SUMMARY:CSUN Opera: Threepenny Opera and The Old Maid and the Thief
DESCRIPTION:CSUN OPERA\nShigemi Matsumoto Recital Hall \nThursday – Friday – Saturday\, April 3-5 at 7:30 PM\, and Sunday April 6th at 2:30 PM \nThe Threepenny Opera by Kurt Weill with libretto by Bertolt Brecht\nand \nThe Old Maid and the Thief by Gian Carlo Menotti\n\n\nDylan F. Thomas – Stage Director \nDr. Alexander Landsburgh & Dr. John Roscigno – Music Directors \nDr. Hugo Vera – Producer \n  \nWe have a compelling production lined up for the spring of 2025! By juxtaposing Bertolt Brecht and Kurt Weill’s “The Threepenny Opera” with Gian Carlo Menotti’s “The Old Maid and the Thief\,” we are setting the stage for a rich exploration of themes that resonate with today’s societal issues. \nThe 1950s setting adds a fascinating layer of complexity\, as it was a time characterized by strict gender roles and a burgeoning sense of individualism. While “The Threepenny Opera” critiques the capitalist system and the moral decay it engenders\, it also invites viewers to reflect on the marginalized voices within that system—especially the women who grapple with their desires and societal constraints. This period of transition can serve as an apt backdrop for discussing how those old societal constructs of gender and power remain relevant. \nMenotti’s libretto in “The Old Maid and the Thief” amplifies the exploration of gender dynamics and moral ambiguity\, diving into the darker sides of human nature\, particularly those associated with women. The line referenced\, “The devil couldn’t do what a woman can – make a thief out of an honest man\,” speaks volumes to the theme of power—specifically\, the power dynamics between genders and the societal roles that dictate morality. \nBy choosing these operas\, we are not just exploring narratives of betrayal\, corruption\, and love; we’re also lifting the veil on the complexities of female agency during this era. The compelling contrast of traditional roles against the backdrop of personal desires and societal expectations will resonate with contemporary audiences. \nIt will be a thought-provoking and engaging experience for our audience. \n\n  \nSuggested Parking via Kiosks in Lot B1 \nTICKETS: $10 to $22

Satterlee has played concerts at the new Romanian-American Festival in Romania\, the World Piano Conference in Serbia and at the Interlochen Arts Center in the United States. He was a featured performer at the Piano Plus Festival and the Summer Piano Institute in Greece and has also performed in Sweden\, Holland\, Germany\, Thailand and Kenya. He has been heard in radio broadcasts throughout the United States\, most notably on Minnesota Public Radio and WFMT in Chicago. \nMusic of our time plays an important role in Satterlee’s performing activity\, and he has given premieres of several works. In June of 2004 he was invited to perform at the Music04 festival in Cincinnati\, where he shared a program with the composer and pianist Frederic Rzewski. In 2006 he toured the US with a program of the composer’s works\, including a new piece specially written for the tour\, and has released a CD of his works on the Naxos label. The CD has garnered glowing reviews\, and was selected by the New York Times as one of the outstanding classical recordings of 2014. His most recent CD\, with music of Rzewski and William Albright\, was released on the Blue Griffin label February 2015. \nSatterlee’s avid interest in chamber music has led him to collaborate with members of the Chicago\, London\, Philadelphia and Detroit Symphony Orchestras in chamber music performances\, and he was co-artistic director of Chamber Music Quad Cities\, an organization presenting a concert series and music festival in Iowa and Illinois. \nSatterlee was appointed in the fall of 1998 to the piano faculty of Bowling Green State University in Ohio. He teaches at the Interlochen Arts Camp in the summer. He has been awarded prizes in many competitions\, among them honors in the St. Louis Symphony Young Artists Competition. He holds degrees in piano from Yale University\, Peabody Conservatory\, and the University of Missouri-Kansas City Conservatory of Music. \n  \nParking via Kiosks in Lot B1\nTICKETS: $10 to $22\nLEARN MORE ABOUT ROBERT SATTERLEE

SUMMARY:National Poetry Month: Shaping Poetry Using InDesign
DESCRIPTION:The University Library is proud to present a workshop for National Poetry Month. \nPoetry can come in many different forms and functions. Join us with Professor Sean Pessin from the College of the Humanities as we explore the intersection between technology and poetry. In this workshop you will learn to shape a poem into a unique work using Adobe’s InDesign software to typeset a poem\, and give it a new life of its own. \nThere are a limited number of spots available\, so it is first come first serve. Using InDesign on our lab computers does require you have a CSUN login\, so we are only able to offer this workshop to students\, staff and faculty. \nPlease RSVP at https://library.csun.edu/events/shaping-poetry to reserve your spot today!
