from the set to prepare for our event in Regensburg\, and now you can hear the full program in its entirety. If there were ever a do-not-miss concert\, it is this one. These pieces by Biber are incredibly challenging technically\, but we have been preparing for a long time\, and they are polished and ready. Also\, we have been living with them long enough now to engage in even more than our usual amount of risk-taking\, and I believe you will be in for a tremendous show. Susanna and Christina are among the best in the world at playing this music\, and Cullen and Andrus are in the perfect continuo groove to underpin the violin fireworks.
