Bloomsburg University’s Chamber Orchestra will perform Erik Satie's Gymnopedies Sunday, Oxt. 28, at 2:30 p.m. in St. Matthew Lutheran Church, 123 N. Market St., Bloomsburg.
Well, they'll also perform Bach/Cailliet's Fugues in G Minor "Little Lamb," Telemann's Don Quixote Suite, Jacob's Concerto for Horn and Bach/Stokowski's Ein' Fest Burg. But the Gymnopedies are a favorite of mine ... so very simple and elegant. — EGF.
The featured soloist will be Christiana Smith on horn. Admission, naturally, is free.
The Gymnopedies were written in the late 19th century, but for all their simplicity, they (and Satie in general) have cast a long shadow. Wikipedia's entry on Satie helpfully points out some of the very unexpected places where his works have turned up, including this track by Lana Del Rey ... at the very end.
The Italian film, Bread and Tulips, will be shown Thursday, Oct. 25, at 7 p.m. in Bloomsburg University’s McCormick Center, room 2303, as part of the Gender Studies Minor Foreign Film Series. The film tells the story of a middle-aged mother who hitchhikes to Venice where she falls in love with a lonely Icelandic poet and rediscovers joy for life. Admission is free.
BU’s Haunted Husky Hollow will be open from 7 to 10 p.m. Thursday and Friday, Oct. 25 and 26, at the Quest woods. Admission is free, but donations will be accepted for Trick or Treat for UNICEF. Contact George Kinzel in Residence Life, gkinzel@bloomu.edu, for information.
An exhibit of drawings, paintings and installations by artist Sky Kim will open Tuesday, Oct. 30, with a reception from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. and gallery talks at 11:15 a.m. and 1:15 p.m. in Bloomsburg University’s Haas Gallery of Art. The exhibit will remain on display and open to the public free of charge through Nov. 27. Gallery hours are 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Monday through Friday and noon to 2 p.m. Saturday.
