Butler students, faculty, staff, and the Indianapolis community are invited to attend: The Sea Is Calm Tonight: A Centennial Celebration of the Music of Samuel Barber, a lecture-recital which will be presented on the main floor of Irwin Library in the “Collaborative Learning Spaces” (southwest) quadrant at 5:00 PM this coming Sunday, November 14th. This lecture-recital is a sponsored program of Provost Comstock’s Waters Project.
The program will include performances of Barber’s Dover Beach and Adagio for Strings presented by Dr. Kyle Ferrill, Visiting Assistant Professor of Voice, and four Jordan College of Fine Arts School of Music students: Carla Black, Mary Webber, David Platt, and Katie Burns. Dr. Wayne Wentzel, JCFA Professor Emeritus and author of Samuel Barber: A Guide to Research (Routledge) and The Adagio of Samuel Barber (in preparation for Pendragon Press), will provide background information on Barber and give a brief talk about his new book on Barber’s Adagio. Sheridan Stormes, Butler Libraries Performing and Fine Arts Librarian, will open the program by reading and briefly reflecting on two poems: “Dover Beach” by Matthew Arnold and “The Wave” (taken from Virgil’s Georgics and translated) by Robert Pinsky.
A reception during which conversations can continue about Barber, Dover Beach, and The Adagio will immediately follow the lecture and performances in the “Collaborative Learning Spaces.”
