This event is open to students and university personnel.

In this talk, Sandra will speak about the history, mission, and impact of StoryCorps, as well as her hope for the future, even in the face of crippling losses in federal financial support across all of American public media and broadcasting. Sandra’s talk will be followed by a Q&A session with the audience.

StoryCorps is a non-profit, oral history project whose mission is to preserve and share humanity’s stories, with the intention of building connections between people and creating a more just and compassionate world.

Sandra Clark is a leading voice in journalism and beyond, challenging norms and practices that create barriers to building trust and meaningful, sustainable connections within communities. Prior to joining StoryCorps, Sandra was Vice President for News and Civic Dialogue at WHYY in Philadelphia, where she led the station’s news operations across all platforms, and was at the forefront of expanding and diversifying its audiences and outreach to communities through her innovative approaches to collaborating with grassroots information providers. As Managing Editor at the Philadelphia Inquirer prior to joining WHYY, Sandra was a member of both the executive and newsroom leadership teams, and led the paper to a Pulitzer Prize in Criticism.

K-12 Performing Arts series prioritizes K-12 students and teachers.

Appalachian State University’s Hayes School of Music and the Department of Theatre and Dance collaborate on a production of Act I of this beloved musical comedy.

The Broadway production (music by Mary Rodgers, lyrics by Marshall Barer, and book by Jay Thompson, Dean Fuller, and Barer) is a fan favorite thanks to its catchy tunes, comedic elements, and wholesome nature.

Run Time: Approx. 60 minutes

A two-time Grammy Award and Pulitzer Prize-winning singer and instrumentalist, MacArthur “Genius” grant recipient, and composer of opera, ballet, and film, Giddens has centered her work around the mission of lifting up people whose contributions to American musical history have previously been overlooked or erased. As Pitchfork once said, “few artists are so fearless and so ravenous in their exploration” — a journey that has led to NPR naming her one of its 25 Most Influential Women Musicians of the 21st Century and to American Songwriter calling her “one of the most important musical minds currently walking the planet.”

Tickets: TheSchaeferCenter@appstate.edu, 800-841-2787 or 828-262-4046, or the Schaefer Center box office (733 Rivers St). Tickets on sale August 27 at 10am.

Trinidadian trumpeter and composer Etienne Charles has dedicated his recent works to highlighting the voices of marginalized peoples in the Americas. He broadens his scope with his latest composition, Earth Tones, a multimedia jazz performance featuring original compositions that draw attention to people and regions that are, or soon will be, severely affected by climate change. The performance invites us into a sensory journey that includes sounds, stories, and musical idioms from at-risk coastal communities, with images and short films of disappearing mangrove swamps, coral reefs, oyster beds, seagrass, sand dunes, and mud volcanoes. Featuring musicians from the very communities most at risk, the performance balances blunt reality, eternal optimism, and surrealism, ultimately offering an exhortation to address climate change’s impact on our future.

Tickets: TheSchaeferCenter@appstate.edu, 800-841-2787 or 828-262-4046, or the Schaefer Center box office (733 Rivers St.).

Trinidad-born Etienne Charles is a performer, composer and storyteller, who is constantly searching for untold tales and sounds with which to tell them. His lush trumpet sound, varied compositional textures and pulsating percussive grooves enable him to invoke trance, soothing and exciting listeners while referencing touchy and sometimes controversial subjects in his music. Highlighting marginalized communities and engaging with them has been his mission, evident with projects such as his Guggenheim Fellowship Project, Carnival: The Sound of a People Vol. 1, San Jose Suite, Creole Soul, Gullah Roots, Folklore, and his latest commission, San Juan Hill – A New York Story. His concerts engage, enlighten, educate, and enrich audiences with energized multidisciplinary performance utilizing original composition, thematic improvisation, dance, short films and spoken word to create a holistic experience. A firm believer in music and performance as a tool for provoking thought and dialogue, Charles’s themes speak to the status quo while drawing parallels to history. As an Afro-descendant, his work is actively connecting the diaspora and drawing lines to the regions at the roots of migrations, evident in his latest release, Creole Orchestra, which spent seven weeks at #1 on the Jazzweek chart this summer. His dedication to music as a tool for social uplift has seen him awarded by France with the Chevalier de l’Ordre des Arts et des Lettres medal (2024) as well as a Congressional Citation from the United States (2012). As a sideman, he has performed with and/or arranged for Roberta Flack, Chucho Valdes, Marcus Roberts, Marcus Miller, Count Basie Orchestra, Frank Foster’s Loud Minority Big Band, Monty Alexander, Gregory Porter, Terri Lyne Carrington, René Marie, Paulette McWilliams, and many others. He has been commissioned as a composer and arranger by Lincoln Center for the New York Philharmonic (2021), Savannah Music Festival (2017), Chamber Music America (2015 and 2021), the Charleston Jazz Orchestra (2012), and the Chicago Jazz Ensemble (2011). He currently serves as Professor of Studio Music and Jazz at University of Miami Frost School of Music.

Rolling Stone praised their work as “wild virtuosity used for more than just virtuosity,” cementing their reputation as trailblazers in contemporary acoustic music.

Dvořák’s “New World” Symphony blends elements of the Czech composer’s heritage as he yearns for home with American musical influences in his excitement for a new land. Known for the moving “Simple Gifts” melody, Copland’s Suite from Appalachian Spring offers a contrasting portrayal of a couple trying to establish their homestead in rural America in a work full of spirit and wonder.

The event is supported by the Claims Conference on Jewish Material Claims Against Germany, the Martin and Doris Rosen Symposium Endowment, and other community members.

For over two decades, the Rosen Symposium has brought educators from across North Carolina and the country together to learn about the Holocaust and how to teach it effectively. Participants will learn from renowned Holocaust scholars, pedagogy experts, and survivors through workshops, lectures, and discussions.

This year's theme, “Survivors”, honors those who continue to share their firsthand accounts and recognizes the subsequent generations now carrying their legacy forward. Survivor testimony remains at the heart of this work — not only offering participants the chance to learn from and engage with survivors directly, but also deepening understanding in ways no other form of education can.

The Symposium provides approximately 40 hours of instruction, discussions, demonstrations, and public programs designed for teachers, students, and the community. Teachers who complete all forty hours can receive 4 CEUs.

Registration

Teachers can register now at appstate.irisregistration.com/Form/26MDSYMPOSIUM. The registration cost is $35.

Expenses

Symposium expenses are $1,600, but full tuition assistance is available to cover the costs. The expenses include lodging, meals, events and workshops, and books and materials. Full tuition assistance is available for 35 registrants. To apply, register at the link above.

The event is supported by the Claims Conference on Jewish Material Claims Against Germany, the Martin and Doris Rosen Symposium Endowment, and other community members.

For over two decades, the Rosen Symposium has brought educators from across North Carolina and the country together to learn about the Holocaust and how to teach it effectively. Participants will learn from renowned Holocaust scholars, pedagogy experts, and survivors through workshops, lectures, and discussions.

This year's theme, “Survivors”, honors those who continue to share their firsthand accounts and recognizes the subsequent generations now carrying their legacy forward. Survivor testimony remains at the heart of this work — not only offering participants the chance to learn from and engage with survivors directly, but also deepening understanding in ways no other form of education can.

The Symposium provides approximately 40 hours of instruction, discussions, demonstrations, and public programs designed for teachers, students, and the community. Teachers who complete all forty hours can receive 4 CEUs.

Feel the energy in a vibrant celebration of love, diversity, and everything that makes us human.

“Companies like Complexions are game-changing: they’re forging a path for what ballet can be instead of what it historically has been.” —The Guardian

“If there is one thing that Complexions knows how to do well (and, let’s be honest, they do many things quite well), it’s their choreographic exploration of rock ‘n’ roll and popular music.” —Hollywood Soapbox

Set in a stunning 18-foot dress, this production by playwright Sylvia Milo ushers you into a world of opulence and delight – obscured by restriction and prejudice. The music score brings Nannerl’s musical imagination to life using clavichords, music boxes, teacups, and fluttering fans. Inspired by the Mozart family’s hilarious and heartbreaking letters, this other Mozart at last tells her story.

*This show contains mature thematic elements and mild adult language.

Praised for his “melodic precision, harmonic erudition, and elegant restraint” (The New York Times), Diehl is increasingly recognized as a singular voice whose work moves freely across genres while remaining grounded in historical awareness. He has worked extensively with figures such as Tyshawn Sorey, Timo Andres, Philip Glass, and Cécile McLorin Salvant, forging projects that span concerti, chamber music, orchestral works, and jazz performance. In 2023, Diehl was named as the Artistic Director of 92NY’s Jazz in July Festival, succeeding the legendary Bill Charlap. Program selections (subject to change) include: From the Southland, Harry T. Burleigh; Troubled Waters, Margaret Bonds; St. Martin de Porres, Mary Lou Williams arr. A.
