SUMMARY:Early Global Caribbean: Conference 3: Materialities
DESCRIPTION:Conference organized by Carla Gardina Pestana (University of California\, Los Angeles) and Gabriel de Avilez Rocha (Brown University) \nCo-sponsored by the Joyce Appleby Endowed Chair of America in the World \nThe tangible realities of daily life and the patterns of exchange in the Caribbean and the other Atlantic regions integrated into the Caribbean’s orbit enhance our understanding of the local dimensions of global processes that have long shaped the Caribbean Basin. This final conference will consider how the region’s early global histories may be tracked through their material manifestations in constructed and natural environments from a variety of different disciplinary perspectives. Focusing on the materials embedded and moving through Caribbean land- and waterscapes prompts lines of investigation about how historical interactions and social constructions of meaning were mediated across different historical moments. These interactions and constructions can be explored through physical artifacts\, objects\, and living organisms. We will deliberate on how both the environment itself and the material cultural productions of the people living in the Basin were profoundly and continuously influenced by the advent of different groups\, the imposition of new agricultural regimes\, and a host of other aspects of quotidian life that persisted\, gained new forms\, or disappeared. To what extent might the historical study of transformations in the circumstances of life in the Caribbean benefit from considering distributed agencies of different human and non-human actors across time? What do considerations of materiality in or beyond traditional archives contribute to a global understanding of Caribbean history? \nPlease visit the website for a complete list of speakers and the program schedule.

SUMMARY:Chamber Music at the Clark 30th Anniversary presents Borromeo String Quartet
DESCRIPTION:Concert presented in honor of Bruce Whiteman \nEach visionary performance of the award-winning Borromeo String Quartet strengthens and deepens its reputation as one of the most important ensembles of our time. Admired and sought after for both its fresh interpretations of the classical music canon and its championing of works by twentieth- and twenty-first-century composers\, the ensemble has been hailed for its “edge-of-the-seat performances” by the Boston Globe\, which called it “simply the best.” \nThe group recently premiered new works written for it by Sebastian Currier and Aaron Jay Kernis at recitals at Carnegie Hall\, Shriver Concerts\, and the Tippet Rise Art Center. The ensemble continues to perform violinist Nicholas Kitchen’s transcriptions of Bach’s Goldberg Variations and the Well-Tempered Clavier Bk. I\, the latter of which the BSQ recently released as an acclaimed premiere recording which hit the billboard charts. \nFurther details and the complete program are on the website.
