Currently, only 13 percent of the historical figures in history textbooks are women. Why does this matter? As one teacher put it, in his response to our national survey: “You can’t be what you can’t see.” Girls and young women make up more than half of K-12 students and college undergraduates. If women are considered...

#Declassified: “Alban Berg in the Library’s Collection”
Saturday, February 22, 2020 at 11:00 AM
LECTURE

Kazem Abdullah, Music Division

1925. The year that Concerts from the Library of Congress was founded and also the year that Alban Berg’s Wozzeck was first performed. The significance of Wozzeck lies in its success in connecting with its audience and delivering social messages in a most striking and contemporary manner. The Library of Congress is fortunate to hold the manuscript of this enduring masterpiece. This #Declassified lecture will examine how the innovative atonal music, classical forms and their allusions, musical symbolism, leitmotifs, and avant garde compositional techniques produce a musical expression powerful enough to capture the complexity, social messages, and emotions in the text. Do not miss this rare chance to see Berg’s manuscript and delve deeper into this transcendent opera.

For the Peace of Your Mind

By jamanetwork.com
Published On :: Tue, 05 May 2020 00:00:00 GMT

We hasten to assure our readers that a piece of my mind...is not intended as a sounding board for peevish gripes, nit-picking beefs, or sundry assortments of righteous indignation, which are usually prefaced by an angry “let me give you a piece of my mind.” Nor is this section of The Journal meant to be a podium for pompous preachments and ex cathedra pronouncements. Nor again is it designed to be a forum for half-baked speculations and warmed-over hypotheses. Least of all is a piece of my mind envisaged as a jamboree of jokes and a shivaree of limericks.
